    KF,

    Would you say that trained grappling is purposeful in exploiting the untrained responses in opponents? Is the training geared to apply certain kinds of pressure to provoke those untrained responses?

    Yes.

    One of the first things you learn in a BJJ class is the spinning arm bar from the mount. You put pressure on the opponent and get him to push up as he tries to get you off, thus setting up the arm bar.

    Punches from the mount are designed to get the opponent to turn his back to you.

    There are a variety of other techniques designed to do the same typs of things.

    Ou Ji,
    Kicking and punching are pretty basic things, too. However, I don't surmise that the technical aspects of real kung fu are really about kicking and punchin. I would imagine that they center around the technical aspects of gaining an advantage over your opponent then delivering a punch, kick, throw, sweep, or whatever. The same holds true for grappling, or San Shou, or Muy Thai, or Greco Wrestling, et alit.

    HKS, you don't seem like a very smart person. Just another internet loudmouth, so I have added you to my ignore list. No need to reply on Ou Ji's behalf.

    SevenStar: It's hilarious seeing people's reactions when they see a big, black dude with a sword walking toward them.

    Masterkiller: Especially when they're at the ATM.

    WTF? How did we go from the White Haired Devil strangling and beating guys to death in a teahouse, to Mr Miyagi and Jhoon Rhee?

    Ah. Now I remember why I hated Hawai'i. And Kanaks.

    Ok so we saw a random crime, I'm sure the guy who got his ass kicked has a good law suit since it's all on tape. This is the kind of thing I think we all train for. To fend off thugs like that.

    That's why you don't wander around in Hawai'i, unless you are in a group. Ewa Beach is particularly bad.

    When I was stationed at Schofield Barracks, we used to go out and surf on the weekends. We were fighting the Kanaks -every- time. Having a Battalion picnic, complete with kids and wives? In they come. Provost Marshal hated it.

    Unemployed thug trash. Consider the beaches (oh, and roads) to belong to them. Loathe Servicemen

    Notice how the guy in black tells the Surfer to let go of his buddy (so his buddy can continue punching) or he'll break his nose? Pretty much par for the course. You will not win solo.

    gus,

    samoans fun loving? ha! only when it comes to other samoans.

    but those are some tough ass people, not forgetting that they almost always outweight everyone. booyaa tribe sucka.

    but another polynesian group ---tongans---are also tough as hell.

    I used to be a crip in the WCC which is all samoan, and also the Tongan Crip Gangsters which started in L.A. and brought to SF.

    there was a samoan gang in SF called AKA (Always Kicking Ass) and were notorious. i recall one kid who was told that AKA was after him and he hung himself the very same day.

    fun loving he says.

    I used have a Samoan girl friend and I don't know abou kicking ass but her body was ass kicking. Anyway I know what you meant her family was certainly rough around the collar.

    Her brothers tested me out the first time I met them, once I got their respect then they were cool after that.
