  • This is the result of putting martial art into a ring.. at the end of the day its just a brawl with no art.

  • In my point of view, silat is an art or culture and it doesn't belong to any country. Yet anthropologically speaking, it definitely belongs to a nation which lives and forms Malay Archipelago for thousands of years. The same thing also goes for other culture/subject for example weapon s.a kriss, food, clothes and so on. It is absolutely incorrect for any country claiming as its originality & 'copyright'. People who never learn & study will only say so :)

  • all i saw was their stance, and anyone can do tht.. its just brawl. like you can see on the streets..... . :( and whts with MMA arguments going around here lol. its the individual not the art that matters.

  • kesian..

  • @Saito682 pencak silat is from Indonesia for sure, u dumb ass!! like batik, keris and many other cultures that malingsia try to claim/steal from indonesian.. the UN already decided it is an Indonesian culture and herritage. u r such a poor shit!!

  • @LCPD9111 I think that really just depends on the person using it. If a Silat or Wing Chun practicioner didn't practice at speed against a resisting opponent, I think the MMA fighter would beat the living snot out of him. It would look fancy until the guy plowed you into the ground and caved your head in. However, assuming that they HAVE trained realistic, yes it's extremely effective. I favor both aspects.. I love my style, but train realistically and I've succesfully defended myself.

  • @SilatPlayer81

    would silat and wing chun be effective against an mma fighter in a street fight?

  • @LCPD9111 I think both have some value.. it's pretty interesting to me that some of the trapping and drill concepts are so similar between styles. But from a realistic street perspective, I've never found a perfect system. All of it has to be applied to realistic scenarios and done in sparring. I've spent 21 years in martial arts, between Aikido and Pencak Silat.. I've stripped elements from both that I felt weren't going to help in a fight.

  • @SilatPlayer81

    silat is better

  • @SilatPlayer81 Well said my friend.

  • @Saito682, Well said.. Many modern styles are evolving based on older systems from different regions. Some systems are a combination of many styles after having extracted techniques from each to form a complete system based on the preferences of the martial artist who developed it. Silat's evolution is no different.. however and whenever it started, it has evolved and been modified/expanded on many times over.
