Has anyone sparred, or seen this guy fight? He does W. Cheung’s WC and his Wing Chun is GRAET!
What makes it great?
His WC is clean fast accarate and powerful. I have never seen or heard of any other WC guy have such skill in subdoing and or knock a person out.
Is Japan a small country?
If Keith Mazza really kicked the sh*t out of Andrew Draheim he probably is that good.
Careful
Hello,
While it is all fine and good to admire others in the arts and to even promote them, to an extent, this could very well enter into undesired ground.
The incident in NY need not be brought up.
I think it is great that Keith is respected by some but lets remember that he is only one person and represents only a small segment of the Wing Chun world. One might also argue that Rick Spain, Emin Boztepe etc were the best. And, to some this would be true.
Rather than get into personal advocacy of individuals or systems lets try to stay to discussing the art instead. Each of us could flood the board with our personal likes and dislikes but it would do nothing to advance our knowledge of the art.
Keith teaches in Cherry Hill, New Jersey so he is a bit of a haul from Japan.
Peace,
Dave
Sorry Sihing73, didn’t mean to start anything. It was supposed to be a compliment to both persons involved but I expressed myself rather clumsy.
/Peace
I use to live in NJ. Actually, I was born and raised there.
Keith actually did not grow up in NJ but actually in NY and I am sorry but do not feel he should be thought of as all that Great - his own daughter disagrees with that thought - I actually have a great question for all of you in this world based on honor and respect - if you turn your back on your own child should you be thought of as honorable?

What does “Turn your back” mean in this case?
It could be:
A parent turning their back on a child that dishonors the family.
A parent turning their back on a child that is physically or psychologically abusive.
A male with antisocial personality disorder who “sows his seeds” turning his back on his randomly scattered offspring.
A mother or father turning their back on a baby who they know they can’t care for and putting it up for adoption.
Either parent giving up their baby to the other for the reason above.
One parent having a restraining order against the other.
The parent with custody has a nomadic lifestyle.
It could be many other things besides. So I’m not sure what you mean by “turning your back on your child is dishonorable.” Are all of the options above dishonorable?

Great points, Christian. It looks like with Cinderella’s first post being almost slanderous and by them digging in the crates of the forum, they’re looking to re-hash old stuff. Probably just did a Google search on Keith’s name and is looking to start a smear campaign. Won’t get far, though.
Without commenting on the question of honor over how a person may or may not deal with their offspring… is anonymously flinging private matters onto the fanblades of public scrutiny to see how it splatters considered honorable?
