damn Judo Gene Lebells old training partner Vic Christy actually had a great match with Lou Thesz, and its on youtube !!!!!!!!! now if thats not Catch as Catch Can I dont know what is,,,,,,, Bruce Lee may have not emphasized the grappling but he trained it ,,,,
JKD was and is MMA,,JUDO GENE LEBELL learned under Ed Strangler Lewis,,He trained with Vic Christy who was in youtube a match against Lou Thesz. Gene taught Roddy Pipper, and Bruce Lee ,,so I guess Bruce was Catch as Catch Can,,also Bruce dabbled in college wrestling ,,so their you go.
The guys that live in America are so lucky to have such guys training them. I would kill to train under someone like Erik Paulson, or even one of his students. Alas I live in Australia and a move is out of the question for now. Awesome place, best wishes.
Oh i hear that bro, i'm in australia also, and i love it of course, but since we're so far away from the rest of the world, we just don't get exposed to the world's elite
jeez how come Australia didnt get into the game yall was closer to Japan when Pride was goin on,but i understand ,the Greco Roman for the Olympics,is one thing also i dont think Brazilians moves to Australia like America, but your stand up striking is equal those polynesians proved that
Very cool looking place and hope for much success. I got to meet Erik Paulson this last weekend at a tournament when I was reffing. Very cool guy and a great martial artist.
Thanks for posting this vid. I trained with Erik @ the Inosanto Academy and he's by far one of the best instructors in the world today. Best of luck with his new gym.
new gym superb.
