these martial arts techniques are good but for real life application sometimes not so useful. For example to be a complete fighter one must know how to grapple and wrestle if the fight goes to the ground.
the karate dude had no experience froom fighting it seemed he was far to stiff in his shoulders and did barely dare to attack. i bet that if he just was more used to fighting ehsan would get his but kicked
@xarran you seem to just throw the words before doing the fucking researches, it depends on the martial art, Kung fu is using all the body, while taekwando uses only legs , taekwando is only offensive while Kung fu is offensive and defensive.
@dark50killer Well, att first it was just for defense against bandits so the monks could protect themselves, it's also medication and meditation for them so I agree with you.
@dark50killer Tae Kwon Do isn't only legs. It is not only offensive. You are just ignorant. I don't care if your comment was 4 months ago. No one corrected you. What martial art doesn't use all of the body?
I have trained martial arts for nearly 19 years yet, kung fu wing chun, taekwondo, jiu jitsu, ju jutsu, judo and now I train MMA ... although the battle gates are united today like mma, but there are different styles. making kung fu and taekwondo is not the same! this man has a background in taekwondo more than kung fu. he is very hard and stiff as you should be in taekwondo, where the kung fu you should be much softer and it that guy is not! :)
everyone shut your mouths if these guys were any good they would be fighting in real MMA?????????. im sure all of you say thats not what theyre about ?? but why fight in third world tourneys if you dont fight for MONEY,RECOGNITION,FURTHER YOUR SPORT? grow up little nigger babies 'no racism intended' and fight anderson silva or anyone from ufc. TY love Pizss1
@pizss1 have you ever heard in UFC "LIVE FROM KABUL!" ? Then shut the fuck up. UFC is not the end all be all of fighting sports organizations, it's as watered down as any fighting organization. It just happens to be the one that pays the most since it's the most popular. Has nothing to do with how tough it is, just how well its marketed. That is why Dana White is rich.
Also, UFC favours ground fighting and striking just isn't that important anymore which is why poor boxers do OK with just BJJ.
@backflipnori I'm not talking about ufc; I mean to be a good fighter in general you have to evolve. The most effective way to evolve is to adapt other styles to compliment your strengths.
The ironic thing about Ehsan's style is that you're more in danger when you try attacking, then when you're in defense. That's what makes him so lethal.
@gullyzz ...Ehsan Shafiq is also Champion in the United States at sucking cock. All this guys videos are highlights only. GAY! He wouldn't last 1 minute against a KYOKUSHIN fighter. Look it up! Until then he's just a guy who beats people with no technique. Nothing to be proud of.....
he is not a kung fu fighter man!! his style is a taekwondo style.. he only like kung fu thats why he call him self a kung fu fighter but HE IS a TAEKWONDO fighter
just to let u know, all martial arts today are descending from kungfu...kung fu is the base cz it is the first martial art practiced by mans and then peoples from different country learned it and have teach it outside china, under different names, and developed it to became a martial art itself. But in the beginning all has derived from kungfu excepting some rare martial arts.So it is normal to thing that kungfu look like taekwondo, but in fact it is taekwondo that look like kungfu
Why do we always have to discuss politics? Politics aside, this guy (who I see in many videos) has awsome timing for his spin kick and he throws a round kick - real fast snap off his knee check. That's something to perfect. Im an MMA fighter with many years fo traditional martial arts and full contact competition. But that's a technique I'd like to perfect. Politics can be discussed on other forums.
so nice... but it's nice too if he fight the member of Kyokushin karate or jiu jitsu... try to watch the video of Kyokushin karate or jiu jitsu... then compare... very nice to let them fight jejejeje... but i still congratulate you ehsan
if you practice martial arts and have some knowledge of them, there are different kinds of martial arts, aggressive kinds like karate, TKD and MT and some more tactical like kung fu and aikido so kung fu bases are strategic, wait to the opponent to attack you and look for the weak spot, using speed and accuracy depending on the major style of the fighter but mainly kung fu is based on the flow of life and energy so they just redirect their enemy strength.
