If you're serious about Kung Fu, visit Byron's Channel: ua-cam.com/users/wushutigeriron Thank you to everyone that supports me by watching my videos and especially to those incredibly awesome people who have joined me on Patreon: patreon.com/serpentza
@Dig Byck the Kung Fu Frauds were the people who talked trash and challenged the MMA guy, so he was just defending himself and his reputation. The Chinese Govt punished a guy for self defense.
What I cannot begin to understand, is how these fake martial artists can be so deluded that they would actually accept such a challenge. Like, what the hell did they think was gonna happen?
@@StartRunning. please tell me that accent was unintentional. Since you're someone who uses "folly" unironically, I could see you adding an incorrect accent to a French word, thinking it made you look impressive. Unless you're not a native English speaker...In that case, using "folly" and an incorrect accent on an English/French word are of course uncriticizable
A martial artist refusing to fight someone because their art is 'too dangerous' is like me saying I can run faster than Usain Bolt but won't race him, because I just run so fast that I'd embarrass him badly and ruin his career, and I'm too humble to do that lol.
Well its a half truth but yes. The problem is that in some matarial arts like kungfu tiger style (in the real one) they literally teach you how to grab someones throath crush it and take the insides out with your bare hand grip steength and fingers within 1 sec. Someone who practiced this technique wil obviously not use it in the ring but then he looses like 10 year of practice from is arsenal. Also mma is "not real" in the sense that you cant do anything too dangerous with your oponent. So you cant just kick him in the nuts. BUT what you said is also true. A true warrior should be capeable of fighting in the ring too . And the problem is not that they lose but how they lose 99%of the time mainly because of the lack of real practice and sparing.
@@eggscheese2763 Horse shit, I'm afraid to inform you. Name one recorded incident where someone had their throat ripped out in the fashion you describe. I'll save you the trouble - there isn't one. Stories from ancient China don't count, nor do Kung Fu films. Try seeking actual evidence before you believe things, even if they sound good to you.
@Peter Peters that's what he do wtf u mean? He seeks out fake masters that cons people their money. You're literally talking shit about a guy who's cleaning your bs full of fakes martial art world
@@RobbieAdamss well maybe today noone is capeable of doing it but kicking someone in the nuts works pretty well :) and its nof fantasy if you practiced the perfect nut shot for 10 year and you cant use it is like saying that you cant throw jabs while boxing
(Taiwanese voice) So, there's another layer beyond the East vs West narrative. You need to understand that, in Chinese culture, filial piety is everything. When I was a kid, my dad was godlike and his dad was the god over my god. The first time I heard an American friend call his dad by his first name, I nearly fainted. Authority, in that culture, comes from age and wisdom. That's why, in Martial Art flicks, the most powerful guy is the super old dude. In the West, progress is forward looking with the new generations breaking through and improving upon the past. In Chinese culture, authority comes top-down and reaches backwards in time. That's why the MMA guy beating up the old "masters" was such a no-no. In that culture, your parents are authorities over your life; the government is big daddy. Their citizens might not be able to make public criticisms against the State, but kicking the old kung fu master's ass has all the implications which, of course, the communist party picked up right away.
I'm an American whose lived here the vast majority of his 31 years of existence and I have NEVER heard someone refer to their dad using their first name. That's just weird.
Thank you for that Ive studied some books on chinese culture And what you say is an echo of what ive read. Most americans have no clue at all about the chinese mind. Notice how one of the individuals answered your comment …….with …..laughter. That says alot.
@@amibrainwashed i have and it was strange to hear that .i had to actually get used to hearing it buts it. However notice how eric pubdeffs response was which is far more intense so it says alot of cultural identities.
My dad always told me kung fu is to build the body and mind. It's not for fighting and he was right. He taught me wing chun and one day in middle school I got fed up with bullies throwing my weeb friends into the dumpster and then I got thrown into the dumpster.
There is another reason that Byron didn't really discuss. During the cultural revolution when all traditional Chinese culture was black listed and attempts were made to exterminate it, many of the serious traditional Quanfa masters fled mainland China and went to HKG, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, etc. The few that remained in mainland China had to go into hiding and could not practice or teach their martial art publicly. This resulted in a whole generation gap in the passing down of traditional technique. Even when the government finally decided suppressing Chinese martial arts was a bad idea and tried to restore it, they banned SanDa competitions. They didn't want “comrades fighting comrades”. Also, masters who had remained in hiding during the cultural revolution were few and far between, and some had not practiced much or any during the prohibition, because getting caught by the red guard meant punishment or death. You can forget a lot and lose a lot of skill in fifteen or more years of not training. When the government in Beijing decided to create a contemporary Chinese “martial art” they focused on performance rather than combat. They took their interpretation of traditional quanfa techniques and combined them with gymnastics/acrobatics and Peking Opera to create contemporary Wushu and standardized Taiji Quan forms for performance and sports competition. While many people who practice these are amazing athletes, most of them have never thought about actual fighting application or practiced realistic sparring. Practicing forms alone or even two person “fighting forms” is not adequate training or preparation for a fight where another trained person is really trying to punch, kick, strike, lock and throw you as hard as they can. As Bruce Lee said, it is like trying to learn to swim on dry land. So many of these so called “masters” that Xu XiaoDong knocked out had never been in a sparring match, practice or otherwise in their lives. They had deluded themselves into thinking practicing their techniques and forms in the air was enough. There are still a few traditional martial artists in China who train in the old way, who know how to apply their technique, but they are few and far between.
*Bruce Lee* said it best when he said that he threw out what didn't work and kept what did. *MMA* is just that, coupled with other disciplines *not* found in Kung Fu.
Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do was the first mixed martial art. He invented this after studying and sparing with many different martial arts stylists. Bruce chose the most combat effective techniques and combined them together. He was only interested in combat effectives! He realised that Kata i.e. forms/patterns etc are useless for a real street fight or on the battlefield! Western boxing, Muay Thai (Thai kick boxing), Krav Magga and Russian System do not have any kata. They do lots of full contact free sparring. They learn to take hits i.e. full contact kicks and punches. Their training is really tough but realistic!
Okay but as Bruce Lee also stated Combat as it is should be taken like a dance between you and your opponent but a very serious dance. "If your talking about "Sport " that's one thing but if your talking about Combat then baby you better kill me before I get to you "
Bruce Lee SAID he threw out what didn't work, but it was, like, his opinion, man. MMA tournaments proved what does and does not work by people getting their heads smashed in or not. PLOT TWIST: what REALLY works is all the stuff the MMA tournaments prohibit. UFC was early days famous for "no rules" (even then not really) but that changed quite quickly. Look up UFC prohibited moves... it's a gold mine for personal defence training
Sadly, such nonsense isn't unique to the Chinese "martial artists". Akido is just as phony. The fraud has gotten so bad, people teach it like it's real. Similar matches have been made between "Akido Master" and Judo, for example. Needless to say, the Judo practitioner tossed the man around like a doll. You could see the "master" try to fight off the Judo opponent using his Chi force that always worked within his school with his students.
@@Americaninparis2012 not even unique to martial arts. Patriotism is the same way until wars. Sometimes you're kind of good, sometimes not. But the chest beating (so useful in politics) is just upping any self-delusion. It is useful for unity and short term pride.
@@ajaxmax7843 That and they are fake masters which damages the reputation of the marital art. Disrespectful to those who legitimately train in Chinese martial arts or any martial art for that matter.
the real Ip Man didn't even get into a real fight in his life at all, then they make a series of shitty movies to boost the chinese spirit that beating up the foriegners~
During the Boxer Rebellion, a lot of boxers were convinced by propaganda telling them that there were techniques that would make them bulletproof. I'm sure some of the more tested and rational martial artists knew this wasn't true, but certainly some believed it. Some of those who did found out the hard way.
@@prototurk-fv2wt ich weiß nicht worus Sie haben auf die Boxer gelernt. Ja, Wang Ziping war Muslim, aber er war kein große Führer der Boxer und meisten die Boxer waren nicht Muslime sondern typische Chinesen. Es gibt keine magische Technik, dass man kugelsicher macht. Diese Technike sind nur chinesische Mythologie und Legenden oder sind doch total Schwachsinn. Es gibt blöde Geschichte in jede Kultur über Technike, Getränke, Gebete, Amulette, etc. dass man kugelsicher macht. Bitte glauben Sie nicht die Scheiße. Nur Deckung oder Panzerung machen man ein bischen kugelsicher. Vielen Chinesen sind gafallen, weil sie diese Scheiße geglaubt haben. Bitte vergeben Sie mich für mein schlechtes Deutsch. Selten schreibe ich jetzt auf diese Sprache.
I know only a little about martial arts and even less about rugby and I could still see all the bits where the rugby players were letting the "master" get away.
I never watched rugby before so after reading your comment I watched a rugby match. Omg there brutal. they where going so easy on this master not even pinning him
It's all junk.. like the guys who break stacks of boards and bricks, but they break like they were sawed. Take a sledge hammer and break a board and it will shatter and splinter. I've seen "martial artists" fight boxers, and as long as they can kick and run, they hold their own... but, when the boxer gets within punching range, it's all over.
The unknown is often viewed as mystical. While stationed in Korea I learned that practioners of Taekwondo view a lot of the Chinese martial arts as dancing. I don't underestimate anyone that practices what they do. China has really put itself out there as an internal and international bully. I commend this guy for exposing some of the nonsense. I'm surprised this made it out.
In the army there was a teakwondo guy ... won a few comps, and was a complete ass. He bullied me so I greb him buy the nuts and jaw and slammed his face into the ground ... and im not a train fighter ... I just got angry ... needless to say ... happy ending.
I played american football when I was 10 and I cringe at that rugby footage. 10 year olds wouldnt have been allowed to play if they were that bad at tackling
Some martial arts are traditional, but it never hurts to try and evolve them into combat/ competitive/ street fighting. As Bruce Lee said, "Rehearsed routines lack the flexibility to adapt." One should try to be creative, practice with experienced fighters/practitioners, and adapt a style that fits with the situation.
That could be, though this comment kinda misses the point of the problem addressed in this video. The guy who got beat wasn't a traditional martial artist or any type of professional martial artist whatsoever. He was a fraud.
as useful certain techniques may be it's always more important to train the foundations before the techniques. You could have memorized as many techniques in the entire world and you would still end up having your ass beaten by a guy who mastered his footwork, stamina, and strength instead of technique.
True but Bruce Lee was also unconventional in his belief that there's a lot in eastern martial arts that gets in the way of just beating the shit out of people.
You get two nations of 100 million each. Give them a fighting sport to develop with fixed rules to develop in seclusion. They will have almost exactly the same technique. Biologists call this convergent evolution. I watched "fight commentary breakdowns" throughout the pandemic, which is basically a Chinese American dude narrating traditional Chinese martial artists getting beaten down by MMA practitioners. One notable thing was the 1930s to 1940s videos on the channel. This included French Sanshou practitioners going at it, long term US army types fighting with boxing and wrestling techniques, Chinese nationalists practicing dao fencing, and someone trying a jian form that his grandfather had taught him in his basement. The notable thing was that the dao fencers used very similar techniques to western saber fencers, while the basement Jian dude's techniques were not applicable to anything. There are two interpretations that I'm split between: 1. Actual Chinese killing arts, as practiced by the nationalists, actually don't look much different than Western Martial arts. The communists chose to emphasize theater arts instead. 2. Chinese martial arts were actually destroyed by the Manchu, leaving only stage arts. The Nationalists were actually just implementing Prussian training with Chinese weapons.
I spent time training in what was considered a "hard core" traditional martial arts school in China. There was a lot of tough training going on there and some of those people had developed some serious talents but it all came across as more artistic than combat related. It was great for show and intimidation but for fighting against well trained, combat-oriented people who were not going to lose their focus, it wasn't that useful.
@@killaken2000 I agree with your statement with very few select Chinese martial arts, but the remainder, I'd say the problem is that there are a lot of 'masters' who fool others into thinking that they are a 'master'. What is the criteria to be a master? Easy! You just call yourself one! You can do it right now! One of those frauds in the video knows 'Thunder Style Tai Chi' which is not a thing! The problem is that people are criticizing these 'masters' as if they are actual representatives of the styles, but I think that's giving the frauds way too much respect. Before even criticizing the training, people should criticize that these 'masters' don't even know the art to being with.
