I can't get get your other video to work -hh-. I have it saved on my computer though. I need to get a codec to watch it first. I'll repost after I see it.
Silva vs Jackson- I actually heard they are supposed to fight again.
man this thread is bangin, not long ago it was nothing.
btw bad news peeps, i broke my anckle last tournament i was in without knowing it half way through a fight and i broke it again a few weeks ago tho it's reset because it was dislocated slightly the whole time i between the fight and the new break.
So i think my chances of going places karate wise this year are down the drain. it's really weak now ( im clicking it atm) and it's funny but sucks at the same time.
Also i herd that if you fill the core of a boxing/kick bag with crushed concrete it becomes more unmovable, givving the user a better resiliance to solid enemys. good to know

for those that follow MMA, do u guyz consider Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira the strongest BJJ fighter today? there's also Rickson Gracie, Royce Gracie, B.J. Penn etc...

Antonio definitely gets my vote for best BJJ fighter today. He is constantly looking for a way to better his position, looking for the submission, and can defend himself from any position on the ground. I have never seen a more technical ground fighter...ever.
Not to mention, Nogueira can't be knocked out. He has shrugged off blows by Crocop and Fedor. I swear that man's chin is made of steel.
I practiced judo years ago, got the brown belt and participated in several tournaments. I got kinda bored with it, being a youngster then, and dropped out. Some years later I took up Kempo and got rather fanatic in that. Brown belt again, until I got a job with bothersome working hours and was not able to continue training frequent enough anymore.
I'll return to it when my job allows it again, and I'm am considering western medieval combat as a new hobby as well.
I've never been a big fan BJJ, in fact I think most forms of grappling are boring. I prefer martial arts that consist primarily of striking. Of course, it's always interesting to watch a grappler and a kicker/boxer go at it.
I don't old sk00l combat for a while it, it was mad.
The sence of tradition ( im irish) was huge for me.
Also weilding a 7 ft scotish broad sword helped

Exactly what I'm looking for.
Did some sword/knife fighting on Kempo, and luckily it focused on quick and nasty kills. But for most of the Asian styles, respect to all those refined Asian sword juggling tricks, but the simple efficiency and brutality of medieval combat seems so much more exiting.
Also the fact that eastern martial arts consist of 'one hit kills" which is good but with western combat the idea is to watch the man bleed to death, pretty impresive if you ask me

SH*T! I didn't know there was a sports forum here!! Wat up dudes? I guess I am coming in the middle of a disscussion but, I am stoked that there are some other martial artists round here. I do Tae kwon do, Wushu, and Arnis (short stick fighting also know as Eskrima). I don't watch tv much so I am a bit out of the loop in that relm of sports tv, but I do watch a little boxing here and there. And I used to be hooked on UFC for a while too. heh.
yeah thanks,my family thinks I am trying to become the net bruce lee. but I told them bruce lee did wing chun!!! So meh, anyway, broadsword huh? Thats kewl!
