JLee Posted April 6, 2004 Posted April 6, 2004 my friend has studied wing chun for about a year now, and another friend of mine studied Muay Thai for a year too. they're going to go sparring later this week, i was wondering who you guys would think would win, ive been to both of their practices and Muay Thai looks really rough and Wing Chun looks like a serious self defense art.
Ironberg Posted April 6, 2004 Posted April 6, 2004 Fifty bucks on the Muay Thai guy for me. Jokes aside, my statement I just made will probably not be taken lightly. It's not that I think Wing Chun is ineffective, it's just that the LEARNING CURVE takes longer than a year to develope proficiency in that form of traditional art.

WolverineGuy Posted April 6, 2004 Posted April 6, 2004 I'd have to go with the Muay Thai guy as well. Call me silly. Wolverine1st Dan - Kalkinodo"Shut up brain, or I'll stab you with a q-tip""There is no spoon."
Ironberg Posted April 6, 2004 Posted April 6, 2004 Now if the Wing Chun guy has been doing it for about four years, or has possibly cross trained - I'd put the money on the WC guy. Let us know what happens. "An enlightened man would offer a weary traveler a bed for the night, and invite him to share a civilized conversation over a bowl of... Cocoa Puffs."
JLee Posted April 6, 2004 Author Posted April 6, 2004 i already have ppl betting money for this?! lol anyways um they're going later today actually, and another group of my friends are going to go sparr too. man i feel so left out..my other friends are currently learning Jun fan and another is learning JKD, both for about 7 months. Do i have any bidders on the JKD guy?? or the Jun Fan guy??? jp.. gimme some of your opinions about who will win? ill tell you guys the outcome later.
Shorinryu Sensei Posted April 6, 2004 Posted April 6, 2004 You didn't say what kind of sparring though. full contact, I'd bet $25 onb the MT guy (you will take a check, right? ). Point fighting...never having seen either fight, I'd say even money. My nightly prayer..."Please, just let me win that PowerBall Jackpot just once. I'll prove to you that it won't change me!"
kle1n Posted April 6, 2004 Posted April 6, 2004 i am a cross trained wing chun guy and i am soon doing sparring against a jkd guy soon. the guy did thai boxing too. but since i am a member in this forum i awate that you place your bets on me Be everything. Be nothing.
Shorinryu Sensei Posted April 6, 2004 Posted April 6, 2004 I'll wager $100 cyber-dollars on you. My nightly prayer..."Please, just let me win that PowerBall Jackpot just once. I'll prove to you that it won't change me!"