@@DylanBegazo You are correct that in fighting, aesthetics do not matter and funtionality should be prioritized. However, there are many practitioners who intentionally practices Chinese Martial Arts for performances. You may often see videos of people wearing silky attire (designed to make you look more fluid) with Chinese music in the background, performing a form. This is not a mistake of their part; some simply do not practice for fighting but for performances.
Bruce was so ahead of his time, he actually called these kung Kung fu systems/performances "the classical mess". Many Real Chinese kung fu was eliminated and was forbidden to practice during the cultural revolution.
I think there are important elements to Kung Fu for a philosophical, meditative, modest, and simple life. Sadly it seems that Chinese society today reflects none of the values of Kung Fu.
These trash-talk on this page I doubt that they understand that aspect of Kung-Fu… all the only they understand about Kung-Fu is just the combat aspect!
Exactly, people really don't understand the term of "art" in martial arts. More than a combat system, they focus a lot on the mental , spiritual and artistic sides.
A (Maori) friend of mine was taught Aikido from the age of 7. His dad, ex-forces, didn't want a thug son. And until the age of 14 he was smashed to bits by school thugs. So his dad relented and took him to Muay Thai and within 2 years he was a beast. BUT all the training and theory from his Aikido did come into play once he got his "brawling" skills up. But he needed to learn how to take punches, take kicks, take pain, and by physical in attacks, before the theory could be put into practice. There is nothing wrong with a lot of martial arts, but as Mike Tyson said "everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face". So IMO cross-training is where it is at. Whatever fancy style you train in, be it Kung Fu or Karate, be it Judo or BJJ, be it any weapon style, be it hard or soft... add some tough-gym kickboxing too. Get used to throwing a punch and taking a punch.
Well Tyson got smashed by a bouncer at a pub. Just like that other Boxing Heavy weight champion who talked his way into the UFC fight and got mauled in the first round with out even swinging a punch. The guy who fought him actually punched him several times before choking him out.
Traditional Martial Arts has become redundant completely. Only through full contact training especially boxing one can learn how to deal with the shock and awe of consistent attacks...
Even Bruce Lee learned when he came to the west, that even someone with a rudimentary understanding of grappling can take down an advanced striker. And he started to incorporate it into his training. I don't mean to knock Wushu but grappling, catch-can wrestling, even greco roman are just more practical to use in a combat situation. It doesn't hurt that wrestlers tend to be few well conditioned athletes that can grapple for an hour.
He realized the limitations of Wing Chun and studied fencing, western boxing, grappling, silat, FMA, and more. However concepts from Wing Chun did not completely disappear in his approach. Trapping in boxing was an example - you can see this in fighters like lomachenko
Once you hit a grappler hard enough in the face, their strength will quickly drain away. You just have to be bolder... there's nothing really bold about using grappling skills to take someone down and hold him. But to smash someone's face in as hard as you can... that's bold, and if you do it early, the wrestler has no chance.
@@buddyrevell511 "But to smash someone's face in as hard as you can... that's bold, and if you do it early, the wrestler has no chance." Do you mean sucker punching someone?
@NanuNanu81 Martial arts only allows you to combat someone who also uses that same martial art. A kung fu fighter has nothing to combat say, a boxer for example. Or just a proper MMA fighter.
If you want to win a fight, not a competition, read the MMA rule book, Learn everything they have banned, and do those things. It's unlikely an MMA fighter will throw a punch in a bus queue, bar, or just the street.
@@KillerBill1953 Just because they are banned doesn't mean that an MMA fighter wouldn't know how to use it. Many still train headbutts, know how to slam you on your head, will kick you in the genitals or stomp on your head while your down. " It's unlikely an MMA fighter will throw a punch in a bus queue, bar, or just the street." Yeah, they'll probably elbow you or grapple with you. What's your point?
Xu Xiaodong should be seen as a national hero. Bruce Lee tore apart "traditional" martial arts too. It's not so much east vs west, but rather evolution vs stupidity. Western martial artists don't cling to old ways for no reason. They're simply always trying to improve, and have no problem mixing the best of Brazilian jiu-jitsu with Muay Thai, Wing-chun, boxing, & Grav-maga. They're just going with what is working, rather than playing make-believe to appease a few idiots.
@Oh Wait Could he actually fight or was he just another one of these 'masters' practising techniques against slow motion non resistant training buddies?
@Paul Nunis. That's James Randi. I'm not a spelling Nazi, I just think that names are different especially since Randi is such a fascinating man and well worth looking up, as is Derren Brown. 😁
*So videos of Kung Fu masters that don’t know how to block punches? Fake and staged - the NWO wants to disarm the Human race by taking away their guns and introducing a popular but ineffective fighting system (MMA) to teach Humans how to fight incorrectly - that way they are completely defenseless when the NWO takes over.* *These fake “Kung Fu master vs MMA fighter” videos are propaganda.*
I trained in china with a few different people and the best Chinese fighters were muay thai style. All the Tai chi dudes never wanted to spar or show that their stuff worked.
The proper martial artists are hard to find, there’s one guy who wasn’t born nor raised in China who did numerous trips there to look at different styles. He said in his opinion, only two of them were useful in an actual fight.
@@mmfong297 even ju jitsu is a bit rubbish tbh with you- takes way too long to even get moderately good and it is very expensive. Amature level Boxing + wrestling will ALWAYS pull you through against an average person with no sparring experience. That is why khabib who just spams ground and pound is the p4p GOAT.
I respect Byron's discipline, his endeavor to study Chinese martial arts, and revealing the prevalence of fraudsters exploiting nationalist sentiments . But after speaking candidly about this, an update may be required. has he been jailed, sent away to be"re-educated", experienced a vastly lowered 'Social Credit score', or been kicked out of China yet?
I just started watching your and C Milk's channels a few days ago, and I feel like I've learned more about China in the past few days watching your guys' videos, than in all the years of my life. Well done and thank you so much for all the content you guys put out!
It doesn't matter; the techniques themselves are simply bunk exactly because they're NOT designed to work in real life i.e. self defense. The only way i.e. Aikido works is when you have compliant and oftenly one armed opponents. You know what I'm talking about. Same for most Karate. Wing Chun it'is just pathetic and pushed wildly for no reason ( the whole LPMan saga is a big propaganda move ). Kung Fu? Yeah I was fond of Ninja Turtles more or less 25 yrs ago. Let's be real
@@kanstehnewbie its is the techniques - when kung fu guys leave china to fight they either start doing kickboxing/mma/boxing/muay thai cause they get they asses beat just trying to fight Kung Fu VS any other style where you actually fight
I just recently learned of the concept of "junk science" in the field of Forensics. This concept also applies very strongly to the traditional martial arts. Pure traditional martial artists commonly try to rationalize how they would beat an MMA fighter "if it was a real fight" based on hypothetical arguments. Effectively, traditional martial artists use a form of "junk science" to argue the merit of their worthless styles that are not pressure-tested and are unproven.
I remember my mother wanting to send me to the Tae Kwon Do shop around the corner because my cousins used to go there and I used to get into fights with Bullies all the damn time. Being in the hood, you can expect this when tough guys are hyped up in the community. So, I denied and wouldn't go to any Karate or TKD club, I would have done boxing or Grappling type martial arts. Capoeria and other arts are beautiful, but I did my research as little as it was at the time and came to the conclusion that if somebody was a legit street fighter or larger than me and liked to grab, got a hold of me I probably wouldn't win that fight with choreography. Needless to say, I never joined a club, and this kid who knew karate in my school was being hyped up by some kids, he acted like he wanted to fight me, but he wouldn't even come down the stairs to back his talk up. At that point, I was like most of these teachers/forms are frauds.
Watch Ganryujima (as an example) and you can see, that many TMAs don`t have a problem with it and could be able to make good MMA matches. Xu Xiadong wouldn`t be that arrogant anymore if he would fight such one TMAs and not those "masters", who surely haven' t really fought for years (if not decades) or those fake fighters.
Yeah, that's the reason I'm not doing martial arts. In order not to just be a larper, you need to get hit in the head and I can't afford to be any stupider.
@@funkmonkeyfun That's such an idiotic quote and people, who have no clue about martial arts, keep posting it everywhere. Having a plan, prepairing, studying your opponent is crucial and becomes more important the more competitive it gets. You can prepair for getting punched in the face by being punched in the face.
I had the unbelievable luck of being able to study Tai Chi with a real Chinese Grandmaster, I mean a real Grandmaster. His body was like steal. One time he said "here hold my arm", which seemed a bit strange but he held out his arm and I put my hand under it, as he relaxed and dropped the full weight of his arm into my hand I almost lurched forward - his arm was so heavy it was shocking! I was not expecting it. Of course he knew what I was going to experience. He had often said Tai Chi makes your bones heavier. And he proved it that day. He was almost 80 years old and had been doing standing exercises probably a couple hours a day for many many years. That has the same effect as weight bearing exercises which science now knows increases bone density. Based on how heavy his arm was his bone density must have been through the roof. He did not have big bulky muscles at all, he looked like a little old Chinese guy. People ask or say "maybe he was pushing down", no he was not, you can tell if someone is doing that. At that time I had been doing some Kung Fu, Tai Chi, and studying Shiatsu and Chinese Medicine. I knew about what the average weight of a person's arm was. This was way way beyond that - shocking isn't a strong enough word for what it felt like. But that is the secret to accumulating Chi, it's in the bones not the muscles. And his bones were like iron! I think it would be hard to hurt him. I knew 2 black belts who went to see him. He told them to kick and punch him as hard as they could, they did, he just stood there laughing. His name was John Chung Li if you care to look him up. There was a Vimeo video of him doing his form with was a combination of styles, Tai Chi and Li hua ba fa, I'm sure I am not spelling it right! :)
I am a licensed MMA ref and judge for a great many years and for some relatively big names and events. Other than random (as needed) individual state licenses, I am licensed by the largest MMA organization in all 50 states for life (goodness that sounds like a lie ha ha). I've reffed an uncountable amount of fighters over the years as well as trained in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, wrestling, judo, kick-boxing, Muah Thai, etc from a list of professionally accomplished fighters and we produced a UFC champion (Rampage). I've reffed precious few guys with a kung Fu base, and for good reason...it's simply impractical. I can't possibly count how many little nerdy morons will swear by some old guy somewhere who doesn't compete professionally as though he's some magical mystic who started his training in Hogwarts. I enjoy kung fu in various forms as it is fun to watch. There is nothing I would rather see in movies. Wushu in particular is often used because of its flamboyancy (much of it was incorporated into Darth Maul for example). It's also an incredibly ineffective martial art. As far as actual fighting goes, the overwhelming majority of things taught in Kung-Fu are utterly ridiculous. With a great many of them, you would be equally suited with a black belt in tap dancing. Even Bruce Lee was highly critical of many forms of kung fu that look fantastic but are just awful. Boxing is called the sweet science for a reason. There are angles. There is weight distribution. A particular stance is given for reasons. And keep your chin down. Look at many of these Kung Fu stances. Look at the dramatic ways many of them attempt to strike. Or how much power or timing is sometimes lost by keeping within a particular style. I'm not saying there is nothing good in one form of kung fu or another. Karate, which of course is not a type of kung fu, is at least effective in being evasive, but I'd be hard-pressed to find anyting else that's good in it. Taekwondo has good high kicks. I mean we can talk forever. But a good form of kickboxing or Muay Thai is significantly more scientific and they have a proven track record. Once mixed martial arts became mainstream and spread across the globe, all of this Kung-Fu nonsense was exposed. Yes I know there are so many people that would tell me how wrong I am. I would ask them to show me one highly effective professional fighter who sticks solely to his Kung Fu and doesn't incorporate jiu-Jitsu or another form of striking or this or that. It just simply doesn't exist. It doesn't. And I've heard every excuse under the sun as to why this person or that person is best but doesn't compete for (insert random cop-out reasoning here). I personally really love watching a good kung fu movie. As a little kid in the 80s, me and one of my brothers watched Kung Fu theater every day. I love that stuff. I don't want to see effective martial arts in those kinds of movies because it's not nearly as fun to watch. Donnie Yen did one movie in particular where they used actual effective martial arts. He said he always wanted to do it. I watched it and I enjoyed it but not nearly as much as watching him do his typical over-the-top stuff. I've even known a couple of proper mixed martial artists who wanted to learn some form of crazy Kung Fu just for the sheer fun of it. And that's cool. But this whole Kung Fu thing has been the biggest farce. As an actual fighting style, its an absolute joke. It cant be overstated. Its childish nonsense. Anyone can say anything, but the proof is in the pudding isn't it. For sure they tried. And we're promptly embarrassed because they were fighting like an idiot. There is a science to fighting. That science is not a respecter of culture or desire, or an active imagination. Having said that...ok youtube...come at me nerds! :P
