Won many challnege matches (except of course when Boztepe beat the shit out of him)
Yip Man took him under his wing.....presumably favouring him over his own son!
"It is generally believed" he built the first wooden dummy........ did they call it Willaim? Not by me it isn't.
The funniest thing is that he no longer claims to have been the only student to have been taught "real" Wing Chun. He used to say that all the time. What happened? Did he get sued for lying?
The guy is a disgrace and epitomises everything bad about traditional martial arts.

**Many say Yip Man's favourite student.......Do they? I believe it was Wong Shum Leung that was the favoured student though he "very unCMA about it"
**Won many challnege matches never heard of one that he's won, I think he leeches off bruce's success
**Yip Man took him under his wing.....presumably favouring him over his own son! Wong Shum Leung taught most of the students, yip man didnt want to taint his skills by training with the amatures
**"It is generally believed" he built the first wooden dummy........ did they call it Willaim? yeah right, then he must have created the mook yun jong system while he was at it and wing chun at that.
**The funniest thing is that he no longer claims to have been the only student to have been taught "real" Wing Chun. He used to say that all the time. What happened? He got beaten up remember!!!!???!!!He even said that Yip man taught him the secrets of wing chun(probably told him to keep his mouth shut)!
