The MMA Fighter On A Mission To Expose “Fake Martial Artists” in China (HBO)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 сер 2017
- The fight ended before it even began. Police in China swept in and detained controversial Chinese mixed martial arts fighter Xu Xiaodong minutes before his scheduled comeback fight against a Tai Chi master.
The planned fight came just weeks after video of Xu brutally flattening a Tai Chi master went viral - a fight that lasted just about 10 seconds, prompting massive backlash that forced Xu into hiding. Xu, an outspoken self-promoter, has claimed he is on a mission to expose fake masters of traditional martial arts.
VICE News met with Xu at his gym in Beijing earlier this month when he was still preparing for the scheduled battle that ended up not happening.

When you see guys like him telling a government censor to GTFO... It's things like that which let me know that China will be a pretty OK place in a while. Everyone lumps all of the Chinese people together with their government when in fact there are many there who are working to make China a true democracy. The kids are alright... :) Hopefully, it will be a perfect example of what a "bloodless revolution" looks like. Unlike many Middle-Eastern countries (or so it seems), there is a clear(er) path to success in that regard. And _that_ is a whole other discussion... :/
VICE News Im confused why you recommend a linked video to watch next: When this is totally unrelated, plus outdated to the current video being posted on?
Vice was my absolute favorite channel of all time across all media platforms. However, around the time that they sold out, the content quickly went downhill. I miss the old vice. They have not and almost certainly will never be what they used to be. The channel is a shadow of its former self at best.
Its Jerald from Hey Arnold!
The de-valuing of artists is the norm form now on. While all our inspirational song writers are dying, they are being replaced with band-wagon clowns, without love or concern for human kind as a whole.
This is leverage being used against us to prime us for population control. look around, it's everywhere.
i live in in Hunan, I understand,
If your martial art is useless in the martial department then it's just art. Nothing wrong with art but don't pretend it's going to save a person in a street fight.
That's irresponsible.
Bruce Lee and Xu XiaoDong are no differences from each other. Hated by the Chinese people.
@@superchili9057 chinese love bruce lee
@@superchili9057 I believe Xu go around and exposing fake martial art was hurting some people businesses. that's why he was targeted.

I was disappointed of myself from the past learning traditional martial arts and never succeeded against any opponent's. Some tranditional martial art instructor are 100% lairs and fraud when it comes to thai chi power, Dim Mark death, paralyzing attack, etc.
So, I did told many folks that these kind of stuff is fake. I can tell you one thing though...in America said that Wing Chun doesn't work in real fight? I've used it on boxing ring and it work!!
@@themartialartgod5425
Me too. No racist people would love Bruce Lee.
I’m genuinely surprised he hasn’t “disappeared” yet
felix john lol u don’t even kno what happens them...the real truth
@sinnerandprejudice
I wonder if there's a way foreigner fans can support him.
i think he could actually drop the government troops if they came for him, that is, if they haven't already.
with his organs removed.
@@TSMSnation That's uhhh the thing about Chinese troops. They don't practice tai chi. They actually are taught kick boxing and sanda which is basically kick boxing but Chinese.
They ostracized Xu because he exposed fake martial arts, which is Tai Chi. tai chi makes up a good chunk of their gdp. Tourism in China is mostly for tai chi and they also make a lot of money from Chinese students themselves when they pay to learn this tai chi art form as a combative form.
Like I tell everyone else "Oh you wanna learn how to fight? Go to this boxing gym I go to."
His social credit score dropped by the hundreds after this.
Not even a joke. Guy can't board planes nor high speed trains anymore. To one fight he had to drive for over 30 hours.
He gets fined over and over and he's not allowed in his own dojo anymore
Jokes aside, the government actually did that. And they harassed not only him, but also his family. Pretty sad stuff tbh.
@@Kurostyle21 Can't he just move out of the country? Go join the UFC or something?
@@alexandercrush He legaly can't since his social credit is low which entails that he cannot use airplanes going out of the country. Also his family will be left in China if by chance he did get out of China.
@@Bass_no_Treble He can just drive then. I doubt he's unable to leave.
He ate the producers lunch🤣🤣
it's what makes him a chad

