The second problem is that the student is not doing anything outside the realm of WSLVT. So it is a very artificial set up because if you ever had to fight, it is doubtful it would be against another skilled Wing Chun guy. So it really doesn't highlight what Michael Kurth can do against a more typical fighter. Now I think Michael Kurth is really good! There are some impressive things in the clip. I just wouldn't call it real sparring.
