Most karate is just butchered southern crane. The stuff that isn't so butchered mostly IS southern crane.Originally Posted by Oso
bwaa, there is no real difference between karate and kung fu, or anything else, if whoever is teaching it hasn't piled too much BS on top of it all.
just a better man...for now

You didn't have an "I believe it cause I've seen 'M' spar" option so I was stuck with the reverse psych bs option. I'm going to try to get back down there February of March. My weekends have been preety filled up lately, but after our last sparring session I've got the itch to get back down there and get my arse handed to me some more. Fun way to learn.

oops, didn't even think about that. next week will be the last week of boxing only. the toughman is the week after. then we'll go back to general rules.
btw, a student of Bob's came to spar saturday. the same teen who entered the tournament last Feb. (tall kid, dreads) he did very well. he sparred with me and M and two of my other students and basically handled business.

It's simpler than you think.

I know the guy you're talking about and if he did well, then he is showing improvement from the last time I saw him. Good, I hope that more from Bob's school make it out there.
mambi
and my ass on the floor ("Got nothing to win so got nothing to loose )" How about an A.A.R.P handicap ?
Haoli
yea, he did very well. he only said a couple of silly things that I just said 'that may be true but it's definitely debatable.'
i do hope that more of his folks come out. it's good for my folks to work with others outside our group as well. they've had some decent experience against karate type folks but the more the better.
just hollar when you think you'll be over. i don't anticipate not being here on a saturday till mid/late Apr so we'll be here.

Bah! What will it take to live that down!!!At least you didn't video yourself falling out of the ring.

LOL, i like the way a couple of people I've never even heard of on this forum think i'm a big fatass...truth withstanding...
ok, i'll see if M will be ok with video taping.
then ya'll can see how bad a boxer I am.

Oso, maybe it's something subconscious<sp?> and has to do with your avatar?
Haoli
????????????
oh, wait, i get you.
i've tried other avatars a while back but have kept to the walking bear by popular demand.
personally, i think it's one of the cooler avatars round here.

It's just too bad we're limited to such a small area.
Now not even GDA can claim to have brought such unbridled horror to the forum.
