Adrian, why do you have so many asterisks in your post?
how much were you paid by the number 8 and his shifty pal?

Which probably means it never happened.
Pro fighters get paid to fight and if you wanna fight one, then put up the cash.
It was probably one of those many stories we here, that's all.

Helio Gracie also challenged louis and it never happened. Louis is a prizefighter not a pridefighter. You have to pay to play

Anyway. the old time jab is similar in structure(although not exact) to the chop choi. It's also similar to the straight lead used in JKD more so than the jab in boxing. A good book on the subject is "the jkd straight lead" by Terri Tom.
