This Is Why Wing Chun Illegal In MMA

- The sport of MMA has exploded in over the last 15 years. Fighters come together and compete in various art forms, hence the name Mixed Martial Arts. The most popular art forms that viewers will see are Brazilian JuJitsu, Judo, Muay Thai, and boxing. Every once in a while, you can even see some other lesser-known art forms such as kempo, french savate, and even capoeira. There have even been a couple of instances where Shaolin kung fu has made an appearance. That's the beauty of this sport.

Enjoy guys! Lets us know what do you think.
Thanks for watching!!
nice
Misleading info, it's not illegal
Lost a sub for this video.
Honestly.... Guys.... Really!!!
Hope the statistics in the comments speak for themselves...... With respect: Utter Cods Wazzel Bull Balls Bollox.
Wing Chun is not illegal in MMA. It's simply not effective!
I gouging is illegal. Fish hooking is illegal. Finger manipulation is illegal. Bitting is illegal. 12 o'clock to 6 o'clock elbow strikes are illegal. Striking the 'family jewels' is also prohibited. (Although it happens frequently.)
You can lean on your opponents throat with your forearm. But ripping out their throat will land you in prison!
“Why is wing chin illegal in mma?”
It isn’t, there, I saved you the time
You can't even legally use any of the moves that make it actually dangerous because it requires things like eye gouging and ball squeezing so no you can't even give a proper demonstration of wing Chun in the ring. I don't know why that's so hard for some people to figure out. That and most practitioners of wing Chun aren't any where near as conditioned as these professional fighters.
@@erikseavey9445 all things being equal, if you can’t box/brawl/grapple better than the opponent, the introduction of less than gentlemanly tactics isn’t going to change the outcome of a fight (your opponent will be in a better position to do these things). Hell, the person live drilling techniques is gonna have an advantage vs the person that can’t live drill these techniques.
Early MMA events (both early UFC and Vale Tudo Brazil come to mind), didn’t have the ball squeezing restrictions, and WC didn’t do any better on these events.
WC isn’t illegal in mma, some techniques (that many other martial arts have), are illegal in modern mma. WC just seems to have issues adjusting to different ranges of combat for this particular format.
And that’s about as respectful as I can be with such a loaded topic.
@@erikseavey9445 ok what about Pride... you or One? hell in the early days you where allowed to soccer sick.. you can still knee a downed opponent.. The reason Wing Chun isnt used is because it doesnt work. its a crap martial arts for self defense same with Krav Maga its crap too
@@andrestrujillo6921 First of all, WC was created in the mind of being the weaker, so tricks are all around in this style, and let me now write off some of the techniques that are illegal (or might be, cuz I don't know all mma rules by heart):
-Biu Jee (eye gouging strike),
-Fat Sao (and Fut Sao) (artery chopping strike),
-strikes into the laryx (well, I guess the reason is obvious?),
-Pai Jarn - elbow strike into the solar plexus (hurts af even while having chest guard on that negates most of the regular fists power - I was sparing with the body builder whose strikes were quite painful, leaving brusiers on and I was also sparring with a middle aged woman whose pai jarns hurt way more, it liretally could break your ribs just like that),
-Kop Jarn (elbow strike mostly applied on the back of the head OR on the spine)
-Gerk techniques (not all, but main kicking technique is knee snapping technique, and Anderson Silva is using it really often but instead snapping the knee he his the tight of the opponent)
-Balls kicking technique (forgot the kicking technique name)
So basicly, WC contains like 70% defence techniques and other 30% are attacking techniques that are mostly illegal so what are you saying about adapting? If Wing Chun have adapt to MMA it wouldn't be Wing Chun, but MMA (excluding wing chun).
Also, Wing Chun (or, lets say Wing Tsun, because that the Yip Man Legacy style I was learning for 5 years) is trained all arond the globe in elite forces such as:
FBI (USA), Marine Corps (USA), SWAT (USA), DEA (USA), RAID (France), GSG-9 (Germany), SEK (Germany), NOCS (Italy), GIP (Luxemburg), Indie anti-terrorist troops, Polish special forces, Hungary special forces - Si-Fu Szel Gabor is main instructor of their special forces (8th master degree) his master is Grand Master Si-Kung Norbert Maday (9th master degree, that took him, If I remember correctly approx. 20 years to archive, I was lucky enough to see him live also).
