Kung Fu and MMA

[jubaji]

You met a kung fu practitioner here, a K-1 fighter there, and you mention those things as a way of making it seem that you have knowledge and real experience in those disciplines. based off of who you've met rather than off of what you have practiced yourself..

That is exactly NOT what I do, you lying weasel.

[jubaji]

Furey always seems to meet these "masters" and two weeks later creates a cutting edge program based on those two weeks that is supposedly unbelievably incredible.

That sounds a lot like what you're making you experience with school wrestling to be. .

That sounds absolutely nothing like anything I've ever said, you lying dirtbag.

[jubaji]

Your bio reads like something Furey would use to sell people riverdancing as an "ancient lost art" used for self defense. .

Have you ever seen me trying to sell people anything as an 'ancient lost art'? Yes or no, you lying piece of shit.

[jubaji]

What would you suggest for self defense? .

I would suggest that it is a matter of many things, chief among them common sense (which leaves you right out).

I would certainly suggest that it is not dependent upon buying Package A, or Program B, or pretending to channel the spirit of a WWII 'superman,' a Civil War reenactor, or Sir Gawain, no matter what some huckster tries to sell to fearful simpletons.

I would suggest self defense is well served by physical fitness, skill, and non-role play experience.

I would suggest that training with weapons, of whatever type and to whatever degree is appropriate to the situation and environment one expects to find oneself in is a good idea.

I would also suggest that spending thousands of hours and dollars to have some theory-boy asshole tell you to "be aware" is a total scam.

I would say start with 'don't be stupid,' but again that leaves you right out.

[jubaji]

Of course you were. You knew it was coming .

Of course, because I know exactly what a pathetic clown you are. The other comments were for people I actually respect, which leaves you right out, theory-boy.

[jubaji]

he's WAY too busy to post anything of substance...or to train.

Yeah, I only managed 4 hours today, sorry.

[jubaji]

The majority of his time is spent while looking for people to ridicule and insult

That doesn't take any time at all as long as you're around, Excrement.

This is a technique Boringspear was very fond of; the 'let's play Jr. profiler' technique. Guessing games are fun, but rarely accurate. Now, I don't know if you've had some personal experience with this Furey fella that makes you hate him so much, but insulting his wife seems a bit much. I suppose it should come as no surprise from someone of your low character, but it's still inappropriate. Particularly considering he is not here to speak for himself (hint, hint - wrong again, shitforbrains).

No one needs to profile someone when its obvious.

And you jubaji ... are completely obvious.

[Uke]

LOL! I was waiting for this!

Of course you were. You knew it was coming as you were typing and and it showed.

Saying things like "I'm not trying to be evasive" and "I have to concentrate to better answer you" are all telltale signs of someone who is trying to avoid admitting that they are full of it.

Hehehehe ... it's a damn shame.

[TTEscrima]

And there you have the musings of someone who tries to pass off buzzwords and popular MA proverbs(punch is a punch, kick is a kick) in place of a decent answer. Jubaji even acknowledges the fact that he's evasive by preemptively denying it, and then goes on to blame a lack of time(popping in and out) for the semantics and bubble gum wisdom he's passing off as advice. Who spends more time on this site than jubaji? Who has written as many replies( I wouldn't even call them posts) as he has? When has jubaji ever lacked the time to offer up his brand of what some might call a contribution?

Its amazing that when anyone who has years of study and practice in a particular background tries to put into words his thoughts and ideas, jubaji will magically show up. Yet when its time to talk turkey(facts and common sense found in a circle of people who do a thing) jubaji is "popping in and out". His answers require concentration that he at any given moment when asked cannot afford then and there.

And since when has anyone who has studied a discipline and its concepts for years have to concentrate in order to answer a question about it? That really deserves a .... There's a specialness about this place, I tell ya. Have any of you noticed that when jubaji tries to discuss anything that requires actual technical knowledge, his posts are always apologetic and remorseful for his lack of time and focus? That's no coincidence.

He's much too busy "patrolling" the net to actually practice anything except his typing skills. He'll be glad to correct your typos or misspellings though. The majority of his time is spent while looking for people to ridicule and insult, but he's WAY too busy to post anything of substance...or to train.

[jubaji]

I remember you telling Boarspear that you had wrestled a mongolian. .

Yes, I have. Have you?

[jubaji]

I said it years ago and I'll say it now: You have the Matt Furey stench all over you. If you aren't that ugly lazy-eyed conehead himself, you probably have "single-white-femaled" him and patterned your entire life around his, starting out with marrying the ugliest chinese woman you could find in a mail order bride catalog because no non-blind women in America would even shake your hand..

So basically aside from shaking hands and playing tag with people who actually can and do fight, you play high school wrestling. If anyone read through your paragraph, they would see that you've basically talked more about where you've visited and who you've met while there than any thing else. It became even more apparent after reading your young man's tale. Now, after reading your self written bio it's a concrete fact that outside of your matches on a college school mat you have no idea what self defense is. Anyone can call anything self defense, but it doesn't make it worth a damn.

This is a good start. In this paragraph we see an attempt to discredit experience that you cannot claim yourself. Excrement also likes this technique. It screams about the insecurity you both have about your own experiences, which is nice. Also, it includes a classic pUke-ism of angrily disdaining any training that actually involves breaking a sweat or doing anything beyond playing 'make pretend.'

