when you say traditional styles only does this include thai boxing and BJJ as they have been around for quite some time?

How are those BJJ/MT forms coming along?

[Ultimatewingchun]

Actually, I believe that some versions/styles of Muay Thai do have forms.

I thought so, but was told emphatically, "no" by some MT folks I know. It may have been part of the old world version of the style.

In any case you could make one up, no?

That new one they made up for VT is lame.. They should have just done the dummy form without the dummy..

oh i see so styles without forms need not apply, since some forms of southern mantis only teach roads and not forms they should not apply then, same for the bagua guys that don't do forms just single palm changes.....but anyone doing a modern wushu form can join in cool

Yes old school thai has forms, ell the traditional dance done before each fight would clasify as a form in most schools, afterall it contains the schools signature moves
and i am sure i could string enough moves together from BJJ to make up a form, afterall unless the judging pannel is made up of experts from all styles how the f*ck are they going to know if my form is real or not?

[wiz cool c]

I think it is a great idea sound really cool. Hope someone is doing some filming and post it somewhere other then youtube, so I can see it.

The fact that the ironly of this is lost on so many is a big part of the problem

PS: if I teach a pile of Muay Thai guys Heian 1 can they entire the competition? you said "shotokan" and Heian 1 is shotokan and pretty much every person on the planet can do it

LMAO i would love to see this

Perhaps he's just trying to make it where its not another MMA match? Muay Thai and BJJ are great, but he's looking for the guys who don't do things that can be classified as "sports" as well.

I guess that means Sanshou's out too.

[Ultimatewingchun]

Is this the same comps that Adrian (Luke) once competed in, Phil? Or a different one?

I didn't make the rules. The people who are running the show did. Personally, it shouldn't matter what style a person does. With regards to the forms the original MT did have forms and I don't mean the dance before modern MT matches. I know this because I watched forms practice when I was a Marine in Thailand.

From what I heard for the people running the event they want to have people who have forms in their respective styles get out there and try what they've been learning to test if it works or not.
