Nice video!
I especially liked those applications.
just gotta say that these have been some of the best vids i’ve seen and a personal favorite. thanks so much.
Yeah that was a great vid.
That spinning backfist KO at the end was nice. Ouch!
Hi Nick,
Nice vids. That was back in my day. Our venue was Sydney Town Hall. In 87, I fought in 80kg.
The sporting comissioner (in NSW) made them bring in boxing rings in 88 or 89, and doctors and stand-by ambulances, etc, which made the operation too expensive. I think the last big one was 90 at the Entertainment Centre.
Am glad your enjoying the youtube clips and thanks for your great feedback guys.
Yum Cha, you right… those tournaments were held in Sydney. There were initial elimination bouts and then later the finals were fought in the ring…
I forgot to point out that the two fighters wearing the short trunks/pants were Mark Whelan ( the tall guy) and Eddie ( forgot his surname ) from Chen Yong Fa’s Choy Lee Fut School in Sydney.
The other fighters with the long kung fu pants on, are Master Dave Lacey’s Buck Sing fighters.

Hey Nick,
Yea, I remember now, NSW and VIC each had eliminations, than in VIC they held a combined final, or something like that. I remember the winners went to Melbourne to fight again.
We didn’t use the vests, and headgear was optional. Thing I hated was we never got a clean explanation of the rules. No knees or elbows, but takedowns were allowed. I think now in retrospect, it was probably similar to san da rules. It was an untidy affair, probably better than 50% were knockouts or TKOs, and they were always wiping up blood. Nothing better than a bloody training shirt to wear through the year. 
People talk about fighting now days, how it has to be “sport” fighting to be effective, a derivative of kickboxing. Those bouts were my lesson otherwise. Perhaps you too were there?
Some bouts were muddy slugfests, some kickboxing, and the very few were stylistic. Watching a good style fight was about as good as it got.
Hey Yum Cha,
The fights on pt 5 were in Melbourne in 1987. In this particular tournament both the eliminations and finals were both fought in Melbourne with the finals fought at the Melbourne town hall. ( sorry I mixed up the 1987 tournament with others I was thinking about and stand corrected about being fought in Sydney)

Thanks for posting your videos. In one of the youtube links it shows an older asian guy in a robe and boxers cutting his mouth and then doing forms in the kitchen…what is the deal with that? black magic kung fu or??

Eddie was a natural and Mark is still around, you can see him here, he is the first off the mark in the demo and then he did the kwan-do. Not bad for an old guy!

great!
Definately the best example I’ve seen of CLF getting used full contact on youtube. You can really see them using their gung fu and dominating with it. The Applications were bang on too!
Awsome!
Hey Diego, that was sun da, spirit god kung fu. Ill speak to my Sifu and see if I can elaborate more as I dont know much about it.
Satori thanks for your great comments. I watched you guys on youtube and think your great. Can you pm me, as I saw your page on myspace but wasn’t able to access it. Thanks.

I should add that it was a great pleasure to see the video of Grand Elder Lung Jee.
Thanks for posting
satori…may i ask a question?
how come you guys say lung gee, when his name doesn’t have dragon in it?
no big deal, but i used to argue with naya bout this way back in the days.
hsk
No argument nessecary, suppose I wasn’t paying that close of attention to the spelling. I’m just spelling it the way it sounds (to me) when my Sifu says it.
cheers
no its no prob at all…i was just wondering because its only your lineage that calls him lung gee…back in the day naya and i argued whether it was lung gee cheung or something, but lun chee is lun chee…
no biggie…

Actually we are a part of Lung Gee Cheung lineage as is Master Lacey. He was Lai Hung and Chan Woo Lueng’s Sifu
cheers
