Tai Chi Master Runs Away From Xu Xiaodong Student Then Challenges Xu Later

We have the full entire saga of the Tai Chi Master of Pushhands (Tang Lao Tui aka Tang Wenlong) and how he tried to do a wrestling match with a Xu Xiaodong student, and then got scared after a round of grappling and ran away with his crew. I found more footage of what happened after the Tai Chi side left. And while we're at it, let's translate more of the original Tai Chi vs Wrestling event to show you guys more context and hilarity. Let's watch and see all the debates and see who was more correct in their interpretation of what happened. Let us know what you think and how long a match between Xu Xiaodong and Tang Wenlong would last!

We haven't covered Xu in a while, but he's still going strong. His KZbin channel is in the description and endcards. Also, upon reflection, I realize maybe I should just translate this entire event or at least more of the debate about the rules. If I do so, I'll put the extra content on Fight Commentary Extras. Make sure to subscribe to that channel. I remember a part before the match where Xu also explained that they already agreed on the rules and had it in writing. That sounds like a good part to translate and put on Fight Commentary Extras as an accompanying piece. Stay tuned!

Traditional martial artists are ALWAYS shrieking about: "the reason nobody uses our martial art in 'sport fighting' is because there are too many rules! Our martial art was created to fight without rules, where anything goes!" And the moment you challenge them to a fight, they keep trying to impose crippling rules that prevent the other side from doing any techniques on them.

[@FightCommentary]

Yep

[@cashcash5995]

Traditional martial art is good to fight against untrained people like farmers but not against a professional fighter .

[@xao_phan580]

Ignoring the fact that some professional fighters do implement traditional martial arts in their training. It's more the fact that these "masters" spent their life lazing around and scamming instead of putting in the hard work, so at best, they are mildly trained in the basics...at worst...well, they get annihilated in a matter of seconds.

[@abrahamthebewildered1448]

The only issue I have with this is that there were a heap of rules put in place in this bout. Who's to say which side they benefited? I would prefer that both sides agree to no rules bouts. Maybe 1 rule - No killing or permanent maiming (Like gouging out the eyes for example). Then no one could complain about being artificially suppressed.

[@gamrage]

From my experience, tai chi specializes in balance. They teach some good core concepts that can branch out into other martial arts, but I would never use tai chi exclusively as a self-defense martial art. I think lots of martial arts have this weakness. Modern Karate and Taekwondo have this apparent weakness.

[@christate65]

I like that this channel finds cool footage. I’m a little confused by all these challenges and supposed split between “traditional” cma and “new”. One of many examples would be Chen village folks. They fight in kickboxing and other types of tournaments a lot. And do well. This Taiji guy just didn’t realize what he was dealing with cuz he’s gotten older and fatter but not more humble. He may be good at push hands in his bracket but they don’t go for the legs as far as I know and usually don’t even snap the back of the neck down. And he may have never crosstrained. I’m 45 and do some Taiji and Bagua and sometimes boxing and mma and Muay Thai. But I more focus on going slow because that’s what my body type needs. I have read that back in the day Bagua guys usually also did wrestling. That’s good and I know lots of guys that are missing that element in their practice. The younger guy looks to have a good amount of wresting. And IMO wrestling has the toughest conditioning. So trying to wrestle a wrestler is usually gonna lead to a good humbling lesson. These guys are just all up in their feelings.

[@driver3899]

Tai Chi master does not really have good moves because his base and centre of gravity are all over the place. Whatever his top half is doing is irrelevant because of that It looks like he is used to using his weight to dominate rather than technique which is why he is so easy to off balance and take down

[@FightCommentary]

He does lean a lot. You see that in push hands people sometimes. They lean their entire weight on people. That's their secret to Kongjin ;)

[@driver3899]

@@FightCommentary Haha well that's also the secret to getting your balance broken instantly The key foundation of all stand up grappling is to break someone else's balance while not being vulnerable yourself, which is a skill this guy just straight up doesn't have

[@FightCommentary]

Yeah, I think he's used to using his weight to push people around. So he's not got too much skill, but seeing how he moved, he had a lot of potential if he actually humbled himself and tried to get outside his tai chi paradigm. But alas, it's probably never going to happen.

[@driver3899]

@@FightCommentary yeah I agree, I would be willing to bet that with a brush up on some good fundamentals and just a lot of sparring he could be pretty formidable Same with any of the Tai Chi people that actually do practice against real live resisting opponents, I am sure their stuff could work irl Just need good basics and a lot of sparing hours and almost any style will become highly functional

Wrestling involves techniques grabbing the leg. Why take it out and make it purely a push hands match? Why even call it Tai Chi vs Wrestling at all?

[@Erime]

It's to show that each art has its niche. Taichi, although now out of use in martial settings - because the medieval battlefield context is no longer relevant, still fits the human condition well, because it suits the conditions that homo sapiens emerged within - where our bodies fought and competed in life-or-death battlefields - using axes, clubs, swords, and spears of various types. Ground wrestling, meanwhile, is a civic sport - no weapons, no realistic battfield life or death mind set. So, they are different niches and relevant recognition as such.

I'm a big fan of Xu Xiaodong, I'm Canadian and don't speak Chinese but I am subscribed to his channel. It is extremely unfair the treatment he gets just for telling and showing the truth about fighting. He doesn't want people lied to or ripped off and because of that on T.V. in China he has to wear facepaint. He deserves so much better, he's a great person and great fighter.

Best job i've ever seen a tai chi guy do. I'm actually pretty impressed. I think the gripe about knee on belly was legit. Still didn't win. Got dominated

Thai Chi only works for Jet Li movies not in real life. 😂
