No Punch Man: The George Dillman Story

George Dillman is an American karate master known for promoting the 'no-touch knockout' technique. Though this claim has been repeatedly criticized, in truth it overshadows the much more incredible story of George's rise to the top, including his fateful meetings with Bruce Lee and Muhammad Ali.

The early days of UFC was great. It was hilarious to watch guys like him with their spookydoo fighting styles get the snot beaten out of them by brutal street fighters like Tank Abbott.

[@NinjaDildoShow]

*David "Tank" Abbott was not a "street fighter." That was mostly a marketing ploy. "Tank" had a legitimate wrestling background, and trained in boxing for several years prior to his UFC debut.*

[@dfpytwa]

@@NinjaDildoShow Thanks for the info. Another funny note a guy I worked with back in the day while doing structured cabling came into work one day with a black eye and a stitched up lip. He was a big goofy thug who lived in Huntington Beach. He apparently ran into Tank outside of a bar, picked a fight with him, lost and was showing off his injuries. I said to him a saner fan would have just asked him for an autograph. He whipped out a signed polaroid of him and Tank hugging after the fight with himself all busted up and smiling.

Fake news. Dillman hat übger 40 Elite Kämpfe gewonnen

[@mcfry13]

He definitely has a high level of skill compared to the average practitioner and trained a lot when he was younger, but it seems he hit a wall in his own training/skill level and career. To combat this, he used chi/ki as a way to set himself apart and increase the popularity of his brand. At this point he either believes his own lies or lies to protect his ego and prevent the countless lawsuits that would DEFINITELY be right around the corner.

[@AnomalyDocs]

You've hit on this perfectly. My belief is that ki is a useful metaphor for how you envision attacking in a fight, but fighters must be careful not to let it devolve into a Dragon Ball Z-esque fantasy.

[@RRRRRAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH]

@@AnomalyDocs qi can also be thought of as breath and how breath corresponds to movement in a fight.. but not anything supernatural

[@ArtVandelayOfficial]

Chi power is very real though There are masters who can shake huge trucked trees with it in Asia

[@danielabramovitch328]

The first few UFCs pretty much blew away this facade. We didn't see any pressure point knockouts, although in one match, Marco Ruas shin kicked the thigh (common peroneal nerve) so often (~50 times) that the guy's leg lost function and he collapsed. Not the same thing.

[@maximumeffort2729]

[@jakeaarreberg8038]

But if you guys are going to attack George Dillman tell the whole story 1st of all he's a 10th degree black belt in jujitsu he used to teach jujitsu he's a legitimate jujitsu practitioner hes very well known in the 70s, and 80s, 90s in the martial arts community. He was friends with Ed Parker who taught Kenpo karate and he knew Bruce Lee very well. Dillman has been in blackbelt magazine over the years as a practitioner of martial arts. He has a right to be criticized what hes doing now but I wish people would also tell the truth the Dilman is a legitimate practitioner of jujitsu.. Me is a martial artist. I knew of Dilman back in the 90s when I was training in Jujitsu and most people in the martial arts community particularly the practitioners of jujitsu also know of Dillman and his reputation as a legitimate martial artist. So that's all I wanted to clarify. In terms of him defrauding people now I would agree and he's full of BUSHIDO also made up things that aren't true.And clearly hes out for the BUCK there's no doubt we all have to put it in the context hes not a total fraud. I would say hes a partial FRAUD but not a total fraud thank you!.

Btw, please read to the end before jusding what i write now. The no-touch aspect is a joke of course. Those pressure points though, that isnt a lie. I come from Muay Thai, im used to sparring and would say i pack a punch. In the school where i train they rent the rooms to some group of ppl who do this too. Forgot the name atm, something starting with A. I was watching them once, they train right after us. Got invited to test it.... I said "sure, why not" and they did 2 kind of techniques, one at the upper arm and one behind the ears i think, not sure anymore, its been a while. The one on the arm made my arm a lot weaker and electrizised it for a few seconds. Its like when you hit our elbow or knee at some spot where you like an electro shock, nearly sure everyone had this experience in his life. It was something like that. The one on the head was just weak because i said they should take care but i clearly felt bad after them hitting this even weak. Its same feeling, you get something like a small shock whn hitting that nerve. So yes, im very sure there is something behind that. I watched them a bit more and these guys are completely crazy, i can tell you. They knock each other out multiple times in the 2h the lesson takes. This is not a show, i know the ppl since quite a while now, they dont act or lie. This is real. They really knock each other out, what is the reason that they train only once per 4 weeks. Otherwise the nerves take damage. I would never train this crap, its really painful and not good for the body. I cant imagine its good to be knocked out and be reawakened 4 times an evening for years, even if its only once per 4 weeks. This being said, i dont think this works in a fight. What i early saw when watching, these guys stand still when applying the techniques. Near to no movement is made, its only about the pressure points. So 1: in Muay Thai or boxing this anyway wont work because of the gloves. Those spots are hidden somewhat and it has no effect when a big area hits it, it has to be very precise and with 1 finger most of the times (or 2 fingers, but i never saw them hitting with the fist or something). 2: Probably it wont work in a street fight either, because of the movement that is happening. Like mentioned, its very hard to hit those nerves when someone is moving. But surely it would be great to know, as an addition. Maybe there is some situation where you have the time to target the point, or can surprise the opponent in some other way with it. But this as pure fighting technique, i doubt it... So please dont judge this too harsh, the basics do work. But of course no-touch is nonsense.... Im not talking about no touch, i mean hitting the nerves. Every doctor should tell you that this is no joke, physio, massage and those ppl hit those nerves too. But not hitting per se, they massage them. And this is also no joke, i had enough problems with nerves and my back in my life to know that those sessions helped me like no other medicine or whatever. Anyway this is the only cure doctors give you for these problems, trigger therapy. There is nothing else.. Otherwise no German health insurance would pay for it for years. that one is for sure. So of course there is some facts about it. They just use these triggers to do damage, like always in life, the right dosage is a cure, too much is damaging. That is the whole thing.
