Frank Dux...Hollywood hype or true master?

[Larus marinus]

Man, Bloodsport was the best martial arts documentary ever!

Bolo Yeung was right, brick no hit back.

Word.

The best bit was the scene where the Sumo wrestler got punched in the balls - because it featured a Sumo wrestler getting punched in the balls.

Yeah, I'm sorry if I posted the vid in the wrong place...

So, Dux is claiming that the Kumite's history can be traced back to Alexander the Great and the first Olympic Games now?

[Sam Browning]

Multiple tiers of Kumite, so that Dux and Soto would never meet in a match. An origin story with additional wrinkles then the one he told in 1980. (The whole Chinese tier story was absent.)

I can't believe people still believe this crap.

Apologies for necro-ing an old thread - but I thought it better to post in an existing thread, rather than start up a new one.

I was just searching YouTube for the infamous Dux 'double champagne bottle break' (curious what it looked like) when I discovered this new(ish) interview with Dux and Irving Soto where they discuss The Kumite and their MA training:

YouTube - INTERVIEW WITH SOKE GRANDMASTER IRVING SOTO AND FRANK DUX

Just thought that you guys might find it interesting. I'm prepared to accept that my forum search-fu may be crap but it doesn't seem to have been posted here before.

That guy needs to register his software. Or download a crack.

Love Lily Allen, except for that song about chicks hitting thirty and society saying their life is over, utter crap. But I saw her live when she was in Sydney. It was so easy to pick up there it wasn't funny, all these approaching 30 women desperate and dateless, while the majority of guys were gay. It made me, a heterosexual male, hot property.

You heard it here first.


To mebobo, you are either a troll, or immensely stupid.

Lily Allen is the shiznit. She has no problem calling you out in a song. That chick rules. She also has a really nice voice. Got her on my ipod.

YouTube - 8. Lily Allen - Fuck You

I know it probably makes me gay, but I love that song. It beautifully sums up my feelings toward so many people.

No, I'm with you on that one.
You big silly.

As much as some don't want to admit because of his background in ninjutsu and his connections to ashida kim, Frank Dux IS the real deal . He also holds several world records that have been proven and documented, (one being that he broke bulletproof glass with his hand) , and is probably one of the very few instructors that teach authentic ninjutsu in the US. If you don't believe it, go on youtube and type his name . The only questionable part of his martial arts career is the story that is portrayed in the movie "bloodsport". Nobody knows for sure if that story is true or not. Also the claims that he was hired by the CIA during his time in the military are still under question as well.

You've never had to work with Lexan, have you?

I'd be more impressed if he broke Lexan with temperature shock than with his fist. That's actually harder to do.

Come to think of it, I've broken it accidentally. More than once. How thick was alleged Lexan?

Asriel, I smell troll.

[Asriel]

Judging by his post in this thread: Is BJJ worth it? - No BS MMA and Martial Arts

I'm guessing he's a troll.

You're the one backing him up, you do the leg work. Prove he's the real deal, post the links.

So he's the real deal. Apart from when lied about his Martial Arts and Military backgrounds. But other than that he's the real deal? Gotcha, thanks for clearing that up.
