Jiyn Posted April 27, 2004 Posted April 27, 2004 well if i was attacked in the strret i would use a mixture of all what i have learnt such as karate kickboxing judo nin jitsu aikido and ju jitsu. Karate is like an explosion, not like paint drying!
kle1n Posted April 27, 2004 Posted April 27, 2004 yeah somehow aikido works good on the street although i had a very weird impression of beeing a pansy during my time as an aikido. (no offence intended) Be everything. Be nothing.
Batosai Imora Posted April 28, 2004 Posted April 28, 2004 its not always the stlye, but the fighter and his level of training, garuntee you that some one like mike tyson , dont let the man fool you is a very dangerous man even at his age will beat the living sh!t out of any karate fighter you pit him against, why because of his training, when he trains he is ready to tear you head off, many martial artists dont train properly or to the intensity most boxers train to period. ladies email me for some fun

G Money Slick Posted April 28, 2004 Posted April 28, 2004 Hapkido - An excellent style for the streets. Joint locks & hard offense. If your enemy refuses to be humbled......you must destroy him.
SevenStar Posted April 29, 2004 Posted April 29, 2004 standing joint locks can be pretty hard to pull off in combat, especially for a newbie.
kle1n Posted April 29, 2004 Posted April 29, 2004 yeah i totally agree with sevenstar. Be everything. Be nothing.
Mart Posted April 29, 2004 Posted April 29, 2004 yes, i agree too. joint locks are pretty useless. Only good when trying to restrain but if it kicks off forget it. Seize the day!
Fat Donkey Posted April 29, 2004 Posted April 29, 2004 Joint locks are not useless, their just really hard to perfect and apply. I've stopped more fights with simple hapkido wrist locks, than I've won with Muy Thai, Judo, Shotokan or Tae Kwon Do. And no one really got hurt. Hey new comer, JKD is a great style to start with because it has so many elements of other styles. In it u can decide which is really best for u and then specialise if your so inclined. Donkey
Batosai Imora Posted April 30, 2004 Posted April 30, 2004 a good way of being effective as you can be, is to throw away styles and limitation, learn as much as you can a bout all areas of combat and not just one, the body, mind , and spirit must be trained together as one, this is a way of being as effective as you can be ladies email me for some fun
