Does anybody know anything about San Soo and how it compares to other styles?

san shou. similar to muay thai. look it up on google, youll see. in ring, no elbows, more throws, like with leg catches. san shou vs muay thai, big debate, blah blah blah. im better. no im better. no hes better. but hes really good too. and so on. its funny though, because i heard both are allegedly competing to become an olympic sport, and im thinkin- my a55. boxing is contraversial as it is in the olympics, brutal kickboxing doesnt have a chance at making it in. anyway, yea, san shou is what it is.

Thuggish it's not San Shou it's San Soo. San Soo is a Combat MA and you know what San Shou is already.

 

This is the founder of San Soo.

oh... well look at that. ive heard of san shou, but never san soo before....

San shou is a good fighting sport of Chinese Kungfu,you can use lots of fighting methods to KO your emulant during San shou match,for example,boxing,kicking,wrestling.San shou is a kind of sport as free combat in China.

Thuggish can you layer the sarcasm a little thicker? I like the chunky kind.

i wasnt being sarcastic

Sorry, my bad.

hahaha, thats funny.

 

really though, how would one describe the style of san soo? (like tkd is much flashy high kicks, muay thai is kickboxing with knees and elbows and super powerful kicks, BJJ is grappling that takes it to the ground a lot, etc etc)

How would you?
