Nick Thompson Called Out by Crackhead Iron Rings Manager

[headcharge42]

Nick Thompson is a bitch tho- for those who know the story, or pay attention to the video, Nick was going to fight him and when he accepted, Nick backed out and told him not unless he could come up with 40,000 dollars. Which is probably a hell of a lot more than Nick has ever made in a pro MMA fight

he made twicw that in his last fight fool

1. Because his parents enrolled him in it and it is a traditional and popular form in China. Might as well ask why Eddie Van Halen's parents enrolled him in piano lessons or why Einstein had to take history in school.
   
2. As soon as he got a chance, he moved away from and altered this basic system to become what he termed Jeet Kun Do. Lee saw traditional singular martial arts as too rigid and form-focused for real combat situations ... JKD represents a blending of effective techniques from a number of traditional arts, coupled with a freer form and undercut with a belief in weight training, flexibility training, modern conditioning technologies, etc. Does the way that Bruce Lee MIXED together MARTIAL ARTS sound familiar?
   
3. Lee was also a proponent and practitioner of modern western combat arts; he once famously stated that "a man with one year's training in boxing and wrestling could defeat a lifetime practitioner of kung fu." Again, does mixing boxing and wrestling--in the context of martial arts competition--sound familiar at all?
   
4. Additionally, Bruce Lee informally studied jiujitsu with Wally Jay.
   
5. Bruce Lee is overall a terrible example of how effective and excellent TMAs are. He is considered a forefather of MMA, and was a vocal proponent of eschewing tradition in favor of fluidity, effectiveness, and the blending of styles into freer hybrid fighting system.
   
6. I love when people spell "retarded" wrong.

yeah he's considered the forefather of mma, mostly because of his immense popularity. but he was not the first to mix styles. look up kajukenbo, these guys were mixing styles around the time bruce was born. KarateJudo/JujitsuKenpoBoxing. Kajukenbo.

So you actually read this shit? I think I deserve a ban already. But it was good while it lasted. Seeing these jack-offs rattle off nonsense and ganging up because they're too pathetic to do anything alone.

you sound like a lamer

 

[MercuryGirl]

this guy is delusional

i pratice MMA(BJJ and muay thai) and i bounce at a pub where there are fights every freaken weekend

and i can tell you what guy is gonna be trouble or not.. this maoshan is gonna be trouble...but not in the way you think

trouble in the way that he's insecure within himself and still has "things to prove" so any eye contact or a slight bump by someone and he will cause trouble

but the thing is, guys like that are the easiest to beat...cause they have nothing but a "pose"

i have to restrain myself every time i toss idiots like that out

reading this thread makes me want to kill children

I don't have to be reading this thread to want that, but people who grow up to be like this guy is a big part of it.

 

[MercuryGirl]

dont be harsh on this maoshan guy... i read him like a book

massive insecurity..his "sense of self" is dependent on this ba gau system being the real thing...his livelihood depends on it too

all he is doing is protecting his "self" from a nervous breakdown..just like when royce gracie choked out all those fools in ufc 1...the traditional martial artist were like "shit all i have taught and train is bullshit, i'm a sham"

thus thats why he is so vehemently defending him"self"

he is protecting his sense of "self" because it will break down

i have nothing but compassion for him...poor guy really...his livelyhood and his "self" about to go up in the air...poooofff

Uneducated fool.

 

[Flexwave2003]

I love how these guys shut down their Youtube comments, looks like sherdog members were paying them a visit lol.

They are obviously self taught, and by no means experts in Kung Fu of any kind. There is some legit techniques in there, but they are performed poorly by these wannabe's and some of the clips are obviously moves that were performed without any kind of real training.


In other words, they couldnt even beat my ass much less Nick Thompson's ass.

 

[ScheerUK]

Hehe thats a good one.

 

[hAYN JJ]

Hahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Flip Zee]

Troo.

Thompson is the one backing down in this challenge though. He initially said he'd fight the guy on his turf and for a reasonable amount of money, and now he has upped to it to an unreasonable amount and wants to do it on his own terms.

He probably just spouted off at the mouth initially and then his management brought him back down to Earth.

Nick ansewered the "real mma fighter needed" thread at the UnderGround Forum and said he would fight for 20-40k upfront at a neutral location. Maoshan told Nick that he would find a promoter, never got back with Nick, and made this video in the meantime - bitch move. Read Nick's responses in this thread for the real story.

Genki Sudo fight's Kung fu guy.

Something similar happened a few years ago at Chicago Fitness Center, where Shonie Carter trains. Something to the effect of a local boxer called out Shonie, who challenged the guy to a fight, and the guy didn't show.

It was a bodybuilder.

He talked trash about MMA and about how he could beat some of the fighters, Shonie called him out, the bodybuilder then found out that Shonie was also a professional boxer so he backed out and asked to spar with Shonie instead.

That was a great humor relief....:icon_lol:

Taekwondo is not Kung Fu.

 

[mmanut]

So because he is black he is an automatic crackhead?

i hate you

Strawman argument from hell........

No one said that he was a crackhead because he's black. I think people think he's a crackhead because he's trashing MMA as a legitimate self-defense form, he's boasting about living in the ghetto, and he's convinced that his shitty Kung Fu will trump MMA (when modern MMA originated as an attempt to prove what actually works in a real fight).

 

[Jumpstomp****]

Taekwondo is not Kung Fu.

So, you don't get the connection?

Hilarious, this guy better start working on his jits
