Martial Arts; the coolest thing ever right?

Post by Bluejay4 »

I'm hoping to become a kickboxer/mixed martial artist when I'm older, in fact I've already started my training. Do any of you guys practice martial arts? Jesus vs Raphael in a MMA match who would win?(please don't ban me for this)

I used too. I was a Tae Kwon Do kid as a kid growing up and I made it all the way to black belt.I was really good at it and was really into Martial Arts.I would watch just about any martial art movie too.However I did not do it to fight,I just really liked it for something I was good at.It was a sport to me I was good at.I did like to spar though but it was with pads but personally I would've never got into MMA fighting,but thats just me.I could've defended myself easily if I ever needed to though but only got into a few fights defending myself.I did'nt lose the few fights I got into defending myself.

I did judo for a while in my early/mid twenties, loved it. Started Wing Chun about six years ago, for me it is the best martial art EVER! I am lucky enough to be trained by one of the top people in the world!
I would love to see martial arts, in particular Wing Chun, taught in schools. Our daughter, who is now 10, has been doing it since she was 4 and it`s incredible watching her fight. For me, Wing Chun is the ultimate self defence. Seeing the guys that are the top of their field in this is truly awesome.

Wing Chun was popular in the 1980's. But haven't heard from them lately.

When I was in Tae Kwon Do at every testing we would pretty much always have a master Tae Kwon Do person there to put on a demonstration. When I tested for my black belt we had Jerry Trimble there and he was on the panel when I tested for my black belt and he passed me.He autographed the boards I had to break to pass.For my kick I broke my boards with a roundhouse kick and for my hand technique I used a punch.Most everybody else broke their boards with a side kick mostly and an elbow,but I chose to break my boards with tougher techniques.
He was a kickboxing champion.
Here is one of his kickboxing fights.

He later got into martial art movies,they were low budget though.

It was bound to happen.

One thing I don't get about fighters is when they pray before fighting, why would God bless either of them when he already knows who won?

For a second I thought this was the how to combat terrorism thread. Remind me to never get on your bad side Paul. :mrgreen:
