Another rant...

[Zeddy]

I've sparred a wcer or two. Ones I'd rate higher came in with chain punching or at least body driven punches. The ones who didn't... I wasn't sure whether they were sparring or slapping.

Not insinuating manchuria here, just in case he's reading this an wondering. ;)

[WhiteShark]

I'd say, "Wow Tenokage, you been training with my girlfriend?!"

[SLJ]

The spinning hook kick is hidden in th3 d34dl3y Aikido secrets, damn it !

[Te No Kage!]

You know, to be serious for ten seconds, I've never seen WCers fight and don't know anything about WC so where's the disconnect? What's the big difference between what they train and what they fight? 3,2,1, whew, didn't think I'd make it.......

You'd say "Wow, Tenokage, I didn't know you could kick like that!" and I'd say "Of course! Didn't you know that I'm part Portuguese!"

Wing Chun dosnt look like Wing Chun because the person kept trying to fight rather than learning the style some styles just look closer to plain fighting.

EH ???
Judo looks like judo all the time, GJJ, looks like jujutsu all the time, even TKD looks like TKD, but wing chun ???
And don't tell me "its there, you just can't see it", leave that to the ninjas, ok?

IF you practise a system a certain way, and it looks NOTHING like the way you practise when you fight, what's up with that ??

And while I am on it, if the two top practioners of Wing Chun, or Wing Tsun, or Ving Tsun, Fried chicken wing chun, DIDN'T look like they were doing Wing CHun when THEY fought, what does THAT say about the system? or at the very least, about those two hams ??

And this goes for EVERY system that train one way and fight another, heck, if an aikido guy ko'd someone with a spinning hook kick, would you say" "nice irimi nage" ??

This new allusion is here to stay and sure to become a mainstay of Bullshido jargon......

Viva la Wheelie de Morte!

Good rant, Ronin! I will tell you the same thing I tell lots of people: thanks for the clarity!

Your thoughts are so scattered that it's like you didn't even read most of what Ronin wrote. Your input about WT and TKD were especially incomprehensible. The TKD stuff that Ronin said had nothing to do with the guy you named, and your WT comment made no sense whatsoever, especially when you are talking about some styles not looking like fighting.

If a martial art is really about fighting, how can it NOT look like fight . . . WTF.

Translation please? :mad:

Did you just say someone should have been learning the style while fighting?

MMA , what the fuck is that ?????

LOL


MMA = fighting people from other styles and discovering:

a) you are monsterously unfit from your traditional training
b) that whatever style people do they start off sparring much the same, i.e. very very badly
c) people from shit styles can still beat you up
d) fighting men in lycra has no dignity

And that someone is Portuguese!

no no the Portuguese were beaten by the Greeks ho ho