Everybody is hating on this mma fighter but the fact is the tai chi guy agreed to the fight so he obviously believed and was claiming that his tai chi was effective in real combat. he needed to be exposed.
Correct. the tai chi guy didn't say "no mister MMA guy, tai chi is just a dance! I can not fight! Please do not hurt me!" which is what he should have said.
Well said
tai chi in itself isn't something that is useless in combat. The issue is that in China, martial arts have non violent restrictions which turned ancient combat styled martial arts into simply exercise. Much of the traditional fighting aptitudes taught by the old form of Chinese martial arts has been lost in time.
@mattsa pic Tai Chi isn't a fighting technique, it does train balance for actual fighting techniques.
Go back and count how many fights collegiate wrestlers, boxers & Muay Thai fighters lost during the early days of the UFC. Hell Paul varelans had zero fighting experience and crushed BJJ legend Joe Moreira & D1 wrestler mark hall. So why isn't wrestling & BJJ being ridiculed? Funny how people take sides ain't it?
I mean, he's a journalist. The hair is a mic. Makes sense.
Lol
F.... I can't stop laughing... XD
🤣🤣🤣
Lookup Kid n Play
😂😂😂
He demonstrated tremendous self-control by not bursting into laughter. A true martial artist indeed.
A true restraint artist. Wait no that sounds like BDSM.
Yes you can tell he has complete control over himself and his impulses
Nobody used Tai Chi in the battlefield. They threw punches and swung sticks. Tai Chi is the ritual reenactment of battle, separated by millennia from real combat. It has its place, and that place is not in global combat.

@@hernandocortez6351 lol
Is that your evidence?
@@rajkumarimeena1510 Richard Clear has repeatedly told folks to come visit and find out for themselves if Tai Chi can be an effective fighting art. That's all I need to know.
@@hernandocortez6351 basic of kungfu guildlines, you can push everyone who relax muscles and stand with 2 feet on a line. The big guy don't even need to move to deflect the blow of tai chi guy, all he need is change the stance a little bit.

Damn. For all that they tried to cover up his censorship, they basically confirmed it with that little spat between him and his manager; his resulting "my life and my work is normal, no problem at all," totally wasn't suspect 😒😒😒
He's still an absolute legend.
Yea, it's wild they don't seem to realize the argument between them says it all.
Maybe this was their way of saying that there is censorship without actually saying that. I mean, they are not stupid, they know that anyone watching the exchange with the manager would understand what's going on.
Nice to see Gerald from "Hey Arnold" getting some work.
I forgot about that one. Fucking obvious now. I've been saying Paul Phoenix, others been saying Marge Simpson.
Things you guys didn't know is that in WuShu even though the "Tai Chi" master lost, he already punctuated his "Chi" into that MMA fighter's body and the MMA guy will die within 100 years.
hahaha
I think he can't even live that long

I believe its actually a progression tho.

What's Marge Simpson doing interviewing people

Yeah why?
She divorced Homer. She is a free woman now and doesn't have obligations anymore.

