Chinese MAs in Real Life?

[Red Rum]

Interesting...

Like I said I don't live there. However, I am sure that guns turn up in most places in America than they do in London purely for the reason that in London they are strictly illegal, which was the point I was trying to make

When I went to New York there were two guys on the street corner with guns sticking out of their belt

I'm sure in a club/pub environment they probably appear less and I am sure that certain parts of America have less than others (I am told that in Texas you are looked at funny if you don't own a gun!)

Most figts in real life will look the same. What differs is the populus
In some parts of the world, the guys are smaller and fight quicker
In other parts of the world the guys are huge and fight brawler style (pure brute force etc)

Also in certain places, you won't ever see a knife or gun, and others you will see them all the time

In the UK, most knife and gun defence that I have seen trained is not that good because the appearance of these weaposn is fairly rare

In the US (although I do not live there) I am sure that guns show up a lot

Therefore, whilst I agree that fights will often be the same, there are differences that crop up

Good day

Well it seems that in China, as in most of the universe, when guys go out and get drunk they tend to get into fights.

When I lived in Xi'an in the early-mid 90s, I'd go out for beers with the guys I practiced Taijiquan with and sometimes some stupid drunk would wander over and start trouble, same as anywhere. And they would get smacked in the mouth or thrown on their face, same as anywhere. A couple of the guys I practiced with were the type who, though they wouldn't admit it, enjoyed getting into a little scrap once in a while.

One time I was having a snack in the Muslim quarter with one of the trainers at a KF school I trained at a couple of nights a week when some idiot decided he didn't like the looks of us. Mr Wang gave that boy a pretty good beating if memory serves.


There were no crouching tigers or hidden dragons, and zero wirework. Just folks getting popped in the mouth, swept, thrown, or bounced off a wall. Just like anywhere else.

Just like anywhere else...

Lots of good threads 'round here.

I'll take that as a "no". Maybe you would like to share your experience with us. Afterall you study....um...er.. well, isn't that funny.

If you are ever in the area I'd be happy to have a friendly little spar with you and show you what my art looks like. Until then I guess I'll just have to deal with those stinging retorts you keep throwing out. I'm going to go cry now.


The topic is "Chinese MA's in real life?". The assumption must be that you have none, or maybe you just don't want to share.

TTFN little buddy!

ROTFLMMFAO. Thank god this thread was bumped, it's hilarious.

Zanshin.

Not so much.

[TTEscrima]

Just like, plain 'ol wrestling? And that makes you some sort of expert on every martial art? Damn, I was certain that when I wrestled it didn't impart the wisdom of the ages on me. You must just be totally awesome dude!

All bow down to Jubaji! He has deciphered the key to all martial arts by wrestling for 28 years!! Who knew?

Zanshin.

big-mouth has nothing to say, and he never did

Boring ruining the CMA forum yet again...

[BoarSpear]

Check it out, Bunny boy is SO threatened he went back 6 months to post nothing at all...can you say weak beyond belief?

Even HE realizes he doesn't know enough about the art to actually say anything, he just knows that like most things he doesn't understand it makes him nervous...and that makes his drool cup fill up too fast.

Notice the smilies don't work here, it REALLY leaves him at a disadvantage.

Link?

What I gotta do your homework for ya? Try entering Ch'ang Tung-Sheng into a little thing called a search engine, If thats to much trouble why bother?
I am aware of who he is a what he did, so i havent needed to look him up but from reading many of the post here some of you should.

[47MartialMan]

have a link?

[BoarSpear]

Ch'ang Tung-Sheng

Hey if you want to discuss Cma fighters lets not forget the Iron Butterly. He studied Tai Chi and Hsin yi and was known to have blended them with his Shuai chaio to create his own Tai Chi Style

Man the life boats!!

What, you're some trolls rump wrestler and he sent you here to stir up the pot? Or maybe you were banned under another name and have been reincarnated as Capt Copycat.

In the immorta words of Mike Tyson, "I'm on the Zoloft to keep from killing y'all."

What I'm trying to say is... "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but trolls can never harm me!"

Now it's your turn! Maybe the "I'm rubber and you're glue" defense, or the ever popular " I know you are, but what am I?" technique.

If you haven't figured out from my other posts, I don't really give a crap what you think, but I'll be happy to play for awhile. The thought of you getting all stressed out over a post on a forum is too frickin' hilarious to resist.

Wanna play?
