I learn judo, karaté and aïkido from Bond

But most streetfight are mostly bare knuckle, what if you do a shoulder roll and they just smash into your shoulder joint. Would hurt a lot wouldn't it. How can't you counter that

According to a student of his ,Tegner took a few lessons from a french Canadian with limited knowledge of the Charlemont method and Chausson, the bulk of the book is modified karate and his own ideas! There is no T stance in La Boxe Francaise, Savate,Chausson, or Dans La Rue! Also none of the above uses the edge of the foot or the ball of the foot because the arts were designed to be used when wearing boots!

I had this book, but lost it in a flood

I think some owners do things to keep students happy and paying without really looking into if those things are something that actually benefit the students and themselves. Also, I think that some instructors have a huge ego and feel like they know everything. You can't teach what you don't know. It's like having your students grapple and not know how to grapple. I've actually seen this in two different schools. What your former instructor did was quite dangerous because their are some really good and properly prepared MMA competitors.

Nice book collection 👊🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Always looking forward to those book reviews!

Thanks, Joe. Relax, rejuvenate, and come back stronger.

Excellent upload. Thanks. 😊

I have this book and highly recommend it!

Quality beats quantity. We appreciate your dedication.

*waits impatiently*

Ever considered doing something like an Amazon wish list where people could purchase a specific book or something? I have no idea how reasonable that is or how that would work though.

Cool topic

I'm not sure how familiar you are with wing chun but I have been asking different instructors from different lineages why some pivot on the heels and some on the balls of the feet there must be a best way of doing this but there seems to be no consensus would you be willing to make a video on the subject thanks and keep up the fascinating videos

Nice

Nice

The pro-yeet community approves. 👍🏽🥋🤼‍♂️

Thanks for the video. He was my sensei as a youth. Still miss him.

I thought that it was Greco Roman that was used in this film

Leg locks, leglocks and more leg locks!

I've been subbed to both modern martial artists and fighting words for a while, both are some of my favourite martial arts channels out there.

So the combos are the highlight of this book? I see, great work as usual!

I like this topic, makes me want to watch green hornet

Grading a fight scene from a movie for realism sounds unreasonable

Wow! I love Yori Nakamura. I’ve been trying to find this book since I saw it online. Where did you get the pdf? Good review as usual.

Very hard book to find. If found it is very expensive!

There’s nothing wrong with feeling like a fighting style is part of your culture if a Chinese person thinks they should only teach and learn kung fu from other Chinese people that’s their right. A Japanese person could feel like karate and judo is their culture and should stay that way

Cringiest thing to me is how people are still debating if Bruce Lee who is dead could beat up Mike Tyson

You just answered the ever ending question of what Catch is. Thank you

The submission moves were taken out of amateur wrestling so before this was wrestling just Catch Wrestling? What were the takedowns?

Good stuff, thanks!

Also this is hilarious th-cam.com/video/XRqLzWQK-vU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=obyaA4sQXVGNuifs

You would think martial art nerds would obsess over wars in history instead of fake movie fights all I see on reddit is which actor they like more in the cheesy kung fu movies

This popped up on my recommended list seemingly randomly. Coincidentally, I wrote a review of this book all the way back in 96/97 for a fencing periodical called VFQ. Interesting to hear the perspectives you had. There weren’t any books out back then that I’d call fit for beginners. I compared this book to Nadi’s old treatise “On Fencing” and took a bit of flak for giving it a favorable nod. There were some other books out back then, but even the better ones were a bit opaque if one wasn’t already familiar with the lingo. I think the tongue in cheek view he gives at the beginning of the book is a barely veiled critique of fencing club culture. I remember the author talking about getting some nasty treatment when calling around to clubs. Still a valid criticism today, sadly. Nice video. Hope you do more on fencing.

Something i am interested in, is what might have been the list of kata itosu tought or might have known.

I think the first edition of this book is totally different that the later versions

Didn’t really like this movie

Also, Don F Draeger did another book on a single martial art- The Phoenix Eye Fist.

"Tj" in Indonesian before the spelling reform was pronounced as "ch". It is now spelt with the letter "C' *ejaan baru reform)

I pretty much agree. I'm a huge fan of Geoff, but on revision this book left something to be desired. I think it works best (as you say) if you already have some knowledge and want to know which throws/sweeps have the highest success rate outside a night club, as opposed to on a mat. I can't remember if it's my copy of Judo or one of the other in the series, but aside from the misspelling of some moves, there is a totally blank page in the middle of the book.

Thanks for this. Duncan was my Bujinkan teacher for three years leading up to 2000. Didn't know he'd written a book.

Hatsumi used to be top dog, but a couple of years ago he kind of split the nine styles to give the nine grandmasterships to nine individuals (one each).

The most common origin story that I've seen for the 'most fights go to the ground', is that the Gracies found the statement in a police report and used it to help sell their ground focused system. However, the story continues that the quote was taken out of context. Supposedly the police report was referring to arresting/cuffing techniques wherein an object surface (car hood, wall, etc) was used as an aid. But the ground is always present (Gods help you if it isn't), even when cars and walls aren't. Plus the added bonus of getting the perp off their feet. So cops took most perps down to the ground. But the quote, in context or out, worked, and still haunts dojos everywhere.

Jesse Enkamp said savate moves come from the sword?

"southpaw is not a style" *Insert apoplectic southpaw noises here* Sir. Acquire and name your seconds. I require satisfaction.😂
