Here is my claim that Frank Dux (and I deliberately pronounce it like "Ducks", because **spits) is a fraud: 1. Ninja (忍者) is the acronym for the proper term, "Shinobinomono" (忍びの者), which literally translates to, "Hidden Person". It was an official government of Japan (during the Edo Period) euphemism for what is also known as the "Gardener Society" (お庭番 Oniwaban) which was founded by Ieyasu Tokugawa, in 1607, as a spy network to keep tabs on his vassal Daimyo. Basically the 16th century equivalent to a secret service. "忍者" did not get the modern "Ninja" pronunciation until the 1950's. Prior to the 1950's, it was still read as "Shinobinomono". *I doubt seriously that he was part of the Japanese secret service, which the Oniwaban actually still exists.* 2. Shinbinomono/Ninja were spies, and not fighters. Now, some samurai were Ninja, but not all ninja are warriors. 3. If you read the actual treatises of Shinobinomono from antiquity (which are available at The Tokyo National Museum", *NO PART Of Shinobi-Jutsu (Not ninjutsu which is a western creation) HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH FIGHTING!* The treatises has more to do with how to blend in with the environment... And by that, more like how to make something like a ghillie suit to hide in tall grasses, how to pretend to be a gardener or masseuse or a cook, in order to gain intelligence. Now, most people who worked for the government had to learn some kind of combat skill, but often that is cart before horse, because most people put in government positions in feudal Japan, and early modern Japan, *WERE SELECTED FROM VARIOUS DOJO, AND VETTED BEFORE RECRUITMENT.* anything other than this can not be proven and is utter crap 4. There is a fighting method known as Taijutsu (体術 which means "Body Methods") which is synonymous with both Jujitsu and Kempo, but is less of an umbrella term of martial arts than Bujutsu (武術 means "War method", and generic term meaning "Martial Arts"), which is often confused with the western concept of Ninjustsu. The reality is, Taijutsu became dominant after 1605, when Tokugawa banned civilian ownership of weapons, without Title (of being a samurai) or license from a samurai. Before this point, anyone can own a Katana or a gun. After the end of the Sengoku era, and at the beginning of the Edo period, Tokugawa noted how a rag tag of civilians with weapons can rise against the government, thus he banned weapons (The first known widespread gun ban in history). Because of all of this, Taijutsu such as Judo, sumo, karate, and Kempo became the popular arts learned by civilians, and any exemplars are selected for further training to become government officials. That all being said, *NO WAY IN HELL DID DUX KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT JAPANESE MARTIAL ARTS, THE HISTORY OF MARTIAL ARTS, AND IS A COMPLETE FRAUD!*
If 11 year old me saw this video when I was obsessed w bloodsport in the 90s I wld havebeen so bummed. I really thought frank dud was an American hero lol
I’m so hurt you would say such things about Frank Dux. Just for your insolence, I’m gonna start my own brand of martial arts by going to the mountain and carve my clans identity into a tree. That will fix your wagon! I dig your your videos, what trips out is that people still the world is round. lol
I love Frank pretending to break the board with a spear hand at 2:21 by quickly switching to a palm strike and back to a spear hand after it breaks. He has no shame.
He's a paper tiger he bought a belt and thinks that gives him credibility besides who in their right mind would say vic Moore made them when he's just as much a phoney claiming he beat Bruce Lee
It’s not him. It’s you. He moves so swiftly that our puny eyes can’t see it correctly. He has to slow it down so that we won’t figure out what’s really going on. He‘s really an alien from another planet and is here scouting earth for a human fighter that is good enough to compete in the Super Galaxy Kung Fu Tournament that beings travel from other galaxies to fight in. You didn’t hear it from me though. It‘s quadruple black belt super top secret.
Joking aside but an improper palm strike to any board can screw up your hand. I know personally cause I still have issues with my forefinger But you can tell he switched strikes lol
Frank Dux is almost certainly the greatest martial arts fraud of all time. I’ll cite a # of examples: 1. He never served in Vietnam; he enlisted after the war was over. 2. He was never deployed overseas-ever. 3. He received no specialized training-ever. 4. Dux would have us believe that the Government bypassed all the US special forces in order to send him, at 19, on secret missions, I guess due to his Ninja training. 5. He was never awarded the Medal of Honor, or any other medals, as per his official military records. 6. There’s a picture of him wearing the Army Medal of Honor. Dux, in fact, served just over four months active duty in the Marine Corps., not the Army. He claimed the military never explained why. 7. The FBI actually wanted the US Attorney to charge ‘The Secret Man’ with wearing fake military medals, which is against the US Code, aka Stolen Valor. 8. He was, however, referred to a psychological evaluation, for expressing ‘flighty & disconnected’ ideas. 9. He claims to have been appointed as a Russian Army Captain. Say what? 10. He never fought in the Kumite, but, probably, has some, minimal, martial arts training. 11. In fact, no Kumite never even happened in the Bahamas, according to Bahamas’ Minister of Sports. 12. The video of him ‘fighting’ in the Kumite was actually a French martial artist named Philippe Cadoret, competing in Taiwan, in 1986. 13. Mr. Cadoret’s son contacted Dux and threatened a lawsuit, unless he immediately removed the videos, which he subsequently did. 14. He claimed to have sold the sword, which he won at the Kumite, in order to rescue a boatload of children, who had been abducted by pirates. Yes, he actually said this! 15. The International Fighting Arts Association, which allegedly sponsored the Kumite, listed Dux’ home address as its international HQ. 16. His Kumite trophy was purchased at a local CA store. 17. No, Dux is not a Ninja. 18. Two friends, Richard Robinson, and Richard Bender, whom Dux asked to lie about having witnessed Dux’ fight in the Kumite, subsequently admitted lying for him and having fabricated the entire story. 19. He defeated 66 people in a tug of war! Yes, he actually said this! 20. He bilked hundreds, possibly thousands, of students out of their hard - earned money. NOT OK. 21. He never worked for the CIA, either directly or indirectly. 22. He claimed to have been personally recruited by the CIA Director, William Casey, in a bathroom. Yes, he actually said this. 23. Dux claims to have been a hit man for the CIA. If even remotely true, he’d never, ever disclose such. 24. Both the CIA & two US Army Generals, actually publicly called out his BS, which is rare for them to do. 25. The ‘Secret Man’, if real, would never publicly discuss his secret agent, black ops assignments. 26. His stories continually change; lies beget lies. 27. Dux has NO background in intelligence. Zip. 28. He claimed to have been gouged by a bayonet in the stomach on one such mission. 29. He claimed to have been recruited to assassinate Steven Segal. Say what, again? 30. His instructor never existed. He got the name Tiger Tanaka form a James Bond movie ‘You Only Live Twice’. 31. Zane Frazier, a legitimate MMA fighter and a real martial artist, body slammed Dux over a dispute regarding money. 32. Dux sued Jean Claude Van Damn, the LA Times, and Soldier of Fortune magazine for liable - all unsuccessful, frivolous lawsuits. 33. Dux allegedly challenged JCVD to fight on the ledge of a 20 - story building. 34. He’s fairly intelligent and is a very convincing liar. 35. Dux now wears dark glasses and the right side of his mouth droops. I feel he probably suffered a stroke. For this, I truly feel sorry for him. But he’s an ultimately a FRAUD & a LIAR.
Don Shipley says it best, “If you’d lie about military service, what wouldn’t you lie about?”. Basically you can’t outright believe anything the guy says.
