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.

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.
@@IamKin8989 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!!
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.
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.
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?
@@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."
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.

If your "super ancient martial art that can kill people with one finger" gets exposed whilst you actually believed in it, YOU are humiliating yourself by taking the challenge. Hes not humiliating you. Youre humiliating yourself by believing in this magic nonsense.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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.
being quiet is getting obsolete in this media bombing age. People are into instant gratification and will do anything to get noticed, even just a slice of mundane thought, they must post it with glory on twitter and shit

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"
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 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.
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
"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.
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 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.
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.
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
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.
There are other MMA fighters that have done this. Do a search on UA-cam and you'll find some fights between "no touch/death touch" Masters and MMA fighters. Of course, the "Death Touch" Masters get beat up very quickly.
Dim Mak refers to any kind of martial arts technique that can kill someone. It's not a martial arts. And there was a whole deal with those kinds of techniques and they were proven to be effective and actually work, even showed the science behind it.

Alt Right Black Knight - What?! Because of Hollywood?! What are you drinking? - Because that is some powerful stuff....I want some! China doesn't need Hollywood to stifle their males/martial arts prowess - their corrupt government does a perfectly fine job doing that themselves. Have you ever asked yourself, how their males do so well in the Olympics, yet do so poorly in the *international martial arts competition?* It's simple: It's called *state sanctioned and state approved* activities and training regimens. Activities that boost fighting capacities and aggression levels in their male populace, are considered threats to the government - which also coincides with their anti-weapons/firearms ownership laws. This is why they don't mind world class athleticism and training in "harmless" activities, that poses no threat to the government and it's authorities in uniform/police. The Chinese government are run by a bunch of paranoid pussies, that don't want serious martial arts competition and especially the *mentality of meritocracy* to give ANY impetus of uprisings towards their power and control. Which is why they will sanction and promote THE most ineffective arts amongst their own populace and the rest of the world - through their state controlled media and entertainment companies. This is why the Chinese government ALWAYS downplays the teachings, training, and philosophies of Bruce Lee - and all the time tested MMA ideologies, techniques, and training regimens. If the Chinese government were TRULY proud of their martial heritage, they *wouldn't* allow frauds like that tai chi "master" to exist. If they were truly proud AND capable, the Chinese would have THE oldest, largest, most world renowned, and most lucrative fight venue way before Muay Thai tournaments, Vale Tudo, K-1, Pride FC, and the UFC. If you think government played no part in their indoctrination and promotion of garbage arts - just compare British controlled Hong Kong Shaolin movies (that was OLD SCHOOL unsanctioned knowledge) with Gordon Liu (The 36th Chamber), versus Jet Li's "Shaolin Temple" the *state sanctioned* wushu horseshit of the mainland. The physical displays are so stark in contrast, you'd think the HK films were made by Karate masters with their less flowery and showy movements. Prior to the Communists, the Chinese governments ALLOWED *public* challenges between masters to settle who was best and promote that particular art. Today, we see very little of that. Everything under the umbrella is just SO wonderful and nothing is a true standout. This public fight with Xu and the poser, is hopefully a sign of things to come - meritocracy reigns supreme while the posers are humiliated.
Alt Right Black Knight - Sanda was developed ONLY after their martial artists kept on getting their asses handed to them by Muay Thai fighters in Thailand sports competitions. Chinese wrestling was downplayed by the government - notice how many mainland films and TV are DEVOID of Chinese wrestling? Why? Because it works, and they don't want it popular amongst it's citizenry. The Chinese government are run by pathetic weaklings that want the same of their populace. That is how the early Chinese were conquered for 100 yrs by the smaller nomadic tribe called the Mongols - that HAD a clue to real fighting and mentality. A warrior leadership, DEMANDS their populace to be the same. A greedy and weak leadership, DEMANDS the same. Just look at the many Western leaderships, run by greedy, pathetic, and weak bureaucrats that allows Muslims to run rampant in their nations....See how leaders tell their people/men to be simps, metrosexuals, and cucks. Same shit different nation.
Let’s be real wing chun can be effective for self defense, tai chi sucks hence why he lost. A Shaolin Warrior Monk would beat him in a no rules street fight due to their techniques
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
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.
most chinese martial artist teachers barely have any fight in their lives. They just learned from their master (usually parents) and fueled by fantasy martial art movies to think they are strong. By the end of the day, they are no different than dance teacher. While Kungfu is widely believed as father of all martial arts, it's traditional and their teachers always teach something very stupid in term of fight for survival, "be humble during the fight". Fun fact is that even Chinese army has not taught kungfu in their ranks for decades, but adopted western fighting style.