Proud of you Ostaza...MASHALAH...Those days no man was that confidnce to face Ehsan beacuse he was the real deal...I was his student and now i understand how to kick some ass..lolololol...
I never knew that "武术" is also pronounced wushu in Japanese. I thought in Japanese it is pronounced "Bujutsu"? Because "wushu" is mandarin for martial arts
i hate how karate and tkd fighters and never keep there hands up protecting there head. in a street/club fight there gonna get knocked the fark out by a punch.
This is TKD vs. TKD, not Kung fu vs. Karate. In case any of you haven't figured it out yet, this Ehsan Shafiq guy is a fraud. He may be a good TKD fighter. But all his crap about being the founder of Kung Fu and about being a master in every single martial art is really rather pathetic.
@cmachinist His father was a kung fu master in Afghanistan before you were born and won several kung fu titles...Ehsan learned everything he knows today from his father, so you say he is a fraud...maybe you are the one who is a fraud making up a stupid comment
@cmachinist omfg u are a flamer troll hahaha you dont know anything yet you talk a lot about things i bet you dont even know the difference or have ever practice any martial art kung fu have different forms and styles its not hard based martial art so you may find tiger style dragon drunk style and many other like monkey and people outside a shaolin temple wont learn more than 1 at a time in a perfect way so like this guy he concentrated in 1 style only or simply by a more aggressive form.
@elvengadordejuegos el pendejo estupido sos vos no importa el arte sino el practicante podes hacer kung fu y ser una mierda todo depende del practicante ningun arte marcial es mejor o superior todo depende de la persona
no they just have such a disregard for life that they can put a certain amount of people through almost impossible training and find one or to that can take it without dying
why do people overate dis ehsan shafiq? yes hes good but he aint the best! an expert wing chun practioner would take him down EASILY especially after seeing this video!
seth petruzelli this guy can beat up beat seth up dont doubt that martial artist are more experienced and have more wisdom seth is only could cause kimbo tripped if there was a rematch and he won again then maybe there would be a chance but he didnt so theres not :)
those mma and ufc fighters are so worthless, all they can do is basic kicks and punches, they have no technique and no flexibility for that matter. After one kick there all worn out cuz they put all there energy into that one kick They look like fat, big kids who just kick and punch at random for the sake of landing a lucky one.
oh, i'm sorry mister ''i've never taken a belt exam in any martial art but i'm still an expert''. you said UFC fighters can't kick, i'm showing you one that can, so suck it.
and not just in tests, in his last match, the opponent, Ruben ''Warpath'' Villareal, took 5 low kicks from Bas and couldn't stand anymore. so he does have some serious power when it comes to kicking.
I'm going to have to side with Moosh. Unless your talking about the asthetics and style of a kick, the arguement that "UFC fighters don't kick", is fairly ignorant.
Ever heard of Mirco Cro Cop?
Furthermore, it extends way past UFC, and into sports like K1 and Pancrase. MMA fighters tend to get demonized by people who view fighting styles as being an art first and a fighting method second.
MMA is safer than American boxing, and MMA fighters rarely suffer long-term brain damage.
my point is, he's an UFC fighter and he can kick = UFC fighters can kick. if kung fu has so good grappling technicues, why hasn't any kung fu master gone and beaten the snot out of the Gracies? that would show the world once and for all that kung fu is superior. wich isn't true btw, might be the reason why it hasn't happened. and Bas actually is a decent streetfighter. he even teaches his own ''lethel street defence system'', in wich the major focus is in groin kicks and such attacks.
and if you haven't seen people use their hips in an UFC fight, then you're not looking right or just can't see it because you're hell bent in trying to make everyone believe that MMA sucks. maybe if you didn't have such a hard on for tornado kicks and shit you migt be able to see the truth.
i agree that MMA fighters do kick but mma is not fully integrated yet. most of what you see in MMA is muay thai, BJJ, wrestling and boxing, fighters like bas and anderson sliva do kick and do so very well but mma is a very young sport and needs time to grow
chesbro - your comments on MMA fighters and they dont know martial arts is the most ridiculous comment ive ever heard. Most if not all MMA fighters, professional especially have extensive martial arts experience in 1 if not 2 disciplines before entering MMA.
