Hey jubaji remember that time you fought off 3 bears and her cubs with your wrestling skills?

jubaji · 11-29-2008, 03:32 AM

It was 9 bears.

You get in a simple fight, injuries like a black eye or fat lip are easy to explain to the cops. Missing eyes are not.

Even if charges are not pressed against you, there will be lawsuits, and you will lose because you thought is was a good idea to use Kung Fu eye -gouging techniques, perfected by shaolin monks centuries ago.

Martial arts like wrestling, boxing, thai boxing or BJJ are excellent for subduing or controlling someone without maiming them for life. it's self defense, practical for 99% of the fights you will get in.

Unless you live on the streets of war torn beirut, or are in prison, or in the middle of a gang fight, fish hooking and eye gouging are not a good idea.

Anything more serious comes up, like a home invasion by professional criminals, I have security alarms, guns and loud dogs. And the police are usually actually able to save you when you call them.

Naive on my part? Possibly, but I just don't see the use for those techniques, at least in the sense that taking a martial art that supposedly specializes in those things is superior to a sport martial art.

Sport martial arts are done against live, realistic partners. But with what old "tiger claw" is using, you can't even really practice eye gouging, therefore in a real situation are you 100% you could use it effectively?

1) Im not talking about a fight, Im talking about a selfdefence situation, where youve got some crazed moron trying to do more than just bash you around a bit.

2)Id personally rather explain why his eyes are missing than have him explain why Im lyeing dead in a gutter

3)Im not really talking about kung fu crap, more just the simple attacks to the groin, eyes, etc etc, that anyone can do (that dont take years to perefect like kung fu teachers would have you think)

4) I never claimed or implied wrestling bjj Mt etc arent good at what they do, I duno why you have brought them up

5) Im not for this Kung fu being superior to everything else because it uses eye gouging etc etc bla bla junk, I dont agree with it as youl see In my past post on this topic.

The whole reason I asked you was I think its rediculous to ridicule attacking those points just because its a bit excessive, Id always keep them as an option.

kenshiryan,

Yes I agree with you, the techniques I speak of are for combat survival, a kung fu fighter does not have to do those moves unless needed. If I was being attacked by two men with knives I am going to think about using combat survival techniques. And legally I would be within my rights. I have talked with police officers about this and they said I can use whatever is needful in a survival situation. The only issue is that there must be prooft that it was a life and death struggle or a very violent attack.For example I am not going to attack a drunk pushing me on the streets with life and deah techniques.

I think that some I have met in discussions like this have no idea what combat survival techniques are and they may not be aware of many of the kung fu techniques available.

Others like jubaji, are just mocking and seem to have no real argument besides that. They read other post by mockers and actually believe the mockers. I go into a MM forum and pose the question about Kung Fu survival attacks for combat compared to MMA fighting and all hell breaks loose. There is a massive amount of misunderstanding and false reasoning attacks upon a persons ideas beliefs teachings etc. It seems there are many people who can talk and attack with mockery, but I get the impression they do this when all arguments fail.

Then you really do not know what you are talking about. You have no idea what a kung fu fight looks like, so your words make no sense at all. If you have never seen a Kung Fu man fight your argument also has no purpose at all except to spake your biases and attack on kung fu.

I can tell you that there are some kung fu fighters that I believe could overcome two MMA fighters in combat. I do not say this to boast or put down others. I just believe this is the case.The fights would last about 15 seconds or so.

Also, you said that you got a good laugh at my post, can you please explain what you found funny? Can you give me a detailed explaination of what you read and why it was so funny?

You have proven time and again that you merit nothing more than mocking. That's why you keep getting chased off forums like this.

I have seen gongfu men fight - some looked gawd awful, keeping their hands down when they should be protecting, kicks lacking power, sometimes telegraphed strikes. However, I've seen on rare occasions gongfu men strike someone from 'out of nowhere' and knock a guy flat on his @ss.

Gongfu's strengths (from my limited opinion): quick-deceptive striking, the ability to flow from one range to another or the ability to flow from one attack to another, destructive infighting

I'm thinking snake, mantis and crane styles are notorious for the above. Can we get elaboration from an animal stylist here? I'd guess internal stylists are all about the above - again from my limited exposure to the internal stylists we've had here (chrisdavis, boar) etc.

Tiger style is more of an external, hard, power-based style - more along the lines of muaythai.

Gongfu's weaknesses (from my limited opinion): lack of realistic training methods, lack of training against other fighting stlyes - so their strengths and weaknesses can't be tested.

There have been forum members who have put these styles to work (maybe not successful in the ring) but in security work.

Unlikely.

Studying any martial art style only increases your chance of surviving. And if you're up against multiple opponents (especially trained!) your chances are slim.

Tom Yum,

Hello and I agree with the way you think. I have developed for myself the snake style of fighting and mantis and I also favour the tiger style. I use snake for fast deflecting and shifting along with rapid strikes that are hard to counter. I use the mantis when I want to get a hold of someone and lock them up. I use tiger for raking motions and also clawing and locking. Tiger is very circular as well and is very strong for going over and under bridges of the opponent. I also like the close quarter fighting of the tiger. The tiger is good for palm striking as well and power moves that uproot the opponent. That is why I study other fighting styles and grapplers etc. Its good to keep learning and growing.

In the best situation a kung fu man would have opportunity to develope his figthing style against a vast amount of styles. But if the training is well organized, the attacked of other fighting styles can be addressed also. I try to teach my students what to do in case their attacker knows different styles of fighting.

I wish you would stop lying. I have never been chased off any forum. What you might mean to say is, that I spoke claer truth and exposed the errors of some in another forum, some who had big egos and arrogant. The problem was that one I exposed happened to be a moderator it seems. False power and ego can bann many a true person. So be careful what side you are on. You could not be further from the truth in your uneducated, mean spirited, slanderous, attacks.

The best thing you could do here, is to start from scratch with me, apologize for your mistake and seek judge me truly by what I say and examine it. If you disagree show clear and detailed reasons why.

I provided links to your humiliation. You appear to be on track to earn the same fate here.

If we get back to the original point, as you said above a kung fu fighter does not have to use those techniques unless needed, your example was two men with knives, however the ufc it is not filled with knife weilding twins haha, just one guy and their fists etc etc therefore by your terms it is uneccisary to use those techniques in the ufc.

problem solved.

All I'll add is there is a massive difference between fighting and selfdefence, ufc is fighting, eye gouging etc etc is self defence, its called ultimate fighting, not ultimate self defence.

Kung-Fu is the grandfather of all martial arts and should be respected, but much of its techniques just don't work anymore. Of course, there is SanShou (which is the application of Kung-Fu), but even in this martial art much of the techniques of Kung_Fu have been removed. But what do I know, I'm just some guy on an internet forum.

Yes, and that is my point basically. But it seems that there are some who act as if MMA fighters are far more effective in real combat than Kung Fu fighters. They mock kung fu and speak as if it has no reality in combat. That idea is very wrong. Usually when people talk like this they have hardly any understanding of Kung Fu techniques or the long history of its development in actual combat and war situations etc.
