telsun Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 Noone has said that all MA's are equal, just that there is no best To compare styles in UFC, well.......... What do you think TKD was originally for if not for self defence? Do you think that an army of men were taught how to go out to battle and score a few points with some flashy kicks? Admitedly from the outside looking in it would appear that TKD is purely sports orientated. But please do not judge it unless you have tried it. I had a very positive experiance of TKD and would not under rate it at all. Respect to TKD. I keep asking God what I'm for and he tells me........."gee I'm not sure!"

battousai16 Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 "TKD is not good for self defense." who said this? i've one many a skirmish with TKD... well, by many i mean like 1, maybe 2, but percentage wise that's quite a few. that's nearly half. i don't know my a roundhouse kick to the head seems so impractical to every one! how come a side kick to the stomach wont work on the street? and why does everyone think that punches don't exist in tae kwon do!?! and when did the fighters of UFC become the fighting gods of the world? i'd never even heard of the UFC before i came to this forum. i'm willing to bet taht the founders of any given martial art weren't a 250 pound sweaty guy in a thong and knee high boots. well, not thong, speedo thingy or whatever. and remember this is based on the 2 UFC clips i've seen. anyway. i was not very impressed. i'm gonna go into the UFC and win with TKD, just to show you.

Warp Spider Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 UFC is lame. Next time you get in a fight tell me if it's in a square arena with no obstacles and a padded mat. Professional wrestling is more realistic - at least they sometimes pick up chairs and bats. Paladin - A holy beat down in the name of God! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
battousai16 Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 yeah, but i don't know that anyone would sign a contract to be video taped in a dark alley against an opponent who could have absolutely anything under his or her trench coat. did anyone ever see that old episode of monty python where they are teaching defense against fruit?