Ok, try telling that to their kicking techniques ^^, and grappling and punching too, though they punch pretty good... kindda like boxing. MMA is a glorified kickboxing.
they know martial arts, just not the traditional kinds like kung fu. but kung fu doesnt normally have to power behind those hits to take down a full grown man in that hit. and with mma they have to consider being taken down. many of them can throw the funky spin kicks, but they consentrate on strait forward attacks where they can see their opponent, and blocking/countering. all the fancy stuff really doesnt help in a real fight, unless its against somone with no training at all.
They can't even do the kicks they do properly, they are, in the lack of a better term, stiff... they are all muscle, if they knew how to throw kicks (NOT FLASHY KICKS, JUST KICKS, LIKE THEY SOMETIMES THROW) they (the kicks) would be extremely powerful.
they look stiff, but what they do is effective no doubt because if not, dont you think somone would come in doing kung fu and beat them? think about it
They are stiff, and i don't know why there isn't any kung fu master, i don't really know the rules of those tournaments or what you have to do to get there.
But 2 things, first... you could really get hurt... and all for nothing... just to get paid i guess...
And kung fu takes time, practice and skill, not just lifting weight and punching a bag, so most 25yr olds who want to "fight fight fight" won't practice it.
U saw all those jumps that Shafiq was doing? you cant do that against a good boxer. The guy in the video couldnt box. Think about how long ur in the air during a kick
He doesn't spend that much time in the air, and he kicks as a counter to other kicks, he's not stupid... and fucking UFC fighters can't even turn their hips to do the simplest kick.
And just to add something forcing the technique:
against a boxer you can break his knees with a jumping kick or hit the lower body section.
Against a kickboxer you can use it as a counter when he throws a lame ass kick.
Why does every ignorant compares martial arts to MMA?
Kung fu has very effective grappling techniques and punches, not that he needs to use them, he could definitely KO any pumped MMA noob wo thinks he's good with a couple of kicks.
err, because MMA is short for mixed martial arts? and what do you mean he ''doesn't have to use them''? grappling is a very essential part of any martial arts, and shouldn't be discarded. also, no fights are won or loss before they are over. put this guy in the cage with chuck liddel and we'll see how good he is. i'm not saying that he's a lousy fighter, just that chuck is one of the best out there. and in the immortal words of never back dow: to be the best, you got to take out the best.
MMA and UFC fighters are just big guys throwing crappy punches and low, slow and weak kicks, and then getting down on the floor and throwing some even crappier punches down there after wrestling a little bit.
And i said that he wouldn't need to use them because the fight wouldn't get that far ^^.
To clarify: No MMA or UFC fighter knows martial arts.
Another thing: i just saw a couple of fights of chuck liddell... crappy guard, punches, and balance.
and still he has 21 wins(14KO). pretty good for someone that crappy eh? and chuck DOES know martial arts, he started karate when he was 12. and i think that Ehsan would find himself in the mat pretty soon, since 70% of MMA fighters like to take the fight to the ground. it could be an interesting match tho.
To clarify: i know, chuck does have a rather strange fighting stance, but the rrecord speaks for itself ^^
so what you are saying is that flashy kung fu jump kicks are more effective then a mix of let's say brasilian ju-jutsu, kickboxin and karate, where all the technicues have been stripped down to the basic, most effective form?
the techniques are not existent, not basic, not simple, non...
brasilian ju-jitsu is a pretty good martial art, so is karate, though neither one of them is as complete as kung fu, they are really good and effective, kick boxing is even worse than box when it comes to technique.