😂😂😂🤦🏽
Everyone on here comparing this interviewer to Marge Simpson shows how many of y’all never watched Hey Arnold!
This is what Bruce Lee was preaching over 50 years ago.
yup reminded me of him and that.
Night Rider amen my nigga!
In what whay are u meaning.
that in an actual fight you need to win no matter how, that's how he invented Jeet Kune Do, where you can combine as many styles and methods of fighting as like in whatever way suits you best, as long as it will allow you to win!
Night Rider not exactly
You know someone's tough when they can take someone's lunch and get away with it.
Western style fighter? No, MMA is a combination of all fighting arts which is Eastern. Bruce Lee is even considered the father of MMA. 😂
Rey Rey am yet Bruce lee is American
Nah niggas been mixing that shit since the 40's loc way before that nigga bruce.
Yes but mma is thought as an art itself now since the ufc etc. And it definitely began in the US.
Bruce Lee is american
Chinese!
He's pretty cocky, but respect to him for exposing these fake martial artists. He kinda reminds me of that Northerner bully from Ip Man tho.
the thing is he's to fight "the fake", he doesn't challenge any professional fighters. So against those fake masters I don't think u need a good attitude, they're basically scumbags who scam people for money
Andy Zhang pretty sure he was a Westerner but if your talking about Britain he was a sotherner I think not a northerner
this dude claimed to exposed fake chinese fighter huh, wait untill real mma fighter exposed his bully ass.
Uniq7 how is he a bully?
how is he a bully? by beat up old men and have no balls to fight a real fighter, the guy know damn well he gonna get fk by real fighter.
Why is no one mentioning the fact that he stole the producer's lunch and ate it? lol
rlatkdfyd481 thats something they teach you not to do when you're a kid , "dont touch that other kids food sweety its his and not yours" and yet hes a full grown man , thats not savage its weak
Right? Haha! But he can have it. I wouldn't want his hands on me.
That's china, its what they do. No insult meant. That's the culture.
Isaac Vickery its culture in china to take the other persons food and eat it without asking ? O.o
Manners and courtesy aren't the same in China as they are in the west. My guess is that Xu was hungry and simply saw some food for the taking. I doubt it was done out of spite or anything.
martial arts essentially moves that look cool
-saitama
I remember when he said that lol
What kinda haircut u want my man
you ever watch hey arnold?
I gotchu
dudes fro is 3 feet high n rising
birds live in there
cbjgdicad1 I'm proud to say I was there when his hair was only 3 feet tall.
like de la soul 😂😂
cbjgdicad1 to the breakadawn
1:22 Mother fucker owes me a light bulb.
Please tell me the dudes haircut caught you off guard 😐
I laughed so hard I fell out of my chair. :D
yup
Caught me off guard? It gave me epilepsy, aids, and cancer all at once.
Searched specifically for this video to see this guy, saw the interviewer for 1 second and had to pause because I was laughing so much. Never finished the video.
Haha, I literally also laughed for like 2 mins... but more power to him if that's his thing.
I like how he doesn’t let people bully him and try to control him. I respect that.
He's right. If you can't fight, don't bullshit the audience by advertising it as a combat martial art.. however I'm entirely confused, because why would a Tai Chi master, who should obviously know that tai chi isn't intended for combat, openly challenge an MMA? That's like beating up a toddler...
Tai Chi _IS_ intended for combat. I practise Tai Chi and I've sparred with guys who've done Muay Thai, Karate, Juujutsu, Judo, Aikido, Wrestling, Wing Chun etc. -- Tai Chi works. :)
The problem is that a lot of Tai Chi schools don't _TEACH_ Tai Chi properly. Any martial art can be bad when not properly taught or learnt. I've seen really good Karate fighters and other Karate fighters who couldn't fight their way out of a wet paper bag. Same goes with Tai Chi and practically every other martial art.
Don't blame a good tool in the hands of a poor workman.
Kinda hard to tell whether it's due to a poor tool or poor workman when in combination they don't work. This old guy clearly doesn't know shit.
He literally stumbled to the ground. He's so used to staged demos that he couldn't fight for real.
hows that tai chi work against a double leg, followed by hammerfist?
Tai Chi was more about balancing the body, it was the practice to improve fighting skill but not for the fight itself, you could train to use Tai Chi as a fighting style tho, it took time and practice.
Charlie Zelenoff needs to kick this guy's ass.
xXChakra2o9Xx U need a job promoting, I could see you make legendary fights like that
Theres a backstory to the fight look it up
#1 P4P GOAT 5,000 wins 0 losses
Uh xu xiaodong would brutally best zelenoff and zelenoff is a sissy not a pro boxer there's differences between mma and wannabe pro boxer clown, zelenoff will get killed by mma so don't bring his name up people knows he's not a boxer he's a sissy joke
Zelinoff the GOAT!!
Bruce Lee made this his ENTIRE PHILOSOPHY and based Jeet Kun Do on this concept. Xu Xiaodong took this exact approach to his fighting and became a controversial fighter for exposing traditional techniques that don't work when faced with more practical ones.
Major Kusanagi said it best: "Overspecialize and you breed in weakness"