Moreover, what do you think about Krav Maga (that is like 70% made out of wing tsun?)
PS.: Elite Forces have shortned learning scheme so they don't learn the stlye for 5 years to be able to fight.
@@xSeonerx the historicity of WC/VT aside, even if I make the concessions that those are all banned techniques now (some are, some aren’t), still doesn’t answer how it didn’t do well in early MMA where all those techniques were available, or at least not as restricted.
All the forces mentioned have trained in other arts, that’s hardly a mention of any of these arts validity, and more of a concession on how good the sales team was.
Krav Maga may have chun, I’m yet to see KM as a valid martial art 🤷🏻♂️
This channel gotta be kidding... Wing Chun is not banned in MMA, eye-gouging is illegal... and Wing Chun is not about eye-gouging... this content is ridiculously incorrect
And it still has 3 times more likes than dislikes
@@calamorta the tiny number of 1k likers, who had the patience to see all of it, like it for the absurdity that made them laugh. And the quality of the click bate.
Thanks for clarifying. 🙏🏽
I mean Wing Chun does have eye-gouging techniques, but yeah, it's not just about eye-gouging for sure
Wing Chun is about eye gouging
Wing Chun isn't banned in MMA and it's defensive movements are employed by several UFC fighters.
Well, the moves it shares in common with other martial arts anyway.
You know how you can tell a Muay Thai arm trap from a Wing Chun arm trap? If it works.
Key word though.. Defences. Offenses can't be used because they are "illegal" attacks by the MMA rules. Same reason why a lot of military members aren't allowed to compete as well. (they learn a lot of wingchun close quarters attacks)
@@tounsicorp1487 Well yeah, MMA/UFC is a sport, not street fighting. I study Endokon Honbu Shorin Ryu and you couldn't use even a quarter of their moves in MMA.
Jesus he’s not saying literally illegal he’s saying the base principals of it are to kill or maim. Meaning it’s so vital and instinctual to the true style you can’t remove it. Thus you are unable to avoid some of those illegal moves.
.
It’s actually an unconscious competence. Meaning you don’t think you just react based on training. Based on some of these comments I know it’s gonna be a tough concept for a few of you 😂
Its no more vital to the style than most Southern Kung Fu familes. Total BS
Wing Chun is illegal in MMA in the same way that blocking someone's uppercut with your chin is illegal in Boxing.
lol nice one
Nice one lol

Nice lol one

They lost me when they said Wing Chun is illegal in MMA. No style is illegal in MMA, there are illegal hits like hits to the groin, eye gouging, etc. but not illegal styles.
If the martial art is only different ways of grabbing balls, than is can be banned.
Those kind of hits are the most effective techniques in wing chun. It was invented by a woman to fight off rapists.
@@andrewsinclair7159 those attacks are the most effective in everything. There is no illegal style in mma.
thats exactly what wing chun is, so its forbiden. Style or no style.
@@andrewsinclair7159 they’re no more effective than an overhand right, in fact, if you look at the totality of fighting on film, literally the most effective strike of all time is an overhand right lmfao strikes that are illegal in mma aren’t because of their efficacy, they’re illegal for fighter longevity. The damage that many eye pokes over the years can have ends careers early. A single eye poke is 50/50 whether it’s even going to have any effect at all.
dont bother watchig this vid
Wing Chun has its strengths. It is very effective for trapping hands techniques and in close combats. Some MMA practitioners actually use Wing Chun techniques successfully. However, it should be enhanced with other martial arts techniques. Bruce Lee saw the limitations of the art, his Jeet Kune Do is still based on lots of Wing Chun techniques but he incorporated other arts for striking when you are at long distance to close the gap. It is not about the art, it’s all about the practitioner and how he understands the martial art.
Be like water my friend :)😉
Thank you. well said.
Since when Wing Chun involves eye gouging and throat strikes?
That hand trapping shit hardly ever works
Stick to boxing and muay thai
@@Nickthegamingnerdyeah but the idea of blocking and striking at the same time is effective, being able to attack your opponent while blocking their attacks absolutely opens them up and wing Chun does use this a bit, if it's trained effectively you can effectively add parts of it to your arsenal.
So glad to see everyone bashing you for lying. And the fact you don't acknowledge that your wrong speaks volumes about your character..
I was thinking the same thing.

