    Everyone is always down on Karate and they always use point karate as the example. You comment without knowledge. All the hand and forearm conditioning Hisham is doing is known as Hojo Undo in Karate and has been in Goju since I started. Same conditioning even same attacks ua-cam.com/video/2gkBhN4A9Dw/v-deo.html So before you start sh1t talking Karate, go to Okinawa and try some old school Karate training. Finally your straight punch sucked big time. It is done a certain way as not expose the liver or spleen to a counter attack.

      brooklynmonk1 you, and your derogatory comments at time mark 0:50 to 54 seconds with words to the effect ”...doesn’t work because in Karate they do this..” that’s not karate. That is maybe American Kempo Karate or Modern “Sports” Karate but that is not traditional or real karate. Making uninformed and scurrilous comments means that you don’t know what karate is. Finally, I said that you’re straight punch sucks because that’s not how you do a karate straight punch. So you’re demonstrating something that is wrong, saying it is karate which is also wrong, and then you are being derogatory about it.

As for telling me to go to Okinawa...Really Okinawa? I have trained in about 20 countries in this series and fought in about 5, but Okinawa is the golden nugget of martial wisdom I missed in China, Mongolia, Korea, India...Specifically Okinawa holds the secret which no one else knows?

      brooklynmonk1 Now you’re trying to put words into my mouth. I said you don’t know about real karate therefore you shouldn’t make derogatory comments on it. Also I stated your karate punch is not a karate punch. Which displays your ignorance on the subject.I didn’t say anything about golden nuggets of wisdom contained in Okinawa. As for your claims going to different countries That doesn’t make you a legend in anyone’s mind except your own. However if you want to be derogatory and standby those statements fair enough.I’ve read your replies and watch your videos, you move like a buffoon and your understanding of martial arts is shallower than a parking lot puddle. Let’s face facts, regardless of claims you are just a typical blockhead who got in hired in finance when the times were good but couldn’t cut it when the crunch came. I will stand by those derogatory comments 😉👍🏻 have a good one
