    Park Bok Nam Top Student Fighting

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QhOQq-n32yk

    Looks limitted with no face blows. It did look a little sloppy, but I understand it's hard to look good in a stomach hitting content. He had decent footwork. It's funny. I saw a still picture of this clip in Bok Nam's book, and I always imagined the fight a bit less restricted.

    The picture in Park's book shows the black guy wearing the light color, and the asian guy wearing the dark color.

    Either way, it's the same guy. I don't get the gloves either. Why even bother...

    This tournament has taken place in the 1980's in Taipei, Taiwan and it was a sort of national kuoshu tournament. The black was an american soldier student of PBN in Korea. His experience hardly reached - at the time of the tournament - 12 months of practice. He is not G. Wright.

    Odd. So he is a student of Park at least.

    Also, are we to believe that Glen Wright's tourney's were less restricted where the same exact garb was worn?

    I wasn't knocking Park at all. I have actually trained with Park personally before and regularly with a student group of his. I'll refrain from comment on my time spent there. I do think Park has some real skill...

    I wonder if his opponent died of liquified organs after.

    why should you suppose things? find someone who was there and get a detailed report..

    you opened a thread on this video and I wrote the comments of Mr. PBN on it.
    I wonder if his opponent died of liquified organs after.
    I doubt it! at least after only 12 months training...

    It was the 80's. Who gives a ****.
    "Let your rapidity be that of the wind, your compactness that of the forest.
    In raiding and plundering be like fire, in immovability like a mountain.
    Let your plans be dark and impenetrable as night, and when you move, fall like a thunderbolt." - Sun Tzu
