a brutal beating done by a Sanshou instructor on a newbie

[bosshe]

I think this is way overdone..

I dont think he is an instructor. Its possible that he got permission to use the space from his instructor for shooting a video.

Perhaps someone should find out what gym this is and warn the instructor that there is a student conducting this type of action.

Are we sure this wasn't a challenge match? Schools sometimes get challengers and these types of fights can be pretty brutal. Beautiful side kick in either case.

I also doubt that this man was an instructor. It might be a challenge but those are getting much rarer in modern dojos. Not to say tht they don't happen, but they get written off more. I'm trying to wrap my head around why this fight even took place.

Highly doubt it!

The guy in the white pants looked like he didnt want to participate and was doing it due to peer pressure based on his facial expression.

If you look at the crowd, you see young people and they where wearing casual clothing and there was no instructors peresented on either side.

Yup looked like the typical youtube thug. That being said, the guy had a nice kick!

Another video posted by the same individual who posted this video is titled "Close Door Challenges - San Shou vs Kung Fu" so I feel the two are related. The male in the grey sweatpants could have been trash talking and got himself into a pickle, and when he saw his opponent was better than him, lost the will to fight. Seen it happen before.

I rewatched the video and saw two adults and one holding a baby.

Maybe your right, it may have been a challenge match. Nice kick but the guy who delivered it acts like he just KOed a prime mike tyson.

You're right, he does seem too proud over a feat that doesn't seem that big. The winners body language tells me that he wanted the fight. Also in the way that alerts the loser right before the knockout kick that the fight is back on. This suggests a timed bout in which there are some rudimentary rules governing it. Might be a fight club?

I think this was a "Kung Fu" guy who slightly not thought about putting a chalenge out and was totally out of his depth. Thing is in the western world it seems a bit OTT but in China its normal practice.

The checked on him and left him to recover

awesome side kick though

I believe that as a fighter you are only as good as the best opponent you face. I wasn't impressed by this guy.
