Iron Arahat Posted September 16, 2001 Posted September 16, 2001 Fighting by their rules does not mean fighting their style...I fought those fights because they were offered to me, and they wouldn't fight San Shou rules. If I was to fight TKD tomorrow that doesn't mean that I learned their kicks to fight them...

thaiboxerken Posted September 16, 2001 Posted September 16, 2001 You just look at the leg-kicks thrown by kung fu people in the 60's.. Now look at San Shou today. Hmm... no Muay Thai influence? I think somebody needs to open his eyes. Just kick 'em, they'll understand.- Me Apprentice Instructor under Guro Inosanto in Jun Fan Gung Fu and Filipinno Martial arts.Certified Instructor of Frank Cucci's Linxx system of martial arts.
Iron Arahat Posted September 16, 2001 Posted September 16, 2001 Kung-fu kicks by who in the 60's? It's difficult if not impossible to pigeon hole things like that... I know what my style does, and I know what Muay Thai does...We are not Muay Thai plain and simple... You have to go beyond your North American Discovery Channel World....

Angus Posted September 16, 2001 Posted September 16, 2001 Hahaha, here we go again... I'm out of this argument. Just keep it nice please ladies. Angus Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear, not absence of fear.
havoc Posted September 17, 2001 Posted September 17, 2001 ken, since you're the resident bruce lee authority, didn't he film a movie in thailand and didn't he have some interaction with some thai extras that showed him their version of the roundhouse? and bruce adopted this style kick into jkd? if i'm correct on this story(and i believe i am) if this style of kick is used in china, wouldn't a man from china know it already and not have to be shown the kick from someone in another country?
thaiboxerken Posted September 17, 2001 Posted September 17, 2001 I am not sure of that. I'm not a Bruce Lee biographer.