i love how hes showing guys getting brutalized and KOed in MMA fights and using technique demonstrations and movie fight scenes to prove that wing chun is more dangerous xD
MMA is 30 times more dangerous
The movies give WC lovers a false sense of security.
@@elchuzalongo4339 Standardized MMA has too many flaws . If anyone is interested in Wing Chun , I would gladly spar anytime with any style . I'm not big on promoting any style , but if there is interest , i don't mind showing what it can do . Wing chun for self defense , and for competition is very dangerous . MMA is good , but because of the money hungry direction it has taken like boxing , it continues to grow weaker and weaker while Wing chun takes skills from more styles to continue evolving . MMA was intended to be ever growing , but has been limited , and is very rarely helpful . Look at how much damage those guys take . I have trained both styles and many more for years , I have never had an MMA fighter be able to handle my Wing chun in sparring . To be fair , i know many styles , but when i switch to using only wing chun , people never have a single answer to it .
@@eclipsis1999 You should totally fight mma and make money and spread awareness.
@@elchuzalongo4339 There's literally no logic here. MMA = Mixed Martial Arts. MMA fighters don't all fight the same or even train the exact same combination of martial arts...
I do wing tsun many years and I'm happy with it. I'm not going to try it in ring but on the street I'm cool my chances of resolving conflict in my favor increased dramatically.
“It’s too deadly for the ring” is the number one complete nonsense excuse.
Any untrained street gangster can say the same !!! (Biting neck is also a deadly technique breaking the ring's rules, but it is not beautiful, nor does it look cool when applied) ... BTW, many martial art styles keep saying the same just to invite students to build the master's fame, wealth and prosperity.
I invented my own unbeatable martial arts and I'm 5000-0 in fighting........so I'm not allowed in ufc
Kali maybe or any weapon involve martial arts hehe
Even boxing
Everything depends on the fighter. It's the best but nobody good has fought yet.
There is no art form that is illegal in an MMA fight, there are just attacks that are illegal.
You wouldn't use attacks that are designed to cause fatal or debilitating damage in a sport. This is just a ridiculous premise.
it is his hole point, mma is a sport, whing chun does not function as a sport. it is a MARTIAL art.
@@danielchoritz1903 i dont like the terminology martail art, wing chun isnt a martial art imo. it is a martial style. Taichi is a martial art.
Pussys.
If you can't take someone eye is it really fighting?
@@danielchoritz1903 wing Chun doesn't function as a martial art either lol
Wing chun is a killing art. That's why it's banned. Throat punches, headbutts, knee breaking kicks, a trip and then a head stomp. It's useless without the killer moves. Wing chun is for knife fights, and other death fights. Obviously it's illegal in the ring. Some Shaolin die during the traditional monastery matches.
I was walking home drunk and got suckered by some young guy that knew he'd win easy. While gloating to his buddy I knew my only hope was choking, I couldn't box. He blacked out fairly quickly and I ended up punching the shit out of him. Rely on Instincts.
Most of these Wing Chun techniques are employed in kenpo. Kenpo is one of the most well rounded martial arts systems devised employing Shaolin Kung fu, Karate, jui jitsu( Chi Na) Chinese boxing, and elements of Wing Chun.

I'm a wing chun practitioner. It would be hard to fit more lies and misinformation into this video than what you did. Impressive. You clearly don't understand mma, wing chun, or any of this for that matter.
Think about that for a second. It LITERALLY would be hard to fit more lies in this video. He's not doing that by accident.
@Dan Jamesyou clearly missed the point
@Dan James depends on who I'm fighting. Another out of shape 41 year old who just does traditional martial arts for fun in his spare time? I think I've got a good chance.
An amateur cage fighter who trains a few days a week while working 40+ hours at his actual job? Probably but I'd still have a puncher's chance.
A professional MMA fighter who trains under multiple highly skilled coaches on a set schedule and is devoting his life to the sport of MMA? I probably wouldn't last 15 seconds. But then the pro fighter would also take you out pretty quickly too. So what's your point?
The only reason for bullshit videos like this, is to make people comment. Comments take time, and his videos get play time, which in turn puts AdSense $ in his bank account. When you see trash like this, that isn't factual in any way, we should all learn to just ignore it. It's garbage.
I knew this video was bogus when he didn't mention wrestling as one of the main martial arts used in MMA.
