Choy Lee Fut Misprint in Wikipedia?

Who writes the Choy Lay Fut section under the topic Kung Fu in Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia?

On the first page, the site mentions that there are 3 branches of Choy Lay Fut and yet it names 4: 1) Hung Sing (HS) lineage of the Chan Family; 2) HS lineage of Chan Cheong Mo; 3) HS lineage of Cheung Yim; and 4) Buk Sing lineage of Tarm Sarm.

Yeah I agree.

However, typically the main famillies are CHan, Hung Sing and Buk Sing. Still, Chan Koon Pak was the one who started using the Hung Sing (strong victory), and his disciples kept using that name.

since he is chan heung’s son he got lumped up in the family clf, however, it thought that Jeong Yim may have been the one to teach gung fu to Koon Pak, who intitially didn’t want to learn kung fu, he wanted to become a merchant in Kong Moon.

Still, i agree, there really is 4 families of CLF, but again koon pak got lumped up with his fathers group.

If he learned from his father, then his school should have been called Hung Xiong (great sage hung sing) not something more on the lines with Jeong Yim’s CLF.

but i will tell you this…

it’s people from the Plum blossom federation. DFW’s people.

Yeah, I could see Koon Pak learning from Jeong Yim instead of his own father. That makes perfect sense.

actually, it does…

I dont teach my own son. He doesnt listen to me :). My student does :cool:

ok, my son is only 5 and has that stubborn german blood, but it might be the same

fu pow’s a dummy eddie, ignore him.

My sifu’s son has never learned gung fu from his father. My sifu tried to teach them but they weren’t interested.

according to chan yong fa’s account of chan heung and so on, it says that Koon Pak didn’t want to learn gung fu AT ALL.

but fu pow, you are even ignorant on the history of the very branch you jock.

you sucka

I have heard that after Chan Hueng passed away that Chan Koon Pak may have followed Jeong Yim. Not sure if it is true or not but I have heard it even in my own lineage.

But honestly, who cares :confused:

hskwarrior, fu pow is my kung fu brother, and I concider him an online friend. I’m not really interested in your fight, I like you both. I didnt say that to go against him really, was just chipping in.

What would these forums be without Fu Pow and HSKWarrior :wink:

eddie u sure fu-pow sees u as that aswell? a kungfu brother, and online friend?

coz fu-pow got real anal bout it last time wen someone called him that haha

i agree. he stands alone here.

who cares. I still see him like that, just as I see HSKWarrior as the same.

Yesterday I got the news that one of my friends and a business partner passed away (at age 24 only). Life seem to be short these days

If its true that actually kind of makes sense but the way hskpreacher spins it Chan Koon Pak chose to learn from Jeong Yim over his own father.

Sorry, who are you again? I must have missed it the first time I asked you.

For the record I do see Eddie as my friend. We don’t agree on everything but somehow I know that Eddie is a good guy. I even had my Sifu send him a personal invitiation to our tournament last year…not sure he ever got it though.

One thing that you need to learn Frank is that respect gets respect.

If you show me respect I’ll show you 2x respect back. If you disrespect me I’ll show you 2x disrespect back.

Its like my Sifu taught me somebody hits you, you hit them back twice as hard.

Fu Pow, your PM box is full.

Taken care of.

hi fu pow, i never got that invite, but thats the way of our postal system tho. if ever u need my address, you can check out site choylayfut.co.za

we are going way of topic now.

wikipedia is cool. you can find all sorts of cool info on there. Like this, which is almost fitting to this conversation http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_moon_landing_hoax_accusations :cool:

you spin it off as if i said Chan Koon Pak chose to learn from Jeong Yim.

I stated Chan Koon Pak did not learn from his father, maybe not initially( i wasn’t there) but according to chan yong fa’s translation…Koon Pak did not want to learn gung fu. gung fu wasn’t his thing. just like many kids these days, they wouldn’t want to learn from dad.

you are just mad that it didn’t come from you.

unlike you, i still research Choy Lee Fut history as much as i can.

eddie, you can view fu pow as you like. i never have a problem with you. we’re cool. regardless if you disagree with how i’m treating fu pow. see… the key word is treating. he gets treated as he treats others.

you’ve shown me respect…never. you’ve been against me from the start.

others here like eddie show me respect, even clfnole at times, but people like you get treated how you treat me.

treat me with respect and you get some in return. you talk smack to me you get smack talked right back.

i’ve got 15 years or more over you in CLF, and that means more experience.

show some respect and you will get it in return.

but you ain’t listenin’.:confused:

More likely, they put up with you.

Frankly, I’ve had enough of your antics Frank and I think other people have had enough of this bickering. There is a proposal going around that we all put you on ignore list and invite others to do the same.

Nice knowin’ ya.