Unfortunately my theory is that the government burned or censored REAL Martial Arts for centuries because it would damage society. I mean the only left over ASIAN martial arts that was used in military application that works in real life that I know is Muay Thai. And maybe some fighting techniques with specific take downs/throws that functioned properly. I have heard that in the Vietnam War specific Vietnamese solders had some very deadly hand to hand combat that was better than the basic boxing and wrestling the USA had but logically I doubt that the Vietnamese government would ever reveal any of that.
@Fab StillSmokin The only Bruce Lee move that works is the oblique kick. As John Bone Jones proved that it fundamentally works in his fights but jokes on him cause he got kicked out for having weed in his car.
If the Tai Chi guy didn't want his ass kicked, he shouldn't have shown up. It would be like if I said that WWE style professional wrestling was a legitimate martial art, and then was astounded when an MMA guy kicked my ass.
ALL of these traditional frauds, need to be exposed by legit fighters! Many of the Chinese are disgusted with *not seeing* internationally recognized prize fighters and *champions.*
3:51 damn... Chinese censorship was right in front of our faces over 2 years ago. The guy who refuses to bow under any circumstances and does what he effing wants silenced. o_o #liberatechina
I can see why mma fighting would be better,most martial arts schools don't teach full combat ,they show you the moves and you do some sparring but you are mostly taught to pull your punches and not hurt anyone,most of it is the group facing the teacher in a line and copying him followed by team ups where you do the move but don't hit for real. Mma is taught more like boxing ,lots of heavybag work and full contact sparring with protective gear where you are learning how to fight for real not how to put on demos and this is probably why mma fighters win most of the time.
demonocus drumocus actually in my tae kwon do class we try to use bags. Contact sparring (if old enough). We also do real world examples along with traditional tae kwon do. The thing is most of our tae kwon do is original and works in real case scenarios. So for me. Martial arts wins. It teaches you respect and it teaches you how to fight (unless you don't try or your instructor is horrible)
That's it. If you don't actually put your lessons into practice, how do you know if it works for you, or works at all? Most "dojos" are bullshit. they will get you fit, and coordinated. But unless your allowed to actually fight, you will never know if your teacher is full of shit or not. The only reason any traditional martial artists ever win against an mma fighter, is because that traditionalist would have been actually fighting people. And the mma fighter is probably not that great. And the traditionalist will most likely fight like an mma fighter anyways. Using only techniques that will actually work, but returning to a traditional stance. So it looks like "Karate" maybe, but at it's core is really just common sense, practical techniques that work. My instructor always says to new students. "If I make you lay on the ground, and teach you the techniques for swimming over a few years, then drop you out in the middle of a lake. Do you think you will be able to swim to shore?" For any idiots reading, the answer is NO! You will drown. Pretty basic concept.
Agreed. You get good at what you practice. If you spend your time doing tai chi form work you won't be good at fighting. If you spend 6 days a week training in the ring then you'd be good a t fighting. This is why MMA wins 9 times out of ten because they train for real fights.
Alias Fakename he beat up an old deluded Moron, hardly a noble act was it? Fair enough knock out a fake Thai boxing coach or tap out a fake black belt this was just some ego-trip for what looks to be a kind of fat Chinese douché
Jordan That old man was offering 5 grand to anybody who could beat him in a fight! He knew what he was doing & brought that ass whooping upon himself...
rurutu M Actually, no. Everything about verified taiji history speaks otherwise. Many of the taiji postures are for example taken from General Qi Jiguang's famous hand-to-hand fighting manual, implying the martial meaning of all the actions.
Yeah that is true, but he is challenging all Chinese Martial Arts. Not just tai chi, and that old guy came out and openly said he'll beat his ass. And the opposite happened. He isn't a bully, simply just wants to prove that Chinese Martial arts has no place in Modern Combat is all
Yes, it can be made to work, since on a technical level the teaching is sound and profound. The deal is that most taiji you are likely to come across is PRC bastardized standardized taiji for health purposes without any martial content (and yes, taiji is proven to be beneficial for joints and balance in several studies, especially improving agility and decreasing falling accidents among the elderly). And even in the small majority that claims to "train for fighting" focuses on the bodywork and skill-building instead of alive training and pressure testing. In the end it's so much about the image of what you feel like training; if you would do your taiji wearing a rash guard or Muay Thai shorts it would kinda ruin the image of ancient Chinese fighting wisdom, aye? And here's a video for you of taiji vs wrestling (perhaps?) sparring. It's not superhuman or miraculous powers, but the small guy does fairly well. ua-cam.com/video/dTP16HPFMms/v-deo.html
rurutu M well i know that. and you and this guy knows that. but the Chinese government wants to lie and keep up the illusion that its good for fighting. lol
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.
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
Isn't shaolin only really practiced by those monks who live in temples their whole lives? I didn't think they were in the business of sending monks out to compete in televised fights. But maybe that's just the pop culture image.
shaolin is a bunch of protected, underfed monks. it's a joke that they could win a fight vs any trained mixed martial artist. what do you train dumbass
Bruce Lee's fancy punching techniques do not work in real fighting, Maybe he has some good kicks but that's it. An amateur mma guy will mop the floor with Bruce Lee.

