Mr Jesse. I suggest you find wing chun fighters who also have adapted their martial arts for sports competition and have actually competed and fought in the ring. The man in this video doesn't do any of us justice. I'd volunteer myself but sadly I have too many injuries to even think about sparring or competing anymore and just practice for my own health and exercise. But, if you look for sport Kung fu fighters in the US that know wing chun, I'm sure you can find them. Good luck sir. Love your videos..keep up the good work and thanks for being a shining light in the martial arts world.

Shoving someone and following up with the head kick is a great move. I try and use it in sparring all the time. Shove and low kick works great too. Way to go guys.

[@anthonyprevost3968]

I used to do the same thing but I’d always get pointed for it. You apparently couldn’t maintain stable footing in a block/punch combo and had to push yourself back rather than the opponent which honestly just seems flawed to me. I mean yeah in certain scenarios I can see how it’d be beneficial but in most I’m gonna wanna shove the opponent away/off balance so I can get in that really good kick on them

As a wise man once said, "No matter what style of martial arts it is, you just have to be real good at it"

[@MtnBadger]

People often underestimate karate and think it's just straight punching and kicking... Nothing could be farther from the truth. It includes "sticky fingers" and lots of parrying techniques as well. This man studies with lots of different practitioners and even had a lengthy session with Seagal (a must see, no matter how you feel about Seagal). He's learned to incorporate many things and is confident and bold (not wild) in his application and subsequently is a very accomplished and dangerous fighter and a terrific teacher. His brother is great, too. 😊

[@jdsloley]

Agree with the parrying especially weapon defense. I took karate for a few years when I was young. Only got to my 4th belt(blue) before I stopped. Should've continued but I can say it's not so much stiff more just straight forward and to the point...not better then Muy Thai imo only because Muy Thai emphasizes power

[@thunderkatz4219]

It also depends on what style

[@puchibamba4801]

What style of karate uses chi sao sticky hands or fingers? Please elaborate because I’ve never seen this before in any styles I’m familiar with. I know for sure we use blocks and parries and slapping or scooping blocks but sticky fingers like chi sao kung fu drills never heard of that before.

[@MtnBadger]

@@puchibamba4801 I experienced it in a Chuck Norris, UFAF Tang Soo Do school and under a traditionally trained Shotokan master. He grew up in the martial arts academy in Okinawa and was a black belt by 9 (a black belt actually being truly "in possession of the basics," not the ultimate goal in some "Tāk Mī Dō" [take my dough] studio 😉). The application and style can differ but in the advanced levels, it's there. Tang Soo Do uses it well.

[@lucacorona6681]

The other guy is a little stiff, he's not using all his body, AND most important he's not closing the distance, which is the real target for WC. It's a common mistake made by a lot of us due to lack of proper sparring time. Unfortunately WC is not well represented online...like at all.

[@powerdonut]

I was shocked at how he barely seemed to try to go forward lol. My teacher drilled going forward no matter our move into us.

[@JubairAlarm-f9m]

[@HEMA-NRW]

Wing Chun can work when you move forward aggressively, closing the distance and robbing your opponent of his balance. But this can only be achieved through intensive sparring.

[@ZATennisFan]

The mutual respect is great to see.

[@ZATennisFan]

At that level it truly is more about the prsctioner than the art...

[@charliepenguingaming]

As someone who’s contact constantly came out during competition, the contact coming out is the reason Jesse won definitively

[@Neo-jk9qs]

If you watch you can see our wing chun Practitioner pull back on a few eye/ throat strikes. I think, full contact, he actually might have won 4 out of 7 of these rounds. This is why wing chun is banned in mma, it's hard to train out the eye and throat strikes.

[@charliepenguingaming]

@@seraphwithatank6535 it was just a joke that I hoped all contact wearers might relate to. In reality, I’m sure most people will just pull out the other contact and keep on competing. The only thing impaired is your ability to see the score cards 😂
