TaiChi is mild based martial art. What that mean is that they teaches you the basic of everything, but only the basic. So, Tai Chi in the ring is all using basic techniques that is going to be pretty hard. If you are fighting free style and just adding those technique to your free style fight you be fine. But if you are fighting in accordance to a style, that is hard. I used to do Taekwondo. While doing it I also learn some mild based martial art. I don't think I will do too well using Mild based against a professional fighter.

I do not much about the fighters. But my advice to the boxer would to focus on the fundamentals: guard up, chin down, throw jabs to gauge the distance and throw straights with the power hand. And depending on the boxer's style of fighting or ability, I would tell him to "march down" his Tai Chi opponent and use his footwork to close the distance and work in his hooks and uppercuts. Especially when the his opponent's hands were down. Do not be confused and simply put pressure on him. But props to the Tai Chi opponent for staying cool under pressure and picking his shots. As well as his variety of striking techniques including the knees, kicks, and takedown attempt. His training in other martial arts truly shows.

I've done a fair amount of tai chi myself, I would have landed a lot of front kicks early on. The boxer had poor distance control and often got himself caught in the clinch. When someone starts wailing hooks, uppercuts, and overhands best TaiJiQuan technique is the front heel kick down the open centre. Worked great in a sanshou fight I had against a choy li fut fighter. Against that choy li fut guy, he often left his left ribs open after punching so I altered the taijiquan front kick into a roundhouse kick. Stepping to my left and catching his right haymaker punch thing (they love those in choy li fut) then fanned my hands out to clinch my right hand to his neck and deliver a right round house kick to the left ribs. This way I was stepping across to throw the kick with all my mass while simultaneously blocking the strike. Good tai chi practitioners have to be intelligent, its evidently not about being tough and externally powerful. I only recommend it if you find a good teacher and have prior experience in other styles.

Would like to see with a boxer who has same reach, basically since boxer is shorter he is trying to swing a hook as he rushes forward, if he could keep doing jab-cross the tai chi guy wouldn't be able to stand cool like that, i mean tahi chi guy is still getting punched but he can crouch and hug which keeps the damage to minimum and mostly to the body Edit: the boxer doesnt keep "eating" the jabs, the jabs doesnt pass his guard. But what he should do is instead of just blocking he should slip and do a counter punch since tai chi guys hands are down he would actually "eat" every counter pucnh and the reach difference would be solved

OMG! Why are his hands DOWN?! That is a dangerous stance to take with a boxer! Looks like his Tai chi needs more development!

Best tai chi I have ever seen, I mean don't get me wrong tai chi is not good, but at least this guy threw hits and used head movement. Unlike many other tai chi trainers.

I’m so confused, tai chi is grappling based martial art; it’s focus isn’t striking... _Like that’s how I learned it at least..._ Why did this guy let the rules not allow grappling? Like this tai chi guy seems a too bit confident, why didn’t he even start getting serious earlier?

Yeah tai chi is more kicking and grappling. Rules sucked.

I am James F JR... I Love All Martial / Pugilistic Arts. Tai Chi does have Combat applications I do not understand why this guy isn't on the Offensive. So Far I like the Boxer. I think he is not Throwing Jabs because he is finished feeling the Gut out. Also he might be trying to reserve energy. Now, the Tai Chi guy is on the Attack. It is Getting more interesting now.

Would have liked to have seen more kicks out of the Tai Chi Chuan (TCC) guy. Every form has front-loaded ball kicks (or "teep"), great for an opponent who is staying too far out, like the boxer is. Some abdomen shots would've been good; TCC has a bunch of those. No grappling makes TTC much less effective, but I would've like to have seen less countering and more entering/exiting footwork. TCC practitioner should be getting their opponent into the wall, and letting out short range punches. Having a strat for an environ like this must be challenging, props to them both for putting it all in there.

The boxer is not throwing jabs because most local boxing clubs in Vietnam are not very good on teaching technique and strategy. The better ones that have good coaching are usually much more exclusive than what's accessible to the general populace.

something that i noticed in the fight... boxer trow strong punches but he gassed faster than tai chi... not sure if tai chi either have strong chin or he makes this head turn the moment he gets hit by a punch cuz he looks fresh... boxer really dont trow straight punches and he also trow less hi-low combination like jab to the head, straight to the body then hook to the head...

I came here expecting to see my style in action (tai chi). I felt like he was going to win before even watching the video. The first couple of rounds I felt like he was playing with the boxer, I even kept saying "stop playing with him!". Then I I felt like the reason he was fighting like that in the first place was because he didn't really know what he was doing even though he was pulling off some of my moves, badly, but he managed. and Then he got 'serious' I still feel like he could've done better. I don't wanna say he's a 'one hit pony' but compared to me he is.
@akumabakemono14473 жыл бұрын
I don't get it: If we think in Taichi as a combative art, is not a straiking but a grappling art, so why you would use it like some kind of "striking kung fu style"? I think the first thing practitioners must do to make their TMA work, it's to understand for what your art is made for and for what no. The second thing they should do is to take lessons of some full contact striking art (like Box or Sanda). Learn how to fight, how to get hit and how to hit, how angles work, etc. Then you can take all this experience and adding it to your TMA. So for example, if you do Wing Chun, don't waste your time fighting against WC attacks, but against jab, cross, hooks, 1-2 combinations, etc.
