Why does he look plastic!

[sbo7]

Actually I am always suspicious when I see a so called master being overdressed (having flashy colourful "traditional" clothes), that's funny because he is trying to be more Chinese than the Chinese! I mean the "real" masters don't pay attention to this materialistic stuff like clothing...you can see many Chinese masters demonstrating stuff with jeans or shorts as clothing has nothing to do with kung-fu! It's usually the fake guys that try to compensate their lack of knowledge with clothes, etc.

@sbo7

that´s typical american , dude..

@MrHoppers002 i would be very happy if u tell me what report that is u r talking bout and of what time we are talking here ( i mean what period of time)

[slamfish2010]

@MrHoppers002 ok i got you, but i think we're talking bout different things here;-) im referring to the topic of ip man NOT beeing lees sifu.and by the time that he actually WAS his sifu, so he was wongs sifu, too. later ok well, thats another story ;-)then wong seemed to become lees sifu .i wont negate that fact. i thought you and the others (whoever they are ;-) ) were saying wong was lees first sifu, and thats definitely not true.

[MrHoppers002]

ok well in that video wong shun leung himself said bruce lee would wait on the top of the stairs and trick the other students that wong is busy and he would get more instruction time with wong. Now why would wong tell a different story later? that makes no sense

[slamfish2010]

@MrHoppers002 ok thats interesting to heae of, but i think that the documentary was made before wong made his statement on his website. by the time wong taught lee it was from friend to friend, he was no sifu by that time, wasnt he? or am i misstaking persons here? but i like the fact that our discussion takes a non offensive path, lets keep it up ;-) cheers

[MrHoppers002]

according to a official documentary about bruce lee's life it clearly stated bruce was primarily taught by wong shun leung with some instruction by ip man and he did the step thing where he tricked the other students to go away so he can have more instruction time with wong.

[slamfish2010]

@MrHoppers002 sry for the misspelling btw, i think u know who i mean

[slamfish2010]

@MrHoppers002 thats not true, they were both his students, wong shon is telling that on his website, why should he lie? hes not even telling only positive stuff about bruce lee at all.im glad i could help to delete that gap in your knowledge ;-) have a ic day mate

[DMulah3]

@sbo7 I somewhat agree because the chinese are not flashy at all in their kung fu clothing, but your point is invalid. just because he dresses this way he knows no wing chun? base you opinion off knowledge not looks. hence dont judge a book by its cover.