As this person mentions you can train it with mma in mind and utilize it but someone who classically trains it will have a very hard time removing some of the basic structure AFTER its been taught. But the same is true of many martial arts. From all over the world. All of them were made for combat and self discipline. None of them are solely for points play... we have always modified our usage to fit into the world of competition. For instance... SWEEP THE LEG is normal ... outside of a tourney and in the street. =P
Because nobody wants to bring a sack of marshmallows to a hammer fight.
a strictly wing Chun practitioner in MMA would get hammered lol
Yeah. It's called MMA for a reason.
obviously you never ran into one LOL SMH I get your point lots of fakes out there. Look up Rahsun Herkul from Traditional Wing Chun. Amituofo
@I'm not your buddy guy! maybe casual students. If you're in the big leagues 10/10 practice more then 1 art. That's not even debatable.
@I'm not your buddy guy! Not really. Yes there are guys that do. However, if you study with system with a degree of sophistication, then you don't need anything else.
As the videos points out, MMA is rules based and takes away the most effective elements of the art.
What you're saying here is:
"Someone that isn't allowed to use what they've trained in won't be able to compete well in the context of this specific sport against people trained entirely in this sport"
Ahhh, the old classic "Our fighting style is just too deadly to ever be allowed in full-contact competition or sparring." Goes right up there with "Harnessing your Qi powers allows superhuman feats, but they don't work on nonbelievers" and "Ninjutsu gives you superpowers but true ninjas would never reveal themselves or their secrets so that's why it can never be proven"
Nin gees, ain't real!? Da hell?
I'd like for you to try to knock me out with your so called MMA. If I just hold my tongue a certain way I can build enough Qi power to sustain any attacks. Maybe come to my dojo and find out yourself bro. Do more research on Ninjas before you get a shuriken between your eyes without expecting it.
@@artvandalay13 lol
What about Muay Boran?
@@xryanv bro wtf
Before MMA, Bruce Lee wrote in his book that the main targets are the eyes, throat, and groin. But that's combat. In sport you have to follow the rules and forget the most effective techniques that work.
The argument holds no water.
How could you possibly spar in such a way that deadly, blinding attacks are ingrained in the muscle memory.
Of course in ancient times when life was cheap and there were no human rights it was very easy. But these days?
Wing Chun is so effective that Bruce Lee completely abandoned most of it in favor of boxing and kickboxing techniques.
This seems to be a Pro Wing Chun Channel. Like it's the best in the world. When any wrestler could easily take them down and rende all their techniques useless.
@@TangoNevadaWing chun is good to some extent and it does work but in Ip man 3 the fight with Mike Tyson Ip man would be dead

@@bullymaguire6942I already laughed when ip man could take on a muay thai fighter.
I guess this guy never heard of Xu Xiaodong (hope I spelled it right) who has travelled around China beating the crap out of so called Wing Chun experts, among many others, using his MMA training. He's even let some attack him for a while at the beginning before he destroys them.
And that guy isn't even a high level mma fighter hes like on an intermediate level and he still fucks them up
@Adam A. Ya. Wow, good clarification. Easy to miss this fact when watching his videos. You would easily be led to think all Kung Fu is crap against MMA. However, I’d pay lots to see some expert, real, famous Kung Fu pro from China step into the ring with a pro MMA fighter from the USA.
@Adam A. I’m talking about a pure Kung Fu guy that only knows KungFu getting in the ring with an MMA fighter. I tried searching for what you said but don’t see that. Just see vids like this:th-cam.com/video/RekowrObGTI/w-d-xo.html
@@markcarson3215 yes, it would be awesome to see how easily the kung fu only guy gets the shit kicked out of him.
Dude is a legend
When I was young I met a Chinese Master of the Northern Mantis Style who is also a Chinese medicine doctor, a disciple of a famous master in Guangzhou. He said Kung Fu is not for play, it for killing. So much for the so called 'sport'.
Wing Chun still not appearing in mma in full extent, but some guys do use similar techniques to take advantage.
but it took me like, three seconds to google and find out wing chung isnt illegal in the mma, not banned, it's not used because it' s not practical
Then xu xiaodong must be a super hero to beat such a deadly art in seconds
I love watching those. I think the difference is conditioning. He looks like a modern, highly-trained professional athlete. He's clearly in great shape.
No one that he fought looked like that. That's ok, that's their fault. It didn't look like any of them spent time practicing against anything other than their own style. That's something that happens in traditional martial arts.
