Donnie Yen vs Michael Jai White | Wing Chun vs Taekwondo

[@Lechscheit]

You cannot compare combat experience and strength by comparing "fictional" fights in a movie

[@lunatikk1967]

Thank you for saying this

[@konteezy203]

Agreed

[@surgeneral108]

EXACTLY!

[@phoenixthedevourer1716]

​@@lunatikk1967 True

[@mikeydyates]

I can't even believe that has to be said....I was thinking it the whole time. The man was actually commenting on the pain received in the fake fights? In that case, Donnie Yen doesn't stand a chance against Spawn.

[@toddstudio79]

I love both actors, and both absolutely deserve respect for not only their Martial Arts accomplishments, but also for their integrity, and honor. Yen is actually a Master of 9 different Chinese Martial Arts, and can seamlessly transition from one to another, or integrate them to maximize the effectiveness of all. He has also trained to use these Arts in practical fighting situations. Not just for their flashy and/or traditional appearance. No matter what, Donnie Yen would be a formidable opponent in a real fight. MJ White? What can you say that hasn't been said. A powerhouse. Strength, size, speed, agility, patience, and the ability to alter his approach at will All elements that make him a terrifying opponent Who would win? Tough call. White is clearly dominant with power, but I think Yen edges him out on speed, and flexibility. Not by much, but enough. If Yen can avoid taking direct shots, I think he could ultimately overtake White But ANY error in judgement, or strategy, and I think White sends him to dreamland. That's just my opinion. Either way...I think it would be an EPIC battle!

[@originalmindset5278]

Well said, very well said. I agree. 💯

[@heavystarch100]

Well said, but it would be like Tyson and Jones in their prime! But in my opinion, Mass power and speed will win every time! White is massive and extreme fast. He won his first title at 16 against seasoned 26 year olds! White for the win.

[@toddstudio79]

@heavystarch100 Generally, I agree. Although, I have seen dozens of "real-life" fights, and I've watched a smaller, faster fighter, take down an opponent twice his size. Not taking anything away from White. He's frighteningly fast and extremely powerful. I just think Yen has a few more tools in his toolbox. However, like I said, even the slightest error, and White ends it with one solid shot. At the end of the day, it's all just speculation anyway. Because that's a fight none of us will ever get to witness.

[@timbuckingham6734]

These choreographed movie scenes well impressive, have nothing to do with real matches of world class fighters.

[@adambyrd3324]

That is why people like Jackie Chan, Donnie Yen and Tony Jaa are beast

[@Mazameitene1993]

And Bolo Yeung

[@rooseveltoggssr.9647]

I thank God that I will Never have to worry about having to bump heads with either one of these guys.

[@jcastro0229]

Street fights are much different. Been doing martial arts for 30 years now. It’s not the same.

[@JorgeArias-f4z]

Buenos días profes, exelente maestro s de artes marcial de cines.Estan buenos los movimientos para la defensa personal y combate

[@freefiregameing57]

Clearly you haven't watched all the movies of Donnie yen...in which he fights a whole army... and survives

[@Rek_Rc]

Clearly, you don't understand reality and think that movies are real. Yen wouldn't make it through one round in a real fight with a real fighter. He'd be scooped off his feet so fast He'd pass out from disbelief before his opponent even slams him.

[@normanhanna2037]

It’s a movie please it’s not real

[@artsolano6762]

It’s not what Art form is better, it’s which move are best for you. Bruce Lee taught this long ago. In MMA no one uses Wing Chung. Oh and as you state this announcer bases everything off of movie scripts. lol

[@amonnanjaku]

They are both very proficient inside fighters. The question is who would have the absolute initiative in ending it for good in the first 15 seconds. We are talking about permanent joint injury. MJW can use his reach, but he knows that's as much of a weakness as much as a strength. Wing Chung/Taichi fighter, if he can't be as fast and transition immediately... He is at a disadvantage. They would both go inside and try to secure a choke or submission...to avoid permanent damage to the other. This isn't a fight of strength...who has more wit and cunning to out maneuver the other into submission, with as little damage as possible is the motivation . Respect...real warriors don't want to destroy their mutuals, unless they have no other choice.

[@MulwanyiDaviJosh]

Its not all about energy. It's all about skills and speed. Then just know Donnie Yen is the best kung-fu actor who succeeded Bruce lee.

[@ultimaxxrunner]

Scripted fights...🙄 has nothing to do with reality.

[@ModernNeandertal]

Scott Atkin would be my choice over White or Yen. All three are great at movie martial arts so who knows which of those guys can really take a punch because that is what it all boils down to, who can take it and who can't.