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!!

Me too. No racist people would love Bruce Lee.
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 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.

@@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."
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.

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.

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.
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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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!!
whats up this the interviewer's hair???!!!
Loves Marge Simpson
Joffrey Alcantara it was a hair style back from the early 1990’s and late 1980’s. Will Smith use to have it, Mc Hammer, Kid & Play, and other rappers.
@@carlospayan5638 nah man, you talk about High Top but that's not his haircut
Makta972 whatever man! There is no difference!
Same hair as from Kid & Play from 1980's ua-cam.com/video/Z1l5PFs2eTc/v-deo.html
Maybe they should have an interviewer who knows at least the basics of mma lol.
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.
*He should expose the Dim Mak (Death Touch) instructors*
Van dam used it blood sport and it worked
There are other MMA fighters that have done this. Do a search on UA-cam and you'll find some fights between "no touch/death touch" Masters and MMA fighters. Of course, the "Death Touch" Masters get beat up very quickly.
Yass!
Dim Mak refers to any kind of martial arts technique that can kill someone.
It's not a martial arts.
And there was a whole deal with those kinds of techniques and they were proven to be effective and actually work, even showed the science behind it.
he should fight with Kenshiro
Oh shit this is the dude that beat the shit outta that Tai Chi guy lol
Will someone please send this man a real Corinthian helm. He deserves it.
It was them who claimed they can beat a MMA fighter. It was never his fault.
As a long time Wing chun student. Im all for Xu doing this and back him 100%. 👊
Wait until he embarrasses a wing chun "master". I hope Xu and many other Chinese MMA fighters, exposes all of the frauds in Chinese martial arts.
TheScotchaholic im 40 and feel like i know enough of my style to defend myself and stay fit n healthy. but there are so many fakes out there! 👍money not principal or sport is all theyre after!
Alt Right Black Knight -
What?! Because of Hollywood?! What are you drinking? - Because that is some powerful stuff....I want some!
China doesn't need Hollywood to stifle their males/martial arts prowess - their corrupt government does a perfectly fine job doing that themselves. Have you ever asked yourself, how their males do so well in the Olympics, yet do so poorly in the *international martial arts competition?* It's simple:
It's called *state sanctioned and state approved* activities and training regimens.
Activities that boost fighting capacities and aggression levels in their male populace, are considered threats to the government - which also coincides with their anti-weapons/firearms ownership laws.
This is why they don't mind world class athleticism and training in "harmless" activities, that poses no threat to the government and it's authorities in uniform/police.
The Chinese government are run by a bunch of paranoid pussies, that don't want serious martial arts competition and especially the *mentality of meritocracy* to give ANY impetus of uprisings towards their power and control. Which is why they will sanction and promote THE most ineffective arts amongst their own populace and the rest of the world - through their state controlled media and entertainment companies.
This is why the Chinese government ALWAYS downplays the teachings, training, and philosophies of Bruce Lee - and all the time tested MMA ideologies, techniques, and training regimens.
