I have no interest in such things and my sparring is just fine. Fortunately enough my street fights have gone in my favor. Really that's all that matters to me. Wing Chun in the cage or cross training or whatever.......................
For your average WC practitioner to think that he can walk from a WC school into a cage fight and expect to succeed is absurd. People would need to train like hell for such things.
There will be many competent fighters in the world that have never stepped in a ring or cage in their lives. I think the whole argument is stupid.