I second that. Did Krav Maga. Where there is one single goal: „neutralize“ your opponents (and get out alive). Not much culture, not much tradition. No nonsense. Just what works the most effective under any circumstances. Kung Fu is great as a training, a mental attitude etc. I traveled china and have seen a lot of Kung Fu trainings. Impressive to watch. But in a real self defense situation I prefer Krav Maga.
Zero-Kiryu, I appreciate your commentary. You highlight the cinematic quality of Kung Fu. The closest to martial arts I've come to is listening to a few Joe Rogan podcasts & watching Teddy Atlas provide commentary to a boxing match. You have a tough job keeping fighters safe & walking out of the arena alive...Thanks :)
Can't agree with you more..!! Coming from chinese martial arts back ground, modern day MMA is simplify too efficient, evolved and grounded from much past experience of other arts.. It is literally now the textbook science of fighting.
@deee 327 Jackie Chan learn his martial arts through Opera Chinese Opera at that it's not real martial arts it's for theatrics if you don't know what Chinese Opera is you need to research it, they learned the style for the performance but they cannot use it in a practical sense
@Brainjock if you can find traditional serious teacher you want to have to worry about theatrics and wushu is basically performance martial arts that's what Jet Li learn, Jackie Chan learn Chinese Opera that incorporates martial arts are different forms and styles and techniques but to say he's a serious martial artist that can use these techniques in a actual live action competition or real life fighting the answer will be no to somebody that is not experienced martial artist yet he could defeat them really easily what is simple hand to hand techniques but to sit here and say that he is serious martial artist that has competed the answer is no, he is literary a martial artist on screen
Thats why alot of us in the west got into it , I read william cheung books (chi Power) etc , its great as a kid but when your older nothing beats a good headbutt and elbows
"When the truth offends, we lie and lie until we can no longer remember it is even there, but it is still there. Every lie we tell incurs a debt to the truth. Sooner or later, that debt is paid."
When the forces of good are too weak to overcome evil, a nemesis is spawned, since evil is inherently self-defeating. Reactionary behavior, pragmatism, those further evil's agenda, since they do not bring anything new and good into this world.
Thank you for this video! I grew up in China and love my culture. The part that really pisses me off is that this whole fake Kung Fu stuff to promote culture and nationalism is so unnecessary. Kung Fu is cool and great to begin with, there is no need to add all that fluff. For those that don't know, all of those things mentioned here and more, including that stuff about the guy with the pigeon unable to fly from his hand, comes from a class of Chinese fiction literature called WuXia, which mystifies Kung Fu. I happen to be a huge fan of those literature and it has a very big following in China. Most people are smart enough to recognize the story and Kung Fu tricks from the novels to be just that, fiction. Unfortunately we do have people that genuinely believe in the ability of a Kung Fu master to fly, or to knock down 20 huge men with a single punch. Plus there are also those who will try to benefit from the ignorance of others, thereby selling "traditional Chinese Medicine" or "miracle treatments", which, just like this Kung Fu thing, takes away from the credibility of the real Chinese Medicine. In my opinion, all of these actually stems from the fact that China has been the target of many foreign domination and invasions for about a century, starting in the later half of the 18th century and our national self esteem has really taken a hit. These gimmicks are just our government trying to overcompensate. It's sad because I know for a fact that the Chinese culture that I grew up to love and treasure is more than enough to impress anyone, had we just promote them for what they really are.
We can generally put martial arts in 2 categories. The ones practiced by monks and the rest. Martial arts that are never exposed to the outside will be effectivene against itself but can't counter other things because these moves joust dont exist. The effective ones are the ones which have been used during war, the ones which are used by the general people and the ones for really serious competition's.
Kung Fu lacks pressure testing, and it turns out that centuries of practical dance and orchestrated moves are no match for those styles that have had persistent and consistent pressure testing. Lei Lei is just one of quite a few proclaimed "masters", "official" and "unofficial", that Xu and others have thumped by dragging them out of centuries of orchestrated stupidity, kicking and screaming into reality. There's a reason Pancrase, Western Boxing, Muay Thai, Wrestling, Jiu Jitsu, Judo, etc. have clubbed the shit out of this fantastical stupidity.
There are hardly any real Kung fu masters left out there . Traditional Karate comes from Traditional Kung fu Traditional Japanese Ju-Jitsu comes from Kung fu . I am all for exposing any fraud out there in any art / But disrespecting the art that created most of what we have here today is not good . Its the artist that is the problem not the art
It's not just pressure testing, It lacks actual reality. It's a fucking joke and scam. These so called sifu's have been preying on their own people for decades and decades having them pay so much money to be part of a school so they can learn nonsense.
@@easterbuny2226 That's just patently false. Its akin to saying you have to positively respect the Confederacy or Nazis because they contributed to world history and warfare while containing repugnant ideologies. Many martial arts, to include variations of Kung Fu, contain immense amount of dogshit fluff and unnecessary crap. The sad part about this reality, is you clearly miss that it was one of Bruce Lee's major contentions with classical martial arts. Too much unnecessary bullshit. When you distill "martial arts" down to being effective, you are literally left with the core combat arts in MMA and combat sports today. Put a "Kung Fu Master" in the cage with a MMA practitioner, and just the ability to understand being hit and hitting back is a huge gap between the two in the MMA fighters enormous favor. Your "no true master!" position is worthless. Bring all the crane, monkey, and tiger shit to the cage and you can contemplate them while you pass out while being back mounted with a rear naked choke, or eat a lightning straight to the jaw, hook to the temple, or cant stand because the Muay Thai fighter literally fatigued and bruised your thighs and shins into not being able to fucking stand anymore. As fighting arts, "classical king fu" does not "deserve respect". It deserves ire for not evolving and pushing itself into actual combat efficacy like other martial arts actively have.
This video says the kung fu masters that got beaten up are frauds and not representative of kung fu. But it doesn't address how "real" kung fu masters will fare against MMA. In general, if one does not evolve against the competition, then one will lose. It's as simple as this.
There is real deadly Kung fu out there , I have seen it . But its not something you can find easily . There are a lot of frauds out there its true . Most martial arts are so watered down through comercialization
I've recommended this as a watch for several of my colleagues. Just a sad state of affairs. I did most of my Chinese training in Taiwan even though my original intent was to study on the mainland. In retrospect I think it was the right decision.
@WhyAmIWearing ARedShirt - Indeed. To add, it's also a way of life, philosophical and ultimately attributed to war and cultural history. However, that's neither here, nor there. It being the aforementioned isn't that point. It's about the "use of". The application of said art / science [i.e. physical, mental, spiritual, business, etc] throughout one's endeavors. Learning any martially oriented system is worthless in combat, if one does not wield a "fighters spirit". Without it, or legit combat experience. One's intended use of, will fail pitifully, as shown.
@@diablorojo3887 - The Golden Age of martial arts. I sincerely miss it as well. There are too many martial arts students today, that are without the proper training of how to actually defend themselves. Serious application is hardly taught in modern martial systems now. It pains my heart and soul to the core. They must be taught how to properly apply their teaching to formulate the ultimate defense.
Not quite. CCP values power over as many people as possible in order to enrich themselves. They will use any means necessary to gain and hold power. They're an evil, insidious political cult.
I think what MMA has proven (and what Bruce Lee tried to explain to the world many years ago) is that the outcome of a fight is not determined by the fighter's style, but by the approach the fighter takes to combat. You can use kung fu (or gong fu, or gung fu) in a fast, effective, and practical manner...or you can use it an artistic and impractical way...or you can use it to "win" in a competitive environment. You have to adapt (again, like "water", as Lee famously said) and understand when it's important to strike quickly, abandon certain maneuvers, switch from striking to grappling, etc. A strident "crane style guy" who's obsessed with moving slowly and gracefully is not gonna stand a chance against a ferocious kickboxer, unless he adapts to the speed and aggression of his opponent.
Warning, Weeb Comment from me XD: And that is why Batman is actually a well crafted realistic superhero. If you look at certain coreography associated with movies like the Dark Knight or Animated fight sequences, Batman utilizes a variety of combined techniques, combining jujutsu with mma boxing etc. etc. If you watch Batman vs Shredder from a recent crossover animation, when he fights the Shredder, he initially starts to lose using asian techniques before switching it up with ordinary boxing and then decimating Shredder.
@@mikotomisaka8714my view is that you should train boxing for boxing, muay thai for powerful kicks and jiu jitsu for grappling. Jiujitsu always win if the guy doesn't know how to counter it and if the fight goes to the floor. Boxing is very effective at close range and good leg kicks can win a fight over time. Mix it up smartly and you will be able to fight very well
@@Max-fw3qy indeed, hence why I dig Batman more than the run of the mill Kung Fu hero like Shang Chi. It feels more realistic to me and more plausible and draws me into the fictional world more.
@fz maybe, recent discovery in Mount Padang Sites (java), the carbon date show the sites more than 10.000 years old, that older than Egypt's Piramid. But who knows? Btw what the f*** civilization do with fighting capabilities?
Look at Mike Tyson’s video announcing his return to boxing. Look at how he spars now in his 50’s. THAT’S what a grand master of a fighting style should be. When one of these kung fu “masters” does a demonstration, I think “Ohh, pretty looking, but probably useless.” When old man Mike Tyson shadow boxes and spars, I think, “Oh. That man could kill me with his bare hands in a real fight.”
Mike Tyson and William Cheung (student of Ip Man) are very close friends. BOTH of their names are on the Wing Chun Monument on display at the Shaolin Temple.
This is what Bruce Lee was saying 40 years ago. Bruce Lee did not promote the "Traditional" KungFu. In fact, he said it is weak, wasteful, ineffective and useless in real fight. He mixed up Judo, Karate, TaeKwonDo, Aikido and Jujitsu, rebranded his "Jeet Kun Do"
You forgot it’s mostly Wing Chun mixed with other style cause Wing Chun was create by a woman to fight against men, for the weak to stand against the strong. Most Asian physical strength are weak when compared to black and White men so its hard to compare our martial art to eachother.
"We are all capable of believing things which we know to be untrue, and then, when we are finally proved wrong, impudently twisting the facts so as to show that we were right. Intellectually, it is possible to carry on this process for an indefinite time: the only check on it is that sooner or later a false belief bumps up against solid reality, usually on a battlefield," - George Orwell, 1946.
Yes and agree.... To add... Everyone who thinks himself as Goliath underestimates the opponent as David... One common stone pelter can also bring down an expert martial artist.
Michael King damn now I got to prove it? I’ve seen it numerous times, I don’t keep track of when its used, have you never seen that quote floating around the comment section? If I can give a hint of where you might find them I tend to see them in martial arts videos or Mike Tyson videos
Watching this, I keep thinking about Bruce Lee's philosophy of taking what works from ANY style, no matter where it is from. It seems to me that most serious martial arts have accepted some form of Western Boxing
table has turned. British were known for their navy , what do they have left. Other than The US of those 8 countries that invaded China, who's doing better than China? From laughing stock to world power #2 in 70 years is doing a great job.
You got that wrong it should read combat sport, martial arts are just that an art form to entertain people, MMA or combat sports in general is taught to kill someone
Martial arts are combat arts. Maybe you want to distinguish typical Eastern and typical Western. There is that cultural divide based on individualism (which separates) vs. collectivism (which unites). Fear makes those two poles repulse each other instead of finding common ground. In a way China is not truly collectivist because its essence is corrupted, as also exemplified by how much they joined the West's game and thus exchanged that energy.
Dowlphwin blah blah blah. How many martial artists have found themselves on the ground looking up at an untrained dude? Lots. Martial arts have devolved into flashy non contact crap. 20 years in the military has taught me the difference between doing “forms” and actually breaking bone. I have faced idiots that thought that having a belt made them an unbeatable warrior. The ability to actually engage in violence has been removed from the training. Demonstrations are incredible when no one is fighting back or resisting.
@@Dowlphin Martial arts used to be combat arts because regimes would restrict practicing tactics of war in order to suppress populations. However, down the line the focus of martial arts strayed away from the martial aspect and only into the artistic aspect. A key indication of this is when martial artists started rejecting firearms. A true follower of martial arts embraces all forms of combat, which is why contrary to common misconception, eastern warriors like the Samurai were quick to pick up and employ firearms. Notably Oda Nobunaga. What most people don't want to recognize is that any real combat art MUST include the implementation/training of a gun, and other common weapons like knives. Without that, it is just a combat sport, you aren't training. The only way you are going to get that as a civilian is if you live in a free country like the USA and some European countries, or if you have prior military/LE service.

