You can see how this fits into the Jeet Kune Do Concepts curriculum. The trapping movements are similar to Wing Chun...at least to my beginner-level eyes.
@ahmadndila many of what you train your body an dmind in silat is not allowed in the UFC. I am only 5'8" and hitting and bitting the face or hitting joints is my main way to defend. Some guys who do train Silat do cage fighting but they have to do a lot of modifications. Is nto the same fighting for a sport than fighting for your life and the training in silat is that of fighting for your life. Hope this helps since they are other great styles that work great in war but not in a sporting event.
it's banned because of the small joint manipulations, basically silat is too violent (it does lasting damage - unlike just punching or choking someone).
It would be at an unfair advantage because the silat practitioner would just break the fingers/wrists/elbows/arms/neck/whatever of their opponent.
@ahmadndila well because its not very effective in a real combat situation. These kind of stuff might work for after school fights or fighting someone who has never fought a real fight in his life, but if you fight someone who has done boxing or muy tai, you will need something more than this.
@ahmadndila ring or sport arts are not the same as combat and self defense arts. both are to be respected but not compared. imagine if you threw a straight razor into the octagon..whole different ballgame huh? remember last season of tuf when they had marines train with the fighters? last thing a soldier wants is to go to the ground and grapple. every art deserves respect and has it's place. but they don't always cross over into all areas. hell, look at tyson biting off that ear! best wishes..
Systema anyone?