That being said, MMA and UFC fighters don't know either karate nor ju-jitsu, or, they "know" the techniques but they don't know them well enough to use them.
Though flashy kicks are pretty good to cover distance and get some unusual angles, they are a really small part of kung fu... kung fu has a los of foot work, punches, grappling (chin na). In some styles there barely are any kicks...
So, a question, do you even practice any martial art?
i used to do taekwondo and hapkido, nowadays i'm in to boxing.
and if MMA fighters don't know any martial arts, then why are so many of them using brasilian JJ? and yes, the technicues are made simple, because complex technicues are nearly impossible to do in a real fight. sure, you can do all the wristlocks in the world when practising in the gym, but try them agnaist a real opponen who's only goal is to kick your teeths in.
and flashy kicks are good for nothing. you can cover the distance with normal kicks too, without risking getting attacked while mid-air and falling flat on your ass.
my point is, that if you really can't see UFC fighters for what they are, that is some of the best fighters in the world, then you are either a novice in martial arts or just ignorant ''kung fu rulz'' fanboy
"UFC champions" are just big guys with no skills, if you can't see martial arts for what they are, then you're either a novice or just an ignorant "UFC rulz" fanboy.
Those you call "flashy kicks" are.... i don't know the name in english... (when you make your opponent think that you're gonna do something and then you do some other thing) and then kicks from different angles, so you can land them. And UFC fighters can't pull them off, in fact, those you call "basic" techniques are all wrong.
I didn't have enough space... bruce lee basicaly said "practice any martial art, but use your hips", and that's something that every martial art does if the movements are done well. But UFC fighters can't even do "basic" or "simple" techniques right.
So, stop talking crap and defending something with no knowledge to back it up.
if the UFC guys suck so much, why aren't there a bunch of kung fu master in their place, making the ridicilously large amount of money that the UFC guys get? randy couture for example has his own brand of clothing, and liddel makes a crazy paycheck from every fight. if they are so much better then UFC fighters, surely they would have no problem conquering UFC right?
Well i did some kung fu but never went to any exams... and now i'm doing tae kwon do and i'm planning on taking the exams, and i'm also training on my own.
Point is: kung fu is better than UFC, karate, JJ, etc. are better than UFC, cause in UFC noone fights like they should. They're just regular thugs... well... maybe a liiitlle better than the regular ones ^^.
i hae a blue belt in hapkido and a segond grade green belt in taekwondo. bakc in gollege(or the closest thing ressembling a gollege we have here in finland) my gym teacher had been doing martial arts for nearly 20 years, 1.dan black belt in karate and 4.dan BB in ju-jutsu, and he was a national cham level kickboxer. we had many long and in-depth talks about martial arts, so i think i know something about them. you should watch the fighting science videos by National Geographic, (TBC)
Talking about "which style is better than the other" is the most primitive and childish argument there is. This has been going on since the dawn of time.
I've been studying Kung Fu for 7 years, and can tell you that 95% of Kung Fu students/black betls will get their asses KILLED by UFC fighters. Fact.
To moosh: Not everything is about power, and in fight science there are 2 things you didn't consider:
1º the kung fu guy wighted no more than 60kg TOPS.
2º Kung fu has a lot of styles, not just drunken boxing and what is now known as "traditional wushu" wich are both styles that "sacrifice" power in order to get better angles.
And to Aheyne: If kung fu is that much worse than UFC? why do you even practice it? Go practice MMA.
how about the muay thai fighter, he wasn't all that big either? and it's funny how you mentioned bruce lee earlier, seeing how bruce was pretty much the first, or at least the most famous, MMA fighter ever, and here you keep dissing MMA.
yeah, MMA fighters only know how to fight effectivily with nothing but their bare hands, using their body as a weapon, whereas martial arts are about how to fight effectivily with nothing but their bare hands, using their body as a weapon. wait...