“More violent western import”, lol god forbid there should be violence in a fight!!

You guys need to put a warning before that hair pops up. I was not prepared haha.
lmao dude straight up looks like Gerald from from 'Hey Arnold!'
As soon as I read this I was like what the hell are you talking about? Then the hair... holy hell!
The argument with the manager was such an act 😂😂🤣🤣
Once I saw the interviewer I just died.
I'm Chinese and trust me I hate censorship too.
X. J. Senior When the guy asked him about the censorship and how he responded with "My life and work is normal", he sounded like he was forced to say that. I'm Cuban and I freaking hate communism for this and many other reasons.
Erick The Red Actually I hate this guy more than the censorship. Xu’s master was originally one of the founders of modern Chinese combat “Sanshou” and of course a respectful Kung Fu master. And Xu was just trolling and playing like he knew nothing about Chinese traditional martial arts. It is a fact that most Chinese martial arts are used to improve people’s mind and health more than combat, but that does not mean they are liars. Like Aikido of Japan. Xu’s just advertising for its company and pretending to be a victim. Actually you can see it was him who was beating and humiliating people. When he used the word “exposing fake martial arts” then people just went crazily to support him. No one cared about his past and no one cared about his personalities. Chinese internet is far more free and horrible than you think.
Sometimes we do. But don’t forget china is the best and safest place to live. You should know the reason of it.
kung fu is for combat!!!
The USA is number one in censorship.
the chinese wushu association thinks the fight against the taichi guy was illegal actions that violated morals of martial arts? The so called "taichi master" agreed to the fight himself and it's his responsibility to accept whatever happens afterwards lmao.
It's China. You don't have individual rights.
If the taichi guy had won it would have been legal. But he lost so it's illegal.
Vincent Gaspar Typical kool-aid drinker is typiaal.

he stole the producers lunch and ATE it. ATE it.

Jorge Dominguez I know that reference
Kautsar MW and i love you for that you weeb c:
meeeh i rather have an apple
Hahaha right? Why the hell else would he steal it is what I want to ask the reporter.
they didnt mention his fraudulent ti chi magic beliefs. that guy he beat up, he is a delusional con man who thought he had magical powers and could knock people out without touching them with ki blasts. so yeah, it looks brutal seeing him beat that guy up, but that guy was SERIOUSLY asking for it.
Xavier Allred tai chi in general is useless against boxing or MMA. The same result would have come out even if it was a real tai chi master.
UFC Shenanigans heres an issue no one brings up: isn't the entire point of tai chi and such things suppose to be used for staying healthy instead of fighting? Cuz obviously thats the giant difference these 2 and others don't seem to be understanding
No not really. Tai Chi was originally taught as a actual martial art... for old people who could no longer do more physically demanding arts. So ya. Not a great argument for this big guy I guess.
Kaiba Man Tai Chi was at one point a (supposedly) useful art on the battle field. But nowadays it’s used to keep people in shape and get moving. I think it’s the fact that wars aren’t fought face to face like they use to be.
UFC Shenanigans im pretty sure u just nailed it
I just found out about this guy tonight and he has 100% of my respect.True hero. Says what he means and means what he says regardless of what his government wants him to think and say.

