(cont'd from previous comment)

After doing more paired forms and push hands work, however, I began being able to maintain textbook structure and use proper Xingyi techniques in both friendly exchange and sparring. This has been true even when sparring with people from other fighting styles.

Therefore, I contend that its entirely possible for one to fight the way one practises. However, having the right kind of sparring experience and the right kind of practice is essential. Just my two cents'.

Xingyiquan includes Shuaijiao (throwing).

@fight38club Why Chinese Martial Art isn't strong anymore?

because it was a skill of killing. and today u can't use these skills in a sport competition like this. do you know this competition prohibit hitting opponent's head and balls and such as eagle's style that kind of dangerous action?

we're civilized, doomed to be weaker and weaker.

@tonyli3s try it, and see what happens. Let us know.

@eastpaw Its about time someone else said this. I have never seen the point in practicing one way, and fighting another way. It seems a waste of time. I used Shaolin Longfist forms in real fight using real stances, and maintaining a low stance, and I was able to handle the other guys easily.

@eastpaw Agree, as i noticed the same in my training. I think why most people think gung fu is 'useless' is because majority of people are to lazy to work at it and get the results that faaar surpass those in most typical mma training or any typical training for that matter.

@sengoku16 I agree but to an extent.

[WarriorOfTheBlackSun]

@tonyli3s lol, you assume they would react nor pick up intentions. Your comment shows the level of your skill.

[WarriorOfTheBlackSun]

@fight38club As I agree, they also are sport.

i saw splenty of xing Yi. Xing Yi principles apply to more than just "litteral" techniques. but philosphy and strategy

[tonyli3s]

wow why the fuck do they have their hands in that position? if they got kicked by some1 who actually knows martial arts, they would break their hands.