"it's Classified" "it was extremely secretive, and underground" "I was sworn to secrecy" "I took the oath of omerta to NEVER speak of those details" "There will never be records of that, it was a secret mission" "At the time it was illegal in every country, nobody was supposed to know about it" ... Then how have you been running your mouth about all this to me for the past 20 years?
@Shidoshi578 Well, I was actually hand selected for UDT training because I was a black belt in Karate... And at that time, oh that was years ago, you know you just did what you were told, so after that it was mostly classified stuff.@@Shidoshi578
Frank Dux is real and not Fake.He is not a Hollywood actor and never acted.Frank Dux knocked out Rorion Gracie when Rorion invited him in his Dojo for fight in 1992.

At least Steven Seagal has won numerous championships. The McDonald's Memorial Cup. The Golden Corral Annual All You Can Eat Butterfly Shrimp competition. Last but not least the 24 Hours of Beer Battered Onion Rings hosted by Buffalo Wild Wings.
When my father got sick I found his discharge papers. Turns out he is a decorated Marine, Viet Nam war. He thankfully recovered and I asked why he never told us that he had medals and he said "Real men don't need to tell stories."
My dad was the same way. All I knew was 3rd gen farmer in Iowa lol...he wasn't military, but medals and awards (A LOT) found for sports. He was not big, 5'9 160lb "monster/rover" in football and very good in track and basketball...baseball he was just ok, but played... ANYWAY...after i discovered that stuff he pulled out some black and white football games on vhs.....i was shocked, again, he wasn't a big man, but had little care for his own body, he was an absolute missile!! Once I got older and went to the bars, everyone talked about him. Sports and not quite as neat, his fighting in his 20s! Lol..new stories and from others was always neat though! The best part, great father and my best friend...turns 70 here soon, I do know, I'm gonna be a mess when he passes! Thank you to your father for his service!
That’s because your dad is a man not an entertainer. Your dad knows what’s what. I’m so proud of my dads service but I know nothing about it except the names of his friends, they have stayed close even after my dads passing. Semper Fidelis means something to them.
We had a similar experience with my wife's grandfather. He was drafted in '42 and fought in the Pacific Theatre until Japan surrendered. When he was 93, we found paperwork that he had received medals including a Silver Star (which actually meant something back then). When I told her grandfather about what we had found, he opened up about a lot of experiences he had while fighting the Japanese. He had never shared those details before and it was mind-boggling to hear, firsthand, what happened to the 'island-hoppers.'
My favorite Frank Dux story is the one where he asked his friend to drop him off outside of the woods one day. When he was dropped off he was carrying a duffel bag and gave the friend instructions to pick him up in a couple of days. When the friend came back to pick him up, Frank came out of the woods without the duffel bag, holding a trophy that was around the same size as the duffel bag, and claimed he had won the trophy in a secret martial arts tournament in the woods.
No lie I scored a 188 in Bowling the best score I have ever achieved in Bowling, I was over Joyed: Never came close again: The TRUTH is I average almost a 140 points in Bowling: These Grand Masters of Martial is top notch !!!
Dux is a lucky man when you think about it. There are thousands upon thousands of BS artists from the 70's and 80's who talked a lot of crap and people fell for it. But he talked his way into having a movie made about his BS and achieved a level of fame that would make Count Dante proud. Love your videos man!
I met Frank Dux back in 2013 at a Martial arts convention in NYC when I was training with the AK system of Bujutsu Do and I feel he was very selective of what he was honest about. One lie that he actually admitted was a lie was him being an extra Actor in Highlander but as I listened to him more and compared his mindset with that of Other Martial artists that I met like Cary takgawa and Benny Urquidez James Lew Master Eric Lee Michael Jai White Cynthia Rothrock and Don Wilson( they where all at the Action Magazine awards in Atlantic City, except for Frank Dux).He seemed to inflate himself in some areas and my teacher said he comes off phony with his sunglasses( it gave a Johnny Cage Vibe) but now after all these years of his life being broken down, the suspicions were true from my teacher. Bullshido at its finest
Listen. I’m tired of people calling frank a fake. He’s absolutely real. I watched him fight the kumite. I fought in that same kumite. I was 12 and had to defeat 5 ninjas and do the ken hock. I hit the rear of the truck and the power runs down and blows out the engine. So stop. He’s a damn hero in the cia. Secret stuff. He defeated me with a 790 spinning back flip hook heel kick. Now that I’m a grown and a member of the red rag society I challenge you frank. My teacher tonacho cheezo and your teacher has long been enemies dating back 1509 years. I’ve have now mastered bootycon and ninjitsu along with crackdo. I’m no longer 12 frank. I have mastered the 1340 degree kick. The Deli lama has declared me grandmaster of all. Not the dali la but a lama named deli. I’m ready frank. Let’s do it. I’m 12 sash dootyjo. Put up your dooks dux. Bruce lee wrote a letter after teaching him skeet con do. Stop ducking me.
This is probably one of the best investigations into Frank dukes on TH-cam fantastic job.Thank you so much for sharing very well done I so much enjoyed this
Sir, you have an amazing voice. Hollywood should recruit you for cartoon character voices. You are simply an excellent orator. Great presentation skills in your videos.
@@MortonT1958 I found this on the net to explain: In order for Frank Dux to knockout 56 men in a row in one tournament to win, the number of people in the tournament will have had to be almost infinity. Every time you want to add a round to a bracket you have to double the number of competitors. 64 competitors would fight 6 rounds and 128 would have to fight 7 rounds to come out on top. And so on, and so on, and Dux is a liar, and so on…
Unless you had an all vs all mixed with direct elimination in a very weird and totally not practical format, since either the number of participants or fights would be massive hence impossible to organize, that Is total bs
Frank Dux won the kumite by using the power of the chi taught to him by George Dillman. Capcom later stole this technique and renamed it the “hadoken.”
Prince is probably the best martial arts education channel AND commentary about martial arts personalities... His research is exhaustive,, and he has imo a centered presentation style where he examines both the positive and negative facts...💯👍
I trained with Frank a long time ago in the San Fernando Valley. I liked him, I saw some of his fights and he was very fast and very good. This was before MMA but I hear stories about his MMA encounters. Frank was a good guy, I enjoyed hanging out with him.
Don't come on here and lie for Dux. The guy had no fights and would lose to even a slightly skilled martial artist. He would probably lose most street fights with average guys who don't even know how to fight.
He also defeated Shao Kahn, Goro and Shang Tsung, in a single day, to save the EarthRealm in Mortal Kombat! He's negotiating with Johnny Cage to play him in the movie! 😂😂😂😂 He also defeated The Rock AND Stone Cold in the SAME night to become the Undisputed Champion!
Damn Bro!! You went in at the end!! Awesome episode! Yeah, " That guy" was a guy I worked with that bought a $3000 Les Paul and couldn't play when I said, " Ok, play me something"...and crickets!! Peace Bro!!
When I was child I believed it all after seeing Blood Sport. It said it was based on the true life of him. But I also believed in Jim “Hacksaw” Dugan and The Junk Yard Dog.
Sorry... But as a Martial Artists of 30 years, I disagree. While Ive only seen a few clips of Frank... he moves very awkwardly. Seagal is Fluid, Fast, Accurate, and Powerful. Everything Ive seen Seagal do, is Masterclass level in Output. As far as "Story Telling" goes, thats a whole different thing. Both of them are Malignant Narcissists.. and Narcissists are known for making up stories, exaggerating things, and or outright telling lies (And far worse). But Despite the Narcissists lies... they do tend to have developed some actual depth of skillsets. The level of development, is really depending on the individual... as some Narcissists are extremely lazy. Yet others... like Bruce Lee... worked his tail off, 24x7.
