Questions for Graham

[guy b.]

Of course I don't. That's because it is either non-existent or you are too afraid of negative criticism to put any evidence that would support the fact that you might spar.

Lol at the idea of anyone caring enough about what you think to provide you with footage of sparring. You are the last person that anyone would provide with sparring footage.

[guy b.]

You mean you have not seen evidence of it, not that there isn't. But who cares? Focus on your own training. I'll do mine.

You think he trains?

Are you reading what I write? Didn't say where to position it height-wise. It's not a position. It's an action. The range of Shawn's action was too low. When PB showed it to him it was in motion, not stuck up as a block in a certain position. There was no position to speak of. Get it?

OK Graham. I'm not trying to keep this dumb discussion going. But I couldn't NOT respond to this post from LFJ. But this is my last on this thread. I promise!

So LFJ....I think you need to go back and watch that clip again. PB stopped Obasi...made him pause in mid-air....and adjusted the height and therefore position of his Bong Sau....statically....not moving....even reached out and repositioned Obasi's arm....more than once if I recall. So no. I don't get it. You defy common sense. Its pretty obvious that there WAS a position to speak of. When something moves it goes through of series of positions. Action is just a multitude of points in time (and therefore positions) set into motion.

Now I'm done. Despite any ridiculous responses you may still have in mind.

Bong-sau is not applied as in SNT, as a block to stick up into a particular position. Hope you can understand there is no fixed position of bong-sau as many use it. It can be done at any level where needed to function. There are not two high bong and low bong positions. If all you got from PB's exchange with Obasi is a proper position of bong-sau you missed the point. If you are fixated on a particular position of bong-sau you may end up with very sore ribs, or face. Bong-sau is only a particular type of action with the elbow.
