Is Cung Le, a real good fighter? is he the best in san shou? I m wondering because I never seen him fight anyone that can be consider a real competitor. I think all he's fought are tomato cans.

uh oh face2face has finally caught on to Cung Le's scam! He hasn't actually fought anyone! Even the fight with Jason Yee he used body doubles.

I'd love to see how you'd do against a "tomato can" like Scott Sheely.

My Muay Thai kry told me he is not that great. Another Muay thai kru tod me he knew some people who did Muay thai and san shou and muay thai was clearly better. My Muay thai kru has learned in thailand and from people like Matt Hume and Maurice smith, and he says Alex gong is the guy to emulate. He says it's kind of like the bob and weave boxing style; it'll only work if your name is Roy Jones of Muhammed ali, otherwise you gonna get eaten up
I don't beleive everything they say though because they say CMA will never be big in MMA like BJJ and Muay Thai

I think he is pretty good as San Shou. Certainly has the game down. If he hopes to make the jump to K1 or something of that sort he needs some more work. When he fought his K1 match he was seriously in danger of eating knees and kicks when he went down for his throws. If he were against a higher-caliber fighter, his predictability might have gotten him owned. Just my 2 cents.

My point exactly.
Josh is a very experienced accomplished san shou fighter/coach.
Scott wasn't a san shou "tomato can", Cung is just on another level. he's a world class fighter.
His only serious san shou competition will come from matches with international san shou champions. (King of Sanda etc.)

oh YAWN, did he tell you his daddy can beat up your daddy also? :rolleyes:
Quite a few San Shou people have impressive records against Muay Thai guys, even under THEIR rules.... Or look at the mixed matches between China and Thailand

No offense to the late Mr Gong, but he built a rep fighting US, never international level, fighters. He lost pretty badly to Master Toddy's guy, and should have lost to Bang. If your Kru says fight like Alex, well, I wonder what your Kru is thinking...

san shou is the 3rd most watched tv program in the world because it shown in asia. china has over 2 billion people of course its going to be the most watched show in the world. but its not showed where it counts in the US. where money is made.
alex gong should left to rest. have some respect for the dead

Muay Thai basicly has zero visability in mainstream America...
The UFC has consistently lost money if that is your criteria

:eek: I think there is something to what you say. But my trainers will just say they mostly like the japanese fights. K-1 and Pride, the japanese appreciate real fighting. They live in Canada. Also they say Duane Ludwig beat Alex Gong

ESPN or ESPN2 has shown some Cung Strikeforce matches as well as a few others but not much on that is for sure.

UFC is banned so many places though, it is tough to draw crowds when you can only do it so many places..
plus the US is getting wussified...
They're trying to take fighting out of hockey
Look at boxing, that sucks now

Err, maybe some of the guys who've been punched too much will have to play checkers.