He is actually worse than Seagal in terms of stories . Lets see he won 300 matches in a kumite . He worked for the CIA on missions , was awarded the medal of honor . Broke bulletproof glass with his hands , claims he can dodge a bullet . Has brain tumors from so many blows to the head taken . Couldn't be choked out by top BJJ guys . Claims Bruce Lee said to his teacher he was faster than him . Beat up Bob Wall when he was only 14 , and was taught by a Ninja Master named Tanaka . No he's even above Seagal in crazy stories .
You forgot to mention when sixteen year old Frank Dux was secretly training ninjutsu with Tiger Tanaka in Japan, he had to turn down his acceptance to Star Fleet Academy and break up with the beautiful, highly intelligent Mary Sue. She was naturally devastated, but Dux is such a selfless person and it was all a carefully calculated personal sacrifice. His ninja vanishing allowed Mary Sue to eventually become top of her class and save Earth from Klingons while Dux stayed behind to dismantle criminal syndicates from the shadows!
Frank Dux is an underrated comedian. He’s the Leslie Nielsen of the martial arts world. He doesn’t even need to construct jokes. He just needs to speak with sincerity to provide entertainment.
I studied and taught Martial Arts. I saw a lot of delusional people who thought they were going to go out and fight everyone who made them mad. I feel humility is a key in learning Martial Arts. I spent many evenings in class working on a section of kata that I couldn't get down. I was lucky to have a sensei that was willing to help me. Cool thing was after I learned the whole kata then he taught me how to actually apply it in a real world situation.
This is what I'm currently doing, except it's all through video until I can get Sifu over to teach a workshop. Once I get the form down, I have almost 4 hours of video showing potential applications of every move in the form.
It seems Frank Dux took the old saying, "Never let the truth get in the way of a good story" to the extreme... but hey, Bloodsport was definitely entertaining. So for that, I thank him for his turbo bullsh!t.
Frank Dux is a legend. I remember watching blood sport with my dad when it came out and watching the end with all of his records I thought “whoa, amazing ……. wait how did they time his fastest knock outs??” All of his claims are so outlandishly ridiculous he’s a legend among con artists. He’s grade a entertainment 😂😂😂
I am 300 years old and am the ultimate master of all martial arts. No can stand before me, my students count amoung them Steven Seagal, Frank Dux, count Dante and count Chocula, but I am humble and do not say of my skills and knowledge but soon you will all bow down before me.
The best thing dux done,is lies so deeply in to the kumite legend ,that blood sport was made,which is not as good as enter the dragon exetra, but influenced me as a child in need of MA,but his ridiculous mortal kombat suit is hilarious ,master of bs, I hate liars, great video bro, UK British kendo association
I've seen a few people mention Mortal Kombat. I haven't heard Dux make the claim that he inspired Mortal Kombat, but I would have a good laugh if he did, especially after hearing the creators talk about the process of making Mortal Kombat - they were trying to make a video game that was like playing your way through a 70s kung-fu movie.
The way I laughed when you said " not a shred of evidence to back this up" which is actually true there's no evidence😅I feel like Dux is one of those guys that watched so much kung fu movies when he was young had a wild fantasy and decided to grow up and put all his fantasy in his head to reality, I mean reality in his own head 😅I don't believe he even is a solid martial artist I feel like he so passionate about martial arts that he never entered an official school he taught himself and got a little bit good and had enough martial arts training to con his way up to success
In today's world a Frank Duks couldn't happen. All veterans keep their eyes peeled for stolen valor these days and with the internet, our vision reaches very far. And I would bet that true martial artists know what they're seeing when they see it. So a guy like that can talk all he wants to and even write a book, but if his pile of bullspit raises him high enough to start talking about movie deals he'll wind up falling on his face. But that's just _my_ opinion.
Didn't work back then either. At the time the FBI wanted him charged and 2 Generals called him out on it. As old mate above said, people will believe anything if they want to despite having proof. Hell there are people to this day that still defend Dux. It's crazy.
People spew lies and utter nonsense in every aspect of our daily lives..... Politicians and priests, faith healers and vets who can't name the unit they served in..... there's even a "museum" that claims dinosaurs were on a boat with people during a global flood that no one noticed. People will believe anything said by people who say everything.
Frank Dux made a autobiography inspired by every action movie that were popular at that time. So he is the real life 1. Daniel Larusso from the Karate Kid 2. Bruce Lee from Enter the Dragon 3. Rambo 4. American Ninja 5. James Bond He is also a little bit of Captain Jack Sparrow, and John Holmes Imagine if the MCU was a thing back then? He would have been some supersoldier experiment who got to lift Mjolnir
Same - I didn't get much sleep the night before I flew out to Bahrain to my ship. I had to room with an HM who watched an IED take out a bunch of his Marines. Dude was screaming in his sleep all night.
We all have to agree that Frank dux is mentally ill. He craves attention and will do anything to get it, even now. He wants to be seen , even if it means ridicule it seems. The best thing to do for poor old Frank is just to ignore him. I'm sure we have all met that one guy who claims has done it all, no matter where you been or what you have done, he's done it, he's been there and all better than you. LOL. These people always tend to be a joke and unfortunately bullied. We all know his claims are pure nonsense, just best to ignore him, he is a legend in his own mind.
Frank Dux claimed he offered to fight me "Blindfolded" but I refused. Why would any Professional World Champion Kickboxer be afraid to fight a "blindfolded" opponent? He is mentally ill....
There were 9 UFC tournaments before Dux turned 40. He was 37 when it began. Several UFC legends fought well into their 40s. A few fought in their 50s. Those early matches featured martial artists from most major fighting styles and very few rules, which was exactly what Frank Dux claims was his area of expertise. Why didn't he ever fight in the UFC? A guy with Frank's supposed ferocity and competitive spirit for no holds barred fighting would've found it impossible to resist what those early UFC fights were offering. There's just no way in hell that the ultimate badass, who supposedly once went AWOL from the military, because he simply couldn't resist the temptation to fight, wouldn't have somehow found a way to enter at least one UFC match in the early to mid-90s. It's inconceivable.
The kumite & all that was kind of cool when I was 12 in the early 80s. It was a fun fantasy world & idea. All in all it didn't really hurt anyone and no one really believes it now. This was back when if you needed a cheat code for a video game you had to call all your friends as there was no internet. And we had entire magazines full of innuendo & adventure. I think it was more of a sign of the times.
He claimed he couldn't compete as was hit by Zane Frazier , who hit him with brass knuckles in a sucker punch . Which is nonsense . But he's the same person who also claims the UFC was named after him , the ultimate fighter ! Rorian Gracie has said he never even heard of the guy , when he named the UFC .
The funny thing is, "kumite" literally just means "meeting hands" in Japanese. But it's really nothing more than "sparring" in English. Leaving aside ludicrous claims of some ultimate underground fighting championship, which anyone who knows the real history of martial arts in Japan knows is utter BS, the mere idea that it was called "The Sparring" makes it sound ridiculous. You could get away with this BS in the 60s and 70s, but not today.
Watch "Hidalgo" starring Viggo Mortensen. He played Frank Hopkins, the Frank Dux of Horse Racing. That other Frank also claimed he had won a legendary competition... without proper proof.
