That was Rahsun and I play sparring at a park when Phil was in town.

LOL @ him not hurting me. Not sure what that is about. We were barely making contact with our strikes. I’ll have to ask Phil about that.

We were playing with some takedown entries and counters. Funny how he left most of the takedowns out.

Yep, that’s my squeaky voice alright.

Dale we might have our differences but you don’t need to explain for an old dude you move quite well.

Follow, follow , follow, follow…

Sorry, couldn’t resist.

Knifefighter,

You ate some of the chain punches, did you get any submissions on him?

We weren’t punching… we were slap/tag-sparring.

[QUOTE=fiercest tiger;715470]did you get any submissions on him?[/QUOTE]

We weren’t working on any submissions or anything else on the ground. We were mostly playing with him working to keep me away and me trying to get into clinch range.

He didn’t have any experience on the ground and, with the exception of the time he stood up from my north/south position, we had been stopping each time I took him down.

uh, knife, don’t you think the theme of a lot of your arguments here is just a little unfair considering that you dis us a lot and then are shown to play like this which is nothing like the degree of contact you go on about.

I “play” like that regularly. It’s good training, more so for whichever guy has the bigger challenge on his hands when dealing with whatever material you are dealing with. Be it Push hands or neutralizing/destroying/dissolving various types of incoming attacks.

you seem to use a silat or tiger kungfu cross guard for your head as opposed to a tight diamond guard in your approach to clinch range, where’d you pick that up? :stuck_out_tongue:

That’s a good point. However, that type of “sparring” is quite unlike the normal sparring I do when training. That was a friendly spur of the moment session with a guy I had just met. It was just slap sparring… no kicks, no groundwork. It was pretty much just playing with distancing into clinching/takedown range. Nobody even brought a mouthpiece.

This explains why KF is always bagging on Abel. Bad flying monkey experiences.

You mean these guys?

Listen…Phil Redmond will be 59 in 2 months…I just turned 56 yesterday…and Dale is probably in his mid-fifties also. So I know Phil for many years - as we were partners in the first Traditonal Wing Chun (William Cheung) school here in NYC beginning in 1984 - and are still the best of friends. And I know his student, Rahsun, for many years also.

So let me give all of you an educated guess as to what’s going on: Phil probably told Rahsun something like “try to keep it friendly” - and Rahsun being “Rahsun” - he decided to post vids entitled “my sifu told me not to hurt him.”

Take it with a grain of salt. :rolleyes:

Hmmm, considering his tag is “knife fighter” I got a good idea where he picked it up. I was gonna say Kun Tao, but I don’t know enough to differentiate between the two. I do know that Joe used to do a similar ‘hinging’ thing when he sparred. I’m betting whater’s being used is coming from the knifework somewhere.

Yeah, but it was 10 minutes you could have spent doing something more practical. And when you shifted your stance to left-leg-back/right-leg-foward, you wasted about 45 seconds because unless you are left handed you wouldn’t really fight that way. The only conclusion I can make from this video is that your entire training regime is not realistic and should be revised.:stuck_out_tongue:
