Cung Le(kung fu) in UFC?

[Anna Kovacs]

Yeh? did he beat someones ass with that technique? Certainly doing kung fu and being able to fight are not mutually exclusive, but that doesnt mean that they're closely related either.

I trained to fight in san shou at my kung fu school.

Kung Fu was the base on which my training was built on. Every san shou fighter I have met has practised kung fu as well, but I only know a handful.

Hey hold on a second, isnt this redundant?

Here we have a kung fu person referring to kung fu and san shou as seperate practices and yet I've been recently informed that only muay thai people do that.

Beaton.. San Shou is China's version of Muay Thai. After a bunch of Chinese Kung Fu "experts" kept getting their asses beat by the Thai fighters they woke up and tried to make an art that would be effective against Muay Thai. That's how San Shou was born.

I never claimed that San Shou wasn't an adapted form of Kung Fu. Obviously it is. You won't see San Shou fighters doing a lot of **** that is taught in traditional Kung Fu. That doesn't change the fact that their moves are all derived from Kung Fu and that Kung Fu is the foundation upon which the style is built.

[Anna Kovacs]

Yes and JJJ is the far removed foundation on which BJJ is built, to bad JJJ sucks.

Well of course not. But the technique he used IS a Kung Fu technique. As are most of his techniques.

BTW Beaton I was talking to you.. This is the history of Muay Thai VS Kung Fu.

in that kung fu has a round kick, just like every fucking striking style out there

What's your point?

Are you still trying to argue that San Shou isn't Kung Fu, or are you just trying to argue?

I know that. I responded to your original post. What I said there still applies.
