So bad -_-. I can't believe this guy wants to be the poster-boy for Wing Chun in MMA. Stance is terrible, no structure, hands are too low. Please please let him fight someone who is sober and knows how to fight.
I'm a wing chun practitioner and I love this. Shawn Obasi does not represent us. I may sound like a broken record, but wing chun is not for sport fight. Even one of the most basic movements (Bil Gee) is an eye strike.
Yo if that dude claims wing Chun he is deff. Not doin it right WHOA first u never engage u use their own body against them he was? Well the vid is enough
i wish i didnt fight at 125 so i could fight pussies at the big weight classes. there are no pussy fly bantam or feathers, but start getting to 205 and up they get weak. mad ups to the guy from the crowd, Obasi needs to get destroyed he cant even throw good looking combos.
@Aurelius27x ...But if you look at all of his videos its him saying "I USE WING CHUN. I'M A WING CHUN MAN." He claims to know wing chun, and like you said, he doesn't. He picks a bunch of fights with amateurs who don't know what their doing and wins purely on that. Hell I could beat the guys he does, and I'm a goddamn bantamweight.
i cant prove it, but i seriously doubt that is a "guy from the crowd". no fighting promotion would allow such a fight because there would be substantial legal action taken against that organization.
1:10 is THEE.......WORST!!! fukin representation of Wing Chun that I have EVER!!! witnessed in my ENTIRE!!! fukin LIFE!!!!
as a Wing Chun practitioner myself, I feel quite ashamed that Shawn Obasi has self-appointed himself as the ambassador of this very sacred martial art in the world MMA.
Perhaps, but Obasi also practices BJJ. Also, when a wrestler shoots, you better sprawl or expect to be on your back. Finally, as per the rules of this contest, no kicks, knees, or elbows were allowed.
Yeah I agree. He did a real job good acting like a punching bag, tapping out after getting bombs exploded on his head, then afterwards, throwing his hands in the air as if he won the fight.
@bluesdealer well like i said id attack at that moment. I might attack his neck. Id lunge toward him and use the wing chun punch. he seems to use these wild boxing punches when he keeps talking about how hes a wing chun man. I dont see much wing chun.
@TwoGunGunnar Thats not true. I have watched him and he does use wing chun but not like any typical wing chun practitioner i know. He does use it but he will go into western boxing after like one punch it seems like to me. Something like that. idk
Obasi kind of irritates me because of that. If he'd actually DO WC, it just might work (I've seen it work just fine in real, bona fide fistfights against non-WC people).
As it is, though, he's not doing WC any favors. For one, he doesn't use it in his fights. Second, he's not really all that good at it to begin with (maybe with more practice he could get good at it, but he's not there right now). Third, that little tantrum he threw isn't exactly dignified.
@randyds5 actually if you have proper structure and footwork you can stuff things like low shoots very easily. Unfortunately the way you do it (gan sao) would be considered a strike to the back of the neck/spine even though it's technically not.
@saharadipity Or he was a plant, to get the crowd riled up. I don't see a thoroughly amateur MMA event like "King of the Kage" in Burlington Vermont immune from using WWE type tactics for publicity's sake.
@kirecorp No. The mention of him being a wrestler is to be taken with a huge grain of salt. He's just some guy who wrestled in college. he's no professional at all. He's fat & out of shape & doesn't compete, yet he made Obasi look like shit until he gassed.
Eh, a fat nobody from the crowd w/ no skills was dominating the Wing Chun "master" until he gassed out. No matter how you slice it, Obasi & his traditional martial arts were thoroughly exposed here.
@iiwatcher: Although he did get a few takedowns, I wouldn't say the white guy ever really dominated, he never retained a dominant position and also didn't manage to do anything from the takedown. Each time he got rolled off or stuffed, and traditional or no, Obasi did clearly manage to both handle him and outdo him in terms of conditioning.
@WarriorBoy Eh, we're not talking about any kind of a caliber fighter. we're talking about some fat shlub from the crowd. He took Obasi down, & was ground and pounding him until he gassed, which is when Obasi took the upper hand & won. Notice how he didn't use an iota of Wing Chun to do it either. There just isn't any room for spin here--Obasi & his traditional martial arts were exposed here. He's a shit MMA fighter & his WC is obsolete.
@iiwatcher: I will say that the dude from the crowd did land too many takedowns on who is supposed to be a career fighter. If this guy from the crowd could get those off on him, what will an experienced wrestler/grappler be able to do? Considering the art he wants to use, Obasi should really be focusing on be able to defend against different methods.
As for his Wing Chun, I'm in total agreement, aside from that funky stance he does he isn't exactly Ip Man here, lol.
@saharadipity stupid ass...he didn't do SHIT. fucking damn children on this board. EVERY FIGHTER WILL GET TOUCHED, taken down, hit...there is no way to avoid that. just because someone takes me down doesn't mean a damn thing. dude tapped because his weak ass wrestling moves didn't do shit and he was starting to feel what it's like to have his head turned into popcorn.
@ASCEND2ETERNITY thanks for the reply. i don't have much trouble with what you call, an ego. what's funny about the spectator is his perspective. if the 'experienced' fighter lost to the 'inexperienced' fighter would the spectators support the guy who lost? HELL NO...you'd sling slander. if the experienced guy wins...you say he was supposed to. if the experienced guy refuses to fight...you criticize the experienced fighter. you don't murder the fool, but you win.
@saharadipity stupid fool anyone can perform a take down. ANYONE can get taken down. even elite fighters get taken down. a TAKEDOWN is a transitional move, it is not the end of the fight.
see, motherfuckers like you...who don't do shit...type bs like this. including 18 other got damn spectators.
@doctorsizzle... True true... A TAKEDOWN is a transitional move,... but so was when I moved your mother from the Missionary to "DOGGY" position ! ... and the 18 spectators was ALL HER Idea... Made her dripping WETTT ! ... P.S. Your mother has the same fetish as you do with swallowing ... She ended the night after taking 19 DIFFERENT "SHOTS" in her mouth.....................................
@MegaLIPLIP i think you're on the wrong site. lol. you must've been one of the 18 i referenced.
you're a closet homosexual that looks like a duck. you don't need to put yourself through this torment. just let the world know your a fake-ass anarchist that would rather rub his fuzzy clit than really engage in revolution.
go find a mirror and walk to it...you'll see a bitch coming right at you.
the only think i know is ..if a kick boxer or muay thai fight with this guy ..he will show us his wing chung but...for now he has to be careful of the bjj
@DonMega187 Where were those fancy Wing Chun moves than? People represent silly martial arts like those, but in reality there just throwing regular punches and regular kicks.
Yeah he might be trained in something but it is pretty obvious he has never fought in anything like this. He expended all of his energy right in the beginning trying to pick him up and slam him. I think he would have done a little better if he wouldn't have wasted all of his energy for a flashy knock out move. Of course if he was in better shape to begin with it would help too lol.
Keep you elbows in when using wing chun punches, sink the elbow shawn, shoulders back, dont lean in to much with your body weight, puts you off balance
I totally agree! I am fortunate to get to practice against many different styles. My style has no name but I find useful things in all m y kung fu brothers practices!
GOOD!!!!!!The white dude was probally a prick challenging u from the audience and soon found out u are THE TRUTH!!! I hope UFC is offering u a contract by now to represent true martial arts!!!
lol he wouldnt last a whole round in UFC, its easy to look good against nobodies
look what happened with kimbo, he was great in his street fight challenges, then when he stepped into the octagon, even though his opponents werent that great, he did horribly
How can you raise yo hand at the end of the fight and you tapped out to a punch....neither one of them is ufc material
