yeah, it could be a sincere post, which is why I did post an answer, but my first mind says it’s a troll. I’m watching “The Pirates of Dark Water” right now. remember that?
pirates of dark water… d.amn the name sounds familiar but im not sure what its about? is it animated? 
dawood
I have all the action fiqures for pirates of darkwater, somewhere.
That was a wonderful show
I was born in 1980 also.
:eek:
maybe you are like that guy in kung pow … your sifu teaches you everything wrong as a joke cause no one really likes you.
Phisker, don’t be upset. Did you really belive you would have any chance against a boxer on his homeground? Its quite natural but why not ask them to sparr with KF rules, i.e. on your homeground!
I did boxing before I started KF (Wing Chun) and I got beaten badly by elbows, low kicks etc. But if we put on 12oz gloves and sparred with boxing rules i killed my KF brothers.
Lol, I still remember the horror when I went in low and got an elbow smack on top of the head. Or the first kick in the groin… 
/Cheers..

yeah, it was a good show. So was “Captain Power and the Soldiers of the Future” remember that one? The last few minutes of the show was interactive! you could shoot at the enemies and they would shoot back at you. If they hit you, your pilot would be ejected from his ship. That was always really cool to me. The guy that made it went on to make Babylon 5
who cares if he’s trolling?
The question didn’t get me in a huff. You guys a little insecure maybe?
My initial response was:
Your gong-fu school sucks! They obviously aren’t teaching you how to fight and you should get out. There’s more to life than fighting but your comments about there resentment and not inviting you to their tea . .er. . .lion dancing party, would seem to indicate that they are petty and pathetic. If you like boxing more, go for it. If like the traditional stuff, take both classes. If you want to save money or are on some sort of mission to beat boxers at boxing while only training in a gong-fu school, switch schools.
Whoever brought up the tired old "oooh! scary gong-fu isn’t for playing, it’s for KILLING ! ! ! is a retard and their gong-fu sucks too. If you can’t adapt what your doing to the level of seriousness of the encounter than you are living in a fantasy world.
Sparring a boxer while wearing open fingered gloves would be a big advantage for me. The ability to grab is a big deal. never mind “deadly” panther fists and what-not. Anyways, a lot of gong-fu schools train sparring pretty much the same way as boxers. Footwork, punching, not much difference. At a southern style school there’s often hardley even any kicking. I also find one of the best ways to get people used to sparring is to limit the techniques like, right now we will only punch…now we will only kick… Now I will only defend while you attack and then vice versa.
Anyways, it gave me somthing to post about. It’s spring holiday and I’m bored out of my brain. Did you guys know that China is “closed” this week. There’s not a restaurant, not a gift shop, not a bank or even a **** house of prostitution open during the week of spring festival.
:o
You sound like a putz.
You don’t want to do Kung-Fu if you’re doing boxing. so (needle-and thread) just box…less money than boxing And Kung-Fu.
Kung-Fu being really great and even it working for you when you stick with it doesn’t matter. You are impatient. and won’t get good at Kung-Fu until you get more humble. Twenty-two? The way Kung-Fu works is sticking with it you get better the older you get. The focus shifts with age. But that doesn’t deminish their skill. Kung-Fu is a process.
Boxing has what long term play? Used for doing other tasks?
Your so called friends at the Kung-Fu place? Re evaluate your definition of friends.
You children? Six months? Not getting it yet? You might have time to get passonablestuff to your children on your way to getting the children. You’d wait to do big stuff until they were two. And philosophy until then? Try Kung-Fu for two more years.
You will throughout your life use stuff you got from Just Kung-Fu and that is perhaps it’s greatest value. Everyone can get something from it and it has uses throughout a person’s lifetime.

Question (Hypothetically of course). Were you fighting under the very restrictive rules of Boxing?, or were you allowed to do your own thing?
It seems if you were trying to “Make” your stances work, then you don;t know how to yet. The stances “Work” when you are taught techniques that happen to use them. You need to know how to enter, how to use distance, (Or lack of it ), and you need to know how to follow through. The Stances support your actions. If your thinking about them, then you don’t have any actions yet. If you don’t have any actions yet, you can’t fight.
royal makes points needle in eye.
ish
LOL GDA/No_know … -ish
Hey kung fu dudes…
This guy is trolling yall
I don’t really care if he’s trolling, I’ve taken over the conversation now, and I say we talk about why kung fu is superior to everythig else.
Phisker doesn’t seem like a troll to me… so far. But, Phisker, you haven’t answered the question about which style you’re training. MMA? Has it GOT any kungfu in it? Explain, dude!
6 months = nothing in many schools. There’s so much re-programming of your processes to go through…
Know no, refreshing to see you speaking more or less plain English these days. I’ll try to follow suit.

Train harder.
As a side note it sounds to me like you were boxing. Like other people have said - you were playing the boxing game. Its like a kickboxer starting on the ground and staying on the ground with a person who does BJJ. Who do you think will win?
Royce.
yeah, Royce would choke him.
