Saw some weapon vids posted which I think were intended to make the point that WC is about more than just empty hand. But I don't see any reason their weapons training should be held to a different standard than their empty hand. How does it do sparring? How would it fair against HEMA in sparring, or Dog Brothers/FMA in sparring? Is it realistic? Does it work? Those questions are just as legit as asking how (empty hand) WC does in MMA or kickboxing.

Video of a WC in K1 not fairing so well

Oh man, don't hate. He did pretty good.

Are their any WC wins in K1?
I have seen TDK win in K1.
TDK > WC?

Another good (underrated, overlooked) video.

In conclusion, Muay Thai > All

Remember all you need to go FULL Muay Boran Badass is watch Ong Bak 2 a couple times*.































































*assuming you're already a fully Muay Thai trained pro MMA fighter already.

I don't think any discussion about trapping is complete without a mention of Muangthai PK Saenchai Muay Thai Gym, 2014 fighter of the year and Channel 7 stadium super featherweight champ.

Now, I know less than shit about wing chun trapping principles and kung fu lineage, and while I'm sure such knowledge would greatly enhance my general well-being, I don't care. What I do understand is a dude taking a nap on the canvas, and the fact that the trapping that put him there looks nothing like what we've seen in chun trapping drills.

That was a clear demonstration of American Kempo Karate's Dragon Elbow. The MT man clearly demonstrated the internal power principles of Tai Chi and Bruce Lee's short power (or one inch punch) remarkably well for being a sport fighter.

Isn't this just an ordinary parry? I pat the jab out of the way all the time, drill it nearly
every kickboxing lesson. Never drilled that particular follow-up, but I remember it being reccommended in a boxing tutorial on
parries. It certainly gives you a better shot at the opening than countering with your left.

Kind of. You need to time it really well to pull it off. If you do manage it, it looks really cool though.

I remember being taught this move in MMA class where you pat the jab with your right hand and immediately throw a right straight (which could be arguably considered to be trapping), but I can't find a good video of a technique like that so whatever.

Now compare that to this Sean Obasi video.

Is it Wing Chun? Don't know but I liked it especially when Obasi gets the wicked arm lock.

[BackFistMonkey]

I am so embarrassed dude ... I meant to post this video...

Nice shiny.

[BackFistMonkey]

I got your Wing Ch?n knife video right here

[W. Rabbit]

I'm feeling this rightnow

It's hard for me to just think of Wing Chun in terms of only boxing.
