How Skill Beat Size: Small MMA Fighter Defeats Big Kungfu Fighter - Nam Phan vs Khai Tran
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 май 2024
- In this very interesting case study of style vs style, fighter vs fighter, let's look at what happens when a very big and fit Kungfu guy in his 50s (Khai Tran) representing Vietnamese Hung Gar (Hong Gia) takes on a smaller MMA pro fighter in his 30s (Nam Phan). The fight goes two rounds, and in our opinion, should have been stopped much earlier. With that being said, the Kung Fu guy does pretty well and should have just protected his face more. For those of you who watch this, please leave your comments and let us know what you think! Also, if Khai or Nam see this, we would love to hear your thoughts and find out more about the background behind this! Also, we found out what happened to Khai after this, so if anyone can get us in touch with Khai, we would really want to follow his recovery! • To My Hong Gia Viet Na...

The Kung Fu guy Khai Tran seemed to have had an existing issue with his C5 vertebrae that was either exacerbated or made an issue by this match, so our prayers are with him to heal and get better.

Here is where the kung fu guy train
www.honggiavietnam.com. The match did take place in California. This is far better than any of xuxiaodongs kung fu challenge matches, dont you think?
Hope the kung fu guy learned from this.
PS: from what i know, Hong Gia is Hung Gar in Vietnam. Here is the kung fu guy youtube. ruclips.net/video/BmHVhs0LhcU/видео.html. Hope the kung fu guys train more then a rematch?!
@@gkoverland Interesting! If I'm not mistaken then, he does Hung Gar kung fu?
@@FightCommentary i beleive so

Referee: You good dude?

That's what I was thinking. I don't know why they kept fighting.
Referee was like, 'true gung fu nevah dhie.'
Da fuq dude lmao😂

"No matter what martial art, chins down, hands up." Best quote!
Why chins down? Sorry I'm new to the game
@@rules8076 No problem! If you leave your chin out, it's an easy target. Imagine getting hit on your chin, the torque forces applied to your head are immense at that point, easy knock-out. With your chin tucked, even if you get punched in your chin, won't be as brutal.
@@zoommair thanks man, if I ever need to defend myself I will keep that in mind 👍😊
It is amazing how much difference tucking the chin and having a good mouth guard makes. Shoulder roll of a good boxer is amazing to watch. Kung Fu guy is at least 30 lb heavier, no?
@moz_boxing yes I don't plan to fight, but if I'm cornered I need to know how to Def myself
Referee: You good, man?
Kungfu guy: Potato
Referee: Alright, he's good. FIGHT!!!
Ref said “if he dies he dies”
China just doesn't want to feel like it's been beaten by America in anything, especially fighting. They see MMA as western. And that's really it.
@@jeremymain7303 they're vietnamese jeez... there're no such thing kung-fu nationalism here, only cult and fake
@@hoangdung7494 You apparently don't know about Xu Xiaodong.
@@jeremymain7303 are you really that ignorant? Vietnam and China are 2 different countries
@@hoangdung7494 Gasp! No. Really? Wow. My eyes, they have been opened.
This is so far the best Kung Fu guy to fight an MMA guy video. Although, the kung fu guy used zero Kung Fu, just threw normal-ish punches. Good kicks and elbows as stated. If that Kung Fu guy had 6 months - 1 Year of MMA training, he could be a very good fighter. I love how he is not afraid to get hit.
Yeah I have an iron chin so hit me as hard as you can. Oh wait I have no cardio. I'm out of shape. OOOPS🤭😳🤪!!!
kkkkkkkkkkk quando falaram que os gringos babava ovo para MMA eu pensei que era zoeira, agora eu vejo que é serio kkkkkkkkkkkkk
@Bud Borne Is almost as they know that kung-fu facy moves ain't worth shit in fight.
@Bud Borne The guy who fought Xu Xiaodong looked like he was doing Wing Chun. His style was simply very sloppy. This "Kung Fu Master" just looked like an aggressive brawler using his size to his advantage and coming at Nam Phan with his hands down. He didn't throw many kicks and that is what people typically associate with Kung Fu. The reason that most of the "masters" in these MMA vs. Kung Fu videos don't look like Cung Le when they fight is because they don't do full-contact sparring. If you did you would know to keep your hands up when you fight. When you train in a kwoon doing forms and practice punching and kicking the air instead of sparring you will look very ineffective when you get in to a real fight.