There is a huge difference fighting street fight, MMA, chinese martial art, and entertainment fighting. Majority of people everywhere are hooked to entertainment fighting shown in movies and actually believe those styles are used in real fighting. Even the great Bruce Lee went against his teacher for this, real fighting is not limited by fighting styles or governing rules.
@@Skippy-id9yt idk if that's fully true the only mma guy to really pratice wing Chung is tony ferguson he uses it amazingly, but then again hes the exception
In my experience in martial arts it's largely about the artist and school, rarely about the art itself. All the best martial artists I've ever met have the same common traits as the best scientists I've met: humility from a place of Socratic ignorance paired with curiosity that brings a desire to test and learn. Every time I see a martial artist lacking those traits I know I'm seeing the pride before the fall. The key to martial arts is simple: stay humble, stay curious, never stop testing and learning. These guys getting their asses kicked have for whatever reason failed that key completely.
Chinese people are not humble people. Even their monks and all those spiritual Chinese folks I think it's just a facade a lot of times. Most Chinese people i think are either too busy trying to survive, or if they're out of survival mode they're in greed mode. Humbleness is nowhere in the picture for many of them.

Kung Fu isn't a way of fighting, it's a way of defense. MMA is a full contact regulated sport, in sports, there's nothing but strikes & contact. Full advantage if it's a sport, lethality is never displayed amongst masters who knows how to wield its life.