Never had any old video record of Frank Dux fights, only in courtrooms where he lost repeatedly. John Claude Van Damme had highschool tournament videos. And even Steven Seagal have more credibility compared to Frank Dux
Frank Dux used to rent space back in the late seventies at Chuck Cory’s Kung Fu San Soo school in North Hollywood on Sundays when the school was closed. He’d watch Chuck teach on other days and then try to teach the same lessons on Sunday. True story. This video has one of those lessons at 3’29”. Of course he fucked it up.
Wait, wasn’t he supposed to be an international spy / assassin in the late 70’s? You’re telling me that the American James Bond was skulking around north Hollywood king fu schools in between missions? 😂
I've met soldiers .who fought and killed people and I've never met one yet. Who talked about their military service. Wene soldiers came back from the Falklands war. They were disgusted by people saying did you kill any one. Then offering to buy them a drink. Soldiers will all ways see .the people they have killed. Because they see .that it could be them lying dead
My grandpa was a veteran from that war, and his stories are about the day he left and when he returns home. I can understand him since when i was younger i was involved in gang violence, and the last thing you want to think about is all the lives that got lost, friends and enemies alike, no matter if it was your childhood friend, someone you met a week ago or you know nothing about them
My wife’s stepfather is a retired green beret Colonel and constantly tells military stories (he’s 87) but it was literally his entire life. Even after he got out he worked as a contractor well into his 60s, it’s his entire identity.
Unbelievable great channel. When I saw 👀 Bloodsport I was amazed.😮 What a life ! I was trained under Ice Man who was trained under Fred Miller who was trained under BRUCE LEE
I'm starting to think Dux vs Hayes would be a battle of bullshido masters ... well, at least Hayes can actually introduce you to his teacher, a verifiably real person!
Completed 13 Years of Honorable Service in The United States Army, 5 of those 13 Years in Iraq, 4 Deployments glad to be ALIVE, Love America, I enjoy Kicking The Bag at the gym not sure About Frank Dux, Kick The Bag too keep my old legs in shape, would like to learn a Martial Arts, however will never come Close to Frank Dux or some of the Heroes who fought in Vietnam: if anything stay Humble most of all Live an HOENST LIFE: if Anything Frank Dux needs to realize who he is !!! Not sure what to believe !!!
I drew inspiration from the film Bloodsport. But even as a kid; Undefeated after 329 matches seemed to beg the question, Is he an alien or is there a bit of exaggeration here
Well i watched fighting sports as a kid and some champions held huge w streaks by fighting weaklings so i thought either he exaggerated or he achieved that record by fighting rookies
@@GarkKahn If you'd humor me. Let's say you have 2 individuals exactly the same. So it's ultimately the system (Excluding jujitsu) that determines victory. Do you have a pick? Between Japanese, Chinese, or Korean. I'm curious which you'd choose.
Ngl I'm on Bloodsport deep dive because of Cobra Kai. Last time I saw it I was 11 years old and just thought they made artistic liberties when making the movie. Now at 29, reading about Frank Dux and his claims ridiculous sounds like the Mary Sue character I would write in my early teens. Great content, man! I would definitely definitely subscribe
Growing up doing martial arts, Frank Dux sounds like that crazy uncle that would disappear for months or years and then come back and tell stories about how he was fighting ninjas in far off lands, then u find that he was really just staying at the local trailer park spending his time with hookers and blow.

🫡You been on top of stuff Bro 😂😂🤣 I love it keep exposing these fakers
Here is my claim that Frank Dux (and I deliberately pronounce it like "Ducks", because **spits) is a fraud:
1. Ninja (忍者) is the acronym for the proper term, "Shinobinomono" (忍びの者), which literally translates to, "Hidden Person". It was an official government of Japan (during the Edo Period) euphemism for what is also known as the "Gardener Society" (お庭番 Oniwaban) which was founded by Ieyasu Tokugawa, in 1607, as a spy network to keep tabs on his vassal Daimyo. Basically the 16th century equivalent to a secret service. "忍者" did not get the modern "Ninja" pronunciation until the 1950's. Prior to the 1950's, it was still read as "Shinobinomono". *I doubt seriously that he was part of the Japanese secret service, which the Oniwaban actually still exists.*
2. Shinbinomono/Ninja were spies, and not fighters. Now, some samurai were Ninja, but not all ninja are warriors.
3. If you read the actual treatises of Shinobinomono from antiquity (which are available at The Tokyo National Museum", *NO PART Of Shinobi-Jutsu (Not ninjutsu which is a western creation) HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH FIGHTING!* The treatises has more to do with how to blend in with the environment... And by that, more like how to make something like a ghillie suit to hide in tall grasses, how to pretend to be a gardener or masseuse or a cook, in order to gain intelligence. Now, most people who worked for the government had to learn some kind of combat skill, but often that is cart before horse, because most people put in government positions in feudal Japan, and early modern Japan, *WERE SELECTED FROM VARIOUS DOJO, AND VETTED BEFORE RECRUITMENT.* anything other than this can not be proven and is utter crap
4. There is a fighting method known as Taijutsu (体術 which means "Body Methods") which is synonymous with both Jujitsu and Kempo, but is less of an umbrella term of martial arts than Bujutsu (武術 means "War method", and generic term meaning "Martial Arts"), which is often confused with the western concept of Ninjustsu. The reality is, Taijutsu became dominant after 1605, when Tokugawa banned civilian ownership of weapons, without Title (of being a samurai) or license from a samurai. Before this point, anyone can own a Katana or a gun. After the end of the Sengoku era, and at the beginning of the Edo period, Tokugawa noted how a rag tag of civilians with weapons can rise against the government, thus he banned weapons (The first known widespread gun ban in history). Because of all of this, Taijutsu such as Judo, sumo, karate, and Kempo became the popular arts learned by civilians, and any exemplars are selected for further training to become government officials.
That all being said, *NO WAY IN HELL DID DUX KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT JAPANESE MARTIAL ARTS, THE HISTORY OF MARTIAL ARTS, AND IS A COMPLETE FRAUD!*
If 11 year old me saw this video when I was obsessed w bloodsport in the 90s I wld havebeen so bummed. I really thought frank dud was an American hero lol
You should stop being a coward and go tell him face to face and be the first to do it and put it out as your next video.
I’m so hurt you would say such things about Frank Dux. Just for your insolence, I’m gonna start my own brand of martial arts by going to the mountain and carve my clans identity into a tree. That will fix your wagon! I dig your your videos, what trips out is that people still the world is round. lol
No wonder Dux and Seagal hate each other; they have so much in common.
Lol
Yes, they should do a movie together, called. " Hard to prove"
In my culture we say, the one thing that a thief hates the most is a fellow thief.
He was Steven Seagul before Steven Seagull!
Sad To Say But Majority Of People Severely Dislike Seagal
The fact that he falsely claims combat service tells me everything about his other claims.
Ninjitsu😂😂😂😂😂 , I was trained by Jet lee, Jackie and blackie chan + Ali and Mike tyson was my waterboy... Facts.
That the government can’t admit he’s a veteran cause he’s so deep undercover that the president doesn’t know?
Couldn’t have said it better, it’s a spit in the face of those who actually risked their lives.
@@ransakreject5221....he was in the Marine corps reserves kicked out for mental health issues.
The Asian equivalent is China’s Kung Fu movies
I love Frank pretending to break the board with a spear hand at 2:21 by quickly switching to a palm strike and back to a spear hand after it breaks. He has no shame.