Kung fu ISN'T worse. It's how modern practitioners train. Most don't condition themselves, strengthen their muscles, or practice FULL contact FULL Speed FULL Strength fighting.
That's how you learn kungfu once you know the basics.
i should have mentioned this before, but i don't think that kung fu sucks or anything, i just think that there is no such thing as ''most superior martial art''. that's why the MMA guys are so good, thay don't have just one style, but several.
My point is that MMA fighters don't know any martial art... they can't kick properly, nor keep a side stance and when they hit they just throw a couple of pretty good jabs, and then start to throw their hands everyehere.
in the fighting science video about MMA fighters, you can clearly see how they turn their whole body to the punch, in a real fight they have to do it so fast in order to punch several times that you just can't see it, and franky, with your experience in martial arts, i'm not suprised
Ok, like i said before, stay in your ignorance, if you can't see that they can't fight properly, well too bad, go see MMA, listen to hip hop, watch hollywood movies, and keep the attitude, i don't really care. But if you do care, get some info.
i HAVE the info, one of my schoolmates was in to MMA, i know they can fight and they know martial arts. i've never said that kung fu sucks, i just think that there is no such thing as a superior martila art, unlike you seem to think that kung fu rules everything. i'm sure that kung fu is effective, it has been around for over a thousand years, surely for a reason, but there is this one thing you haven't taken in to account: evolution(tbc)
martila arts are all effective, sure, but they all have weaknesses. since MMA fighters know many different martial artthey can minimize those weaknesses. you, my friend, are the ignorant one here.
That is just stupid and unfounded... you can't minimize weaknesses of martial arts, first off martial arts have different techniques, wich in each case has different adventages or disadventages, for instance, a lateral kick is really powerful, but you can't throw it if the other guy is right next to you, a "jab" is not that much strong, but it's waaay faster than a hook, and doesn't open that much your guard.
so kicks are powerful but can't be used in closed quarters, whereas a liver blow is powerful too but requires the opponent to be close to you = using technicues of one martial art to minimize the weaknesses of another martial art technicues. did you even read what i posted?
did you read what i've posted? UFC FIGHTERS CAN'T KICK, so nothing about using different techniques. And in any case, using a different technique is not minimizing another technique's "weakness" using a different technique is using a different technique. And martial arts, take kung fu for example, have both kicks and punches, both long distance and short distance.
Ehsan Jan, I am fascinated by your talent, I'm so proud that we have such a talented martial artist from Afghanistan, Do you have any clubs in London? If so where??
yeah he is black belt in Kung Fu, a master infact, from Afghanistan but when he moved to Pakistan, he started karate and had to start from begining (white belt).
In those days, there was no seperation of ranking in tournments. A white belt could be fighting a black belt or even someone heavier than you. My master won his european championships when he was a green belt. These people are amazing i must say.
ehsan shafiq is a practioner of kung fu, where there are no colored belt rankings. i'm guessing it's what they gave him to wear... but he's not a white belt.
In this video, Ehsan is white belt because this is karate, but he is a master in Kung Fu from Afghanistan. As a rule in martial arts, you can be a black belt in one style of martial arts but when u change to another style u have to satrt from the begining.. I am a black belt in WTF Taekwondo, but when I started ITF, I had to start from white again although its the same martial art, but different styles. Thanks bro.
no snap on the kick of his opponent..is that karate?even the stance is more like ballroom dancing haha

This is TKD vs. TKD, not Kung fu vs. Karate. In case any of you haven't figured it out yet, this Ehsan Shafiq guy is a fraud. He may be a good TKD fighter. But all his crap about being the founder of Kung Fu and about being a master in every single martial art is really rather pathetic.

