He has nice martial art technique, but his boxing and wrestling technique was kinda off. He struck with his back hand 1st then lead hand 2nd. A no no! Then his takedowns look weak too. But this is a demo so...
That explains the demonstrations in the video... I was looking for videos on shoot fighting and thought these might be a good buy, but after seeing this I can tell it's not the series I'm looking for.
Earnest Hart Jr was a great fighter in his own right, but his claim of being the shootfighting instructor is bogus. Hart fought the shootboxing exhibition bout in S.Louis MO with Ike Stafford, who around 1990, had been closely working with the founder of the sport, Caeser Takeshi. The truth is Hart never learned anything Shootfighting related. He claimed the stuff he taught was huge in Japan, etc ,but never traveled across the Pacific.