Hercule moment
He's a paper tiger he bought a belt and thinks that gives him credibility besides who in their right mind would say vic Moore made them when he's just as much a phoney claiming he beat Bruce Lee
It’s not him. It’s you. He moves so swiftly that our puny eyes can’t see it correctly. He has to slow it down so that we won’t figure out what’s really going on. He‘s really an alien from another planet and is here scouting earth for a human fighter that is good enough to compete in the Super Galaxy Kung Fu Tournament that beings travel from other galaxies to fight in. You didn’t hear it from me though. It‘s quadruple black belt super top secret.
@@abbynormall207 dang you are right upon slowing it way down i actually see that he broke 4 boards and it just looked like one. He is a true legend.
Joking aside but an improper palm strike to any board can screw up your hand. I know personally cause I still have issues with my forefinger
But you can tell he switched strikes lol
Frank Dux taught Billy Mitchell secret Donkey Kong techniques he learned from his uncle who works for Nintendo.
Bwahahahah
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great crossover comment!
HAHAHA
BLIND BANANA STANCE
Frank Dux is almost certainly the greatest martial arts fraud of all time. I’ll cite a # of examples:
1. He never served in Vietnam; he enlisted after the war was over.
2. He was never deployed overseas-ever.
3. He received no specialized training-ever.
4. Dux would have us believe that the Government bypassed all the US special forces in order to send him, at 19, on secret missions, I guess due to his Ninja training.
5. He was never awarded the Medal of Honor, or any other medals, as per his official military records.
6. There’s a picture of him wearing the Army Medal of Honor. Dux, in fact, served just over four months active duty in the Marine Corps., not the Army. He claimed the military never explained why.
7. The FBI actually wanted the US Attorney to charge ‘The Secret Man’ with wearing fake military medals, which is against the US Code, aka Stolen Valor.
8. He was, however, referred to a psychological evaluation, for expressing ‘flighty & disconnected’ ideas.
9. He claims to have been appointed as a Russian Army Captain. Say what?
10. He never fought in the Kumite, but, probably, has some, minimal, martial arts training.
11. In fact, no Kumite never even happened in the Bahamas, according to Bahamas’ Minister of Sports.
12. The video of him ‘fighting’ in the Kumite was actually a French martial artist named Philippe Cadoret, competing in Taiwan, in 1986.
13. Mr. Cadoret’s son contacted Dux and threatened a lawsuit, unless he immediately removed the videos, which he subsequently did.
14. He claimed to have sold the sword, which he won at the Kumite, in order to rescue a boatload of children, who had been abducted by pirates. Yes, he actually said this!
15. The International Fighting Arts Association, which allegedly sponsored the Kumite, listed Dux’ home address as its international HQ.
16. His Kumite trophy was purchased at a local CA store.
17. No, Dux is not a Ninja.
18. Two friends, Richard Robinson, and Richard Bender, whom Dux asked to lie about having witnessed Dux’ fight in the Kumite, subsequently admitted lying for him and having fabricated the entire story.
19. He defeated 66 people in a tug of war! Yes, he actually said this!
20. He bilked hundreds, possibly thousands, of students out of their hard - earned money. NOT OK.
21. He never worked for the CIA, either directly or indirectly.
22. He claimed to have been personally recruited by the CIA Director, William Casey, in a bathroom. Yes, he actually said this.
23. Dux claims to have been a hit man for the CIA. If even remotely true, he’d never, ever disclose such.
24. Both the CIA & two US Army Generals, actually publicly called out his BS, which is rare for them to do.
25. The ‘Secret Man’, if real, would never publicly discuss his secret agent, black ops assignments.
26. His stories continually change; lies beget lies.
27. Dux has NO background in intelligence. Zip.
28. He claimed to have been gouged by a bayonet in the stomach on one such mission.
29. He claimed to have been recruited to assassinate Steven Segal. Say what, again?
30. His instructor never existed. He got the name Tiger Tanaka form a James Bond movie ‘You Only Live Twice’.
31. Zane Frazier, a legitimate MMA fighter and a real martial artist, body slammed Dux over a dispute regarding money.
32. Dux sued Jean Claude Van Damn, the LA Times, and Soldier of Fortune magazine for liable - all unsuccessful, frivolous lawsuits.
33. Dux allegedly challenged JCVD to fight on the ledge of a 20 - story building.
34. He’s fairly intelligent and is a very convincing liar.
35. Dux now wears dark glasses and the right side of his mouth droops. I feel he probably suffered a stroke. For this, I truly feel sorry for him. But he’s an ultimately a FRAUD & a LIAR.
Only 35 things? Not enough proof!!
You obviously did your homework, a little obsessive nonetheless
Frank Dux is legit. In Peru during the battle at Bunker Hill in the year 1611, I was in his helicopter sniper unit to take out King Xerxes in Paris.
TL;DR
Heh, when I first heard the claims, I thought " wait, his instructor was a Bond character?"
Don Shipley says it best, “If you’d lie about military service, what wouldn’t you lie about?”. Basically you can’t outright believe anything the guy says.
"it's Classified" "it was extremely secretive, and underground" "I was sworn to secrecy" "I took the oath of omerta to NEVER speak of those details" "There will never be records of that, it was a secret mission" "At the time it was illegal in every country, nobody was supposed to know about it" ... Then how have you been running your mouth about all this to me for the past 20 years?
“It’s Don Shipley bro.. were you a Navy SEAL???”
@Shidoshi578 Well, I was actually hand selected for UDT training because I was a black belt in Karate... And at that time, oh that was years ago, you know you just did what you were told, so after that it was mostly classified stuff.@@Shidoshi578

@kalikaputra The problem is they built him into a asset so dangerous and powerful that he could nearly topple the whole system.
Yep and Segal is no doubt behind it as well😅
Lmfao..that's the WINNER!!
Hollywood created so many fake martial artists with supernatural military backgrounds that it almost killed off the entire action movie industry lol.

At least Steven Seagal has won numerous championships. The McDonald's Memorial Cup. The Golden Corral Annual All You Can Eat Butterfly Shrimp competition. Last but not least the 24 Hours of Beer Battered Onion Rings hosted by Buffalo Wild Wings.
Where he cheated to win ,those rings wasn't regulation he's a blemish on the good name of the Buffalo wild wings franchise
Lolol you have your way with words! You can get me hysterical with laughter. Thanks, mate!
😂
And he won the top ramen war!
😂😂😂😂😂
When my father got sick I found his discharge papers. Turns out he is a decorated Marine, Viet Nam war. He thankfully recovered and I asked why he never told us that he had medals and he said "Real men don't need to tell stories."
My dad was the same way. All I knew was 3rd gen farmer in Iowa lol...he wasn't military, but medals and awards (A LOT) found for sports. He was not big, 5'9 160lb "monster/rover" in football and very good in track and basketball...baseball he was just ok, but played... ANYWAY...after i discovered that stuff he pulled out some black and white football games on vhs.....i was shocked, again, he wasn't a big man, but had little care for his own body, he was an absolute missile!! Once I got older and went to the bars, everyone talked about him. Sports and not quite as neat, his fighting in his 20s! Lol..new stories and from others was always neat though! The best part, great father and my best friend...turns 70 here soon, I do know, I'm gonna be a mess when he passes! Thank you to your father for his service!
That’s because your dad is a man not an entertainer. Your dad knows what’s what. I’m so proud of my dads service but I know nothing about it except the names of his friends, they have stayed close even after my dads passing. Semper Fidelis means something to them.
