It is a Youtube link Razaunida,

Go search for Philipino Arts & Hung Gar in MMA on Youtube if you want to find it without using the link.

Demo before the match = hung gar movements.

Actual fighting in the match = Muay Thai standing to BJJ on the ground.

The CRAW!! :smiley:

Hung has a very similar feel to Muay Thai when in use (its what I generally compare it to when I explain what it is, only we use the forearms like the Thai’s use the legs as well).

Outside of specialty hand forms, yes, HK looks quite typically like MT.
The “muay Thai” guard that is taught by some ( where you cover up to protect and extend on of the hand to clinch), is very similar to the one used in HK ( except we don’t extend it so much).

no doubt. It’s our own Subitai-Onasis Parungo.

I can’t watch it at work, but I figured it was a video of O.

One of Wing Lam’s guys, just FYI.

Indeed that is “O”.

And yes, he is a kickass Kung Fu man. :slight_smile:

Well, in HK you have:
jap, cross, hook, uppercut, elbows and knees.

So which is hung gar, this one that you posted or the one’s I posted with all the “masters”?

I love Muay Thai, but if you want to talk about badass, try some Burmese Bando. Same thing but with headbutts and in some cases, no rule on the number of knockdowns allowed per round.

If you want something badder than that, get a gun or come train Hung Gar :D.

… you do know burmese always lose to thais

muay thai thai rules favor thais

In Thailand, yes. In Burma its usually the opposite from what I recall. Likely both grab disadvantaged fighters to fight their own. Nonetheless, having seen Burmese arts in action, those guys are tough as nails as are the Muay Thai guys at Lumpini and Ratchadomneon.

letwei looks more energetic and fast paced but i really enjoy watching both kinds.