If the Chinese government were TRULY proud of their martial heritage, they *wouldn't* allow frauds like that tai chi "master" to exist. If they were truly proud AND capable, the Chinese would have THE oldest, largest, most world renowned, and most lucrative fight venue way before Muay Thai tournaments, Vale Tudo, K-1, Pride FC, and the UFC.
If you think government played no part in their indoctrination and promotion of garbage arts - just compare British controlled Hong Kong Shaolin movies (that was OLD SCHOOL unsanctioned knowledge) with Gordon Liu (The 36th Chamber), versus Jet Li's "Shaolin Temple" the *state sanctioned* wushu horseshit of the mainland. The physical displays are so stark in contrast, you'd think the HK films were made by Karate masters with their less flowery and showy movements.
Prior to the Communists, the Chinese governments ALLOWED *public* challenges between masters to settle who was best and promote that particular art. Today, we see very little of that. Everything under the umbrella is just SO wonderful and nothing is a true standout.
This public fight with Xu and the poser, is hopefully a sign of things to come - meritocracy reigns supreme while the posers are humiliated.
Alt Right Black Knight -
Sanda was developed ONLY after their martial artists kept on getting their asses handed to them by Muay Thai fighters in Thailand sports competitions. Chinese wrestling was downplayed by the government - notice how many mainland films and TV are DEVOID of Chinese wrestling? Why? Because it works, and they don't want it popular amongst it's citizenry.
The Chinese government are run by pathetic weaklings that want the same of their populace. That is how the early Chinese were conquered for 100 yrs by the smaller nomadic tribe called the Mongols - that HAD a clue to real fighting and mentality.
A warrior leadership, DEMANDS their populace to be the same. A greedy and weak leadership, DEMANDS the same.
Just look at the many Western leaderships, run by greedy, pathetic, and weak bureaucrats that allows Muslims to run rampant in their nations....See how leaders tell their people/men to be simps, metrosexuals, and cucks. Same shit different nation.
Let’s be real wing chun can be effective for self defense, tai chi sucks hence why he lost. A Shaolin Warrior Monk would beat him in a no rules street fight due to their techniques
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.....

Sr. Solowinski Bravo marge simpson
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...
Fighting a Tai Chi master proves nothing except the MMA guy is a bully. It's like a pro boxer fighting a yoga teacher. He's just a bully.
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.
I hope this guy picks out all fake woo woo guys and dump them in trash bins. Respect to True Martial arts.
If the art loses, is it not a true martial art?
BJJ loses all the time.
Kevin Phillips martial arts basically fighting in style lol
And MMA is mixed martial arts. It should also loose,. Multiple times. Lol what noobs.
Kevin Phillips but also wins all the time and the people beating they also usually train bjj
Life Is Hella Strange well mma isn't a real martial arts....
GERALD MARTIN FROM HEY ARNOLD 1:26
Beautiful call, that is so old school and nostalgic :).
Kid n Play
1:22
old school ? OK
AC R thats shows a trip
Not every martial artist is a fighter and viceversa. Simple.
The problem is not the martial arts themselves but lack of realistic sparring and more focus on perfection of form rather than application
Master of The burritos best comment
Depends on what you train for. Ring fighting, street combat, forms competition, etc. They all have different things to focus on.
They are useless shit.
Swole Fucking Meatball Has to be true if we hear it from a swole fucking meatball, no less.
San Qiang Li more importantly do you train to be hit the face
How can Martial Arts be real if your Marge Simpson ain't?

