kung fu tournament 2009--shuai jiao mens

[K3anuPlaysP1an0]

No no no... everybody is WRONG... This match is winner by submission or takedown, that is why there is no punching. Just grappling and takedowns

[RacoonBurglar]

i see they have good sweeps but noticed that they dont bend down as low as it should be when doing throws which involves the up and down action of the hips and knees

[jampop77]

that's wrestling

[asdfme]

Gotta love how they paid thousands of dollars to learn martial arts and it looks EXACTLY like people shoving each other around.

[IHS7]

So this is how tournaments really looks like? I need to stop watching so many movies.

[AVALONZ74]

@IHS7 Nah, these amateurs are american and they're scared as fuck, you should watch some real chinese competitions, they look like the one in Karate Kid lol. This right here ain't kung fu, it's bullshit, they were even trying judo techniques -_-

[paintballgenie11]

Ya it looks like Judo

[raydan18]

it looks quite like judo or aiki-jujitsu

[chrokeii]

is this really kung fu? is this a take down or grappling style or something? i wasn't aware that a non-striking style of kung fu was taught.

[iexcalibui2]

yes this is a Chinese martial art called Shuai Jiao. Its focus is on throwing, clinching, wrist locks and control, etc. Its stand up grappling. Similar to Judo Tachi-waza.

Chinese martial arts touch on just about most stand up aspects of fighting

[DaiBoxer]

This is the oldest Gongfu.

[Risin9Ph03nix]

yes this is kung fu. many say its also the oldest style of kung fu as well.. but in the Baodeng style of Shuai Chiao which is what i do.. there is a lot of striking but its mainly deadly throws, joint locking and breaks, tearing, and leg seizing which falls under throws
