I have no idea about his real martial arts abilities..but he makes good old man sensei..wish I knew a guy like that..My Cousin- >.> my cousin is the one who got me interested in fighting in the first place >.>;uh the girl who played Annie in the movie "Annie" XD"Hiya! Oh my gosh I'm so sorry, I didn't really think it'd work"So hai - uh the old man in "drunken master" I'm not giving them a real order..just listing them..but bruce lee is top ..and my cousin is SOMEWHERE in the top XD Strike first. 'Til then i will not fight you. Everytime someone calls JKD a style, Bruce turns over.Why do I love Bruce Lee? Not because he was an awesome martial artist- but because his train of thought overlapped with mine even before I knew about him. Thank you karate forums, for introducing me to Bruce Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kempohands Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 My students! Ah, how simple, and yet how profound. I completely agree. I'd personally also add my Sensei as my martial arts hero, as he inspires me in many ways to become a better martial artist and instructor every day.

Boris Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 I AM VERY HAPPY THAT MOSTLY AMERICANS PREFER TO TAKE MARTIAL ARTIST WITH MOVIE BACKROUND OR MAKERS MARTIAL ARTS MOVIES BECAUSE THESE GUYS HAVE PHILOSOPHY BASE OR THEY LEARNED PHILOSOPHY AND ABSORBED SPIRIT TRAINING..CHUCK NORRIS, BRUCE LEE, STEVEN SEAGAL, JACKIE CHAN AND SO ON...IT NEEDS RATHER IMITATE REALLY GOOD GUYS THAN JUST SPORTSMENS WITHOUT ANY PHILOSOPHY PREPAREDNESS AND KNOW ONLY TO BEAT PARTNER OR TAKE BARBELL.

I don't think you can compare the longevity of MMAers to Boxers. Guys like Couture are going to be the exception rather than the rule, and as the competition keeps getting better and better, the ability to stay on top for prolonged periods of time will lessen more and more.IT NEEDS RATHER IMITATE REALLY GOOD GUYS THAN JUST SPORTSMENS WITHOUT ANY PHILOSOPHY PREPAREDNESS AND KNOW ONLY TO BEAT PARTNER OR TAKE BARBELL.I don't think that this is alltogether fair to assume. Not every movie guy MAist is a nice guy, and you can't know if sportsmen MAist have any personal philosophies without asking them. You might be surprised. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