We had a similar experience with my wife's grandfather. He was drafted in '42 and fought in the Pacific Theatre until Japan surrendered. When he was 93, we found paperwork that he had received medals including a Silver Star (which actually meant something back then).
When I told her grandfather about what we had found, he opened up about a lot of experiences he had while fighting the Japanese. He had never shared those details before and it was mind-boggling to hear, firsthand, what happened to the 'island-hoppers.'
My favorite Frank Dux story is the one where he asked his friend to drop him off outside of the woods one day. When he was dropped off he was carrying a duffel bag and gave the friend instructions to pick him up in a couple of days. When the friend came back to pick him up, Frank came out of the woods without the duffel bag, holding a trophy that was around the same size as the duffel bag, and claimed he had won the trophy in a secret martial arts tournament in the woods.
That was actually Raphael Torre. Another famous fraud in the martial arts community. Joe Rogan knew the guy personally.
I heard that was Rafael Torre in the 90s.
@@MartyNozz oh was it? I might be getting my Bullshido senseis mixed up
No lie I scored a 188 in Bowling the best score I have ever achieved in Bowling, I was over Joyed: Never came close again: The TRUTH is I average almost a 140 points in Bowling: These Grand Masters of Martial is top notch !!!
No it was frank. That was the kumati tournament
Dux is a lucky man when you think about it. There are thousands upon thousands of BS artists from the 70's and 80's who talked a lot of crap and people fell for it. But he talked his way into having a movie made about his BS and achieved a level of fame that would make Count Dante proud.
Love your videos man!
Good point 👍
and he lived at a time before everything was recorded, so there being no video of his exploits was not uncommon.
Count Dante was an actual martial artist
I met Frank Dux back in 2013 at a Martial arts convention in NYC when I was training with the AK system of Bujutsu Do and I feel he was very selective of what he was honest about. One lie that he actually admitted was a lie was him being an extra Actor in Highlander but as I listened to him more and compared his mindset with that of Other Martial artists that I met like Cary takgawa and Benny Urquidez James Lew Master Eric Lee Michael Jai White Cynthia Rothrock and Don Wilson( they where all at the Action Magazine awards in Atlantic City, except for Frank Dux).He seemed to inflate himself in some areas and my teacher said he comes off phony with his sunglasses( it gave a Johnny Cage Vibe) but now after all these years of his life being broken down, the suspicions were true from my teacher. Bullshido at its finest
@@ulrichenry4881The lies about his military service are all anyone needs to know to determine he’s an utter fraud.
I’m glad Dux exists because the world now has Bloodsport
Still a great movie
Was the instructor on Napoleon Dynamite ALSO based on Frank Dux?😂😂😂😂😂😂

Actually, his latest origin story is that Count Dante was his senior
He also is good friends with another well known bullshido artist, Ashida Kim.
He's another Steven segal another bullshit artist lies so much he can't tell reality from fiction. Hollywood for ya.
@@EVENINGWOLF666Kim is the man. He actually competed

Is there a reason you didn't mention Ashida Kim? That guy beats all them in the Bullshido category.
Listen. I’m tired of people calling frank a fake. He’s absolutely real. I watched him fight the kumite. I fought in that same kumite. I was 12 and had to defeat 5 ninjas and do the ken hock. I hit the rear of the truck and the power runs down and blows out the engine. So stop. He’s a damn hero in the cia. Secret stuff. He defeated me with a 790 spinning back flip hook heel kick. Now that I’m a grown and a member of the red rag society I challenge you frank. My teacher tonacho cheezo and your teacher has long been enemies dating back 1509 years. I’ve have now mastered bootycon and ninjitsu along with crackdo. I’m no longer 12 frank. I have mastered the 1340 degree kick. The Deli lama has declared me grandmaster of all.

Sir, you have an amazing voice. Hollywood should recruit you for cartoon character voices. You are simply an excellent orator. Great presentation skills in your videos.
Didn't someone work out the mathematical impossibility of a 60 fight per fighter tournament?
Yeah I saw that in a different video someone did on fraud dux
Of course, the sheer thought of fighting that frequently in a tournament is absurd.
@@MortonT1958 I found this on the net to explain:
In order for Frank Dux to knockout 56 men in a row in one tournament to win, the number of people in the tournament will have had to be almost infinity. Every time you want to add a round to a bracket you have to double the number of competitors. 64 competitors would fight 6 rounds and 128 would have to fight 7 rounds to come out on top. And so on, and so on, and Dux is a liar, and so on…
Unless you had an all vs all mixed with direct elimination in a very weird and totally not practical format, since either the number of participants or fights would be massive hence impossible to organize, that Is total bs
So are the top people the ones who won the most?
Regardless of Dux's lies, you have seen Bloodsport 2,576 times.
It was a great movie.
I want to know where he got those silly blue gi tops with the giant quilted shoulders, they look like stage outfits from Earth Wind & Fire circa 1977.
....its just missing the huge kiss boots
Frank Dux won the kumite by using the power of the chi taught to him by George Dillman. Capcom later stole this technique and renamed it the “hadoken.”
When I finish with wife I always yell " hadoken".she loves that part
@@Cjohn31 my husband too lol
He also claims to have beaten gouken in sf2 (probably)
Prince is probably the best martial arts education channel AND commentary about martial arts personalities... His research is exhaustive,, and he has imo a centered presentation style where he examines both the positive and negative facts...💯👍
The Pinkman knew this. Dux is a legendary hoodlum.
You should see Larsen halleck episode about Frank as well lol
I trained with Frank a long time ago in the San Fernando Valley. I liked him, I saw some of his fights and he was very fast and very good. This was before MMA but I hear stories about his MMA encounters. Frank was a good guy, I enjoyed hanging out with him.
Phillioe Cadiret was the man in his "fight videos" and Frank Dux was exposed.
Don't come on here and lie for Dux. The guy had no fights and would lose to even a slightly skilled martial artist. He would probably lose most street fights with average guys who don't even know how to fight.
@@Robert-nu4vc the fights Dux claimed to have were videos of Phillipe Cadoret. Again Frank Dux is a Fraud.
He also defeated Shao Kahn, Goro and Shang Tsung, in a single day, to save the EarthRealm in Mortal Kombat! He's negotiating with Johnny Cage to play him in the movie! 😂😂😂😂 He also defeated The Rock AND Stone Cold in the SAME night to become the Undisputed Champion!
But then Chuck Norris kicked his kick and ripped apart the universe. The obly thing left was Chuck😂
Damn Bro!! You went in at the end!! Awesome episode! Yeah, " That guy" was a guy I worked with that bought a $3000 Les Paul and couldn't play when I said, " Ok, play me something"...and crickets!! Peace Bro!!
When I was child I believed it all after seeing Blood Sport. It said it was based on the true life of him. But I also believed in Jim “Hacksaw” Dugan and The Junk Yard Dog.
My dad thinks the same
Then again, we once watched X-Men and thinks jfk got killed because he was a mutant so...
After watching this guy since the 80s, I’m actually convinced that Bruce Springsteen truly was his shidoshi.
These animations were a nice touch. The fighting style demonstration and the style of art design go together to make a surreal result.
Steven seagul and frank dux should make a movie together….the two creators of all fighting 🤣🤣
Think it would be broke back kung fu.
Wow! Its seems like Frank is full of bologna. But he pales in comparison to Steven Segal. That brotha is on that Avengers level BS!😂
Sorry... But as a Martial Artists of 30 years, I disagree. While Ive only seen a few clips of Frank... he moves very awkwardly. Seagal is Fluid, Fast, Accurate, and Powerful. Everything Ive seen Seagal do, is Masterclass level in Output. As far as "Story Telling" goes, thats a whole different thing. Both of them are Malignant Narcissists.. and Narcissists are known for making up stories, exaggerating things, and or outright telling lies (And far worse).
