To judge any art of a youtube vid would be silly IMO. I did Wing Chun for about 10 years. I love the hands and the sensitivity that Wing Chun gives you. I now study Silat but still use the Wing Chun hand to enter and such. I'm more of a fan of mixing up the systems you learn. Wing Chun from the waste down is worthless to me but that's just my opinion.

I would agree that a traditional Wing Chun guy would get killed by a boxer most of the time. And sorry if I tried to make it sound like Wing Chun was superior to other striking arts, it's just the art I like. I use Wing Chun to enter, I would never stay outside with a boxer. I know I would get killed. Trad. Wing Chun is done is a goat stance which is ****tared to me, I fight in more of a boxing or forward stance. And again, I'm just using it to close the distance so I can use my Silat.

A lot a gangster wannabees are all talk. They try to intimidate with their look and attitude. They walk around never ever smile, witha chip on their shoulder. True badasses with confidence don't act like that, at least most don't in my opinion.

LMAO!! That idiot got what he deserved. Threatening and attacking a 67 year old man.

My favorite part of the vid was at the end where the guy says: "....bring a amalambs..........bring a amalambs".

yeah i like how he gets up after beard man was off the bus and starts talkin smack again. but real quiet, not loud enough for anyone but the real close camera to catch it.

turns out the black guy had spent like 16 yrs in prison for murder or something,and this was part of his parole revocation and is now headed back to the pen. he better hope they dont get youtube in prison lol.

Absolutely NOT Wing Chun, WC is all about center line, NOT that.