Well its a half truth but yes. The problem is that in some matarial arts like kungfu tiger style (in the real one) they literally teach you how to grab someones throath crush it and take the insides out with your bare hand grip steength and fingers within 1 sec.
Someone who practiced this technique wil obviously not use it in the ring but then he looses like 10 year of practice from is arsenal.
Also mma is "not real" in the sense that you cant do anything too dangerous with your oponent. So you cant just kick him in the nuts.

(Taiwanese voice) So, there's another layer beyond the East vs West narrative. You need to understand that, in Chinese culture, filial piety is everything. When I was a kid, my dad was godlike and his dad was the god over my god. The first time I heard an American friend call his dad by his first name, I nearly fainted. Authority, in that culture, comes from age and wisdom. That's why, in Martial Art flicks, the most powerful guy is the super old dude. In the West, progress is forward looking with the new generations breaking through and improving upon the past. In Chinese culture, authority comes top-down and reaches backwards in time. That's why the MMA guy beating up the old "masters" was such a no-no. In that culture, your parents are authorities over your life; the government is big daddy. Their citizens might not be able to make public criticisms against the State, but kicking the old kung fu master's ass has all the implications which, of course, the communist party picked up right away.

Reality is bad
There is another reason that Byron didn't really discuss. During the cultural revolution when all traditional Chinese culture was black listed and attempts were made to exterminate it, many of the serious traditional Quanfa masters fled mainland China and went to HKG, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, etc. The few that remained in mainland China had to go into hiding and could not practice or teach their martial art publicly. This resulted in a whole generation gap in the passing down of traditional technique. Even when the government finally decided suppressing Chinese martial arts was a bad idea and tried to restore it, they banned SanDa competitions. They didn't want “comrades fighting comrades”. Also, masters who had remained in hiding during the cultural revolution were few and far between, and some had not practiced much or any during the prohibition, because getting caught by the red guard meant punishment or death. You can forget a lot and lose a lot of skill in fifteen or more years of not training. When the government in Beijing decided to create a contemporary Chinese “martial art” they focused on performance rather than combat. They took their interpretation of traditional quanfa techniques and combined them with gymnastics/acrobatics and Peking Opera to create contemporary Wushu and standardized Taiji Quan forms for performance and sports competition. While many people who practice these are amazing athletes, most of them have never thought about actual fighting application or practiced realistic sparring. Practicing forms alone or even two person “fighting forms” is not adequate training or preparation for a fight where another trained person is really trying to punch, kick, strike, lock and throw you as hard as they can. As Bruce Lee said, it is like trying to learn to swim on dry land. So many of these so called “masters” that Xu XiaoDong knocked out had never been in a sparring match, practice or otherwise in their lives. They had deluded themselves into thinking practicing their techniques and forms in the air was enough. There are still a few traditional martial artists in China who train in the old way, who know how to apply their technique, but they are few and far between.
Thanks mate, very informative

*Bruce Lee* said it best when he said that he threw out what didn't work and kept what did.
*MMA* is just that, coupled with other disciplines *not* found in Kung Fu.
Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do was the first mixed martial art. He invented this after studying and sparing with many different martial arts stylists. Bruce chose the most combat effective techniques and combined them together. He was only interested in combat effectives! He realised that Kata i.e. forms/patterns etc are useless for a real street fight or on the battlefield! Western boxing, Muay Thai (Thai kick boxing), Krav Magga and Russian System do not have any kata. They do lots of full contact free sparring. They learn to take hits i.e. full contact kicks and punches. Their training is really tough but realistic!
Well said Douglas. Well Said.
Okay but as Bruce Lee also stated
Combat as it is should be taken like a dance between you and your opponent but a very serious dance.
"If your talking about "Sport " that's one thing but if your talking about Combat then baby you better kill me before I get to you "
Bruce Lee SAID he threw out what didn't work, but it was, like, his opinion, man. MMA tournaments proved what does and does not work by people getting their heads smashed in or not. PLOT TWIST: what REALLY works is all the stuff the MMA tournaments prohibit. UFC was early days famous for "no rules" (even then not really) but that changed quite quickly. Look up UFC prohibited moves... it's a gold mine for personal defence training
Also, Bruce understood you had to spar and fight in order to improve in your art.
Making fraudulent claims is one thing. Actually believing your own fraudulent claims is a whole different level.
Yes. It's the self-delusion and lack of self-awareness that is most dangerous.