Bud Borne I agree. I will add that I feel that many Kung Fu styles teach impractical technique. If you look at Cung Le his fighting style is basically Kickboxing with flashy Kung Fu kicks. He started Martial Arts learning Kung Fu and Tae Kwon Do then trained in San Shou. San Shou is kickboxing with throws which has its own techniques derived from different Kung Fu styles such as sweeps and combos that San Shou fighters developed. This is effective Kung Fu for combat sport. Most Wing Chun practitioners will do a lot of arm flailing not only because of lack of sparring but because they are not learning something practical.
Nam is a ufc og from back in the day. He was in the ultimate fighter. Small guy that can box and has good bjj. Kung fu guy was actually decent
Kungfu guy wasnt ‘decent’. I saw no kungfu technique on display, but he knew how to use his size and aggression, so he s probably no stranger to street fights. Nam is a legit warrior. If they could grapple, fight would hv been over in 1 round
kung fu guy is NOT decent, like most kung fu guys... all show but no dice.
He is two weight class, more... how can he be decent? he is just a bully.
Compared to “performances” by Kung fu “experts” in the past this guy actually put up a decent fight.
Nam Phan was skilled and game at his best, but then his last few fights got seriously rough. He is nowhere near as good as he could be, and he still schooled the big kung fu man.
@@stevenlarsson6887 Because he is bigger than his opponent. There was no real fighting skill display, even less kung fu skills.
I just love the purple belts Cobra Kai style gi.
Jeremy Stewart YUP! NO MERCY, MERCY IS FOR THE WEAK !! BY THE WAY THE KUNG FU GUY USED THE DREADED DRUNKEN MANTHIS TECHNIQUE, THAT IS WHY HE KEEPS ON ROLLING AND FALLING !!!
That's funny
The ref was using the street fighter vs x men rules.
No. He lets the guy finish him, so that is mortal kombat rules. lol
Was that Laying Mantis?
No sir it was Lying Mantis.
Splayed Mantis
🤣😂🤣😂
More like flopping moron!
He was drawing his chi power from the ground.
4:40 "FINISH HIM!!!"
4:45 Fatality...Nam Phan Wins
"but the mma guy bullied the traditional guy with their weight"
I thought weight classes didn't matter, and real traditional martial arts can allow little guys to beat up big guys.
Rules of physics still apply regardless of skills. A larger guy will hit harder and take less damage than a smaller guy at the same skill level. But in this case the larger guy is clearly not at the same skill level as his opponent and is quickly knocked out.
@@IR-xy3ij woooosh
This shows martial arts is very inefficient. It doesn't add much strength or cardio. Worst part is that it doesn't add practical fighting skills either.
I’m pretty sure every martial art says that lol.
What they don’t say is that it won’t work against a big guy who is trained.
@@matthewpham9525 Then it just depends on who is better really , there's no "won't work" there's just "you're not good enough to make it work"
Kung fu guys know how to shift punches, do leg kicks and teeps. But seriously he needed to learn how to protect himself by putting his hands up. Not all of us can be Lyoto Machida.
Lyoto is karate
Same thing, they're all asian martial arts anyway /s
Machida is a Karateka that has included other common MMA styles in his repertoire. Kung Fu is shit period.
Kung fu is not shit... many great fighters likes kung fu, even JJ and AS. But you just can't practice only kung fu expecting to be the new champion.
@biggunzcdb also KOed Randy Couture
I'm pretty sure that guy doesn't represent Kung Fu itself. Either way, it was painful to see him not keep his hands up. He just never learned even after constantly taking face shots.
5:06 - "Someone else filmed it."
Well, from the looks of it the whole block filmed it!
I'm convinced perfecting a few punches, low kicks and grappling along with realistic sparring is the best way to learn to defend yourself.
Sure is
I’ve watched some of Nam’s other videos and I think he’s a much better grappler than he is a striker. If they allowed MMA rules with grappling, then he could have finished the fight much faster. Nam seems like a cool guy and I totally support his gym. A great asset to the Vietnamese community. I’m from San Gabriel Valley area, Little Saigon is like our distant relative lol.
I go to SGV often!
Fight Commentary Breakdowns oh wow I thought you’re from China lol!
This fight took place at "Nam Phan MMA Academy" in Garden Grove, California.
If the referee stopped the fight early then the Kung fu guy would complain he stopped too early. The Kung fu guy clearly wanted to continue.
