SevenStar Posted April 12, 2003 Share Posted April 12, 2003 Keep the conversation respectful, everyone. Besides, isn't this thread supposed to be about boxing? How did it turn into a TKD vs. BJJ thread? lol, it's not really tkd vs. bjj - I train in bjj - I'm just sticking up for tkd a bit, I guess.

SevenStar Posted April 12, 2003 Share Posted April 12, 2003 I know very well what I said. with proper timing, distances can be controlled. If we can agre that boxing does teach proper timing.. how come there were zero pure boxers who managed to not get taken down in fights which allowed it? Boxing teaches nothing which solves the problem of the takedown. A pure boxer has no real defence against a takedown. Not all arts are equally capable of winning a fight. which is why I stress cross training, or at the least doing some type of work with people who train in other styles... but I see where you are going, and I'll give you that.