The reporter is an attention seeking idiot. There is no way he can explain that hair cut other than for it being a 'look at me, look at me' hair style. He looks like an idiot.
Many people just want attention, it's just about which way they took.
Some peoples buying expensive cool cloth, the other buying expensive weird cloth.
Some people just keep posting their boobs, the other posting their foods.

he might be douchey but he's real.
real douchey
everything in existence is "real"
I want to see rampage or a "real man" go against him in the ring
I disagree with "douche-y", but only because he comes across as frustrated with China's fake martial artists. From my understanding China deals with internal issues such as knock-off products and martial arts. I respect him for putting his life and reputation on the line against tradition and the Chinese goverment.
Well yeah, he's not a robot is he.
4:49 explained everything hahaha
The journalist is the kid from the Chris Rock sketch “dads got a flat top” all grown up

Bruce Lee said it “The best style is no style.”

+Elijah Scharp Yeah but should'nt nothing be something then? Cause we know nothing exist. (Look at dark holes)
Take in whatever is useful and leave out whatever you don't need, that's what it means to have "no style" technically like MMA.

Traditional Tai Chi isn't really a thing anymore. It has been configured throughout generations to suit society's demands. The exercises in Tai Chi is what is left behind not the actual martial art.
Edward Xu real taichi only exists in wudang mountain.
wudang mountain is a tourist location and the temple is a business, so no, they don't teach "real taichi".
akba666 Taoist temple is not the same as Buddhist temple.ignorant ppl like u won't listen, no point talking with u coz u r the kind that runs away from fight but good at smashing ur keyboard
LMFAO, sure thing, LOL. You can believe whatever delusional bullshit you like.
There is real application in Taichi. I studied Filipino Pekiti Tirsia Kali (knife and full contact stickfighting, trained boxing at Joe Fraziers back in the 90s) I had a teacher who understood and could execute applications. Taichi teaches sensitivity which is key to higher level contact. Watch champion boxer Vasyl Lomachenko "stick" to opponents and swing them into hooks when they try to clinch. Very high level taichi type techniques executed in the ring. Ignorant people fail to see or recognize what he does and what he does has already made 4 opponents, including another 2 time Olympic gold medalist like himself, quit on the stool
100% of the people who think the Chinese MMA fighter is an asswipe have not seen any McDojos.
The people who think he's an asswipe are the types that think Bruce Lee could knock out the strongest MMA fighter in "mere seconds". Aka the McDojo suckers who live in a fantasy world.
@@emjaiz Bruce Lee is not equivalent to the fake masters.
Illuminati Don’t be a moron, Bruce Lee isn’t comparable to the mcdojo asswipes you see in the US
@@emjaiz Bruce lee died in his prime and only one very poor black and white video exist's of him in a tournament. Bruce lee would not win in a MMA fight as it is not a one discipline fight. Put him up against another one discipline fighter pound for pound and he would have been amazing, he developed his own no-bullshit martial art Jeet Kune Do, Kung Fu are you really calling it bullshit ? what martial art to you practice , me Judo black belt 2nd Dan.
Illuminati While Bruce Lee likely would not have kept up with many upper division fighters, he was still an excellent and proficient fighter who would likely have performed well in mixed martial arts. This is extremely impressive considering the time he was alive, as individuals rarely mixed martial arts and fighting styles back then. He was the real deal, prioritizing strength and effectiveness as many would grow to see and would definitely hold his own in any feather or lightweight division fight.
04:30 I love how the journalist shat his pants and stood there still, scared for his life.
I hold my laugh when i see that funny hair LMAO
Would love to see him take a pro mma fighters lunch. The Cocky attitude would be put in check.
Exposing fake martial arts that takes people's money is a good thing. But being a bully and taking someone else's personal things (lunch) and teaching people that men only need three things in life, women cars and to get in a ring is a sign of immaturity. Who ever he had as a mentor if any has failed him.
Hope he grows up. Right intentions. Wrong attitude.
Thanos of Titan 100 percent agree I wish I could see him fighting someone from UFC
There is a video of him getting pummeled by a Muay Thai Fighter.
Well its hard to say whether it is his real character or just a media personality that he uses to make money.
you sound like such a beta dude lmao
He's beating up all the fake Chinese martial arts and that's good for me he's just true to himself and demolished what is so called fake masters
He's a man that gets what he wants. "Stole our producer's lunch out of the fridge and ate it." I don't know why, but that made me laugh.
Yeah thats just disrespectful.
thats just childish and silly
In China, respect works a little bit differently than it does elsewhere. You start with none and earn your way up.
Why the hell would you bring your lunch there anyway ?
he tried that shit outside china, he'd be eating out a straw
Everybody's talking about the reporter's hair, but not a lot of people are talking about the darkest part of the interview at 3:59