For a guy in his 50's to last as long as he did against a professional MMA fighter is pretty impressive. He had some good kicks and clinch work but he really needs to work on his defence. If he cross-trained in boxing he'd be a beast.
He did VERY well for a Kung Fu fighter indeed.
I think not!
Thank you guys
Your commentary made me realized the difference between real martial art moves and martial art movies
Thank you ref for giving us that great ending. That head bounce was epic!
Love the dual commentary
Kung Fu fighter lost because he had no gloves and couldn't protect his hands, not a fair fight!
Please dont hate me, I'm joking.
I almost curse you lol.
That is what he most likely preferred...
no gloves is actually an advantage, you can hurt your opponent, you can slip your punches between his gloves, no added weight on your hands....
IS KUNG FU A CULT? WHY ARE SO MANY PEOPLE BRAINWASHED OF IT.
@@ricceniza6046 lets start with the fact that there are 3 billion Chinese...
Height advantage, reach advantage, weight advantage and no gloves on. Can't wait to hear the excuses now!
@The Heretic ruclips.net/video/cYAdgbI03VM/видео.html
Letter written by the KF guy to his master post fight. Notice in the first paragraph: "I will do my best to provide an explanation without making excuses for myself" - then goes on to write an entire essay based on excuses 😂
Krypteian
No no! you don't understand bro, the kung fu guy was blocking the punches with his face.
What cretins like you don't understand is that true and properly practised kung fu allows the practitioner to use their opponents weight and size against them. The Nam dude (the 'mma' fighter) has a big background in traditional Vietnamese kung fu and had mastered this technique and this is the true selling point of the video. All of you plebs have been fooled, this video actually shows kung fus dominance. The kung fu guy was actually disadvantaged by his larger size and the guy masquerading as an 'mma' fanboi is actually a kung fu master and bodied him with his supreme kung fu.
You would understand this if you studied Wing Chun where this is common practise and paid attention to the chunners blasting mma shitters out on the daily.
dandele123 j
Poor bastard, go back to watching your kung fu movies & keep fantasising
@@dandele123 You realize Nam owns this mma gym and teaches muay thai as well as BJJ there right?
If wrestling and bjj is allowed this would be 80% faster
True
Probably 20 seconds at the most
Legit
Little guy got underhooks fast
he was not allow to kick ,use elbow and bjj :)
Only Chuck Norris could possibly stop Master Ken
mikeyjames1000
No one can stop his thrust of freedom! Not even sun can stand his kill face!!
Thanks for the upload mate, excellent video again 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Suddenly he cant remember his kungfu
the contrast betweeen the two commentators was awesome
Yeah, the two of them are so funny. One's super energetic and the other is super chill.
The Kung Fu guy seemed to understand how to throw good punches but god damn did he not even know what a block is.
Love these dual commentaries
BTW, Rob has hit 4000 subscribers on his channel!
Nam Phan used to fight in the UFC. His fights with Leonard Garcia were legendary.
I was getting worried because you haven't uploaded in a few days. Thought maybe you got injured in Frank Dux annual Kumite.
Anal kumite?🤣
Pfft Frank Dux kumite is so 1980. Jerry would have been summoned to Outworld to defend Earth Realm against the hordes of Shao Khan, in a tournament that comes every thousand years.
lol.. good one.
It's like, Uncle vs Nephew with fresh MMA skills
Hmm after watching all Kung Fu vs blah blah they have mostly weak defense and low cardio (indication of little to none conditioning and lack of sparring)
It's painful watching that guys brain get rattled
The Ref should’ve stopped the fight on the first knock down. Kung Fu guy was obviously out on his feet after that.
Roddy Yang It was not a street fight. It was in a ring with a third person there to stop and control the action. That’s a ref. Get a dictionary so you can inform yourself.
Mario Yamasaki strikes again...
Letting them be warriors out there
Hahahhahah
On behalf of the Kung Fooled community, the Kung Fooled master lost because the ring was too small, and there were too many people, and the ref wore the wrong colored costume, and spectators were using the wrong devices to record. Seriously, it's not because of Kung Fooled guy's lack of skills and/or piss poor techniques.
If you punch kungfu master's face, he'll sleep well and dream to fly like superman 😂😂😂
Another defeat for the "stumbling forward with your hands down chin jutting out "style.
Mario Yamasaki is so proud of this ref.
