Here is a video of a bjj guy(the blond one) getting beat by a Hapkido guy http://dankim79.sites.uol.com.br/dis..._bjj_final.wmv

WOW..hapkido has really changed in the last few years. >>I always said that hapkido's true roots were in ancient thailand. Glad to see a return to the real style. HAPKIDO RULES!

[Mr. Gordo]

That was BJJ? I've seen and practiced BJJ. He's like a white belt right?

[Bjjexpertise@be]

That must've been the shitiest takedown I've ever seen. He doesn't even grab a leg after he gets close. He just shoots in and then turtles up. And that doesn't count since he was asian. A BJJ fight only counts when the fighter has brazillian blood in him .

[Tom Yum]

The fight counts, but the BJJ guy was rather passive compared to other BJJ fighters in events like UFC, Pride and KOTC. I don't understand Korean, but can anyone verify what the BJJ guys rank was? I hold a black brown belt in HKD and trained hard for about 5 years and can honestly say that the skill level in terms of grappling and takedowns is somewhere between a BJJ white belt and blue belt. That level in BJJ can be attained within 8 months to 14 months.

I was one of the more competitive and dedicated students in the Hapkido class, so that tells you where the average is...

...did you ever visit the motherland of Siam?

...did you ever visit the motherland of Siam?

hehe....well, I listened to that song by Murray Head called "One Night in Bangkok." Does that count ?

One Night in Bangkok
By Head Murray

Bangkok, Oriental setting
And the city don't know that the city is getting
The creme de la creme of the chess world in a
Show with everything but Yul Brynner

Time flies - doesn't seem a minute
Since the Tirolean spa had the chess boys in it
All change - don't you know that when you
Play at this level there's no ordinary venue

It's Iceland... or the Philippines... or Hastings... or... or this place!

COMPANY:
One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
You'll find a god in every golden cloister
And if you're lucky then the god's a she
I can feel an angel sliding up to me

THE AMERICAN:
One town's very like another
When your head's down over your pieces, brother

COMPANY:
It's a drag, it's a bore, it's really such a pity
To be looking at the board, not looking at the city

THE AMERICAN:
Whaddya mean? Ya seen one crowded, polluted, stinking town...

COMPANY:
Tea, girls, warm, sweet, sweet
Some are set up in the Somerset Maugham suite

THE AMERICAN:
Get Thai'd! You're talking to a tourist
Whose every move's among the purest
I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine

COMPANY:
One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
Not much between despair and ecstasy
One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
Can't be too careful with your company
I can feel the devil walking next to me

THE AMERICAN:
Siam's gonna be the witness
To the ultimate test of cerebral fitness
This grips me more than would a
Muddy old river or reclining Buddha

And thank God I'm only watching the game, controlling it

I don't see you guys rating
The kind of mate I'm contemplating
I'd let you watch, I would invite you
But the queens we use would not excite you

So you better go back to your bars, your temples, your massage parlours

COMPANY:
One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
You'll find a god in every golden cloister
A little flesh, a little history
I can feel an angel sliding up to me

One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
Not much between despair and ecstasy
One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
Can't be too careful with your company
I can feel the devil walking next to me

aw man I watched an 8 minute long video for like a crappy 30 sec fight. Why did the ref do TKO? was that guys knee hurting? If it wasnt then that was really dumb. that guy was goign to get him in a guard.

[SamuraiGuy]

Dont think that was hapkido beating BJJ just that one guy really owning the other one... didnt seem like style effected much... the guy went in to grab at his legs... then stopped... then the other guy punched him... then kneed him from a superior position... and then just kept it up... especially with that slam which was given to him when he got behind.... I think it wasnt hapkido beating BJJ but just a good fighter beating a bad one... and I really have no Bias towards either art... sooo just my thoughts.

[CKD]

The guy is pure hapkido. So I think I have to look at Hapkido differently from know on. They are know capable of taking on a bjj blue belt, with no previous vt or street experience with one leg that he is barely able to walk on because of a fight he had before the match with the Hapkido guy Sorry I was waiting for some Hapkido dudes to come and brag and then bring this tidbit of info.

[EmptyneSs]

the hapkido guy uses a pretty cool wrestling takedown/suplex type thing.

[Ahoym8e]

with one leg that he is barely able to walk on because of a fight he had before the match with the Hapkido guy

Whaaaa????


they fought before the match too?

[CKD]

Whaaaa????


they fought before the match too?

Yes this was a tournament match. The BJJ guy had an badly injured leg from the match before and that was why he was so sloppy and could barely stand.

[Ahoym8e]

ahhh, Ok.

I read it as though the bjj guy had a fight with the Hapkido guy before the match...

duh...