"People know me as the rapping teacher"
at12 Laugh my fucking ass off
Brilliant
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.
most chinese martial artist teachers barely have any fight in their lives. They just learned from their master (usually parents) and fueled by fantasy martial art movies to think they are strong. By the end of the day, they are no different than dance teacher. While Kungfu is widely believed as father of all martial arts, it's traditional and their teachers always teach something very stupid in term of fight for survival, "be humble during the fight". Fun fact is that even Chinese army has not taught kungfu in their ranks for decades, but adopted western fighting style.
they are pure money talkers, so yes
Unfortunately my theory is that the government burned or censored REAL Martial Arts for centuries because it would damage society. I mean the only left over ASIAN martial arts that was used in military application that works in real life that I know is Muay Thai. And maybe some fighting techniques with specific take downs/throws that functioned properly. I have heard that in the Vietnam War specific Vietnamese solders had some very deadly hand to hand combat that was better than the basic boxing and wrestling the USA had but logically I doubt that the Vietnamese government would ever reveal any of that.
@Fab StillSmokin The only Bruce Lee move that works is the oblique kick. As John Bone Jones proved that it fundamentally works in his fights but jokes on him cause he got kicked out for having weed in his car.
Bro, what's up with the "Marge Simpson" haircut?
in the Kung Fu movie and story, the older you are, the more bad ass.......all sifu are old, arent they? lol
I hate him because he stole food
esklam der Mee too, what an asshole! Sealing somebody else's lunch.
Pretty much UFC culture in a nutshell.
You wouldn't if he gave it to you to eat.
China need more tough guy like you. My mma fighter. I'm proud of you, bro. From South Korea.
I'm personally happy how this is developing. It will turn out whether the ancient systems are outdated or still viable.
If the Tai Chi guy didn't want his ass kicked, he shouldn't have shown up.
It would be like if I said that WWE style professional wrestling was a legitimate martial art, and then was astounded when an MMA guy kicked my ass.
ALL of these traditional frauds, need to be exposed by legit fighters! Many of the Chinese are disgusted with *not seeing* internationally recognized prize fighters and *champions.*
Aian Lacruzel catch wrestling?
Until Brock Lesnar showed up and kicked the MMA guy's ass
ProfitableLifestyles yeah but he's a genetic freak and he did division one wrestling which is legitimate grappling
the only issue with that statement is that WWE wrestlers are fuckhuge and tombstone this dude into oblivion lol
Holy shit he ripped his manager good.
3:51 damn... Chinese censorship was right in front of our faces over 2 years ago. The guy who refuses to bow under any circumstances and does what he effing wants silenced. o_o #liberatechina
Hey vice! Your “journalist” has the most ridiculous hair.
ButterTooth Blaha what you expect is vice lmao
STOP HATING
It's all for show, like how most staff of Buzzfeedblue are gay, so you can have something to talk about.
look up kid at play from a hundred years ago... okay, maybe not quite a hundred. 90's ought to do it..😂
@Desuo and he's free to say that hairstyle is ugly as shit
I can see why mma fighting would be better,most martial arts schools don't teach full combat ,they show you the moves and you do some sparring but you are mostly taught to pull your punches and not hurt anyone,most of it is the group facing the teacher in a line and copying him followed by team ups where you do the move but don't hit for real.
Mma is taught more like boxing ,lots of heavybag work and full contact sparring with protective gear where you are learning how to fight for real not how to put on demos and this is probably why mma fighters win most of the time.
demonocus drumocus actually in my tae kwon do class we try to use bags. Contact sparring (if old enough). We also do real world examples along with traditional tae kwon do. The thing is most of our tae kwon do is original and works in real case scenarios. So for me. Martial arts wins. It teaches you respect and it teaches you how to fight (unless you don't try or your instructor is horrible)
