    When I first used it I did feel a bit awkward and exposed, but that was because I was used to something else. They always say VT is an unnatural way of fighting, but it effectively performs its intended function.
    Im not bagging it, far from it.

    But, whilst it makes defense easier for the opponent, it does make the attack more predictable for the other guy.

    It still depends on what the opponent does. Many times people will try to remove or otherwise deal with the lead hand first by coming on the outside of it. If you watch closely, it happened several times in the original post with different responses in each case.

    To you maybe, I find it impressive. Until you face the power and speed relentlessly ..... It looks easy doesn't it ?

    Um, I don't even understand why you would ask me such a question.
    Is this what you want to hear: "yes Kev, literally 100's of videos all showing the same bong lap looping drills are SOO impressive and difficult. I can't fathom how they are able to even do it... "


    haha, ok, I'll stop poking fun. Happy drilling!

    When I think of relentless power and speed my mind goes more to this kind of stuff rather than the bong lap drills:

    LOLOLOL... that was really funny. I read this at work and the guy sitting next me thinks I'm crazy just laughing at my screen.

    Wayfaring, Gamboa is amazingly fast. The other guys all are too, but he really surprised me. I've only seen him fight once, need to watch out for him in the future!

    But that's boxing : ) as much as I like it , it's trading punches not intercepting.
