From what I've read, Jeet Kune Do has a total of no more than 13 techniques, and although concentration leads to better results, why would you take such an art if your so utterly rigid?

What the **** have you read?

STFU newb

What about boxing ?

No more than 5 punches. VERY effective fighting system.

Bruce Lee’s Jeet Kune Do

Downloaded it from kazaa. there's also THE POWER OF THE DRAGON, and various things that dan inosanto has written.

Boxers get destroyed in the ufc.

So what Eifis. Pure Muay Thai fighters get destroyed in the UFC. Are you saying Muay Thai is not effective.

Boxers who DO NOT cross train in other martial arts get destroyed. Boxing is by far the superior art as far as punching only is concerned. I'm willig to wager many UFC fighters have taken boxing as part of their training regime.

The same way as many Judo guys have cross trained in other martial arts.

Hey JKD Chick. Was that remark of yours directed at me. If it was please explain what you meant AND how I was wrong.

No, no, the guy who started the thread is Matthius. I just thought y'all should know before you wasted more time.

Also, I just banned him.

****, I just had my wisdom teeth out, I'm kinda groggy from the pain. Not thinking clearly, my apologies.

PURE boxers get destroyed, people with a very strong base in boxing and with some wrestling aren't bad.

Come on Neo, stop trying to hit me! We don't do that here.

What's pathetic is that when people see a pure MA get destroyed in any type of event of UFC,Pride FC, and etc... They think that it's not effective, The only reason why is this is because every practitioner is diffrent that the way they train it's justn that in the UFC, Many crosstrain between arts to get a more rounded fighting background and this kind of nonsense on Boxing getting destroyed in the UFC is pathetic, I also agree...Boxing is the supeirior art for Punching.

Firstly because they dont like getting hit.

Secondly because they practice an art to d34dly to spar with that has been banned from the UFC. (I did actualy here this reason from both dim mak guys and tai kwan do one hit kills guys).
