Well said. If it puts the guy down it works. Don'y need to be a balerina. And Tenchu, you don't know jack, because aikido is all about power and weight distribution and nothing else. More so than any other art.

Krav Maga is overrated. I'm sorry it's good for some things but it's a very limited style.

Wrong. Energy flow is a way for inbreds and romantic people to say "body mechanics." Aikido is all about weight transfer and nothing else. I taught it. You suck.

Everyone knows, the chances of surviving a street fight for longer than 10 seconds without getting hit is very slim. I would not drag out on the street.
I'd have to agree with you on that.

Krav Maga has taken moves from many differant martial arts.. Strikes and block from Muay thai and karate throws from judo and dissarms and grappling fro jiu-jitsu

so i think its funny that you say the strikes are weak when they are Muay Thai and Karate strikes... also taking into account the strikes they took were the strikes designed to do the most damage..

KM prepares you for REAL types of conflicts - so i dont know how you can say that youd just knee im in the chest, strike him in the jaw.. there trained to not let you do that.. and they dont just train on the assumption that theres only going to be 1 opponent, you train by following ring rules and hoping that your opponent isnt going to hurt you - people that do KM train by thinking that you opponent is going to kill you, thats why you learn things like eye gouges, knees to groins and kicks to the face while your opponent is down.. because there is no rules

Krav maga is trained 4 hours a day minimum everyday - they must do this for 6 months before they are allowed into real combat, this routine doesnt stop tho unless of course there in battle... by calling these guys part time practitioners is showing YOUR lack of knowledge not mine... (real soldiers do more stuff with it like "specialised anti terrorist training") i dont know what that is.... i only do normal KM 2 - 4 times a week, and am thinking about taking Kyokushin up again

as for street fighting "Everyone knows, the chances of surviving a street fight for longer than 10 seconds without getting hit is very slim. I would not drag out on the street." wtf.... thats what KM is designed for and your saying it would be no good .. your retarded

krav maga "is a real world killing art" to say that that some muay thai wannabe is gona come take down someone sufficient in KM is just stupid - your just a fanboy that doesnt listen to facts and whores himself out to muay thai because your ignorant and one minded

stop talking if you dont know anything about KM

I won't talk shit about KM, as far as I understand it it's designed to _work_, and not taught according to some old doctrine. I have respect for that.

Ofcourse a good kung-fu guy could woop your ass. But do kung-fu teachers revise the system constantly? Do they say "hey, this kick would not work in e.g. a bar, lets redesign it"? If they do, I've never heard of it.

Oh and well, if you bash Muay thai... Seriously go watch some real title matches from Thailand, and then say you could stand off to one of those guys in any setting.

Arguing about Martial Arts vs soldiers is as funny as it is pointless. A soldier will be trained to use his weapons and kill, in any way he can. And well, if a modern soldier doesn't have his weapons, then he's handicapped.

Oh and yeah, please remember people that the reason that most people actually train martial arts long-term isn't to be able to destroy drunk guys in the local pub. Instead most people do it to learn to control their body and for the exercise ofc.


なんでやねん!

Yeah, I think most of us have agreed to that. And of course it's the person, not the art. Mostly, were argueing Tenchus foolish ideas ..and other proclivities he's thrown out there. Some of us just aren't even answering him.

Really, a really tough SOB wlth no training can waste a martial arts guy if he's not squared away.

look.. id agree to most of that but not all of it.. but thats ok.. as for "Oh and well, if you bash Muay thai... Seriously go watch some real title matches from Thailand, and then say you could stand off to one of those guys in any setting." its not about me its about 2 people being sufficient and who would come out on top - and i wasnt the 1 knocking anyones MA till people started Knocking KM - i learn it so id like to stand up for what i study

Krav Maga meaning "Contact Fighting" doesnt revolve around weaponry but you are trained to use one if you have 1 or can atleast get ur hands on something that can be used as a weapon.. but as for being handicapped i disagree

But do kung-fu teachers revise the system constantly? Do they say "hey, this kick would not work in e.g. a bar, lets redesign it"? If they do, I've never heard of it. - KM is designed for places like bars.. so if we happen to get into a fight i dont see how we would be handicapped if its something that we are trained for and not the other person... thats the whole points of KM they are going top be handicapped not us.. its not designed to be used in a ring.. so to say it would suck in a ring is just dumb....