[@ninpo23tj]

Donnie yen is not a Wing Chun master but he learned the techniques for the movie extremely well. A big fan of Donnie yen.

[@arthurpendragon3000]

I know who wins. Whoever the script says won. Fictional fights mean nothing. Even comparing techniques, heart and luck have a bearing.

[@adambyrd3324]

That's like a black belt from America against a white belt from Japan their white belts are our black belts

[@wheelyumdee3289]

Facts

[@Adib_Saha]

Most of Micheal jai white fight scene makes him look OP, he wins easily...sometimes without him being injured

[@Yeino]

M. J. White is more a Shōtōkan-ryū and Kyokushin-ryū practitioner than a Taekwondo practitioner.

[@Bijuklich]

both have awesome fighting style, also boyka :)

[@sonracky8500]

Apparently Michael's elements is basically Shotokan,kyokusin,goju ryu and ziou zitsu.secondary tang soo do and tae kwon do or wushu as styles.excellent video.

[@mrcorneliusfrancis6283]

This is like comparing how these two perform in their movie. Nothing like comparing them in real battle.

[@dim3nt0]

its called acting.. put any of them in a real fight and it will look very different then in the movies

[@toraguchitoraguchi9154]

Jai White was a full contact karate fighting Champion who fought for years before he turned to acting.....Donnie Yen was a Wushu forms champion who moved into acting in his youth after winning a forms display competition. Who will win if they fought one another? You go figure.

[@oluwafemiarojojoye4951]

I will win the two of them combined in a single match. Be rest assured, you will find in the emergency ward.😆

[@The-LongRoad-Home]

you really can't compare Michael Jay white to a fictional interpretation of a character with fictional events. I've never seen Donnie Yen really fight

[@KristiGay1973]

Ip Man was a real person. Don’t talk about things you have no clue about.

[@jackodato9339]

When skills are equal, strength wins.

[@BrevCircumflex]

They're both professional fighters, but one of is a lot bigger than the other. Since reality is a lot more ruthless than fantasy, when everything else is equal between fighters, the bigger guy is going to win. That's why the UFC and boxing have weight classes.

[@Blackstryder]

In a no-holds-barred, hand-to-hand fight, you are dealing with two incredibly skilled and formidable fighters, each with distinct advantages that make this showdown tough to call. Michael Jai White brings serious power and size. At 6’1” and around 215 lbs, he’s built like a tank, with a deep understanding of several martial arts styles, including Kyokushin karate, Shotokan, Taekwondo, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. His power, especially in short-range, and his ability to absorb hits from intense conditioning would make him a beast in close quarters. White’s athleticism and explosiveness give him the edge in raw strength, something Donnie Yen would have to constantly work to counter. Donnie Yen, on the other hand, is a technician with unmatched agility and reflexes honed over decades in various forms, like Wing Chun, Judo, and traditional Wushu. He is faster and possibly more technically adaptable. Yen’s skillset in fluid, unpredictable movement and his ability to exploit any opening-down to the smallest flaw in an opponent’s stance or rhythm-gives him an edge in precision and accuracy. He would aim to tire White out, avoiding direct engagement and utilizing speed and technique to keep the fight controlled. In a street-style, no-rules situation, White’s power could easily turn the tide with one well-placed hit, but Yen’s accuracy and speed would force White to stay on constant guard. If it goes to the ground, White’s strength and weight advantage could help him control the fight. However, if Yen keeps it at range, using quick, calculated strikes, he’d have a better chance. In pure hand-to-hand combat, it could go either way, but White’s size and explosiveness might give him a slight edge if he’s able to close the distance. Yen would need to play a long game, leveraging speed and control to wear him down.

[@adambyrd3324]

Shaolin and Wu shu are highly trained warriors

[@ShuSo-ih7qx]

Excellent

[@marvhollingworth663]

You talk about these fight scenes as if you don't know they're choreographed.

[@SuperHansburger93]

MJW would absolutely mop the floor with Donnie Yen.

[@jankruger1184]

Das Geheimnis beider Kämpfer ist Choreographie. Die Stile bei einem Martialartsfilm haben sehr, sehr wenig mit Kampfsport zu tun. Eher viel mehr mit einem perfekten Ballet.

[@BillyGeorgeWilliams]

even bruce lee once said "size does not matter".