@no name If he dies, he dies
Since most MMA fighters train in Muay Thai and Boxing, I would think that a better title for this would be, "Kung-Fu vs Muay Thai" or "Kung-Fu vs Muay Thai/Boxing". I do not consider MMA to be a real "discipline".
This mma guy is nam phan. He is a jujitsu black belt but doesn't use it on fights. Now i remember how pissed and mad bj penn was on him on the ultimate fighter show! Bj kept yelling him to take his opponent down and he just stood their banging all night! Haha
That's another guy. Andy Wang actually. Dude cried and shit about being a warrior and stuff. Nam Phan was pretty good and did alright. He got caught wanking in the showers though, which is one of his lowlights.
So he trained in iron cheek/ neck?
Kung fu guy is not that bad, his opponent was a professional fighter
Yah but kungfu guy teaches people. He also has enough pride to get KOed so perhaps some of that pride gets transferred?
mma guy is NOT a professional at his art
@@christaylor7916 He is a retired UFC fighter.
@@yankielnaranjo821 🤔🤔
Nam Phan did not allow to kick , using BJJ and elbow ...
This is atleast better than other kung fu guys
Mcrey Fonacier but where is the kungfu moves that i always watch in the movies
4:48 He saw lots of birds flying around in circles Lol!
Was that the fabled Brick face style?
Damn did he block those punches with his face
Who remembers nam on TUF?
When you get to purple belt, you're allowed to remove your sleeves from your gi? Is this a thing?
Good commentary
I dig your videos, freind. :)
You missed a lot of stuff, Do your research this fighter gave an actual interview about this fight. The kung fu guy had never sparred in his life this was actually supposedly to be a sparring match but the kung fu guy took the invite as a personal insult. He didn’t understand the idea of sparing and he felt like he was an absolutely superior fighter even though he had not sparred even once. Look up,Peterson’s grappling for the interview.
Can't find it on Google, could you post a link?
There ruclips.net/video/3fjcvJjeToI/видео.html
I love watching those style vs style matchups on youtube (I mean, who doesn't ?), it's really one of my favourite thing ever, but I've yet to find a reliable way to find reliable info about each of these match. It's so interesting, yet I haven't found someone dedicating enough time to it. Everytime you see one of these wacky "style vs style" matches, you've got to watch about 5 other videos of the same fight, until you find a youtuber who really explains the context in details. Sometimes Fight Commentary Breakdown does it, but most of the time he just plays a video, and is wondering what's happening just like us.
So my question is : Does someone know of a channel, or website, where they regularly talk about the latest fights of this kind, and breakdown precisely what's the background of each fighter, what's their supposed level, their age, why are they fighting, under what rules are they fighting, and super important stuff like that ? A bit like Fight Commentary Breakdown, but with just slightly more effort ?
It's really important for the internet to find a go to channel or website for that, as soon as possible, so much misinformation gets spread around by clickbait youtube videos that don't explain anything of the context.
He's not even using Kung fu he's just trying to match the MMA fighting style which he should stick to his own
If he use Kung Fu, he will get murder instanly.
Movie Kungfu can beat MMA easy, too bad this is not a movie
@@aclock2,
Lol.
@Audio 9999,
You are not even in China. You are nothing but a fat ass piece of shit. Send me your email. I want to have a sanction match with you. Do you accept it or not?
@Audio 9999 There aren't many if any real Kung fu masters left. And the monks train for show and tricks not fighting.
Love that head bounced. So satisfying to watch.
Love the video but at around 6:10 you mentioned sanda and something else as modern kung fu and i was wondering what the other style is
Actually Kung Fu is suitable for performances, not suitable for fight.
objectively speaking hundreds of moves if performed by a professional faster then opponent will work more then cave men mma kicks or punches lol
the referee man XD he is like from a bad fighting video game
Kung fu guy doesn’t even using Kung fu he was just swinging like MMA fighters
hahaa I am glad you did a review on this. lol
That ref should stick with playing video game.
A match between Cung Le and Francois Flores will end like this fight.
I’m still looking for the king fu fighter in this video 🤩🤩
Nam Pham was on the TUF series (UFC). Cheers Nam, good to see him.
Nam is a level professional, he's fighting an old amateur.
Last part was drunken master technique
He forgot to use it to get him OUT of trouble.
punch drunk master
Yup. And he almost destroy the little guy's hands with that technique...lol
Guy needed the paramedics after that. Dodgy garage operation lol
It's a fact... It doesn't matter what style of Martial Arts you've done if you don't have true fighting experience then a lot of it goes out the window. Plus, you can tell the Kung Fu guy is an avid weight lifter with shoulders and arms that size. He probably figured he could bully and overpower Nam. Nam wasn't even really trying.
