Pretty good but well dated - Bob Poynton's not had hair for years,,,,lol

[Sundome1]

Yes this footage dates back to 1985 and before.

[MrCubababy]

its a training video,you would find out (how unrealistic bullshit) it is if you kicked off in a night club where terry is on the door. yes even at his age, the man is still on the doors. Terry Oneil a true fighing legend.oss

[mooseven]

@rtyush Maybe it's a chudan barai? Nothing wrong with that. Chudan barai is more useful anyway.

[MiuMarian88]

this is unrealistic shit

[tommotomt]

@rtyush some people do it a fist width above the leg, some people do it parallel to the leg, but its never chudan!

@rtyush Hi Rytush

Sorry I have gone over and over and I just cant see anything wrong with it.

Terry Oneil is a big huge man in build and height so maybe its just his stature that gives you the impression the Gedan Barai is to high.

Even if it is from a high position I can imagine you could go from that position to do a gedan barai or to uchi Uke if nessercery.Im not as excactly going to question it with him seeing he towers over me like a monster lol.

@rtyush

At what part of the video clip are you talking about.

[rtyush]

why is his gedan barai at tudan when it should be at gedan. >.<

Everyone keeps trying to compare martial arts. It is not the art that wins in the ring or the streets, it is the fighter. Also, if the teacher is bogus, crap, has never been in a fight ( ring or street), you could actually be in the perfect art and still be some boo boo. If you teacher does not no how to translate the art, no matter what it is, it will not work. So stop with this art versus art, no one will win.

@ghettoaga I like many things about Shotokan but I know it has some limitations, so what? there's no complete style and I'd rather do Shotokan right than start mixing stuff without proper understanding. That been said, I also like boxing a lot and I've found that my karate training has benefited from it. If you like WT or MT more power to you, but do some research or better yet, go train with someone serious before criticizing other styles.
