Where's all the Full-contact Kung-fu???

Seriously, I'm still waiting for footage of an art other than Tai Chi to be posted winning a fight other than one where the Baji proponent horribly outclasses his opponent in size and strength. I know it exists.

Honestly, it will be hard. Most sanda schools have 3 or four different arts being taught. So, you can't exclusively say hey thats pure xingyi there or whatever art.

I'll keep looking.

As mentioned, though, I do have a video of an old match against a shuai jiao guy. Be nice, I'd only been practicing throwing for a few months.

****, how do you embed video again?

This embed doesnt seem to be playing, mind posting a link?

P.S. The first round is boring.

Dig the takedown at 4:28. looked like the cleanest one of the bunch.

Dude in blue sure slowed down circa the 3 minute mark.

Stupid Tai Chi fighters with all the fight clips.

I'll see if I can dig up my original post later for a better description. What happened was they looked at me like I had poop in my pants when I told them I did tai chi. I'm pretty sure that the guy I fought was all like "Hurr! I'mma kick me some chai ti ass!" But all that work plumb tuckered him out!

Ohh that takedown. I assumed you'd be talking about the big throw. That, my dear, is the answer to an outer-reap with no off-set. I teach that one to guys at BJJ as a first "throw" because it's so common at a beginner level and so easy to counter.

TAI CHI CHUAN MEANS 'GRAND ULTIMATE FIST' IN CHINESE. NOW YOU KNOW WHY, SHAOLIN CLAN. NOW YOU KNOW WHY.

Heeyyyy... didn't we ask for THIS EXACT THREAD like a year ago and all you jerks were like "FIND THE VIDEOS YOURSELVES, ASSHOLE!"

Nice videos, guys :)

I think I actually did that to a girl at NAGA. She tried to go behind my leg and hook it but I had stronger base and just took her right down like you did there.

Edit: haha, ashly just reminded me that when that happened I took the girl down really hard and made a big boom, appologized instantly and then proceeded to take mount as she said no problem.