@cmachinist His father was a kung fu master in Afghanistan before you were born and won several kung fu titles...Ehsan learned everything he knows today from his father, so you say he is a fraud...maybe you are the one who is a fraud making up a stupid comment

oh, i'm sorry mister ''i've never taken a belt exam in any martial art but i'm still an expert''. you said UFC fighters can't kick, i'm showing you one that can, so suck it.
and not just in tests, in his last match, the opponent, Ruben ''Warpath'' Villareal, took 5 low kicks from Bas and couldn't stand anymore. so he does have some serious power when it comes to kicking.
Moosh50 2 years ago
I'm going to have to side with Moosh. Unless your talking about the asthetics and style of a kick, the arguement that "UFC fighters don't kick", is fairly ignorant.
Ever heard of Mirco Cro Cop?
Furthermore, it extends way past UFC, and into sports like K1 and Pancrase. MMA fighters tend to get demonized by people who view fighting styles as being an art first and a fighting method second.
MMA is safer than American boxing, and MMA fighters rarely suffer long-term brain damage.
Kammorremae 2 years ago 2
And another thing, if you watch the fight science video, you'll see that he uses his hips, wich i've never seen on a ufc fight.
Chesbor 2 years ago
my point is, he's an UFC fighter and he can kick = UFC fighters can kick. if kung fu has so good grappling technicues, why hasn't any kung fu master gone and beaten the snot out of the Gracies? that would show the world once and for all that kung fu is superior. wich isn't true btw, might be the reason why it hasn't happened. and Bas actually is a decent streetfighter. he even teaches his own ''lethel street defence system'', in wich the major focus is in groin kicks and such attacks.
Moosh50 2 years ago
and if you haven't seen people use their hips in an UFC fight, then you're not looking right or just can't see it because you're hell bent in trying to make everyone believe that MMA sucks. maybe if you didn't have such a hard on for tornado kicks and shit you migt be able to see the truth.

Ok, try telling that to their kicking techniques ^^, and grappling and punching too, though they punch pretty good... kindda like boxing. MMA is a glorified kickboxing.
Chesbor 2 years ago
they know martial arts, just not the traditional kinds like kung fu. but kung fu doesnt normally have to power behind those hits to take down a full grown man in that hit. and with mma they have to consider being taken down. many of them can throw the funky spin kicks, but they consentrate on strait forward attacks where they can see their opponent, and blocking/countering. all the fancy stuff really doesnt help in a real fight, unless its against somone with no training at all.
angryguydan 2 years ago
They can't even do the kicks they do properly, they are, in the lack of a better term, stiff... they are all muscle, if they knew how to throw kicks (NOT FLASHY KICKS, JUST KICKS, LIKE THEY SOMETIMES THROW) they (the kicks) would be extremely powerful.
Chesbor 2 years ago
they look stiff, but what they do is effective no doubt because if not, dont you think somone would come in doing kung fu and beat them? think about it
angryguydan 2 years ago
They are stiff, and i don't know why there isn't any kung fu master, i don't really know the rules of those tournaments or what you have to do to get there.
But 2 things, first... you could really get hurt... and all for nothing... just to get paid i guess...
And kung fu takes time, practice and skill, not just lifting weight and punching a bag, so most 25yr olds who want to "fight fight fight" won't practice it.
Chesbor 2 years ago
Dan is right, thats exactly how I see it too...
U saw all those jumps that Shafiq was doing? you cant do that against a good boxer. The guy in the video couldnt box. Think about how long ur in the air during a kick
deathiscertain 2 years ago
He doesn't spend that much time in the air, and he kicks as a counter to other kicks, he's not stupid... and fucking UFC fighters can't even turn their hips to do the simplest kick.
And just to add something forcing the technique:
against a boxer you can break his knees with a jumping kick or hit the lower body section.
Against a kickboxer you can use it as a counter when he throws a lame ass kick.

Moosh50 3 years ago
Why does every ignorant compares martial arts to MMA?
