Please no more.

i was insulting wolverinefanboys

Taskmaster, Champion, Ogun, Deadpool, Stick, Mantis, Shen Kuei, Black Panther, Daredevil, Elektra, Bucky...

Some others that came to mind.

Oh, and Masterbruce is definitely number 1. He has studied 127 martial arts and trained his body to human perfection.

i dunno is masterbruce is talking true, but stop insulting the guy

No, if we started joking about a 580kg kick...

No one's insulting him! We're all in awe of his AMAZING accomplishments. He's studied bulllshido since he was 4! He has it down to an art form...

Yes, the Wolbereen pwns jokes just need to die.

I'm not a comic book character (at least I'm not aware of) so this may be closed.

In all honesty, I probably will lose to all the street levelers in comics (maybe I can take Robin on a good day, assuming I'm stronger than him and he is too overconfident). But they're just too good and unrealistic, they can dodge machine gun fire, I can't.

I'll be the first one to admit that I'm not the best fighter out there. I'm no where near Bruce Wayne's level in either knowledge of the martial arts or physical prowess. I have however maximized most of my physical abilities as much as my god given genes have allowed, so I'm no slouch either. I'm certainly close to peak human in the real world, not Captain America level peak human.

I am however gifted with extreme intelligence. My mind is my best weapon and I keep it sharp. This is a huge advantage against the dimwitted thugs that I usually encounter. They often underestimate me because I don't look very intimidating, therefore they fight with less effort and less smarts and I take that into my advantage and usually clean their clocks. The 2 or 3 times when I wasn't so lucky, I was able to get out without being too badly injured (just broken nose, black eye, some internal bleeding) but I was prob fortunate.

My success is that I account for every possibility in a situation. Therefore if I do decide to use force in a situation, i already have a contingency plan if I am unable to subdue my enemy.

whatever, guys, believe what you want. Let your mind be as closed and small as it is.

I guess I should've just kept my mouth shut or claimed that I am 5'6 250 lb fat tub of lard with pimples and zits and that I wear coke bottle glasses and metal braces. Nobody would've mocked me or called me a bullshitter then because I would be welcomed into the fanboy club with open arms.

Oooh, top class insult there nvrhadaclue.

You should just leave and make that group.

or you could lay off. I also find it stupid to mess with someone just because they claim to be a good fighter. Wither their lying or not is irrelevant.

its a place to discuss battles between comic book characters no place to be ashamed of being a nobody... but how will youre knowledge of comic books help you in real life?? our martial art-training can help much. so dont insult things beyond our world, as we dont insult yours

Your Karate Chop will not help against a wooden stool or a glass bottle my friend.

i have seen enough already. most of you are nerds with no knowledge of martial arts. because you are used to get beaten up by the bullies doesnt mean that others cant protect them self

So Boxers and wrestlers "Karate Chop"?, you are basically telling me no training > Training. anyone can pick up a stool or glass bottle.

Haha, i'm a nerd?

Oh sorry, i'm a regular day Peter Parker.

I don't need protecting, no-one bullies me.

Retards.

I ma a mstaer of Quack-FU!

masterbruce, just ignore those idiots... they dont understand the codecs of a fighter... they live in their own little world, living with being beaten up by bullies and not being able to defend themselves, and then insult anyone who actually can

Wow, what a great comeback

ichigo, martial arts are much more interesting than you think and much more helphul in life than comics comics are just funny

We are talking about Masterbruce and TurtleSock, they aren't boxers or wrestlers.

When someone comes up with a knife, where do you get yours from? Yourself? Will you jump about pretending to be Batman?

No, your just dead.

ichigo, thats some of the things you learns. grabbing his hand, making him go down on his knees by holding hi hand backwards, and a knee in the face. it has helped me twice

Of course the person with a knife has the advantage but that isnt the point, what if I had a gun? what would the guy with the knife do?....
Might as well not even carry around the knife since someone might have a gun....

I am not saying all "Martial Arts" are useful either there is some stupid useless crap like Ninjitsu which is made up, and all the "Chi" crap.

