    I was a full contact fighter back in the day and we have students who fight today. Keith Mazza is also a fighter.

    I think William should adapt a low profile, do seminars and stop making videos. He's already a millionaire (should be anyways), why do more damage to his image?

    Keith M could probably fight without any sort of MA training, what is he 6'2" 250lbs mininum?? Plus he's Italian, that's enough

    He wouldn't be able to block those punches either, but the sheep that follow him believe every word that comes out of his mouth, he is the "Master's Master" you know

    charp and ping choy can look like jab and crosses,
    cup choy,sow choy and so choy can look like overhands and wider hooks
    gwa choy, well, looks like gwa choy...
    so CLF, Hung-Ga can look like kickboxing, but with a different..flavor.
    The other thing is in CLF and HG, most fighters will relentlessly attack until they have to be pulled off their opponent. Stick and move isn't really what we like to do, unless faced with a bigger adversary. Then it's crane and leopard mentality-evade, stick and move, THEN attack relentlessly.
    (When I mention the animals, it is not in a larper sense, but that there are mental tactics and fighting techniques as sociated with them. You don't have to peck to be using crane, but evade like a matador.It's just the terms we use. Technique is technique)

    Sterotypical CLF and HK with gloves would look like Tyson or Marciano or Louis.
    In the MMA world, Anderson Silva, Fedor and Couture would be good examples.

    hate to admit it, but he's right. There just aren't enough Hung Kuen guys out there doing it. There are a few, and even in the midst of the MMA craze, TCMA schools are growing, so it's a matter of time I suppose.