Kung fu has very effective grappling techniques and punches, not that he needs to use them, he could definitely KO any pumped MMA noob wo thinks he's good with a couple of kicks.
Chesbor 2 years ago
err, because MMA is short for mixed martial arts? and what do you mean he ''doesn't have to use them''? grappling is a very essential part of any martial arts, and shouldn't be discarded. also, no fights are won or loss before they are over. put this guy in the cage with chuck liddel and we'll see how good he is. i'm not saying that he's a lousy fighter, just that chuck is one of the best out there. and in the immortal words of never back dow: to be the best, you got to take out the best.
Moosh50 2 years ago
MMA is a glorified kickboxing without gloves.
MMA and UFC fighters are just big guys throwing crappy punches and low, slow and weak kicks, and then getting down on the floor and throwing some even crappier punches down there after wrestling a little bit.
And i said that he wouldn't need to use them because the fight wouldn't get that far ^^.
To clarify: No MMA or UFC fighter knows martial arts.
Another thing: i just saw a couple of fights of chuck liddell... crappy guard, punches, and balance.
Chesbor 2 years ago
and still he has 21 wins(14KO). pretty good for someone that crappy eh? and chuck DOES know martial arts, he started karate when he was 12. and i think that Ehsan would find himself in the mat pretty soon, since 70% of MMA fighters like to take the fight to the ground. it could be an interesting match tho.
To clarify: i know, chuck does have a rather strange fighting stance, but the rrecord speaks for itself ^^
Moosh50 2 years ago
Record against other MMA or UFC fighters who are even worse than he is ^^.
With your way of thinking, any pumped up thug who beated the crap out of some other 21 guys with absolutely no technique is a champion.
Chesbor 2 years ago
and you're calling me ignorant...
so what you are saying is that flashy kung fu jump kicks are more effective then a mix of let's say brasilian ju-jutsu, kickboxin and karate, where all the technicues have been stripped down to the basic, most effective form?
Moosh50 2 years ago
the techniques are not existent, not basic, not simple, non...
brasilian ju-jitsu is a pretty good martial art, so is karate, though neither one of them is as complete as kung fu, they are really good and effective, kick boxing is even worse than box when it comes to technique.
That being said, MMA and UFC fighters don't know either karate nor ju-jitsu, or, they "know" the techniques but they don't know them well enough to use them.
And kung fu isn't about "flashy kicks"
Chesbor 2 years ago
Though flashy kicks are pretty good to cover distance and get some unusual angles, they are a really small part of kung fu... kung fu has a los of foot work, punches, grappling (chin na). In some styles there barely are any kicks...
So, a question, do you even practice any martial art?
Chesbor 2 years ago
i used to do taekwondo and hapkido, nowadays i'm in to boxing.
and if MMA fighters don't know any martial arts, then why are so many of them using brasilian JJ? and yes, the technicues are made simple, because complex technicues are nearly impossible to do in a real fight. sure, you can do all the wristlocks in the world when practising in the gym, but try them agnaist a real opponen who's only goal is to kick your teeths in.
Moosh50 2 years ago
and flashy kicks are good for nothing. you can cover the distance with normal kicks too, without risking getting attacked while mid-air and falling flat on your ass.
my point is, that if you really can't see UFC fighters for what they are, that is some of the best fighters in the world, then you are either a novice in martial arts or just ignorant ''kung fu rulz'' fanboy
Moosh50 2 years ago
sorry, my mistake, i meant to write ''UFC champions''.
Moosh50 2 years ago
"UFC champions" are just big guys with no skills, if you can't see martial arts for what they are, then you're either a novice or just an ignorant "UFC rulz" fanboy.
Those you call "flashy kicks" are.... i don't know the name in english... (when you make your opponent think that you're gonna do something and then you do some other thing) and then kicks from different angles, so you can land them. And UFC fighters can't pull them off, in fact, those you call "basic" techniques are all wrong.