Sadly, such nonsense isn't unique to the Chinese "martial artists". Akido is just as phony. The fraud has gotten so bad, people teach it like it's real. Similar matches have been made between "Akido Master" and Judo, for example. Needless to say, the Judo practitioner tossed the man around like a doll.

Some martial arts are traditional, but it never hurts to try and evolve them into combat/ competitive/ street fighting. As Bruce Lee said, "Rehearsed routines lack the flexibility to adapt." One should try to be creative, practice with experienced fighters/practitioners, and adapt a style that fits with the situation.
That could be, though this comment kinda misses the point of the problem addressed in this video. The guy who got beat wasn't a traditional martial artist or any type of professional martial artist whatsoever. He was a fraud.
@@divagaciones1628 Fair enough ^.^
as useful certain techniques may be it's always more important to train the foundations before the techniques. You could have memorized as many techniques in the entire world and you would still end up having your ass beaten by a guy who mastered his footwork, stamina, and strength instead of technique.
True but Bruce Lee was also unconventional in his belief that there's a lot in eastern martial arts that gets in the way of just beating the shit out of people.
You get two nations of 100 million each. Give them a fighting sport to develop with fixed rules to develop in seclusion. They will have almost exactly the same technique. Biologists call this convergent evolution.
I watched "fight commentary breakdowns" throughout the pandemic, which is basically a Chinese American dude narrating traditional Chinese martial artists getting beaten down by MMA practitioners. One notable thing was the 1930s to 1940s videos on the channel. This included French Sanshou practitioners going at it, long term US army types fighting with boxing and wrestling techniques, Chinese nationalists practicing dao fencing, and someone trying a jian form that his grandfather had taught him in his basement. The notable thing was that the dao fencers used very similar techniques to western saber fencers, while the basement Jian dude's techniques were not applicable to anything.
There are two interpretations that I'm split between:
1. Actual Chinese killing arts, as practiced by the nationalists, actually don't look much different than Western Martial arts. The communists chose to emphasize theater arts instead.
2. Chinese martial arts were actually destroyed by the Manchu, leaving only stage arts. The Nationalists were actually just implementing Prussian training with Chinese weapons.
I spent time training in what was considered a "hard core" traditional martial arts school in China. There was a lot of tough training going on there and some of those people had developed some serious talents but it all came across as more artistic than combat related. It was great for show and intimidation but for fighting against well trained, combat-oriented people who were not going to lose their focus, it wasn't that useful.
I just opened 20 of these type of videos and 5 from this channel.
I did not see any of these type recommended to me on my home page.
What is this?
It's called Martial _Arts_ for a reason.
@midgetydeath Like the art of War,
The answer to the question is simple. They're getting beat up because they don't really know how to fight.
Technically, they don't train for COMBAT anymore, it's health and show instead.
@@killaken2000 I agree with your statement with very few select Chinese martial arts, but the remainder, I'd say the problem is that there are a lot of 'masters' who fool others into thinking that they are a 'master'. What is the criteria to be a master? Easy! You just call yourself one! You can do it right now! One of those frauds in the video knows 'Thunder Style Tai Chi' which is not a thing! The problem is that people are criticizing these 'masters' as if they are actual representatives of the styles, but I think that's giving the frauds way too much respect. Before even criticizing the training, people should criticize that these 'masters' don't even know the art to being with.
I thought when someone fights, it’s to kill not to “show” or be flamboyant.
killaken2000 that kind of politeness doesn’t exist on the battlefield unless that battlefield is only filled with SJWs
@@DylanBegazo You are correct that in fighting, aesthetics do not matter and funtionality should be prioritized. However, there are many practitioners who intentionally practices Chinese Martial Arts for performances. You may often see videos of people wearing silky attire (designed to make you look more fluid) with Chinese music in the background, performing a form. This is not a mistake of their part; some simply do not practice for fighting but for performances.
Bruce was so ahead of his time, he actually called these kung Kung fu systems/performances "the classical mess".
Many Real Chinese kung fu was eliminated and was forbidden to practice during the cultural revolution.
I was wondering about the revolution with religions being banned.
Sorry to break it to you, but Lee was a fraud.
@刘双 you are so right he is an actor but surly he 1000% better then today chinese young actor any day!
@peter yeung you are right about Bruce lee, people in China says Bruce lee is fake!!!
That's the core of the problem. Many meditations like qi gong or martial arts got destroyed at that time. What's left of it are just stories.
I think there are important elements to Kung Fu for a philosophical, meditative, modest, and simple life. Sadly it seems that Chinese society today reflects none of the values of Kung Fu.
about philosophy the philosophy of kung fu is disputable
These trash-talk on this page I doubt that they understand that aspect of Kung-Fu… all the only they understand about Kung-Fu is just the combat aspect!
@@TheGoldenWildcat are you responding to him or me and i like philosophy ive always been interested in it tell me a bit more if you so please
Exactly, people really don't understand the term of "art" in martial arts. More than a combat system, they focus a lot on the mental , spiritual and artistic sides.
mArtial Arts is twice as artful as just Art.
-kung fu master
A (Maori) friend of mine was taught Aikido from the age of 7. His dad, ex-forces, didn't want a thug son. And until the age of 14 he was smashed to bits by school thugs. So his dad relented and took him to Muay Thai and within 2 years he was a beast. BUT all the training and theory from his Aikido did come into play once he got his "brawling" skills up. But he needed to learn how to take punches, take kicks, take pain, and by physical in attacks, before the theory could be put into practice. There is nothing wrong with a lot of martial arts, but as Mike Tyson said "everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face". So IMO cross-training is where it is at. Whatever fancy style you train in, be it Kung Fu or Karate, be it Judo or BJJ, be it any weapon style, be it hard or soft... add some tough-gym kickboxing too. Get used to throwing a punch and taking a punch.
Tyson actually said Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the nose.
Well Tyson got smashed by a bouncer at a pub. Just like that other Boxing Heavy weight champion who talked his way into the UFC fight and got mauled in the first round with out even swinging a punch. The guy who fought him actually punched him several times before choking him out.
Aikido is a joke
Traditional Martial Arts has become redundant completely. Only through full contact training especially boxing one can learn how to deal with the shock and awe of consistent attacks...
@@Jealod24usually yeah but schools more willing to spar can be descent

@Jimmy Strudel They should train the boards and bricks to fight back.
THAT'S WHY BOXING IS THE MOST DANGEROUS & PROBABLY BE BANNED.
SO LEARN BOXING & WRESTLING
Once a wise chinese man said "if a man is not humble, he will be knocked the f*** out!"
Even Bruce Lee learned when he came to the west, that even someone with a rudimentary understanding of grappling can take down an advanced striker. And he started to incorporate it into his training. I don't mean to knock Wushu but grappling, catch-can wrestling, even greco roman are just more practical to use in a combat situation. It doesn't hurt that wrestlers tend to be few well conditioned athletes that can grapple for an hour.
He realized the limitations of Wing Chun and studied fencing, western boxing, grappling, silat, FMA, and more. However concepts from Wing Chun did not completely disappear in his approach. Trapping in boxing was an example - you can see this in fighters like lomachenko
I remember the advice of more than one fighter, “Any serious fight quickly turns into grappling.”
Once you hit a grappler hard enough in the face, their strength will quickly drain away. You just have to be bolder... there's nothing really bold about using grappling skills to take someone down and hold him. But to smash someone's face in as hard as you can... that's bold, and if you do it early, the wrestler has no chance.
@@TeslaRules1856 in boxing, we call trapping "Framing".