[jubaji]

LOL! I was waiting for this! I guess it took pointing out his humiliation over on the boxing thread to motivate him enough.

The entertainment has begun, now let's look at pUke's little bitch-fest point by point. Of course, he won't respond to most points, but at least readers can see what a little hollow bitch he is.

Thanks for the confirmation, but we already knew

Let's see, I started wrestling when I was 7, and have been doing that ever since. After college I decided to head over to China and see what was going on over there. Got a job in Xi'an and studied taijiquan with Chen Quanzhong and KF at a school in the Muslim quarter there for two years (when not working, of course). Also found the provincial wrestling team and worked out regularly with them while I was there. Met some nice folks during my time there, including some Japanese teachers. They were so nice in fact that when my contract was up I headed over to Japan and got a job there. A few jobs actually. Was there off and on for about three years I guess. Practiced kendo, nihon kempo, and aikido while I was there. Also found a local wrestling club and worked out with them. Also ran into assorted other folks studying this and that and worked out with them when we had time. One guy was a WC guy, a few others were ninjutsu guys (got to jump into a practice with Hatsumi sensei once) some were K-1 fighters, some were judoka, all sorts of folks. Back in the States I've kept on wrestling (of course) and done a little of this and that as time and work allow. I've worked out and sparred with TKD, taekkyon, boxing, MMA, BJJ, WC, ninjutsu, American kempo, san shou, etc. whatever I could try my hand at. But wrestling is always my main thing and I make it a point to wrestle 3-4 times a week (although I was recently laid up after surgery and just before that something much more important kept me too busy to hit the mat for a while).

So, that's about it. We usually spend a week or two in Kyoto each year if we can to visit family, and work takes me to Korea and China every now and again (but there's usually no time for 'training' on such trips).

See, now we are getting somewhere.

So basically aside from shaking hands and playing tag with people who actually can and do fight, you play high school wrestling. If anyone read through your paragraph, they would see that you've basically talked more about where you've visited and who you've met while there than any thing else.

What would you suggest for self defense? Irish knuckle boxing???? Catch wrestling? Or would you suggest ... wait for it ... Mongolian Wrestling? Hahaha ... I remember you telling Boarspear that you've never done mongolian wrestling but you had wrestled a mongolian. Is that it?

Your bio reads like something Furey would use to sell people riverdancing as an "ancient lost art" used for self defense. Furey always seems to meet these "masters" and two weeks later creates a cutting edge program based on those two weeks that is supposedly unbelievably incredible.

That sounds a lot like what you're making you experience with school wrestling to be. You met a kung fu practitioner here, a K-1 fighter there, and you mention those things as a way of making it seem that you have knowledge and real experience in those disciplines. You softly touch on the fact that you don't, aside from two years of chen "thunder style" taiji, but still waste everyone else's time with your nonsense and suppositions based off of who you've met rather than off of what you have practiced yourself.

Not that anyone needed it, but thanks for the confirmation.

I think its great that you have traveled and wrestled. I'm sure you have a lot to offer by way of stories and knowledge about sport collegiate wrestling. But one thing doesn't translate to another, and your history of cynical commentary on this site has been exposed as a thinly veiled attempt to mask your own limitations. No one has been as evasive as you have been and continue to be.

That's just it, "this is technique X and that is technique Y" doesn't really come up when shit's going down. It's not like cartoons and bad movies where the 'hero' calls out each technique as he hurls it at his opponent. A lot of things, like when to push and when to pull, when to be strong and when to 'yield' and all that are somewhat universal and certainly things I was familiar with long before I got to TCMA. At a certain level, a punch is a punch is a kick is a kick is a throw, etc. Not meaning to be evasive, but that's how I see it. Or maybe I'm just not considering your question carefully enough right now. I'm just popping in and out of here while working on other things that require more concentration.

I will say that my wrestling experience enhanced and was positively influenced by every other thing I've trained.

And there you have the musings of someone who tries to pass off buzzwords and popular MA proverbs(punch is a punch, kick is a kick) in place of a decent answer. Jubaji even acknowledges the fact that he's evasive by preemptively denying it, and then goes on to blame a lack of time(popping in and out) for the semantics and bubble gum wisdom he's passing off as advice.

Good grief.

At least it makes sense that you berate nearly every other discipline besides wrestling now. You have to believe that with wrestling you can do anything or at least convince other that you believe that because your entire combat dogma is predicated on that silly idea. And that's why when anyone introduces weapons and multiple attackers into the debate, you simply write

Jubaji can't discuss those things because once you do your ideas and training have no answers for them except for to suplex them. To jubaji if there's a problem, just wrestle it. If there's a knife, wrestle that too. If there are multiple attackers, you HAVE to run because you can always outrun a street thug because they can't wrestle. If you can't run, throw down the gauntlet and wrestle them all one by one while each mugger waits their turn. Either that or jubaji will promise you that multiple attackers don't exist.

All this explains why jubaji has posted more than just about anyone here but 99.9% of his posts criticize but do not inform whatsoever. He's a critic with a bag of tomatoes sitting in the audience willing to boo and chant but his fear of getting on the stage in an effort to give back paralyzes him.

Hopefully we'll get to read Furey's ...ahem... I mean jubaji's answers when he does have the time to apply the necessary "concentration" and focus.
