JIUJITSUFIGHTER

long story short, standing by myself, outside a mall, three guys around 15 or 16 yrs old threw snowballs at me, swore at me , i approached them asked what the problem was, they asked if i wanted a fight. I elbowed the guy in front of me as soon as he said that. The other 2 people who were next to him just stepped back. than i left the scene. im 17 by the way, so it will be charged in juvenille court, if tried at all what would you have done?

k there im not comparing my brawling experience, u think i've never fought on the street, u think all bjjs are all MMA ALL THE WAY? IM NOT SAYIN TMA ARE BAD THERE ARE GOOD ONES, BUT YOUR A TOOL

obviously but that doesn't mean they're better at throwing, ur giving off that impression

k your just being a tool, its not an opion though your regurgitating old myth that some tma guys made up

at least a year before to begin to understand

yes, him slapping you is a huge deal i would have attacked him right than and there, and people make fun of me all the time about martial arts, but only my close friends know. i decided to keep it that way because, even noone should know, about your martial arts training. i find its better to keep it a secret. it prevents things like" oh ya my friend is a bb he'll kick your ass" , this has happened to me before. you should make an example of this guy but do not provoke an attack if he slaps you than you can use what force you think is necessary to defend yourself. good luck

we're talking about hundreds, maybe even one or two thousand years. gung fu is that old, now if you look at mma its new and it will be always be new, because it continues to evolve. when is it that you see a few kung fu masters coming up with new stuff almost never, because they practice their forms, that are centuries old and some of them are outdated and don't work, as we have seen in mma events. this is oppose to lets say bjj teachers who change and develop new stuff on a weekly basis and fifteen years from now mma will not be " ancient" because it isn't.

i have seen hung gar, and its not bad and i have studied a little jujutsu and the jujutsu is probable better.

stop trying to find holes in bjj, insulting and criticizing (in a bad way) the art, won't make you feel better about yourself and your innefective art forms.

northern shaolin is very different, i know a master in the art. his website provides valuable info, here it is.. . lornebernard.com or that might not be the site, but look up sifu lorne bernard and the info will follow.

i have been in about a dozen or so,

ok than......???

helloo i had a few drinks so, im saying an experience i had,and tht my techniques can work when im drunk and how it all becomes natural reflexes. don't preach to me about respect for the arts.

yes traditional jj is nice, i did it with my ninpo training. but thats in the past. ninpo is very...........no comment.

i was at a party this weekend i had a few drinks,............. than a guy came and pushed me ......... i gave him a firemans carry(don't know the japanese name) than an omoplata, than i transitioned into an armbar and he tapped than his friend came and attacked me , .......i choked him out via rearnaked choke. just because he said bjj doesn't work against more than one person. well theres an example of where it did work. thoughts? opinions? p.s. I love being skilled in martial arts.

some people have over inflated egos. what do you want me to say.

shootfighting or shoot is a combination of karate/judo/muaythai and german wrestling. it was formed in japan, when 3 guys (i think) came together and formed it. although you better watch out because shooto/shootfighting is not the same as shootboxing. erik paulson or bart vale are good examples of shootfighting. and to answer your question shootfighting is a good blend of mma fighting.

maphilindo silat( inosanto) kajukenbo (hard style) jeet kune do brazilian jiu-jitsu muaythai pekiti tirsia kali in no particular order..........

bjj is an amazing art even with full contact rules or no rules at all i have used it against other highly trained martial artists and they did not even stand a chance.

ok i get what your trying to say, shotokanwarrior and it sounds good to me ill have to try it, but you have to undertsand that in bjj there is always another option,we have have more techniques for the same situation up our sleeve.

ACTUALLY BLITZCRAIG if history is right, than bodhiharma, taught the chinese monks 18 techniques and than the monks of china elaborated on them. and i think the greaks(alexander the great) are the ones who taught the indians.

they are a few best ones that i can think of, bjj, muay thai, jujutsu, silat, kajukenbo, jeet kune do, combat submission wrestling, kali etc....

tank abbot continues to get his a$$ kicked on a regualr basis. and yes smith and wesson , i like the way you think. but i have studied a little jujutsu with my ninpo training and it seems to be pretty good. aiki-jujutsu if taught well is a good style of combat and so is bjj. but to train in them both is a little bit too much. (full plate).

very interesting but , I HAVE STUDIED BLAUER TACTICAL CONFRONTATION SYSTEMS, because its based in montreal,quebec, canada, where i live, and i have trained under tony himself and if this system of combat is anything like blauers system i would stay away. because that was a major scam to take my money. it gave me no technical ability at all. jeet kune do has a training method that trains you to fight example: boxing v.s. knife fighting knife fighting v.s. kicking , and so on........... so this is definately a revolution in the martial arts community. they train they're fighters to be prepared for any situation, they don't just claim to do so.

yes i study bjj and its really great, some people(including myself) refuse to tap out, but its up to you to let them go when they act like jerks. if they don't tap out than move on to the next submission. i know when i have won, so the guy tapping is not so important to me.