Just gonna settle it once and for all: Tai Chi isn't used as a combat martial arts today, but it was historically important as a viable combat style. It's just that many of us have never seen anyone who uses Tai Chi regularly in combat today. It's also very possible that what made Tai Chi effective for fighting is either not taught or is lost in history.
Yang style isn't meant for fighting. The Wu style is. They have very intensive push hands. I've trained w/ guys that did Wing Chun and Wu style Tai Chi. And they did challenge matches as well against other Kung Fu schools. If the master he defeated was a Wu stylist, then my best guest is that he assumed the MMA guy was going to fight like a typical Kung Fu challenge fighter. But soon realized he was in a world of shit. I hope he's ok though. Head trauma at that age is no joke.
Yang style isn't meant for fighting? Read about the guy who made Yang style he was called "invincible yang" Yang Lu Chan. Its always the person not the art, if you don't practice and study to cultivate it properly you can easily practice for 10 or more years and still see no fruitful effort.
Ha Ppy You nailed it.
okay I know I'm the guy who hates speed blitzers but if tai chi was faster it would probably be quite effective (for contest every time I've people training in tai chi their strikes are ten seconds long) if you practice slow your muscle memory won't be able to keep up when you try to move faster, also some things could be lost to history too, Martial Arts are constantly evolving, that evolution isn't always good.
Harry the Human Substitute Arrancar tau chi is practiced fast..That is the second stage..The slow part is the first.
If Chinese martial arts was so good then they could have easily tooken down this MMA fighter. I love relieving the truth, glad he expose the truth.
Thx Anh... showing may em HONOR!!!!
Oh shit this is the dude that beat the shit outta that Tai Chi guy lol
Interviewer rocking that Marge Simpson look.
havn't seen any new vids of him in 2020. Did he got arrested?
RIP producer's lunch
GET THIS MAN ON THE JRE PODCAST ASAP!
dolo I'm so glad I scrolled down, i was about to type this lol
dolo Yeaah
dolo we need to debunk this chi bullshit.
HELLO FREAK BITCHES!
Nospoon53189 it's 2017 you moron. There's live translation.
Maybe they should have an interviewer who knows at least the basics of mma lol.
"go do your stuff and be quiet" hahahahaha 🤣🤣
Well, his attitude on stealing the producers lunch is the behaviour of a bully.
For taking on the fake martial arts, its a good thing.
He should fight Seagal
we should all fight Seagal for his BS. I always hated Asian BS with there magic swords, martial arts and "medicine".
Peter Henriksen yeah same here LOL😂😂😂
Segal is 6'4". Nevermind aptitude, I think this guy would lose just because of there being such a stark difference in size.
Peter Henriksen The medicine part is actually no joke, well most of them asian medicine actually works
Old ass Jeans segal would be a giant next to him. That would be fun to watch.
Fighting Tai Chi masters is so stupid. That's like a Yoga instructor competing in a power lifting competition.
No, it's not.
It's like a Yoga instructor claiming he's better at power lifting than an actual power lifter, and then challenging actual power lifters to a fight. *The Tai Chi guy challenged **_him_** in the first place*
Seriously did anyone actually expect Tai Chi to win in a fight against forms that were developed specifically for combat? It'd be nice to see the mma fighter fight taekwondo or thai boxing masters.
Tai Chi literally means ultimate boxing. Of course it is not an effective martial art but many still believe it is.
They think they can fight tho, they live in a fantasy world where their martial arts systems (that are rarely tested) are superior to MMA, thats why he took the fight, to prove them wrong. It doesnt matter if hes a jerk or cares too much about banging or having expensive cars, his message remains the same. Non combat systems like Tai Chi should not claim to be a combat art, like a lot of douches do. Cuz when push comes to shove theyre gonna get stomped
KidCorgi.Com Nope, no room for people who teach fake martial arts like tai chi and aikido in the world
