superfighter

we do allot of counter grappling and stand up grappling, we also practice kicking techniques to counter a takedown, since a kick is more reliable to stop a takedown than a punch and i should know becasue i have done it before. One kick in the stomach and they were out.

there was this funny time when 2 little juniors were sparring each other, both yellow belts, Then they just suddenly ran at each other and both nutted each other in he face, it was hilarious Both of the kids cried and i felt mean for laughing, but everyone was laughin cus it looked so funny, even there parents were laughin.

There is always a high chance that Tyson will lose because most of the UFC guys are way more skilled than Tyson when it comes to fighting skills. The biggest problem is when Tyson gets angry, if Tyson snapped in front of me i'd rather leg it out of there than fight. I'd love to see him snap on a UFC guy, they'd crap themselves

yeh i was thinking exactly the same thing, if Tyson was to snap inside the UFC cage, then God help the guy in there who's with him. Tyson aint a guy that u wanna get angry, yeh he might throw technique out the window, but so what, who wants a crazy mike Tyson swinging punches left an right? If Tyson was to get grappled on the ground if feel he would know what to do, especially if he was angry, he'd fight like a caged animal to escape. If he does fight in a MMA bout then the guy who fights him has a loada guts, there will be no big padded glove to absorb Tysons punch.

is it true that Mike Tyson is gonna compete in a MMA bout?, if he does what do you reckon the outcome would be?

hey cool i'm a yellow belt hehe

he's still a troll

don't you just love the way that muay Thai fightiers are always so arrogant Take Muay Thai fighter for example need i say more

Blade or Blade 2 He uses the most basic of technques and little flash, including knees chokes, arm bars and what not. It shows what will work in a real fight Which is what i like to see

After seeing how sucessfull people are in Tai Boxing, i am beginnig to have doubts on whether one should have to take years to fight effectivly

i hope they do allow punches in Tae Kwon Do, as hopefully people will realise that Tae Kwon Do is not just based on kicking. At the end of the day i accept that Tae Kwon Do is known for its powerful kicking techniques, but it still translates as the Foot hand Way of art. So therefore it still a punching art, and i hope people will get to see just how efficient we are at punching as no doubt this will suprise some people. My instructor stresses punching, if we ever drop our hands he's over us like a ton of bricks. I hope this is enforced in WTF sparring as it will bring some believability to the fights, ie proper guards block ect because seeing them fight with there hands down makes me wanna scream, punching will make it more of a fight which is what i wanna see. i doubt it will happen though, cus people wanna see flash and punching leads to less flash, the fights will be more tactical and slow so its a big decision to make.

i dunno about bowing but i was walking through the supermarket practicing my hand movements and nearlly smacked an old lady in the face. I got loadsa dirty looks off people, thought i was some kind of nut lol

Submission fighter has got a good point, Bruce Lee aint the smallest of guys. But compared to most of the UFC fighters he's scrawny, and weight as we know does play a big part in UFC fights. If Bruce Lee was slammed against the cage by a 200 pound guy, i do have allot of doubts on whether he would get out alive. Its not as if he can just shrug him off an ask for more, these guys are big and heavy.

i wouldn't want to be training in a countless number of martial arts, i'd rather be a master of 2, for example a striking art and a grappling art. I think its a waste of time learning too many martial arts, too many techniques to learn and not enough time to focus on each one.

Which do all u prefer grappling ot striking? which is the most useful?

this didn't happen to me but it was dam funny, This guy after our Tae Kwon do class walked out without his shoes on, only to come back in about a minute after to get them, lol i think only i noticed, lucky for him. i mean how does someone not realise they aint got there shoes on?

lol now come on, Judo is HIGHLY effective on the street moreso than allot of striking arts. I've seen a karate guy against a judo guy at my school at the judo guy kicked his ass. One throw followd by a choke was all it took. You seem to forget that Judo wasn't invented as a sport and most of what happens in judo will work on the street, its techniques are practicle and dangerous.

who here still considers Judo to be a martial art rather than just a sport?

i would sweep if i could

We all know that Bruce Lee was an amazingly fast sticker. Would this have given him an advantage in the UFC? if alive today how long do you reckon he would last against Guys like Tito ortiz and Tank Abbot? Lets not forget that Bruce Lee also studied some ground grappling too, Maybe not the extent of the of the MMArtists today but he knew how to grapple.

at my Tae Kwon Do club we have this Daddy long legs guy who is nearly impossible to beat because of the reach in his legs i want to know what are all your techniques and strategies to beat someone like this?

don't answer me then!!

ITF Tae Kwon Do VS Shotokan Karate give us your thoughts

which do you all consider to be the movie with the most realistic and authentic martial arts?

i got in to a fight with someone at my school who was a karate bigshot. i kicked him in the gut and winded him around 10 seconds. that was really the only move i could do becasue he was crazy while coming forward and throwing crazy punches. Thats a situation i never want to get in to again ITF Black Belt Tae Kwon DO
