need help gonna take on wing chun guy, wat should i do?

[cyco]

mk, i've been doin muay thai for years now, n a guy from my high school wants to vs me, his wing chun vs my muay thai... my teacher told me just target one of his legs, but me n one of my mates at my club were talkin about going straight in to the clinch and show him te meaning of elbows and knees... i bloody own at knees i love them not even my teacher can hold the bag for me when i get into them n he weighs about 25kgs more then me lol..

so wat are ur ideas, just tell me at the moment we will be fighting brute force style a my club (no eye gauging no groin kicks, no biting muay thai at its best no restrictions)

when muay thai beat every kung fu master sent over to thailand they said it wasnt a martial art... they thought that was an insult, muay thai is not a martial art it was created after thousands of years of war it is a way of life and it is the best street fighting technique because it is about fighting to kill not for bloody points they hit u, u take it, u hit them they go down

Chinese Kung Fu is not designed to defend effectively against muay thai leg kicks.

If you're grappling be careful of his elbows, kung fu also has killer elbows.

Your fitness will probably be better than his, and from my experience you will be lighter on your feet so able to use your range more effectively. Also the kung fu guard is different, they generally have one hand protecting their sternum which creates an opening around their head. They also have very quick hands, but from what I've seen, not so much power behind their punches...certainly not like muay thai.

Just watch some win chun videos on youtube but I wouldn't worry about it..chin down and guard up..

I don't have much experience with WC (other than those elements that found their way in to JKDC), but I would use Thai leg kicks to set up an entry, then close the range, clinch and knee. Also I'd try to rely on good strong teeps to keep the fight in kicking range until I was ready to close to clinch range. I'd try not to hang out in punching range, as that's where a WC guy is likely to be most comfortable, unless I were confident that I was a lot faster or more skilled.

If you have to ask us, then you are in trouble. Run like Hell. LOL

better advice than mine

[cyco]

LOL, im asking 4 advice cause i have no real idea wat wing chun is, i just know that they follow a traditionalist style n they only use counters, so its the ultimate aggressive fighting stly vs the ultimate defensive style


plus is i've seen him practice before, he hasnt seen my training before, n im from one of those muay thai clubs who r big into body conditioning so im used to takng alot of pain

Oh one of those Muay Thai clubs!.

It depends on how long this guy has been doing wing chun and how good he is.

[cyco]

his being doing it for 12 years supposobley, but i kinda think thats exagarating, n his kinda plump, not fat, but it shows his place isnt a full on fitness place, cause to be good at ay fighting style u have to be fit lol

16 turnin 17 in sep, n yeh i'll video it

[cyco]

i'll need to do one more thing though, i need to figure out how many rounds he wants to do, and how long the breaks are between rounds, boxing which is a minute or muay thai which is two minutes lol

GO THE AUSSIES

[cyco]

hmmm, the words of a wise man... we arent really friends but we dont not like eachother either we just want to see who would win a fight, its most likely gonna be at my muay thai place, cause id rather have a person their to ref then just sock it out with him on the side of the road somewhere lol... i think we're having everything in the match, im taller and most likely stronger but he out weighs me a bit, not in muscle though... if u get wat i mean

[Dan_The_Man]

Please film this!

Garland has given you a lot of good advice. I'm glad you set it up as a Sparring match instead of a fight to the death street brawl. Anybody who has been training for 12 years is a dangerous fighter, don't take him too lightly.