LMAO! Dude's hair popped up in the shot of the interview, and all I could think of was Gunny Ermy playing Sgt Hartman in "Full Metal Jacket" when he said "Holy Jesus...WHAT is THAT?...what THE FK IS THAT?!?!"
First of all. Tai chi and almost all the current Chinese martial arts can only trace back to 1600s at most, and almost all of them came from non-military background. What I am trying to say is that almost all of the Chinese martial arts survived Qing dynasty are not Battlefield tested or remotely battle ready. China lost most of its warrior elites in the Opium Wars to western guns and cannons either through loss of lives or willful complete abandonment of the practice after the practitioners who tend to be military completely migrated to modern industrial ranged warfare like how Qing reformed its banner armies who used to be Medieval style equestrian force to Beiyang army use exclusively guns, cannons, and battleships. Unfortunately, unlike Japan, the practical military martial arts of old Han/Manchu/Mongol were completely lost during the transition just like all the combat ready martial arts of Medieval Europe. Do you really think the old martial arts of Han, Manchu and Mongols used would be this ineffective and emphasize so little on pole-arm and mounted combat? (hint: all of them favor nomadic equestrian style of mounted warfare).
Indeed, a big chunk of the modern Kungfu originated from late Qing dynasty and are connected to the Boxer Rebellion. These martial arts were invented by peasants with little experience of fighting real soldiers and warriors in mortal combat scenarios and are primarily designed for self-defense against untrained fighters or for sport entertainment purposes like pro-wrestling. Again. Most of these Kungfu martial arts were never meant to be used in warfare or kill or be killed military situations. The ineffectiveness of the Boxer Rebellion also inadvertently proves the point. In fact, the stand out martial arts from Kungfu sphere tend to be of more ancient practices such as Shaolin fighting styles which does not connected to late Qing era, but even them were not meant to be used for battlefield situations but rather for defense against highway men and bandits. The lack of teaching on pole-arm fightings or mounted combat in these martial arts while China and the entire North Asia were dominated by cavalry and pole-arm centric warfare before modern times clearly revealed the true origin of these Kungfu martial arts--they are not meant for battlefield or kill or be killed situations or was designed by and for soldiers and warriors. Simply put, they were never meant to be lethal or combat ready, they are always geared towards sport entertainment (traveling circus performance) and self-defense against urban thugs and highway men; and as it's pedigree dictates, the Kungfu as we know today truly belongs in cinema and not in the world of full contact fighting sport.
Incidentally, Muay Thai was designed for life and death situations and battlefield. Indeed, the style is designed as substitute fighting style when proper battlefield weapons and gears are unavailable for whatever reasons--Muay Thai aims to use human body and limbs to imitate the effectiveness and quality of shield, armor, sword, axe, and clubs in combat as much as possible, and you see the difference in its effectiveness when compared to other self-defense martial art styles.
Ravenpy How does it feel to know you wrote this entire dissertation on here and only 4 people read it? I don't know if you're right or wrong cause I didn't read it cause it was way too long. The comment section is for just that, comments; not full dissertations. You could've gotten this same point across in a single paragraph at most.
Very profound! I agree that a lot of practical martial arts were lost during modernization. And those Kung-fu originated mostly during late Qing period in southern China. Many practical forms such as blade/spear techniques were lost due to both dominance of firearms and Qing government’s restriction on traditional forms.
you should try making a book sir..
Ultra Instinct Vegeta - how does it feel to become a self appointed critic that couldn’t even be bothered to read that which you are criticising. Even if one person learns something, it was worth it.
