    Actually i think going forward was the tall guys problem.

    Every punch he throws is after he has moved forward, negating his range advantage and , more importantly i think, putting himself into the shorter fighters range...... the result of which was obvious for all to see.

    He should have established his range, particularly with his jab, and then worked on his kicks which didn't seem to bad.

    Having said that, good shot by the other guy

    Along with trying to dominate centreline and firing hooks, body shots, jabs and uppercuts.

    However, not as evolved as this because I don't have all his skills: http://darkwingchun.wordpress.com/20...sao-evolution/

    didn't see an ounce of anything in the clip other than basic level MT and boxing. The guy who lost lost because he got dazed and ended up going back in a straight line and dropping his hands allowing the bigger puncher to keep unloading. No shame in it but equally absolutely nothing to do with trying to attack up the centre,

    umm its weng chun not wing chun, which i believe is different and doesnt just attack the centre, it should have probably been put in the southern arts forum but hey atleast it sounds like wing chun

    I wasn't referring to his style rather the preceeding posts. I've seen a reasonable amount of Mr Hoffmann's stuff and fwiw didn't see a great deal of that in the clip.

    Doesn’t Hoffmans stuff also include long arm strikes, as well as normal straight punches? Been a while since I watched it but I do remember he used circular strikes when appropriate
    I agree it looked like basic boxing and MT, not that that’s a bad thing but I haven’t seen much of weng chun in action with gloves on, maybe this is how they look
    At least the guy was out there testing himself and he won

    Well you dont see really much in the fight. I mean it was a short exchange of punches, defense work and then Sven got him..

    Here you can see some other example of Weng Chun Fights on these channels. Some of them a starters, some have already gained some experience in Fights and some even gained their first titles like Sven did as German National and European Sanda Champion.


    Kind regards,