But Despite the Narcissists lies... they do tend to have developed some actual depth of skillsets. The level of development, is really depending on the individual... as some Narcissists are extremely lazy. Yet others... like Bruce Lee... worked his tail off, 24x7.
Ya you’re trippin. Seagal is a high level Aikido master, regardless of whatever else he’s done, said, or made up.
We've seen none of their fights, just like Bruce Lee
He is actually worse than Seagal in terms of stories . Lets see he won 300 matches in a kumite . He worked for the CIA on missions , was awarded the medal of honor . Broke bulletproof glass with his hands , claims he can dodge a bullet . Has brain tumors from so many blows to the head taken . Couldn't be choked out by top BJJ guys . Claims Bruce Lee said to his teacher he was faster than him . Beat up Bob Wall when he was only 14 , and was taught by a Ninja Master named Tanaka . No he's even above Seagal in crazy stories .

You forgot to mention when sixteen year old Frank Dux was secretly training ninjutsu with Tiger Tanaka in Japan, he had to turn down his acceptance to Star Fleet Academy and break up with the beautiful, highly intelligent Mary Sue. She was naturally devastated, but Dux is such a selfless person and it was all a carefully calculated personal sacrifice. His ninja vanishing allowed Mary Sue to eventually become top of her class and save Earth from Klingons while Dux stayed behind to dismantle criminal syndicates from the shadows!
Frank Dux is an underrated comedian. He’s the Leslie Nielsen of the martial arts world. He doesn’t even need to construct jokes. He just needs to speak with sincerity to provide entertainment.
I studied and taught Martial Arts. I saw a lot of delusional people who thought they were going to go out and fight everyone who made them mad. I feel humility is a key in learning Martial Arts. I spent many evenings in class working on a section of kata that I couldn't get down. I was lucky to have a sensei that was willing to help me. Cool thing was after I learned the whole kata then he taught me how to actually apply it in a real world situation.
This is what I'm currently doing, except it's all through video until I can get Sifu over to teach a workshop.
Once I get the form down, I have almost 4 hours of video showing potential applications of every move in the form.
It seems Frank Dux took the old saying, "Never let the truth get in the way of a good story" to the extreme... but hey, Bloodsport was definitely entertaining. So for that, I thank him for his turbo bullsh!t.
This video is well written, well performed, and well edited. Nicely done 👍

I haven't heard Dux make the claim that he inspired Mortal Kombat, but I would have a good laugh if he did, especially after hearing the creators talk about the process of making Mortal Kombat - they were trying to make a video game that was like playing your way through a 70s kung-fu movie.
Jake Paul is going to want to fight him next...if Tyson doesn't destroy him.
He'll fight both at the same time
Right after the Zuckerberg vs Musk fight at the colloseum
The way I laughed when you said " not a shred of evidence to back this up" which is actually true there's no evidence😅I feel like Dux is one of those guys that watched so much kung fu movies when he was young had a wild fantasy and decided to grow up and put all his fantasy in his head to reality, I mean reality in his own head 😅I don't believe he even is a solid martial artist I feel like he so passionate about martial arts that he never entered an official school he taught himself and got a little bit good and had enough martial arts training to con his way up to success
In today's world a Frank Duks couldn't happen. All veterans keep their eyes peeled for stolen valor these days and with the internet, our vision reaches very far. And I would bet that true martial artists know what they're seeing when they see it. So a guy like that can talk all he wants to and even write a book, but if his pile of bullspit raises him high enough to start talking about movie deals he'll wind up falling on his face.
But that's just _my_ opinion.
Kinda
But people will always believe what they want to, if a 40 yr old wants to think santa is real nothing will change their mind
@@GarkKahn Good point. In fact I think you just summed up the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Didn't work back then either. At the time the FBI wanted him charged and 2 Generals called him out on it. As old mate above said, people will believe anything if they want to despite having proof. Hell there are people to this day that still defend Dux. It's crazy.
People spew lies and utter nonsense in every aspect of our daily lives.....
Politicians and priests, faith healers and vets who can't name the unit they served in.....
there's even a "museum" that claims dinosaurs were on a boat with people during a global flood that no one noticed.
People will believe anything said by people who say everything.
I really enjoy your work. Thank you to your wife for sharing your time with us. Youre an excellent journalist, teacher, and storyteller
Love your work, Prince Goldenbell Training. You have such a kind heart. I think so well of you 😊
I finished his autobiography, “The Secret Man” a little while ago, 10/10 incredible comedy. One of my favorite reads in a long time.
It would make a great Netflix series
I was in the military and missing time is a sure sign of espionage and secret missions. That part I have to acknowledge.
Missing time is called AWOL and he was in Jail not on a mission.
@@guyleblanc840Exactly something a CIA plant would say!
Frank Dux made a autobiography inspired by every action movie that were popular at that time. So he is the real life
1. Daniel Larusso from the Karate Kid
2. Bruce Lee from Enter the Dragon
3. Rambo
4. American Ninja
5. James Bond
He is also a little bit of Captain Jack Sparrow, and John Holmes
Imagine if the MCU was a thing back then? He would have been some supersoldier experiment who got to lift Mjolnir
I was thinking "American Ninja" and "Remo Williams" after watching this video.
he's more like Chris Farley in Beverly Hills Ninja 🤣
Met the man at a tournament where he was a celebrity attendee. All I can say, he was totally cool, and gave me some valid pointers.
I'm sorry
@@GoldenbellTraining condescending answer. Shows your character.
You mean like pointers for writing a fictional story?
@@GoldenbellTraining Should have asked what he was smoking that gave him that Illusion
Pointers on how to be a Stolen Valor piece of excrement?
If you have not already, you should consider becoming an author. You'd be an amazing sportswriter in particular.
A reel ninja won't tell anyone they are a ninja
Whether he's real or not that story made Jeam-Claude Van Dame famous
You won me over when you exposed Bruce Lee as someone who had a few fights but not what his followers believed
@@johnreidy2804 34 fights - 1 loss
30 full contact spars - 0 losses
As a former marine that served in Iraq and who has lost many brothers in war! This man sickens me! So many people guilty of stolen valor
Same - I didn't get much sleep the night before I flew out to Bahrain to my ship. I had to room with an HM who watched an IED take out a bunch of his Marines.
Dude was screaming in his sleep all night.
There is no such thing as a former Marine.
There’s no such thing as a ex marine, former means not active! Carries the marine espirit de corps! But no longer humps a M240 Golf anymore
We all have to agree that Frank dux is mentally ill. He craves attention and will do anything to get it, even now. He wants to be seen , even if it means ridicule it seems. The best thing to do for poor old Frank is just to ignore him. I'm sure we have all met that one guy who claims has done it all, no matter where you been or what you have done, he's done it, he's been there and all better than you. LOL. These people always tend to be a joke and unfortunately bullied. We all know his claims are pure nonsense, just best to ignore him, he is a legend in his own mind.
Frank Dux claimed he offered to fight me "Blindfolded" but I refused. Why would any Professional World Champion Kickboxer be afraid to fight a "blindfolded" opponent? He is mentally ill....
Thanks for stopping by, Champ 👊
There were 9 UFC tournaments before Dux turned 40. He was 37 when it began. Several UFC legends fought well into their 40s. A few fought in their 50s.
