This is great stuff..I kinda figured all Master Po was doing was reminding him that he needs to dodge sometimes. This is funny though, because in a recent article, Aaron said that Logan wasn't nearly as good as Chi or Fist in terms of Martial arts ability, yet, he can beat them because of his years of experience and the fact that "he's been in every kind of fight". I was skeptical of this at first but it actually fits together well. Fighting ability is different than MA ability - Captain America is a good example of this - he doesn't know nearly as many different techniques as Iron Fist, but because of the SS serum enabling him to apply his technique better, he is still able to win. He is credited with actually coming up with his own fighting style I believe. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Here's the article which Aaron states Logan is inferior in terms of MA ability yet would beat Chi and Fist anyway.

It doesn't really add up to me - I think that Logan's superior skill comes from him being able to slend all that he's learned from fighting and his natural ability. The idea that Fist or Chi are superior in training is bogus since Logan has been training hardcore for at least 100 years in more than just Kung Fu. Logan also trained hard with the X-men and his brainwaves were compared while fighting - he is a master at beating oponents with strategy. That skill alone is more valuable than any fancy kick or punch.
So anyway, he beat the Black Dragon Death Squade using his skills so I'm happy with that. I just don't like what Aaron said in the article. Makes MA ability look inferior to street fighting and "fighting dirty". But whatever, Wolverine looks very skillful in the ending of Manifest Destiny which, even though seems like a contradiction to Aaron's take on Wolverine, is present nontheless. Can't complain too much.
Great ending to a series that had me really worried.
