Here's a new one, Master Pan Qing Fu vs. Master Chan Poi

[Dragon Warrior]

Both are considered kung fu masters.
Both are legends in the kung fu community.
Both are around the same weight, height, and age.

Master Pan has his ironfist
Master Chan has his plum flower post training.

All i really know about them is what i have seen on discover channel.

So who would win and why???

My money goes with ironfist because he just seems like he is more of a fighter.

Religion is like a prison for the seekers of wisdom. (killa priest)

[thekuntawman]

i think pan ching will kick chan poi ass. :D

[shaolinboxer]

I think they would both get injured.

Master Chan Pui's style is Wah Lum Tam Tui Northern Praying Mantis Kung Fu. He's responsible for bringing the style to the U.S. and spreading the teachings.

I don't know the other gentleman, but I'm will to wager that there's more to him than what was on the discover channel, and it would be an even match.

have to agree...and while i don't know a whole lot about Chan Poi, but Pan Qing Fu...wasn't he employed by goverment agencies to take out gangs? this cat has YEARS of not only training, but USING his training to WHOOP A$$ in very real life threating situations, and has come out on top, obviously, cuz he's still alive...if anyone knows how to effectively take someone out, he would.

Pan Qing Fu would be favored in my mind, just because I've heard more about his training methods. I think he'd win an empty handed match.

but if it was a weapons fight, and Chan Poi was allowed to choose the weapon, I think he'd win :)

What's going on?
Pan Qing Fu is one of my Fav's.
Let's look for colorful analogy...
hmm...
Rolls is to Pan Qing Fu
as dishwater is to Bacardi Spice
.....
Master Pan is the 6th deadly Venom
Is for Real
....
...light bulb...
Rolls...would you like to challenge MasterPan?
He's not too far from you.

On the meihua poles, Chan Poi.

On the ground, Pan Qing Fu.

[CLFNole]

This is so ridiculous. Unless any of you have seen either one fight to make a guess as to who would win a fight is foolish.

Someone sees a picture of P. Chan on the plum flower posts and figures he must be an expert fighter on those. Others see Master Pan beat his hands on the metal plate and have heard the stories of his so-called gang-busting days.

Unless someone has actually seen either of the two engage in an actual fight than you cannot make a decision. You may see them show forms but for all those out there who don't already know this forms and real fighting are not the same.

Just my two cents.

Peace.

[HuangKaiVun]

It's fun to speculate.

If this is foolish, so is the stock market.

[Shaolin36]

I would guess Pan Ching due to the simple fact the Chinese Government contracted him to teach his martial arts and to bring down some of the most notorious Triad members in the early 1900's.

Just a gues of course.

early 1900's???
He's not that old. :)

"Don't worry...it's only a broken arm"
Master Pan creating his own English lesson in "Iron and Silk"

Where does the the Pan guy live? I would happily shatter the false unrealistic image surrounding master pan.

Someone said he was close to me? I'll fight him.

[Shaolin36]

Let's see he's about 70-80yrs old right now. that would put him in the early 40's to 50's, ok maybe mid 1900's. Sorry I meant 1900's as in 1940's,1950's, exct....
