Baquazhang for self defense

[BoarSpear]

So has anyone ever seen Baqua taught for self defense? Was it realistic? What styles of Baqua have you seen?

I ask because it seems rare to find someone capable of actually fighting with the Baqua principles. Usually they intercept and nuetralize the strike with Baqua principles and then deliver a Hsin Yi strike confused: anyone else ever notice this?

I have seen a few exceptions and I will comment more but I want your experiences and observations first.

c'mon mate, be serious. How can you think that Baqua can be realistic? Are you living in 17th Century China?

go have a look at the real world... and answer yourself that silly question

So, what styles are you familiar with and where did you learn them? you seem to be quite the expert on Baqua!

Do you also feel Piqua is useless? what about Baji? I sure feel lucky to have found you, such a wealth of knowledge on the CMA's.

Its not often you see someone so sure an entire style is complete crap, what have you seen that makes you so sure?

[bartjam]

those styles you mention, mate, are totally useless in today's streets

However, the best way to discover it is that you do it yourself. Study Bagua intensively, as much as you can. Put everything you have into it.

Then go to Glasgow (for instance). Enter a pub on a Friday night. Stare at some local badass and tell him his mother sucks like no other since.

Then try out your Bagua

Im still waiting on where you learned all these styles to be such an authority on them. Do you actually know these styles or does your vast MMA experience "tell you" the CMA's suck and thats all you need to know?

So there is nothing useful in any of those arts? what about Taiji is it useless as well?

In today's streets? Wow.. i must say that you are an idiot. An utterly, useles idiot. Hey folks, we have another stupid night-club-im-so-fucking-tough streetfighter who wants to marry UFC cause its absolutely the best in martial arts action. YEAH!

lol..

get real. today's streets? who the hell do you think you are? martial arts were developed that long ago because they werea dn are effective? what's the diff between today's and yesterday's streets anyway, friend? more guns? in that case buddy, bring along some kevlar armor b/c no martial art will help you in a shootout

[bartjam]

what's the diff between today's and yesterday's streets anyway, friend?

Get yourself a brain, you little twat

Otherwise, enjoy your wank

[tkd_person89]

twat..? how old are you? lol

i find you quite amusing. please, do continue. you're really funny and i enjoy hysterics.

oh and you didnt quote abou tmy little gun comment there... maybe because... i was right? GASP

[BoarSpear]

So bartjam...We are all awaiting your vast knowledge and expertise on the Chinese martial arts...if you want to say it sucks...state why you think so...

Dont tell me to try fighting with it, i have fought using the principles. They worked really well thank you very much.

Anyone Know anything about Xie Pei Xi? Try and tell me that old dude didnt know how to fight. He wasnt flowery to watch, but his strikes and grip were astounding even in his later years.

[tkd_person89]

Most traditional martial arts are awesome.

Let's see bartjam try to take on Grandmaster Hee Il Cho (TKD).

How about bartjam vs Bruce Lee (Wing Chun)?

Him vs Choi Bae Dal a.k.a Mas Oyama (Kyokushin Karate)?

Him vs Jet Li (Wushu)?

Something to think about. He might then argue that these UFC or PRIDE guys would win against the men I listed above. But that would just be another sad, pathetic argument. Most of the UFC guys these days are muscled and are strong(which is a good thing) but don't have nearly the skill and technique as some of these legendary and reknowned traditional MA masters. In fact, most of the UFC guys these days just roll around on the ground anywya, using grappling arts like BJJ.

I dunno if this works or not since I have never tried it before...I converted some OLD footage of Xie Pei Xi. you should be able to download it here. its probably a fairly long download but you'll own it.

Let me know how it goes...or if anyone knows how to transfer ts video files to the net...


i have more of these clips but until i know if you can see this one i aint postin anymore...

Come on man!!! Don't you know that the only effective street fighting technique is the single leg takedown? Do't you read this forum? Sheesh!

[bartjam]

What's your I.Q. little dickless wonders?

Not much more than that of an handicapped monkey, I suppose :-P

Yes your unbeatable CMA will save your ass. Yeah right... Dream on
