Most don't have good takedown avoidance, b/c the people who do it are other kungfu guys with crappy takedown skills. The MMA guys are generally correct on this issue. I've seen great takedowns at my kungfu school, but nothing as fluid and with as smooth transitions in troubleshooting the shoot as I did when I was taking BJJ.

That is becasue they don't work them, as the focus has been striking for so long. All the tools ARE there, you just need to develop them.

You are right, the quality of the takedowns is not there either, and that must be addressed too. Again, the tools are there, but just not worked enough to be on the same level as a BJJ school.

The problem has to do with Kung Fu teachers focusing on only half thier arsenal for so long that the other half has become rusty. BJJ has the same problem with thier striking.