It makes me sad that people still believe in Kung Fu after it's been exposed so many times.
Keep in mind there was no take downs here and the Kung Fu guy had like 20lbs at least on the other guy.
This was set up with everything in the Kung Fu guys favor and he got smoked.
@True WingChun bro u would get checked so fast in my gym 100%. There are no KF masters cuz KF doesnt work.
KF simply does not offer the tools necessary to compete against an MMA fighter.
Ive trained both KF and MMA. I trained both at very reputable gyms for a number of years and KF simply does not work.
If your skill is so great that you cant use it on anyone for fear of crippling or killing them, what good is it? You cant control it? Guess what happens with a RNC if u dont tap? U die....
Again, MMA guys are very capable of controlling their technique and not crippling or killing people, why are KF masters unable to?
Heres the problem my guy... There are 1000s of videos of KF guys getting absolutely smashed by MMA guys, there are no videos of the opposite. Guys like Master wong dodge any challenge that comes their way.
If your art is so complicated and takes so long to master that no one can do it.... THEN ITS USELESS!!! MMA doesnt take years of ur life and it actually works.
@True WingChun my guy, do me a favor. Prove it to me. Go down to a reputable gym in ur city sign a waiver and spar with a reputable MMA guy......
U know u wont, I know u wont. Ur gonna come up with some excuse about why u cant or wont.
Dude we have KF guys come through my MMA gym weekly.... I see guys like you who are so invested in KF that you believe all the BS about all the mystic powers and super fighting skills...
Like I said, you could simply prove it by going and videoing you dropping some of the MMA guys u say u dropped.
Shit or get off the pot.
@True WingChun
"If you are looking for video proof of the real deal... you are not likely to find it", lol.
If it'll make you happy I'll put Wing Chun above Tai Chi. But, it doen't mean it any good in a real fight.
@True WingChun
What if the systems were flawed to begin with? Master Wong did an analysis of the fight between the one arm boxer, & the wing chun fighter, & he pointed out why the wing chun fighter lost. Wing chun punches are weak, the foot work are not solid. & that from a wing chun master, lol.
Nam fought in the UFC too.
Yep.
Kung Fu guys punches are like those punches you throw in a dream.
This took place at Nam Phan’s gym. I was there for this.
hmm all i see is 2 MMA fighters fighting there
anyway their stamina difference are way too much, godknow how many hours that pro MMA fighter did his physical training grinds.
MMA vs kungfu.
its like gun vs knife in 300 meters distance
You guys should do traditional Kung fu vs Sanda.
I commented on someone’s Kung fu bag work post after they told me mma was useless. I pointed out that if he swung punches like that he’d get knocked out in a real fight. He said ‘Kung fu blocks are different’. Yeah mate, you guys block with your head 😂
Why is he called a Kung fu master? What did he master exactly?
Grasshopper can't you see his face blocks against punches? That is some high level shit I want to see you do it.
he also mastered the art of getting knocked the fuck out! 😁
Slugfest face block style
Not much of what the kung fu guy does looks like kung fu.
@literally not z It look like nothing. So it doesn't look like kung fu.
I think he was not exactly tired but too hurt by the multiple face/chin/head punchs he receive one after another.
I was cracking up when you said mr mechanic man send in your footage
9:22 legend says the ref stil wawes to this day
Lol
😅😅😅
What kind of Kung Fu is this, face-to-fist style?
Isnt that all kung fu?
They think losing is winning.
We taught him wrong...as a joke.
Close, its chin to fist style coupled with overweight crane style.
@@nhatho1723 Excellent comment, sir. I understood that reference.
Just some background info. The kung fu guy came into nams gym very arrogant saying he could compete with guys from the UFC. Nam asks if the guy wants to spar in his class but the kung fu guy saw it as a challenge to fight. Even though the kung fu guy never sparred before he said that he was better than most people there.
Mario Yamasaki is proud of this ref.
There was no Chinese Boxing of any style in this. Big Asian dude is a good street fighter that's all. The reason he lost is that he lacked athleticism, stamina and endurance. The thing with mma fighters is if your a good Kung Fu fighter or even street fighter, if you don't knock them out in the first few rounds, you gas and once you gas, your done. Cause athleticism is the secret of MMA. Without athleticism most MMA fighters would be ineffective because sports like Boxing take a high level of fitness to work. Either way he should've been prepared! Best man won!