@NanuNanu81 Martial arts only allows you to combat someone who also uses that same martial art. A kung fu fighter has nothing to combat say, a boxer for example. Or just a proper MMA fighter.
If you want to win a fight, not a competition, read the MMA rule book, Learn everything they have banned, and do those things. It's unlikely an MMA fighter will throw a punch in a bus queue, bar, or just the street.
@@KillerBill1953 Just because they are banned doesn't mean that an MMA fighter wouldn't know how to use it. Many still train headbutts, know how to slam you on your head, will kick you in the genitals or stomp on your head while your down.

They're just going with what is working, rather than playing make-believe to appease a few idiots.

It doesn't matter; the techniques themselves are simply bunk exactly because they're NOT designed to work in real life i.e. self defense.
The only way i.e. Aikido works is when you have compliant and oftenly one armed opponents. You know what I'm talking about.

Nachtrevi 82 many traditional martial arts have good fundamentals. Many just aren’t made for all out brawls with little to no rules
I just recently learned of the concept of "junk science" in the field of Forensics. This concept also applies very strongly to the traditional martial arts. Pure traditional martial artists commonly try to rationalize how they would beat an MMA fighter "if it was a real fight" based on hypothetical arguments. Effectively, traditional martial artists use a form of "junk science" to argue the merit of their worthless styles that are not pressure-tested and are unproven.
most people who practice martial arts are not been used to been hit in tne face so when it happens sends a shock to there system
I remember my mother wanting to send me to the Tae Kwon Do shop around the corner because my cousins used to go there and I used to get into fights with Bullies all the damn time. Being in the hood, you can expect this when tough guys are hyped up in the community. So, I denied and wouldn't go to any Karate or TKD club, I would have done boxing or Grappling type martial arts. Capoeria and other arts are beautiful, but I did my research as little as it was at the time and came to the conclusion that if somebody was a legit street fighter or larger than me and liked to grab, got a hold of me I probably wouldn't win that fight with choreography. Needless to say, I never joined a club, and this kid who knew karate in my school was being hyped up by some kids, he acted like he wanted to fight me, but he wouldn't even come down the stairs to back his talk up. At that point, I was like most of these teachers/forms are frauds.
Watch Ganryujima (as an example) and you can see, that many TMAs don`t have a problem with it and could be able to make good MMA matches. Xu Xiadong wouldn`t be that arrogant anymore if he would fight such one TMAs and not those "masters", who surely haven' t really fought for years (if not decades) or those fake fighters.

That's such an idiotic quote and people, who have no clue about martial arts, keep posting it everywhere. Having a plan, prepairing, studying your opponent is crucial and becomes more important the more competitive it gets.
You can prepair for getting punched in the face by being punched in the face.
I had the unbelievable luck of being able to study Tai Chi with a real Chinese Grandmaster, I mean a real Grandmaster. His body was like steal. One time he said "here hold my arm", which seemed a bit strange but he held out his arm and I put my hand under it, as he relaxed and dropped the full weight of his arm into my hand I almost lurched forward - his arm was so heavy it was shocking! I was not expecting it.
Of course he knew what I was going to experience. He had often said Tai Chi makes your bones heavier. And he proved it that day. He was almost 80 years old and had been doing standing exercises probably a couple hours a day for many many years. That has the same effect as weight bearing exercises which science now knows increases bone density. Based on how heavy his arm was his bone density must have been through the roof. He did not have big bulky muscles at all, he looked like a little old Chinese guy. People ask or say "maybe he was pushing down", no he was not, you can tell if someone is doing that. At that time I had been doing some Kung Fu, Tai Chi, and studying Shiatsu and Chinese Medicine. I knew about what the average weight of a person's arm was. This was way way beyond that - shocking isn't a strong enough word for what it felt like.
But that is the secret to accumulating Chi, it's in the bones not the muscles. And his bones were like iron! I think it would be hard to hurt him. I knew 2 black belts who went to see him. He told them to kick and punch him as hard as they could, they did, he just stood there laughing. His name was John Chung Li if you care to look him up. There was a Vimeo video of him doing his form with was a combination of styles, Tai Chi and Li hua ba fa, I'm sure I am not spelling it right! :)
I am a licensed MMA ref and judge for a great many years and for some relatively big names and events. Other than random (as needed) individual state licenses, I am licensed by the largest MMA organization in all 50 states for life (goodness that sounds like a lie ha ha). I've reffed an uncountable amount of fighters over the years as well as trained in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, wrestling, judo, kick-boxing, Muah Thai, etc from a list of professionally accomplished fighters and we produced a UFC champion (Rampage). I've reffed precious few guys with a kung Fu base, and for good reason...it's simply impractical. I can't possibly count how many little nerdy morons will swear by some old guy somewhere who doesn't compete professionally as though he's some magical mystic who started his training in Hogwarts. I enjoy kung fu in various forms as it is fun to watch. There is nothing I would rather see in movies. Wushu in particular is often used because of its flamboyancy (much of it was incorporated into Darth Maul for example). It's also an incredibly ineffective martial art. As far as actual fighting goes, the overwhelming majority of things taught in Kung-Fu are utterly ridiculous. With a great many of them, you would be equally suited with a black belt in tap dancing. Even Bruce Lee was highly critical of many forms of kung fu that look fantastic but are just awful. Boxing is called the sweet science for a reason. There are angles. There is weight distribution. A particular stance is given for reasons. And keep your chin down. Look at many of these Kung Fu stances. Look at the dramatic ways many of them attempt to strike. Or how much power or timing is sometimes lost by keeping within a particular style. I'm not saying there is nothing good in one form of kung fu or another. Karate, which of course is not a type of kung fu, is at least effective in being evasive, but I'd be hard-pressed to find anyting else that's good in it. Taekwondo has good high kicks. I mean we can talk forever. But a good form of kickboxing or Muay Thai is significantly more scientific and they have a proven track record. Once mixed martial arts became mainstream and spread across the globe, all of this Kung-Fu nonsense was exposed. Yes I know there are so many people that would tell me how wrong I am. I would ask them to show me one highly effective professional fighter who sticks solely to his Kung Fu and doesn't incorporate jiu-Jitsu or another form of striking or this or that. It just simply doesn't exist. It doesn't. And I've heard every excuse under the sun as to why this person or that person is best but doesn't compete for (insert random cop-out reasoning here). I personally really love watching a good kung fu movie. As a little kid in the 80s, me and one of my brothers watched Kung Fu theater every day. I love that stuff. I don't want to see effective martial arts in those kinds of movies because it's not nearly as fun to watch. Donnie Yen did one movie in particular where they used actual effective martial arts. He said he always wanted to do it. I watched it and I enjoyed it but not nearly as much as watching him do his typical over-the-top stuff. I've even known a couple of proper mixed martial artists who wanted to learn some form of crazy Kung Fu just for the sheer fun of it. And that's cool. But this whole Kung Fu thing has been the biggest farce. As an actual fighting style, its an absolute joke. It cant be overstated. Its childish nonsense. Anyone can say anything, but the proof is in the pudding isn't it. For sure they tried. And we're promptly embarrassed because they were fighting like an idiot. There is a science to fighting. That science is not a respecter of culture or desire, or an active imagination. Having said that...ok youtube...come at me nerds! :P
I second that. Did Krav Maga. Where there is one single goal: „neutralize“ your opponents (and get out alive). Not much culture, not much tradition. No nonsense. Just what works the most effective under any circumstances.

Thank you for this video! I grew up in China and love my culture. The part that really pisses me off is that this whole fake Kung Fu stuff to promote culture and nationalism is so unnecessary. Kung Fu is cool and great to begin with, there is no need to add all that fluff. For those that don't know, all of those things mentioned here and more, including that stuff about the guy with the pigeon unable to fly from his hand, comes from a class of Chinese fiction literature called WuXia, which mystifies Kung Fu. I happen to be a huge fan of those literature and it has a very big following in China. Most people are smart enough to recognize the story and Kung Fu tricks from the novels to be just that, fiction. Unfortunately we do have people that genuinely believe in the ability of a Kung Fu master to fly, or to knock down 20 huge men with a single punch. Plus there are also those who will try to benefit from the ignorance of others, thereby selling "traditional Chinese Medicine" or "miracle treatments", which, just like this Kung Fu thing, takes away from the credibility of the real Chinese Medicine. In my opinion, all of these actually stems from the fact that China has been the target of many foreign domination and invasions for about a century, starting in the later half of the 18th century and our national self esteem has really taken a hit. These gimmicks are just our government trying to overcompensate. It's sad because I know for a fact that the Chinese culture that I grew up to love and treasure is more than enough to impress anyone, had we just promote them for what they really are.

