your right. a boxer wouldn't win if they both acknowleged the fight..however the fight would not then be self deffense.

Self deffense is different from a fight because in self deffense.. the deffender doesn't wish to fight. in a fight they both want to fight. If it was self deffense the practioner of aikido would not stand facing the opponent. instead walk away. If the boxer had then charged and th aikido person dropped to the ground so the boxer flipped over him that would be self-deffense

[solenSenshure]

and the boxer wouldnt do well against a wrestler.

[kempobrad]

who cares?

[dhjmckenzie]

I really liked his abilities. However, I always wonder with Aikido practitioners why they don't demonstrate their skills in a somewhat more realistic fight scenario? Someone that knows a little about fighting is not going to always charge in at you as in this video.

[MrPinoy91]

thats cause attacks aren't in a fight like senario.

Aikido is more for run away... grabbing..

people trying to tackle you.

Not for like Mortal kombat head on

[MrPinoy91]

well think about this. if the person didn't charge then the aikido practioner would not need to deffend himself. the aikido person would turn and walk away. thus leaving the man who wanted to fight him by himself. If the man however charged at him as he walked away and the aikido guy dropped and grabbed his arm spontaneusly to flip the attacker.. then it would be of course an ideal way to use aikido. aikido is not for fighting. its for the last alternative if you cannot walk away from a fight.

@dhjmckenzie because they will injure someone. it's not for showing. they just use it to inhibit peace not as a tool to gain power. that's why you don't see one use in MMA. MMA fights shows how greedy most people in fighting for power and fame. you should never use it for just that. I'm an aikidoka myself you know..