[@Fearlessphil100]

Real world achievements will give a better account of a persons skills, not movie scene's. Take an earlier actor with martial skills Chuck Norris who was actually 7 times world Karate champion. Also Jet Li fought in actual martial art tournaments from when a kid, even beating adult opponents. I know little of either Jai Whites or Donni Yen's real world competitive experience but respect both for their athleticism and ability in choreographed fight scenes. P.S. If going off movie scenes alone I'd put my money on Tony Jaa, seemingly able to blend Kung Fu and Muay Thai and Jujitsu with incredible gymnastic ability and athleticism and speed:)

[@Joseph-x4u6l]

Scott Adkins has cooked MJW multiple times, but he's never defeated Donnie Yen💀

[@rdean150]

You don't even tell us the names of the films so we can actually watch these scenes ourselves?

[@wmgthilgen]

Film's are not to the N-th degree reliabale when it comes to comparison's. They are to the N-th degree entirely scripted. When push come's to shove, regardless of the style one may utilize even if it's the usage of multiple styles. Both comperitor's being the best of the best. The one who simply zig's when they should have zagged will loose.

[@kimbelsimpson7535]

Donnie Yen looks more like what I call a scientific fighter with his speed and precise rapid fire blows.

[@IanGates-bo8fk]

I think the voice over guy got his Michael Jai White movies mixed up. The first clip showing him fighting the arrogant MMA fighter is the movie Never Back Down 3, and the second clip is from the movie Falcon Rising

[@outlaw6429]

Michael Jai White would toss Donnie around like a rag doll in a real fight.

wdym "not many people will know" its like top3 fighter actor

[@ElricX]

I like both of these actors but it really comes down to physics. Big, skilled, physical guy vs. smaller, skilled , physical guy the big guy is going to win 90% of the time. There's a reason weight classes are a thing. And of course like lots of others have said in the comments already, this is all fiction anyway.

[@roypatterson9910]

Donnie Yen would beat thegg hit out of Michael Jai, Donnie Yen also knows about seven different styles of martial arts that he's mastered, and I've read a lot about Donnie Yen and how badass he really is, so my money would go on Donnie Yen

why are we talking about acting like its real

[@josbinyoface6276]

First of all, let’s come back to to reality. It’s not fights it’s tv land aka FAKE so until they go in a ring for real, then no one really knows who will actually come out a victor. 🤷🏽‍♂️🤯

[@narendrasinghtank9716]

No chinese fighting technique stand against mma fighter, even rookie can beat

[@tlsig]

Jai's special focus is on Kyokushin karate, which is much harder than Taekwondo and the like! You can see that he often uses Mawashi kaiten geri in different forms. kzbin.info/www/bejne/i5eYdJ1qetytnck This is the hardest blow you can take and also extremely dangerous! WC has no chance against Kyokushin karate, which has been proven many times in fights.

Right off the bat,TKD is FAR INFERIOR to wing chun and he could NEVER beat donnie Yen, PERIOD...My friend would easily beat Jai white, only his shorinji ryu karate, the ABSOLUTE best form of all karate, taught to me by an isshinryu karate guy and the first comment he made to me was, it's NUTS, he literally said NUTS my friend does shorinji ryu and that his 8th ( no typo 8 ) degree black belt sensei in isshinryu COULD NOT stand a chance against my friend...He said in a silly way, yet made himself clear, that my friend is a machine and unstoppable robot and MANY say it's too dangerous to teach and use...PURE ORIGINAL okinowan karate...It's based on kung fu, a high degree of precision, speed, timing, distance and power... Thing is he also has a 5th degree black belt in Judo taught by a judoka master from japan which made him better at Judo...He also has a 1st degree black belt in full TKD, was proficient at boxing and was a pro kickboxer..I admit his 1st in TKD is not that impressive...The karate guy said using shorinji ryu karate, my friend could ACCIDENTALLY put anyone in the ICU...Tyson never put anyone in the ICU at full force...Also, cuz shorinji ryu is the ABSOLUTE best form of all karate, all of the belts regardless how much and of all his forms of karate couldn't stand a chance against my friends only his 3rd degree in shorinji ryu....That karate guy said, my friend would never even join ( which he didn't ) the UFC, cuz it would water down everything that made my friend a LEGIT KILLING MACHINE and he could ACCIDENTALLY kill all UFC guys...At only 160, my friend told me, he could easily KO, or just beat the heviest, best heavyweights in the UFC and Bellator/MMA...He trained, learned sparred lifted weights, ( worked out w/ 400 pounds bench , NOT MAX ) etc., fought as a pro from age 5 in 1976 to 2003...Cuz I back up what I say, if ya want, go to '83Marvel KUMITE and you will have my friends TRUTH and also food for thought...God bless :):)