Too much unnecessary bullshit.
When you distill "martial arts" down to being effective, you are literally left with the core combat arts in MMA and combat sports today.

It deserves ire for not evolving and pushing itself into actual combat efficacy like other martial arts actively have.

I've recommended this as a watch for several of my colleagues. Just a sad state of affairs. I did most of my Chinese training in Taiwan even though my original intent was to study on the mainland. In retrospect I think it was the right decision.
- You have "martial arts practitioners", and then you have "martial arts fighters".
There's a particular difference.
I miss the time were "if you don't fight, you don't practice martial arts"
@WhyAmIWearing ARedShirt - Indeed. To add, it's also a way of life, philosophical and ultimately attributed to war and cultural history. However, that's neither here, nor there. It being the aforementioned isn't that point. It's about the "use of". The application of said art / science [i.e. physical, mental, spiritual, business, etc] throughout one's endeavors. Learning any martially oriented system is worthless in combat, if one does not wield a "fighters spirit". Without it, or legit combat experience. One's intended use of, will fail pitifully, as shown.
@@diablorojo3887 - The Golden Age of martial arts. I sincerely miss it as well. There are too many martial arts students today, that are without the proper training of how to actually defend themselves. Serious application is hardly taught in modern martial systems now. It pains my heart and soul to the core. They must be taught how to properly apply their teaching to formulate the ultimate defense.
@Raider Dave Sure, but which one would you prefer to practice with?

Chinese tofu martial arts.
I think what MMA has proven (and what Bruce Lee tried to explain to the world many years ago) is that the outcome of a fight is not determined by the fighter's style, but by the approach the fighter takes to combat. You can use kung fu (or gong fu, or gung fu) in a fast, effective, and practical manner...or you can use it an artistic and impractical way...or you can use it to "win" in a competitive environment. You have to adapt (again, like "water", as Lee famously said) and understand when it's important to strike quickly, abandon certain maneuvers, switch from striking to grappling, etc. A strident "crane style guy" who's obsessed with moving slowly and gracefully is not gonna stand a chance against a ferocious kickboxer, unless he adapts to the speed and aggression of his opponent.
Warning, Weeb Comment from me XD: And that is why Batman is actually a well crafted realistic superhero. If you look at certain coreography associated with movies like the Dark Knight or Animated fight sequences, Batman utilizes a variety of combined techniques, combining jujutsu with mma boxing etc. etc. If you watch Batman vs Shredder from a recent crossover animation, when he fights the Shredder, he initially starts to lose using asian techniques before switching it up with ordinary boxing and then decimating Shredder.
@@mikotomisaka8714my view is that you should train boxing for boxing, muay thai for powerful kicks and jiu jitsu for grappling. Jiujitsu always win if the guy doesn't know how to counter it and if the fight goes to the floor. Boxing is very effective at close range and good leg kicks can win a fight over time. Mix it up smartly and you will be able to fight very well
@@Max-fw3qy indeed, hence why I dig Batman more than the run of the mill Kung Fu hero like Shang Chi. It feels more realistic to me and more plausible and draws me into the fictional world more.

Look at Mike Tyson’s video announcing his return to boxing. Look at how he spars now in his 50’s. THAT’S what a grand master of a fighting style should be.
When one of these kung fu “masters” does a demonstration, I think “Ohh, pretty looking, but probably useless.” When old man Mike Tyson shadow boxes and spars, I think, “Oh. That man could kill me with his bare hands in a real fight.”

This is what Bruce Lee was saying 40 years ago. Bruce Lee did not promote the "Traditional" KungFu. In fact, he said it is weak, wasteful, ineffective and useless in real fight.
He mixed up Judo, Karate, TaeKwonDo, Aikido and Jujitsu, rebranded his "Jeet Kun Do"

@@kimisadventure96 lol prove it
@@kimisadventure96 Bbbrrrawwaahahahahaha did you get your 50 cents?
You forgot it’s mostly Wing Chun mixed with other style cause Wing Chun was create by a woman to fight against men, for the weak to stand against the strong. Most Asian physical strength are weak when compared to black and White men so its hard to compare our martial art to eachother.
"We are all capable of believing things which we know to be untrue, and then, when we are finally proved wrong, impudently twisting the facts so as to show that we were right. Intellectually, it is possible to carry on this process for an indefinite time: the only check on it is that sooner or later a false belief bumps up against solid reality, usually on a battlefield," - George Orwell, 1946.

Watching this, I keep thinking about Bruce Lee's philosophy of taking what works from ANY style, no matter where it is from. It seems to me that most serious martial arts have accepted some form of Western Boxing
Kung Fu is so good. Couldn't stop the Manchu's, Mongols and British empire though.

Martial arts are done “with” someone. Combat arts are done “to” someone.
You got that wrong it should read combat sport, martial arts are just that an art form to entertain people, MMA or combat sports in general is taught to kill someone
a martial art isn't really martial at all if it isn't about combat
Martial arts are combat arts. Maybe you want to distinguish typical Eastern and typical Western. There is that cultural divide based on individualism (which separates) vs. collectivism (which unites). Fear makes those two poles repulse each other instead of finding common ground. In a way China is not truly collectivist because its essence is corrupted, as also exemplified by how much they joined the West's game and thus exchanged that energy.
Dowlphwin blah blah blah. How many martial artists have found themselves on the ground looking up at an untrained dude? Lots. Martial arts have devolved into flashy non contact crap. 20 years in the military has taught me the difference between doing “forms” and actually breaking bone. I have faced idiots that thought that having a belt made them an unbeatable warrior. The ability to actually engage in violence has been removed from the training. Demonstrations are incredible when no one is fighting back or resisting.
@@Dowlphin Martial arts used to be combat arts because regimes would restrict practicing tactics of war in order to suppress populations. However, down the line the focus of martial arts strayed away from the martial aspect and only into the artistic aspect. A key indication of this is when martial artists started rejecting firearms. A true follower of martial arts embraces all forms of combat, which is why contrary to common misconception, eastern warriors like the Samurai were quick to pick up and employ firearms. Notably Oda Nobunaga.
What most people don't want to recognize is that any real combat art MUST include the implementation/training of a gun, and other common weapons like knives. Without that, it is just a combat sport, you aren't training. The only way you are going to get that as a civilian is if you live in a free country like the USA and some European countries, or if you have prior military/LE service.
Eastern martial arts: we elegant be respectful
Western martial arts: crush your enemies see them driven before you

There is a huge difference fighting street fight, MMA, chinese martial art, and entertainment fighting. Majority of people everywhere are hooked to entertainment fighting shown in movies and actually believe those styles are used in real fighting.
Even the great Bruce Lee went against his teacher for this, real fighting is not limited by fighting styles or governing rules.

In my experience in martial arts it's largely about the artist and school, rarely about the art itself. All the best martial artists I've ever met have the same common traits as the best scientists I've met: humility from a place of Socratic ignorance paired with curiosity that brings a desire to test and learn. Every time I see a martial artist lacking those traits I know I'm seeing the pride before the fall.
The key to martial arts is simple: stay humble, stay curious, never stop testing and learning. These guys getting their asses kicked have for whatever reason failed that key completely.
Martial arts arn't created equal and idk why people pretend like they are... Naturally, some are more practical and effective than others
@@valp2375 Exactly. Some are more focused on the "martial", and others are more "art" lol
Chinese people are not humble people. Even their monks and all those spiritual Chinese folks I think it's just a facade a lot of times. Most Chinese people i think are either too busy trying to survive, or if they're out of survival mode they're in greed mode. Humbleness is nowhere in the picture for many of them.

There is a saying from several traditions: "Those who speak do not know, and those who know do not speak. (or at least speak quietly)" Seems to apply to the self-proclaimed experts. I loved Byron's comments. He reminds me of my instructor many years ago. Thanks for putting this together.
Jackie Chan said that in a movie once to.
Heh. This reminds me of the "Dunning-Kruger effect",
which essentially means that people who are ignorant about a subject, or incompetent at a certain skill,
tend to overestimate themselves; since they don't know all the stuff they don't know about,
while people who are skilled/educated in something, tend to underestimate themselves, and/or overestimate others.
