    I discovered Mick Coup via this video and I could listen to the guy for hours. There's more extended philosophy and life lessons to be taken from his words than mere combative techniques.

    Ive lost count of how many times I’ve viewed this video. I still love it. I’m still learning from it, as well as his other conversations.

    The man finally filmed in his natural environment, doing what he can do best (next to swearing): a back-street loading / unloading labourer.

    Never strive to educate an idiot. They will not learn and they will hate you for trying.

    The art part was added at some point. Originally in Japan it was called Bujutsu and China kuoshu and there was a reality to it. China had a fair amount of the BS Sifu but a they almost vanished after the boxer rebellion when the magic Chi did not stop bullets.
    However don’t discount that a lot of these guys could really fight. In 1928 China was on the verge of war and had a tournament to more or less authenticate their skills for positions teaching the military.
    It was brutal people were Killed and many injured. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Guoshu_Institute.
    Some of us back in the 60s and 70s got it. We trained without gloves and there was full contact karate. I found out quick that having your hands low as a good way to get knocked out. One of the freedoms as a western is I don’t have a cultural bias. I have the freedom to pick and choose what works and what does not.

    Inner city crack dealers on the corners make about $3.50 an hour, with a 7% chance of dying (U.S military in in Iraq 0.5%), I hope you’re doing better than that.

    Best arts to learn as a basis: boxing and wrestling or jui jitsu.

    This guy is one of the very best in the business, I, like Mick did trained in the Martial Arts for years, Judo, two different styles of Karate, Kick Boxing, Thai Boxing and amateur boxing, like he says, there's nothing romantic about a street confrontation. Most of the techniques taught DO NOT WORK!!

    Unless I'm wrong combative arts are based on traditional arts. Also there is much more to martial arts then just fighting.

    What about the Japanese who used Jujitsu on the Battlefield. They only used what worked didn't they?

    • @baldieman64
      @baldieman64 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      It worked in armour, against a guy who you knew was trying to kill you, but it all changed when firearms overtook the battlefield. Those skills became redundant and were lost.
      The shell remained, as a sport or a LARPing hobby, but civilians practising hobbies or sports can't get injured or injure others and there was no need for deadly skills in the ordered society of post-war Japan.

  • @novoscotia
    @novoscotia 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I understand what is being said here and why but this interpretation of the combative arts is based on a misunderstanding f the martial arts with regard to the origins of and deeper philosophical ideas of genuine martial art practice. The proof of this is his interpretation itself - that martial arts are just about fighting..... which is far from the truth

    Great stuff.
    The only qualm is the stuff about how athletes train. Most are simply running off talent and tradition as much as anything else.
    It's obvious when you look at the illy bullshit they do for strength and conditioning.

      George Christiansen: What he means is that performance should be everything. Just get better at what you are doing. Do not add on techniques just because someone else is doing them. Learn to punch harder and faster. kick harder and telegraph less.

    • @georgechristiansen6785
      @georgechristiansen6785 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      He said that in sports performance IS everything and that they don't let sentiment, tradition, ect get in the way.
      This is 100% false. Even at the highest levels of sport they are largely playing follow the leader.

    • @martind2218
      @martind2218 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      What Mick meant was that for instance boxers are not looking for a new way to do a Jab (e.g. spinning flying reverse Jab) they already know that the jab works very well as is - they are putting in the time to perfect their jab to make it as close to perfect as possible. In other words boxers know what works in a boxing match so they concentrate on becoming as good as possible at it.

    "It's like joining the military for the money" really? So why do channels like fight tips and master wong make money...?
