  • You have? Which systems have you fought against?

  • @Micahel213 boxing, ppl trained by military in the family, tang soo do, MMA, a bunch of different stuff actually

  • No, I don't believe it so. You might think it so. Perhaps you have little experience with other martial arts? Have you ever sparred with an advanced Krav Maga or JKD practitioner? I have sparred with a whole range of martial arts practitioners ranging from Thaiboxer, Japanese JiuJitsu, the Korean arts like Hapkido, TKD and Kuk Sool. But also Krav, JKD, Wing CHun and so on. So I know from experience that Hapkido, though it does have merits, isn't the most practical of self defense systems.

  • @Micahel213 well then your fighting the wrong hapkido fighters i've fought other fighters too trained in different arts and its proven effective

see all

    All black belts or similar level I reckon?

  • @Micahel213 you underestimate hapkido a lot

    its one of hte worlds best self defense martial arts and i dont think u seem to believe so

  • @dragonianxx

    Well something is better than nothing. But more and more are turning to the fma for that. Why else would the Navy Seals engage Paul Vunak to train instructors? There are Silat and FMA-instructors working around the globe to share their knowledge. My own instructor trained the Brazilian C O T and is still training the Filipino commandos. To be able to effectively defend against a knife you have to know how to handle one. You need to know it's possiblities and it's limitations.

  • @Micahel213 i've studied knife defense in hapkido which u seem to think fairly lowly of even though its taught to most of the worlds law enforcement

  • @dragonianxx

    Well I'm genuinely interested in observing your new vid and see how you have evolved.

    Especially when you live in a knife culture it would seem to me you should be open to other systems.

    Have you studied knife fighting?

  • @Micahel213 im actually working on a new video i just havent had time cuz i work all the time and when im not at work im lifting and helping teach at my taekwondo school

    and trust me... i know knife wounds dont come off easy i've had knives pulled on me i live directly between 2 heroin trade neighborhoods and dont liek taking peoples shit especially off the internet