Okay okay okay... I was very interested in the video, seems like a very serious theme, a culture with so much history being challenged and questioned... But then that guy at 1:21 suddenly appers from nowhere and catches me off my guard. I started fucking crying ROFL
same.....
1:22
Sr. Solowinski Bravo marge simpson
i had respect for the guy until he stole the lunch, hes just a thug
The producer should have said to him "You know I spat in that?".
He wants to prove to everyone that his balls are so big that he doesn't give a crap. It is very disrespectful to steal, but if a thug can become viral guess anyone can lol.
He's definitely an asshole, but sometimes it takes being an asshole get things done that needed to be done. Being a martial artist and an instructor myself, I don't like the arrogant way he carries himself and the enforcement of that stereotype, BUT I dislike the con-artists he exposes even more. I like what he's doing, but not the way he does it.
But yeah, eating someone else's food is just douche-baggery.
stark1987 no
good thing you had an argument, you sure crushed me with logic and reason...
O man, his hair had me laughing out loud. WTF ahahahahahahaha.
Lol did anyone else hear the narrator say "he's not afraid to get what he wants, he even took the producer's lunch out of the fridge and ate it" 😂😂😂
Holyshit! He stole the producers lunch and ate it! That’s so evil.
Serslystrong I bet he was asking around who's it was first
Ironically in traditional Eastern martial art dojos it is customary to bring a brown paper bag lunch for the in-house instructor out of fear and respect.
Producers not gonna do anything about it, you see the way he looked at the camera while eating his lunch it was like what do something.
I woulda fucked his arse up
In China, respect works a little bit differently than it does elsewhere...
I do Chinese martial arts and I applaud this guy's actions. You can tell that the guy who got beat up have never even sparred in his life. A style can only be used in such a way for how the user intends it to be used. Just like a knife. It can be used to kill others or slice and dice meat for cooking. I disagree with with Chinese martial arts being bullshit but I totally agree with putting the scammers in their place. Sadly this is the majority of the Chinese martial art community-lets just call it the *21st Century Jianghu*. lol
Shuyu are u against or for Chinese martial arts
"Chinese martial arts" covers a lot of ground, from village boxing styles (Wing Chun, Bak Mei), Boat Opera choreography (Hung Gar, Choy Lay Fut), wrestling (Shuai Cao, 18 Dragons Bagua), exercise (Tai Chi, 18 Lohan), dance (Wushu), competition (Sanda). Which particular category were you referring to? Also, I've found that what really makes the difference between an effective art and bullshit actually lies pretty much on the instructor's level of real experience, not necessarily the style.
Holy shit, an actual level-headed and reasonable response
Majority? You ever heard of Sanda? Lol just another troll.
A big part of the problem I see with a lot of traditional martial arts style practitioners is they master move sets but not application. That means they often end up thinking about what to do & not having enough time to do something or getting stuck in trying to pull off some sort of combination of movements like they're a character on a fighting game that's stuck in a move sequence(Maxi from Soul Calibur is a great example)
A big problem I see with many traditional styles is that they go too long without practicing application and end up getting too obsessed with style over substance when it comes to the move sets it focuses on training. The result is students mastering showy moves which makes them fall into extremely predictable patterns and being completely at a loss on what to do when the big fancy strike or combo they put everything they had into gets either avoided or neutralized. Before they can get over the shock that it didn't work & try something else, they get beat.
Sadly, even if they got a chance to regain their composure, it would just happen again because they lack *real* experience in fighting. Otherwise, they'd use the more reliable techniques from their style and put up a decent fight from the beginning.
I love this guy and Vice too. Keep up the good work, big fan of you both.