Then they try to punch a dude that gets punched in practice all the time. On top of cardio for wrestling BJJ? One shot techniques aren't gonna work on someone with a 6 pack.
@@juicicles5881 i know i was sarcastic. Its the training not the sixpack tyson fury proved that
@@dayman161172 For sure, it's training that is the major factor. It's a lot of things, put together in practice that make a difference. Someone that doesn't see hard contact in practice won't know how to deal with it. That's most of getting hit and still being able to keep fighting. Getting hit.
Having ripped abs (mostly I mean strength by "ripped", definition is part of the equation but a lesser one- what you eat makes you cut, mostly, you can be effective without it. You might not have equal stamina as someone that is.) is going to make the other person want to hit you in the gut a second time less. That hurts. The first time I hit someone really strong in the gut it messed with my hand. I was definitely surprised because people in karate and tae kwon do, where I started, then wing chun went down from stuff like that. People in JKD and muay thai needed several. I learned to appreciate wrist wraps and strong abs really quick. People in those classes were a lot more in-shape and hitting them kinda hurt. Lol
@@juicicles5881 you have done karate? Maybe some dont teach it but if you have wrong technique you will dmg you hand. If you have the right technique , angle and right structure then you hand wont hurt yourself from their body alone.You will mostly injure yourself because of your own punching power.
Beeing ripped and having athletic are different things.
You can still have power and stamina even more then ripped guys if you train enough.
Thats why i mentioned tyson fury vs wilder. They both are athletes and fury is fat and still he had more stamina then wilder with same weight.
@@dayman161172 Definitely did train. Yes, you train your wrists and arms to deal with the impact of punching better. Absolutely, the angle of your punch helps you not hurt yourself.
So does not punching with quite Everything, but i learned that outside karate
I always thought it was a little unfair that boxers get to wrap their wrists and fists. ;) Even inject their knuckles with lidocaine before a friggin fight, but only Nevada allows that. Other states don't allow it.
I only meant that it hurts your hand more to punch a rock of muscle than a big belly. Just pain, didn't say there's more chance of injury.
You're right, though, either way someone that has trained *recently in getting gut shots isn't going to go down in one. It takes several. The ways to build that up are good cardio and getting hit.
Wing Chun as a discipline is not banned in MMA. In fact, fighters like Anderson Silva and Tony Ferguson have been known to use certain Wing Chun moves in their fights. However, certain moves in Wing Chun, like eye pokes and groin strikes, are banned in MMA
There have been MMA fighters who employed the Wing Chun eye poke.

This is ridiculous. Wing Chun is not illegal in any MMA fighting organization. Certainly there are techniques you can't use as there are with any martial art.
I studied American Kenpo for years. I can't grab balls, gouge eyes, chop the throat, hit in the back of the head, do 12 to 6 elbows to the head, etc..
I can still enter any MMA competition I want.
Seriously, I thought this was going to be click bait but to hear this claim repeated throughout the video made me laugh.

@@straightupanarg6226 I think American Kenpo (Parker's and his lineage) is a legit style. While I can say that not everything works in a fight I can say that it taught me many concepts that absolutely work in a fight.
I'm a firm believer in starting children out in a traditional MA. That's what I did before studying BJJ and MT in my 20s while in the military.
Wing Chun techniques are illegal, not the style itself. I remember going to my first open tournament. I was told sparring would be different than what I was used to. In Win Chun class, we sparred for three minutes, no stops. Point sparring was alien and I did have to dial back a lot of what I could do.
Eye gouging and groin kicks are such a tiny part of the curriculum of wing chun. Wing chun isn't illegal in mma. It just lacks popularity because there are a lot of bad wing chun schools that do not do sparring. As someone who practices wing chun, I can tell you there is no way in hell you are making this art work without sparring. It's absolutely necessary. Without sparring you'll never get used to taking a punch and you'll never be able to close the distance to the inside where the range is right for wing chun. Wing chun's main advantages that I like are it's deflections, hand traps and ability to feel out where an opponent's limbs are without actually seeing them. Combine wing chun with standard boxing, and you have a versatile striking art. Take BJJ for ground game and you will be a terror.
ok, wing chun is the first martial art I ever practiced and I have tremendous respect for the art, but the video is nonsense. I've noticed from other videos you are a wing chun fanatic and your points are frequently invalid on the matter. Where is it stated in MMA rules that Wing Chun is banned? Do you think that other martial arts didn't think of attacking eyes, groin and throat? Every martial art has these moves. If others can follow rules wing chun fighters should too. I think wing chun practioners don't compete sucessfully in MMA because they lack the right amount of sparring and conditioning, nothing else. And exactly because wing chun has no sport side there are no wing chun athletes with high level of physical conditioning, striking power, stamina etc. Of course there are many wing chun masters with tremendous technic, but that's good for teaching, not for competing.
exactly!!!!
