Why isn't Wingchun used in UFC

[WhitestKidU’Know]

Did you even watch the video you posted? That boxer looks like he has no idea what he is doing and neither does the other guy.

 

[eternaldarkness]

Seen it. The so-called Karate fighter was clueless. Got overwhelmed but didn't really take much damage. Sure, WC can surprise an low rank ammy, not doubt.

the supposed karate fighter was clueless like you say. but i though it was interesting seeing some of the techniques in action.

 

[Towerworld]

Lol?? I have faith that the earth is flat. Why should we have to test that idea?

Well you have faith the earth is round right? Or do you have to fly to space yourself to see if its true?

 

[DanMMAleague]

It's beyond the scope of the human reflex.

It's like palmistry, clairvoyance, alchemy, faith healing, the hunt for Bigfoot, flat earth etc. Cultish nonsense fields that don't exist but some people still covet it, 100% serious.

Wingchun can win on every playing field, Bruce Lee for imstance would not lose to any UFC fightsr. He can easily read movements before his ippoenents make them.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Wow man your fight IQ is quite low.

 

[Po]

I remember that. The guy was practicing it in the octagon before the fight started. I remember rogan said something like I hope he doesn't try that in the fight he'll get smashed. He did and he did.

He got smashed because he isn't as good of a striker as Diaz.

High level guys have used intercepting. Fedor and Foreman and thai boxers.

Wing chun defeat all man

 

[listrahtes]

One of the the best jokes I ever encountered in martial arts was a demonstration of Wing Chun "Anti Grappling " moves by a so called Sifu /master whatever. <Lmaoo>

pure comedy gold and a very bad idea against any wrestler. You just make him more angry

It looked something like that:

No, I don't have to rely on faith that the earth is round. It can be systematically and scientifically tested whether or not it's round. Similarly, if you BELIEVE that your bullshido works, then why don't you test it?

 

[Apollo33]

feels bad man, all these fools putting in all the money and effort could have just joined a boxing gym and learned legitimate basics of striking.

Wing Chun has to be the most awkward looking martial art ever invented. it only ever looked good in movies. In real life it's really spastic, no headmovement, no foodwork, no real power.

 

[ScoopSubMMA]

Only women truly know how to use our own energy against us.

 

[I Am Legion]

It is a movie Martial Art. It looks good on film. Useless anywhere else. Boxing/Kickboxing movements have proven to be the best defensive and offensive stances. Then wrestling, and if you athletic, you are elite.

 

[chubbman]

Because master Wong has YouTube videos to make

 

[RichardN7]

As you can see from the video, a proper Wingchun master can easily counter the powerful but predictable shots of even the best boxers.
Wingchun's advantage lies in science, the ability to redirect your opponents power and use it against himself while using little of your own energy.

It was made to enable even the most physically weakest people to overpower bigger stronger opponents.

Most guys in the UFC throw only big slow power punches don't you think someone with faster unpredictable wingchun would be able to counter them with ease?

‘Even the best boxers’...
Mate, I’m barely an amateur level boxer and kickboxer and I will fucking DESTROY any Wing Chun cunt you find.

 

[sdss]

Why is it that everyone mocks the WIng Chun thread, (and rightfully so,) but we have to take the "A-level athlete with six months of training" and "boxer with six months of wrestling" threads seriously?

 

[Bartinho]

Wingchun can win on every playing field, Bruce Lee for imstance would not lose to any UFC fightsr. He can easily read movements before his ippoenents make them.

That pure speculation because Bruce never fought, but he admitted himself that Wing Chun and other traditional styles were organized despair, exercises in futility, and not realistic. So, no.

 

[Yamcha]

True but there's a select few.

I believe there's a really good wing chun school at Stanford

 

[Towerworld]

No, I don't have to rely on faith that the earth is round. It can be systematically and scientifically tested whether or not it's round. Similarly, if you BELIEVE that your bullshido works, then why don't you test it?

But Bruce lee and his sensei have been tested against every martial art and vame ouut on top aswell. If im already convinced why do i have to prove it to myself?

It looked something like that:

The video is actually realistic representation: the wrestlers try to land a slow takedown but they're intercepted whth punches and put out by their own momentum.

Thats what would happen if any wrestler; lesnar, daniel cormier GSP ect tried to take down a master like Bruce Lee or the guy in the video that i posted.

You can be convinced of whatever you want. That doesn't make it real.

Bruce Lee didn't use wing chun. He used jeet kun do and he only developed after testing a multitude of other martial arts. Bruce Lee understood that martial arts develop and evolve and he constantly tested against other styles. Something you don't do. You're going against Lee's martial arts philosophy.

It's also clear you're young, naive and have no idea what you're talking about