Wrong. The secret to MMA is pressure-testing and developing effective skills that actually work. Sparring to develop timing, distancing, analyzing cues, defense/offense techniques, footwork etc. Generalizing MMA down to conditioning neglects its superior technical advantages over most traditional arts.
Yeah there are plenty of fit people that can't fight very well.
I don’t understand, even I (some artist) was doing some Kung fu routines and EACH strike had the other hand SIMULTANEOUSLY go up protecting the side of the head down to solar plexus, and this Kung fu guy does NOTHING of the sort, not even once!!! I mean Benny the Jet is a perfect example of how one should apply (at least instinctively) some strategies!
Benny the Jet is awesome!
Anthony Ng It was I think some sort of bajiquan form where before each strike you smash a flat, outstretched forward foot to the ground (like you want to raise dust), keep the stomped foot on ground and taking step while transferring the weight to the stomped foot. At the same time the impulse created by the stomped foot is channeled through the body which strikes with the fist opposite side of the stomped foot(you know how in terms to pivot pelvis together with jab you need to use the opposite foot pushing on ground). Simultaneously with the strike, the opposite arm of the striking arm makes a lightning speed (just as punch) sweep from passing vertical (elbow down) in front of solar plexus to finishing protecting the whole side of the head, palm flat and outwards, forearm parallel to ground or even rather slanted a little (elbow back and higher than palm). Every single step/strike was just like that. It was a very simple form consisting in doing this while turning to all directions or making a few advancing steps or a few steps backwards. I found here a screen capture of an app that at around the1min29 time mark executes very similar moves but only going backwards ruclips.net/video/Nqt8sl-nT3A/видео.html the rest of the form is very different.
Anthony Ng lol yes, for sure! I had the feeling that he underestimated the other guy: he was definitely in a better physical form (besides stance) -the fact that he took many hits in the beginning didn’t lower his stamina! This definitely shows that he trains more regularly than the taller guy.
"Kill Him" Referee and Palpatine.
Referee: Are you all right?
Kf guy: ...... (Looking to the wall with downed arms)
Referee: Ok fight!
Hahahahahs
I love that bouncing
I keep replaying at that part
\o/
Me too i saw it like 35 times! Even in slow motion!! That's a real funny fatality !!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
So where's the kung fu moves? MMA guy outboxed him
that last clip i think the kung fu guy was trying to shoot lazer out of his eye but the mma guy was just too fast
I remember Nam Phan from UFC days. Dude was strong!
I'm friend with Nam. The kung fu guy wanted to fight in UFC but he has never sparred before
I talked to the kung fu guy a total lunatic never sparres before and train in Vietnamese kung fu lol made up style
Damn, Nam use to be my coach at Garden Grove, California
Bro u just exposed the location
Wait it’s in oc Garden Grove?
Yep
I have no idea why everyone is praising how good the kung fu guy is. He is at least 2-3 weight classes above Nam.
Where was this filmed? Some guys garage in San Diego?(Btw, I totally posted this way before you guessed a dojo in California)
kongfu !!! ???.. but the way he fight not kongfu style ,
So disappointing in the videos that the Kung Fu guys don't use kung fu.
For some reason. All fights on this channel are won by MMA. In some way. It kinda looks like a propaganda to MMA.
Kung Fu guys use Kung Fu - in fictional choreographed Kung Fu movies.
@Howard Adderly no it doesn't. Because I learn Kung fu myself and experienced Kung fu masters don't love fighting. MMA do. And this channel is with MMA. Kinda like propaganda.
@Howard Adderly martial arts aren't for fighting but for self defense. I'm not gonna even argue because you have no idea what you are talking about.
@Howard Adderly you didn't really get me. Fighting is different than sparring. And that's why kung fu fighters here are losing. You gotta spar a lot but fighting is when you are defending yourself from real threats. MMA was never superior to Kung fu. It all depends on the fighter himself.
Anyone who took Kung Fu lessons for years, they will always get Kung Fooled!
Honest question.
How much focus does Kung Fu/TMA put into defense? To me, it seems like they focus on distance management but I don't see the same kind of care being put into fighting inside.
a lot, more than half the techniques are types of blocks. the problem is that they don't focus on application and fighting experience and that's really killing them...
