The best sparring match at Wong Tournament 2010

The fighter in black is Sifu Shawn Colvin, son of the famous Sifu "Kung Fu Joe" Colvin. Unfortunately, I don't know his very worthy opponent's name, but they put an inspiring performance. The wonderful and inspiring thing about Sifu Colvin is that he fights using exactly the same techniques that he practiced in his forms prior to the bout. I recorded this with an iPhone, so the video unfortunately isn't good enough quality to fully convey the speed and power of his kicks. He's one of those masters--Eshan Shafiq, the Afghan sifu, is another--who really demonstrate the fearsome beauty of this martial art.