Chesbor 2 years ago
I didn't have enough space... bruce lee basicaly said "practice any martial art, but use your hips", and that's something that every martial art does if the movements are done well. But UFC fighters can't even do "basic" or "simple" techniques right.
So, stop talking crap and defending something with no knowledge to back it up.
Chesbor 2 years ago
if the UFC guys suck so much, why aren't there a bunch of kung fu master in their place, making the ridicilously large amount of money that the UFC guys get? randy couture for example has his own brand of clothing, and liddel makes a crazy paycheck from every fight. if they are so much better then UFC fighters, surely they would have no problem conquering UFC right?
Moosh50 2 years ago
Some fighters could yes, but martial arts tournaments pay well too....
Besides, some of the guys in UFC are more than 2mts tall and weight like 100kg.... that's kindda hard to KO even with a very good technique.
So... If they pay big guys to beat the hell out of each other... good for them... exept for the part of the beating up :P.

2º Kung fu has a lot of styles, not just drunken boxing and what is now known as "traditional wushu" wich are both styles that "sacrifice" power in order to get better angles.
And to Aheyne: If kung fu is that much worse than UFC? why do you even practice it? Go practice MMA.

Kung fu ISN'T worse. It's how modern practitioners train. Most don't condition themselves, strengthen their muscles, or practice FULL contact FULL Speed FULL Strength fighting.
That's how you learn kungfu once you know the basics.
Aheyne 2 years ago 2
whoa, finally some voice of reason.
i should have mentioned this before, but i don't think that kung fu sucks or anything, i just think that there is no such thing as ''most superior martial art''. that's why the MMA guys are so good, thay don't have just one style, but several.
Moosh50 2 years ago
My point is that MMA fighters don't know any martial art... they can't kick properly, nor keep a side stance and when they hit they just throw a couple of pretty good jabs, and then start to throw their hands everyehere.
Chesbor 2 years ago
in the fighting science video about MMA fighters, you can clearly see how they turn their whole body to the punch, in a real fight they have to do it so fast in order to punch several times that you just can't see it, and franky, with your experience in martial arts, i'm not suprised
Moosh50 2 years ago
Ok, like i said before, stay in your ignorance, if you can't see that they can't fight properly, well too bad, go see MMA, listen to hip hop, watch hollywood movies, and keep the attitude, i don't really care. But if you do care, get some info.
Chesbor 2 years ago
i HAVE the info, one of my schoolmates was in to MMA, i know they can fight and they know martial arts. i've never said that kung fu sucks, i just think that there is no such thing as a superior martila art, unlike you seem to think that kung fu rules everything. i'm sure that kung fu is effective, it has been around for over a thousand years, surely for a reason, but there is this one thing you haven't taken in to account: evolution(tbc)
Moosh50 2 years ago
martila arts are all effective, sure, but they all have weaknesses. since MMA fighters know many different martial artthey can minimize those weaknesses. you, my friend, are the ignorant one here.
Moosh50 2 years ago
That is just stupid and unfounded... you can't minimize weaknesses of martial arts, first off martial arts have different techniques, wich in each case has different adventages or disadventages, for instance, a lateral kick is really powerful, but you can't throw it if the other guy is right next to you, a "jab" is not that much strong, but it's waaay faster than a hook, and doesn't open that much your guard.
Chesbor 2 years ago
so kicks are powerful but can't be used in closed quarters, whereas a liver blow is powerful too but requires the opponent to be close to you = using technicues of one martial art to minimize the weaknesses of another martial art technicues. did you even read what i posted?
Moosh50 2 years ago
did you read what i've posted? UFC FIGHTERS CAN'T KICK, so nothing about using different techniques. And in any case, using a different technique is not minimizing another technique's "weakness" using a different technique is using a different technique. And martial arts, take kung fu for example, have both kicks and punches, both long distance and short distance.