Those early matches featured martial artists from most major fighting styles and very few rules, which was exactly what Frank Dux claims was his area of expertise. Why didn't he ever fight in the UFC?
A guy with Frank's supposed ferocity and competitive spirit for no holds barred fighting would've found it impossible to resist what those early UFC fights were offering.
There's just no way in hell that the ultimate badass, who supposedly once went AWOL from the military, because he simply couldn't resist the temptation to fight, wouldn't have somehow found a way to enter at least one UFC match in the early to mid-90s. It's inconceivable.
I wouldn't mind asking him about his military awards..."Face 2 Face!"
It sounds like Dux has gone Full Seagal. Never go Full Seagal.
Segal and Dux should make a movie. You all know it’d actually be pretty great.
Thanks for the amazing video ❤
The kumite & all that was kind of cool when I was 12 in the early 80s. It was a fun fantasy world & idea. All in all it didn't really hurt anyone and no one really believes it now.
This was back when if you needed a cheat code for a video game you had to call all your friends as there was no internet. And we had entire magazines full of innuendo & adventure.
I think it was more of a sign of the times.
It was like fight to the deaths irl using WWE elements, before UFC and the rest became a thing by taking those concepts in a realistic environment
Where was he during the early ufcs? He was just in his 30s then
He claimed he couldn't compete as was hit by Zane Frazier , who hit him with brass knuckles in a sucker punch . Which is nonsense . But he's the same person who also claims the UFC was named after him , the ultimate fighter ! Rorian Gracie has said he never even heard of the guy , when he named the UFC .
The funny thing is, "kumite" literally just means "meeting hands" in Japanese. But it's really nothing more than "sparring" in English. Leaving aside ludicrous claims of some ultimate underground fighting championship, which anyone who knows the real history of martial arts in Japan knows is utter BS, the mere idea that it was called "The Sparring" makes it sound ridiculous.
You could get away with this BS in the 60s and 70s, but not today.
You can, not with the same strategy tho
Can’t believe Dux AND Ashida Kim are still around tainting martial arts with their BS. I thought these guys would’ve faded out decades ago.
They appear to be close friends. I guess "Real Ninjas" stick together 🤣
Worlds biggest ego. Even bigger than Seagals. Congrats Frank
Watch "Hidalgo" starring Viggo Mortensen. He played Frank Hopkins, the Frank Dux of Horse Racing. That other Frank also claimed he had won a legendary competition... without proper proof.
Frank Dux should represent Earth in an interplanetary bullshitting tournament.
Surely he represented earth in the mortal kombat tournament at least 10 times
When you start your bragging by claiming false or stolen valour, it's time to tune out.
Never had any old video record of Frank Dux fights, only in courtrooms where he lost repeatedly.
John Claude Van Damme had highschool tournament videos.
And even Steven Seagal have more credibility compared to Frank Dux
Frank Dux used to rent space back in the late seventies at Chuck Cory’s Kung Fu San Soo school in North Hollywood on Sundays when the school was closed. He’d watch Chuck teach on other days and then try to teach the same lessons on Sunday. True story. This video has one of those lessons at 3’29”. Of course he fucked it up.
Wait, wasn’t he supposed to be an international spy / assassin in the late 70’s? You’re telling me that the American James Bond was skulking around north Hollywood king fu schools in between missions? 😂
I've met soldiers .who fought and killed people and I've never met one yet. Who talked about their military service. Wene soldiers came back from the Falklands war. They were disgusted by people saying did you kill any one. Then offering to buy them a drink. Soldiers will all ways see .the people they have killed. Because they see .that it could be them lying dead
My grandpa was a veteran from that war, and his stories are about the day he left and when he returns home. I can understand him since when i was younger i was involved in gang violence, and the last thing you want to think about is all the lives that got lost, friends and enemies alike, no matter if it was your childhood friend, someone you met a week ago or you know nothing about them
My wife’s stepfather is a retired green beret Colonel and constantly tells military stories (he’s 87) but it was literally his entire life. Even after he got out he worked as a contractor well into his 60s, it’s his entire identity.
Unbelievable great channel. When I saw 👀 Bloodsport I was amazed.😮 What a life ! I was trained under Ice Man who was trained under Fred Miller who was trained under BRUCE LEE
Cultist people are like, 1+1=2 is false
u just got a new sub. keep up the good work. Peace from Australia
I'm starting to think Dux vs Hayes would be a battle of bullshido masters ... well, at least Hayes can actually introduce you to his teacher, a verifiably real person!
Can confirm his greatness . I fought alongside him in Vietnam , and i was one of the Kumite judges . His Ninja skills were sublime .
U must be just as fed up as him.
@@guyleblanc840 😆
If dux wasn't so old, I would challenge him to a real fight, hand to hand...
He would agree, THEN make insane demands until it was impossible.
Don't do that
I once fought him and got killed
Luckily i survived, but i doubt the dragon balls can revive another one of his chillion victims
Completed 13 Years of Honorable Service in The United States Army, 5 of those 13 Years in Iraq, 4 Deployments glad to be ALIVE, Love America, I enjoy Kicking The Bag at the gym not sure About Frank Dux, Kick The Bag too keep my old legs in shape, would like to learn a Martial Arts, however will never come Close to Frank Dux or some of the Heroes who fought in Vietnam: if anything stay Humble most of all Live an HOENST LIFE: if Anything Frank Dux needs to realize who he is !!! Not sure what to believe !!!
Frank is a real life Stevan Seagal!
Hey, that movie was awesome.
Jean-Claudes moving and deep performance was unmatched in his portrait of such an amazing martial artist.
10/10.
I drew inspiration from the film Bloodsport. But even as a kid; Undefeated after 329 matches seemed to beg the question, Is he an alien or is there a bit of exaggeration here
Well i watched fighting sports as a kid and some champions held huge w streaks by fighting weaklings so i thought either he exaggerated or he achieved that record by fighting rookies
@@GarkKahn If you'd humor me. Let's say you have 2 individuals exactly the same. So it's ultimately the system (Excluding jujitsu) that determines victory. Do you have a pick? Between Japanese, Chinese, or Korean. I'm curious which you'd choose.
He probably meant Henan province. But my guy also claimed he taught Van Damme. Which made me shake my noggin left to right..lol
He is a grand master of the League of Shadows and is also known as Deathstroke in the chinese underworld fighting scene.
🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for the video Prince 🙏🏽
Dux appears to have had a stroke.
That's no "stroke," that's the result of being punched in the face by Zane Frazier.
Ngl I'm on Bloodsport deep dive because of Cobra Kai. Last time I saw it I was 11 years old and just thought they made artistic liberties when making the movie. Now at 29, reading about Frank Dux and his claims ridiculous sounds like the Mary Sue character I would write in my early teens.
Great content, man! I would definitely definitely subscribe
What the hell!!! I was just thinking about finding some kind of documentary about this guy. Are you a mind reader?
So sweet! You'd love to sit, drink beer, and listen to Frank Dux tell stories.
Thanks!
Growing up doing martial arts, Frank Dux sounds like that crazy uncle that would disappear for months or years and then come back and tell stories about how he was fighting ninjas in far off lands, then u find that he was really just staying at the local trailer park spending his time with hookers and blow.
We call that grandpa fighting the devil with a sword on the mountains where i live
He seems to have varied martial arts skills that's about it He might be exaggerating his exploits to make a buck
We all know George Dillman is the undefeated Kumite champ. He sings and they get knocked out
