Your kidding right? Bruce Lee was the best ever. Bar none.
 
What do you mean?
 
If you punch somebody in a very sensible place, like throat or back of the head. Is that possible that death may occur ?

If you hit anyone in the throat and they arent prepared, you could collapse their wind pipe, and cause death. Dont know of other places... maybe if you elbowed or kneed someone in the side if the head(temple).
 
Since you are such a street fighter fan.. Do you remember what kind of martial arts each one of them performed ?

S U P E R B U R N E R !!!!!!!
Foiling villians feindish plots, helping damsels in distress! (my favorite part)
and helping old ladies cross the street.

Only known weaknesses:
Great food and hot women..seem to stop our hero dead in his tracks in a stuttering, eyes-glazed over imp.

In out last episode, we saw our hero drawn into a Texan strip club with a buffet line. It seems almost hopelss! How will he ever escape? Will he want to? Tune in next week.....

Take Mui Thai then. Its Thai kickboxing. Very good fighting style for strikers.

Maui Thai and BJJ together....there is a reason most of the MMA champs of the world are Brazilian Vieope!!!!!

Instead of MT you could do a generic kickboxing, but what is important is to get good stand-up skills. On the ground BJJ or GJJ will take care of that side of it. Good old wrestling will cover take-downs if you want to go that far.
 
If I were you I would look into Jeet Kune Do...it is really more of a philosophy than a style and is what I chose to practice after years of karate and tae kwon do.

I do feel that it is the best martial art because it incorporates ALL martial arts and basically says "use what works for YOU"....I competed in numerous no holds barred competitions several years ago and did quite well with my Jeet Kune Do skills....the other martial arts didnt help so much.

Muai Thai sucks in my opinion...iut is hardcore training to make your body into a machine that can take alot of punnishment....id rather spend my time learning how to kick someone elses ass rather than kicking my own ass over and over again during training just to increase the amount of pain I can take....i love it when they stand in the corner and just kick the shit out of each other....take the man down and choke his ass!

you do want to be proficient in all ranges of fighting and Jeet Kune Do covers all of that...especially trapping range which alot of arts dont cover...use what works...not what looks pretty..that is what Jeet Kune Do is all about.
 
i like how this was a fainting thread and now it is a martial arts thread...tangents are cool.

but I thought I have read that there are a lot of 'hacks' out there that are not actual 'certified' JKD instrtuctors out there?
isn't it hard to find the real instructors?
 
yes, this is true...just do your research.

me teachers were larry hartsell (original student of bruce lee)
and eric paulson (student of larry hartsell, shootfighting champ)

if you need to find an instructor call Dan Inosanto's academy in california and see if he can refer you to a qualified instructor in your area.

lots of people go about JKD the wrong way so it is a good idea to be cautious like you said.
 
paul vunak's tapes are usually pretty good too if you want to invest in something you can watch at home...not a good idea to make them your only source of info, but they are a good supplement.

i went to a few seminars with him and he is awesome....he was the hand to hand and knife fighting instructor for the navy seals for a while...takes out alot of the BS and gives it to you straight.

I think this is the most important point.

Everyone reacts differently to different ways of training ( and with MA different teachers, which is perhaps the most important thing ).....how many different BB workouts are there? They all work to some degree, and there will be some that take ones that are generally though of as ineffective, and be exceptions to the rule.

Try out a few and see what you like. The individual is more important than the style.
 
I once had it explained to me like this by a well respected martial arts master when I asked him which art was best.

"think of mastery of a martial art as a path to the top of a mountain...once you get there, looking down, you can see all the other paths that lead to the top....they may take different routes, but they all lead to the same place."


basically he was saying...find an art you like and be the best at it that you can be...if you do that you cant go wrong.

hey...I said the same thing....
I am wise beyond my years...
:D
 
I'm thinking of joining a martial arts class.Something that helps you in a real street fight.I am 5'6 so I got a disadvantage of going up against a larger size guy.

What would you guys suggest.

I am thinking of brazilian JJ.......That is probable the best
 
brazilian JJ is GREAT in the MMA competitions...in a real streetfight it isnt so good IMO.....you dont want to be wrestling around with some dude for 10 min trying to get him in a choke while his friend cracks you in the head with a beer bottle.....a good striking/trapping art is better in that case...if it does go to the ground some BJJ skills are good to have.....this is why I think JKD is still the best in a real situation.
 
kuso...i fought in a few tournaments in a circuit known as the south eastern no holds barred association...it was formed around the time UFC III was held, so its OLD and no longer exists....back when I was into the competition arena, it wasnt as big or as organized as it is today....i wish i had time to get back into it now!

Correctamoondo! If you want to street fight, then BJJ is NOT a good choice.

But if you are much stronger than your opponent, you would have a slight advantage with him on the ground,and BJJ teaches you how to get him in a choke hold or whatever right away.So you wont have to wrestle around with him.
Most street fights,at least the ones i have seen, have ended up with the 2 guys on the ground.
But I guess if your good and fast enough you can knock him out in the first few seconds.

Any how I will look into Jet Koon Do(sp?)