That's it. If you don't actually put your lessons into practice, how do you know if it works for you, or works at all? Most "dojos" are bullshit. they will get you fit, and coordinated. But unless your allowed to actually fight, you will never know if your teacher is full of shit or not. The only reason any traditional martial artists ever win against an mma fighter, is because that traditionalist would have been actually fighting people. And the mma fighter is probably not that great. And the traditionalist will most likely fight like an mma fighter anyways. Using only techniques that will actually work, but returning to a traditional stance. So it looks like "Karate" maybe, but at it's core is really just common sense, practical techniques that work. My instructor always says to new students. "If I make you lay on the ground, and teach you the techniques for swimming over a few years, then drop you out in the middle of a lake. Do you think you will be able to swim to shore?" For any idiots reading, the answer is NO! You will drown. Pretty basic concept.
Basically teaching them how to dance and pretending like it's self-defense. That's what I call fraud?
Not necessarily. The student is free to hone his techniques in real fights at his own risk away from the dojo.
Agreed. You get good at what you practice. If you spend your time doing tai chi form work you won't be good at fighting. If you spend 6 days a week training in the ring then you'd be good a t fighting. This is why MMA wins 9 times out of ten because they train for real fights.
I support this guy but I kinda lost respect seeing how he just stole a producer's lunch, unless he gave it to him then nevermind
Alias Fakename lol I thought it was funny
Alias Fakename he beat up an old deluded Moron, hardly a noble act was it? Fair enough knock out a fake Thai boxing coach or tap out a fake black belt this was just some ego-trip for what looks to be a kind of fat Chinese douché
Throw him in with Nate diaz and that will shut his mouth
Jordan That old man was offering 5 grand to anybody who could beat him in a fight! He knew what he was doing & brought that ass whooping upon himself...
Lol cause he knows those hipster's aren't gonna do shit about it.
Once I saw the interviewer I just died.
tai chi isn't for fighting, it's more like keeping body healthy that's why you see a lot of old people doing it in parks
rurutu M Actually, no. Everything about verified taiji history speaks otherwise. Many of the taiji postures are for example taken from General Qi Jiguang's famous hand-to-hand fighting manual, implying the martial meaning of all the actions.
Ville-Pekka Turpeinen Too bad it doesn't work
Yeah that is true, but he is challenging all Chinese Martial Arts. Not just tai chi, and that old guy came out and openly said he'll beat his ass. And the opposite happened. He isn't a bully, simply just wants to prove that Chinese Martial arts has no place in Modern Combat is all
Yes, it can be made to work, since on a technical level the teaching is sound and profound. The deal is that most taiji you are likely to come across is PRC bastardized standardized taiji for health purposes without any martial content (and yes, taiji is proven to be beneficial for joints and balance in several studies, especially improving agility and decreasing falling accidents among the elderly). And even in the small majority that claims to "train for fighting" focuses on the bodywork and skill-building instead of alive training and pressure testing.
In the end it's so much about the image of what you feel like training; if you would do your taiji wearing a rash guard or Muay Thai shorts it would kinda ruin the image of ancient Chinese fighting wisdom, aye?
And here's a video for you of taiji vs wrestling (perhaps?) sparring. It's not superhuman or miraculous powers, but the small guy does fairly well. ua-cam.com/video/dTP16HPFMms/v-deo.html
rurutu M well i know that. and you and this guy knows that. but the Chinese government wants to lie and keep up the illusion that its good for fighting. lol
OMG!!! I loved you on Hey Arnold!
The argument with the manager was such an act 😂😂🤣🤣
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
hahaha.... "even stole and ate the producer's launch" lol
皇帝 Scott Yee for President of Earth 2020 yeah that was straight Savage!! lmao
He must challenge a shaolin master.
Al Castill have you challenge one?
Al Castill there are two types..... Long distance and short distance
He should challenge Boris Becker to a tennis match
Isn't shaolin only really practiced by those monks who live in temples their whole lives? I didn't think they were in the business of sending monks out to compete in televised fights. But maybe that's just the pop culture image.
shaolin is a bunch of protected, underfed monks. it's a joke that they could win a fight vs any trained mixed martial artist. what do you train dumbass
even Bruce Lee learned western moves to become a better fighter
he is the father of mma
Bruce Lee's fancy punching techniques do not work in real fighting, Maybe he has some good kicks but that's it. An amateur mma guy will mop the floor with Bruce Lee.
