TJS

My point was I doubt you have enought experience in the Sytem to know what all the techniques are..Im sure you learn many basics in another stlye..that could be said of most stlyes.

dpends on your goal. If you goal is to give them something fun that helps with fitness, discipline, coordination etc than 3-4 range proabably.

Yes I know. Most of the strikes are to set something up.

What about Royces infamous knee kick

Tibby- I assume you are A high ranking black belt in Krav Maga since you know every technique in the sytem? Since KM is a completly diffrent system and has infulences from wrestling/boxing/JJ etc I highly doubt them techniques are all found in Isshinryu anyways.

Sprawl=shoot your legs back and put your weight down on your incomming shooter. from there I would try and force their head down and unbalance them. fromt there you can follow up with any variety of techniques.

hapkido/KSW?

Wrong, I was Shown several Strikes By Relson gracie and he talked about this History of BJJ and the strikes that were incorperated with it's creation.

Muay thai fighter, Who is your instructor?(the one who fought in the UFC)

Obviously if he knew he had a Gun he proabably wouldent have chased him...I think most people would try and follow someone who hit their car...I would expect to be shot for it.

Honestly I dont think it's much a Comparison..You say you learn knees and elbows and that may be true But 99% of TKD schools will not prepare you to deal with kness and elbows form the clinch... TKD is more of a distance stlye..most dont deal well with the clinch as hardly any train or spar with clinch fighting. TKD stlyist can very rarely deal with leg kicks and most dont even spar with punches to the head. Generally speaking MT fighters are exremly conditiones fighters and have to many weapons for your avg TKD guyt o deal with. Here is a Video Of a MT vs TKD ...I think it paints a pretty accurate picture of what would happen in most fights. http://www.bullshido.com/dl_goto.asp?id=5

Sansooner- LOL "deadly strikes" and eye gouges..Have you ever tried eye gouging someone from striking range..you would have to gt close enough to Tyson to do that and One shot from tyson would proabably kill him. Tyson does not know how to defend takedowns...he would definetly have a punchers chance but i would give Tito about a 50% chance of winning by Ground and pound.

nice..im sure it will be a blast.

My instructor always says it his goal for every one of his Student to be better than he is.. I sure dont have to worry about it and he reminds me every time we spar that im a long waya away

I have been show two diffrent ways...one when they are leaning forward putting pressure on you and one when they are leaning back..If you cross face then and get their head back...You can use you leag to wrap around their head and pull them off...hard to descipe the technique in writing though.,.

If they Stand on one leg Eat the kick comming in a give them a solid right knocking them off their one legged balance and sending them back to the mat a few feet... err..I mean...

depends on the situation..I wouldent hesitate to kick someon in the groin in a Fight but it would have to be a pretty serious for me to gouge someones eyes out...but if i felt like i was in danger or a loved one was i would in a hearbeat.

Warp spider- Find me one example of a Striker who has beaten in competent grappler in the UFC without Cross training in wrestling/jiu jitsu or some other grappling stlye. All of the Succesful Striker n the UFC are the ones who can either A) survive on the ground because of cross training in jiu jitsu/submission wrestling etc or B) have a strong wrestling background and can stay on their feet. Pedro Rizzo, Maurice Smith, Bas Rutten, Chuck Liddel, etc ..all of them are fomous "strikers" and all meet one of the criteria above. Are you saying There havent been any Built Athletes in the UFC? Whynot-Yes I agree there has never been a boxer of Tyson caliber in the UFC..I would love to see him fight but we all know it will never happen.

Just out of Curiosity did you compete in the San Shou competition?

Im guessing you limit prime tagets with certain techniques?

Headgear, cup, shingaurds, 16 oz gloves, mouthpiece-heavy contact We also slow it down and take all the pads off so you cant work more on technique.

Um...Yes thats True but that dosent have anything to do with the stlyles..What im Saying Is Devoting equal time and effort to the style and all things equal, KM will be picked up alot quicker.

Raise you leg and block with your shin...but you want to have a bit of give and bounce it back off...thing of it like a spring. you can of course just hop back if you have time. Then if you dont there is a meathod of absorbing the kicks.
