Blaezen doesn't fight 8 year old boys. He just chases 11 year old girls named Dakota.

That little shit has the Mullet of White Trash Powa - ain't no one can take him.

Look at it this way.

If the 8 year old keeps training, one day he will be a 21 year old.

Then he will kick your ass cause you'll be fucking 40+ hehe ;P

They even told me to "tone it down" a bit. I said "This is real life, get over it."

They never invited me back.

Thats great you can overpower women. However the *point* of most of those drills is to learn techniques on how to ward off an attacker. Which sometimes involves hitting them back. In a class where your learning technique, you DO NOT GO FULL FORCE. I'm sure many of the girls could have dropped you with one full kick to the groin, but they wouldnt do that because they were learning.

Sorry, I have taken many years of self defense, and it pisses me off when people try to play 'real life' when your learning techniques. Remindes me of one guy who thought it was funny to kick me as hard as he could while sparring, then tell me I couldnt hold my own in 'real life'. Untill I punched him square in the face and knocked him on his ass. He then had the nerve to tell me that was unfair because we were not supposed to hit hard to the head. Tough, thats 'real life'. Of course I got shit from the instructor for it, but the guy eased off after that.

Sorry, ownage onward....

Best to stomp him while he's young, because by 17 or so you've got no prayer~

[Screamfeeder]

he is already 15...that video was from '98

[Tuco]

I wonder how much damage he(at 8...) can do with a staff.

It's obvious that the speed of it is incredible, but I wonder how much mass * speed =... velocity? there is. Mostly I wonder if he hit me in the knee with his staff if it would break my knee or just piss me off =D

I don't know whether he could beat me with his staff or not(at 8), but I sure as hell would think twice about dickin' around with him if he started getting that fiery look in his eyes and shouted his crap at me, then spun his staff around like a fan in a turbocharger.

uhhhh

Any gooks or china-men able to confirm that the little blonde american kid screaming at the top of their lungs is not the intention of whatever martial art he's performing?

MARTIAL ART
NOT SPORT

They'd give their poo-na-na up to this fucking kid twirling his stick. They're not going to "ward" shit. Ward? Fuck you.

Here's a demonstration: | / - \ | / - \ |



Let's make a thread "how I'd rape a woman successfully" and discuss it further.

[Aulirophile]

I used to take Aikido. As an older student I often showed up for the kids classes to help out. However my teacher got prostate cancer and he sat out for a while, like four years, till he got his strength back. So classes were tought by the highest belt, with sensei sitting off to the side for the most part. Sometimes this was a nine year old black belt who'd been coming to the dojo since he was like three, long before I did.

Sensei also had a class at the local college which his son took over when he got sick, coming back from training in Japan to do so. For some reason, can't remember, the college class came over to the dojo one day for something and the college kids laughed at the kid teaching the class. Sensei told everyone to get off the floor, put the kid in the a big circle surrounded by all the college kids and older, bigger students. Was like seven of them (would have been eight but sensei kept me out of it, I'd studied other martial arts under another sensei and wouldn't have stuck to grappling when told to "really fight") and told them to go at him, not holding back. That kid threw them around the room for a good ten minutes and they never laid a hand on him. At one point Sensei told him to STOP USING HIS HANDS (this was a normal drill we went through, throwing people handless) and he still kept it up. He had three people in the air at the same time once and often threw people into other people without looking, he knew where they were.

Granted these people were overconfident and then angry, which don't help in a fight against someone who stays calm, and this kid had both years of training and exceptional talent. But don't think a well-trained martial artist who is young can't kick your ass becase you're bigger or stronger.

Aikido is a little different since it's a soft side art, and a very impressive one at that. It'd be a little different if the kid was trying to fend off using a hard style like karate. All of this is very informal, but it still stands...no matter how well developed you are at 8 (with the exception of the little hercules kid) you aren't going to match the overwhelming muscular development of an addition 10-12 years---especially with 8 of them. That said, I'd still leave him alone.

Until Tony Jaa whips out his Muay Thai Madness and kills everyone with a knee, a head, two fists, a shoulder, a foot, a shin, an elbow, and some teeth to the face. All at once. Muay Thai is some crazy business.

Ong Bok was such a cool movie

You don't have to match their muscular development, is my point really. Granted Aikido doesn't require much strength to be effective when used properly, it was just the only example I've personally witnessed. But in general martial arts is more about skill and less about strength. Will more strength help someone win against someone who is equally well trained? Sure, any advantage at that point is going to help. Will someone who is trained to fight and isn't afraid of hurting people but who can't lift fifty pounds beat the shit out of a body builder who thinks he can win by charging in? Yes. If the kid was using a hard style like karate and was as skilled at it as this kid was he wouldn't need much strength. You can kick someone in the knee with hardly any force at all and, if you get the angle right, they'll be down on the ground in pain for a long time.

The only question I have when I ask myself if that kid could kick someone's ass is whether he is psychologically capable of intentionally inflicting pain on someone, I have no doubt he could have beat down a fair number of people twice his age in all other ways.

And damn, I'm tired of moving around. I want to stay in one place and find a dojo again, talking about martial arts has me thinking about the shape I was in while I was doing it versus now.

That's just "movie" Muay Thai. Real Muay Thai is pretty damn simple and not nearly as flashy as what you saw.

edit: Here's the highlight of Ramon Dekker (a real muay thai legend) I posted in the movie forum.

Tell that to Bob Sapp who steamrolls over opponents, which he even admits, who are immensely more skilled than him. Then again, watch him as Mirko Crocop makes him cry on the ground or Fujita bashes his skull in with his foot. Physical advantages cover a huge gap wherein skill is concerned.