Your the one sitting there with sticky keyboard keys. ANd you have the nerve to hurl insults and people when your the lamest of the lames. Your freakin Rainbow Raider dude. Get kick a tree Mulcher barefoot.

Why do you care who I am? And again, that really was a great comeback. I'm impressed.

You are toooooo silly. I had to lol and I didn't want to. you guys are such mean people on this board.

Uhhh, no one is making fun of him because he claims he's a good fighter. Tons of people on this board train, as well. Hell, I'm an amateur MMA fighter. I train in American Boxing, Brazillian Jiu Jitsu, and I've tried to cross train with a friend, teaching him ground work in exchange for him helping me shape up my kicks.

What I _don't_ go claiming on random message boards, however, is that I go out every night in a black balaclava and badly painted skull t-shirt to pretend that I'm the friggin punisher.

Or that I glue bat-ears on the top of a baseball cap and pretend that I'm batman, taking down street thugs left and right.

Don't claim we're calling bullshit because he says he knows how to fight...the large majority of people in the world have trained in some style or another. That's no surprise.

Pre OYL Batgirl

Euh so you say you train kung fu???
What form of kung fu???
Because kung fu come's in many forms.

Let me name a few.
Bagua Zhang
Baji quan
Cha Quan
Chang Quan
Fanzi Quan
He Quan
Hong Quan
Hua Quan
Liuhe Quan
Meihua Quan
Mizong Quan
Pigua zhang
Shuai jiao
Taiji Quan
Tan Tui
Tanglang quan
Tongbei Quan
Xing Yi
Yi Quan

So wenn you say you train kung fu, maybe it's best that you name the style of kung fu you train.
Mu dad is teaching me Tai Chi, not so I can learn it in a fight, but Tai Chi is some how relaxing, and keeps me calm.

And Tai Chi is also a form of Kung Fu.

Brazillian Jiu Jitsu for the win. And I agree with the rest of the post too.

Indeed. Plenty of the street fighter crew, too. But I don't really want to get into the less popular comics.

Still, Ryu was a beast.

He indeed was. I always considered Vega the coolest, my personal favourite. Ryu was the toughest fighter though.

Wow, there's a lot more people doing more MA than karate these days. I suppose it's not too abnormal, especially with thinks like UFC and PRIDE becoming more and more popular, and I guess it's not uncommon for parents to enroll their kids in karate or taekwondo at an early age.

Soljer, do you fight in a league? I fight in the AEC in the Kansas City area about once a year, and a friend of mine fights there at most of their events. I'm mainly a Muay-Thai (Muay Chaiya) guy, but I've done Glima (nordic wrestling), greco-roman wrestling, American Boxing, and a little bit of Jiu Jitsu to work on ground submissions. I know a few aikido throws, but I've never really been formally trained in that or any other stereotypical Asian martial arts.

Heh, it sounds like comic book fans are shaping up to be a moderately formidible group from this thread...

I'm pretty good at fencing...

Yeah, I also do ARMA/HACA, done that for a few years, and do SCA stuff in the area. Worthwhile fun if you have the energy and the money.

Nah, I don't regularly compete in any actual league. Rather, I will spar or roll with a lot of the other college students on campus. Also, we'll quite often go to the various Dojo's around the city and roll or spar with students there.

Most of the local dojos like us, but a few (namely a Kyokushin group) kind of give us the cold shoulder when they recognize us as MMA folks.

Yeah, I've noticed some TMA guys acting really "Holier than thou" about MMA.

Well, that is until we knock them out or submit them within the first minutes of a fight. .

Yeah, and most of their instructors won't fight, or even spar, and pitch the whole "Student/Teacher" relationship thing. There was one at a local gym who kept refusing to spar or share any of his 'superior' knowledge to us, and gave us a crap line about it being too deadly for us to understand.

Eventually we had my Muay-Thai have a go at him, since he couldn't use his student BS on him. It was obvious the guy still didn't want to, and was still saying how my instructor was going to embarass himself. When they finally got in the ring, my instructor knocked him out before they even clinched, and the second time, he tried to clinch up, and got knocked out with one elbow.

No doubt, Muay Thai clinches and elbows are vicious. I have several scars around my eyes where a Thai boxer caught me with an elbow.