Big dreamer who has just discovered Bruce Lee and Wing chun.
you're right......we've seen how xiaodong pulverized numerous suppposed to be wing chun masters, they didn't have a chance.
this is why we practice with no gear or protection Teaches realistic environment and control Anyone can get a tool box knowing how to use the tools is a different story Amituofo Keep watching the elbow my friend
You are wrong every martial arts don't have these moves. Many do but there is a difference between having moves and a system devoted to these types of techniques. You are wrong about something else too. There are plenty of guys that are devotes of Wing Chun that do spar and train hard. MMA is a sport, not a lethal combat system. It's designed to promote competition not lethal combat.
If Wing Chun is illegal in MMA, nobody told Tony Ferguson and Anderson Silva!
Wing Chun is not illegal in MMA. No martial art is expressly forbidden. Only techniques such as eye gouging, throat grabbing and so on are banned. Such techniques are not exclusive to Wing Chun either. They appear in most traditional martial arts. Shotokan Karate for instance... but that didn't stop Lyoto Machida using Shotokan in MMA.
As more and more people understand BJJ, Anderson Silva is nothing. Most guys in his weight class never learned Judo or Wrestling. That's the only reason Anderson Silva dominated the game in the past. If you go down in the weight classes, you will see wrestlers dominating the game. LOL
All the footage of mma features absolute savage physical specimens while the wing chun guys all look like people that i want doing my taxes
Any Given Sunday, anybody can get that Ass Taxed!
All those technics exist in all striking martial arts , yes punches to the throat , testicles , prostate , back of the neck are part of karate , Tae Kwan do , savate etc
How the hell do you punch someone’s prostate?😆
@@elpato402 You have to learn wing chun first. Only then is it possible!
Yes but there is a difference between having a techniques and developing a system around an understanding a lethal combat. Wing Chun is a specialist style, it was developed for close quarter combat with lethal intent.
@@Ryooken And has never worked against trained fighters.
@@kain7513 who says it's never worked against trained Fighters? History 101: the story of Ip Man was based around the Boxer Rebellion Chinese history Wing Chun was one of the systems that was used against all comers. Again you guys think that you know because you see something on MMA with something of that nature, Trust and Believe MMA is based on a lot of things in those Fighters and hand-picked they are not the best the baddest the bravest and the Bold. I know a guy who used Wing Chun in prison. So don't tell me that it doesn't work against trained Fighters. They're trained Fighters as well.
I did Wing Chun for two years. Learned under a Sifu who learned from Ip Chun. It’s seriously a whole bunch of ‘trust me bro’ the sifus love talking about multiple fights they’ve had like a kid on a playground, but then tell you the best fighter diffuses every situation. Then they’ll tell you we don’t spar because ‘wing Chun is designed to kill or seriously incapacitate.’ They say this as though other MARTIAL arts weren’t designed for the same reason
After my first two months of Muay Thai I felt confident I was way more capable in a fight than Wing Chun, because well…we actually sparred… then you’re training for competitive fighting. Any martial art where you can fight trained fighters, from boxers to Ju Jitsu you are far more capable than most Wing Chun practitioners. You could argue I am biased because I then became a Muay Thai Coach, but at least it’s an art that practices what it preaches
I learn from Feliox Leong who was taught by Ip Chun and he came to Adealide for a week and I train with at Wing Chun seminars. Wing Chun depends on how you train and what you training for.
I agree. Most Wing Chun schools refuse to spar, which makes all of the students teachings pretty much useless.
I know only of one school where there is sparring, and it is brutal. I believe they could easily do quite some damage in MMA if combined with a few bjj techniques for ground fighting since they don't really have thechniques for these situations.
@@tilmannbeyme5049 wing chun without sparing is like swimming without getting in the water.
@@tilmannbeyme5049 Not sure, there was a fighter way back who did Wing Chun and got absolutely rinsed in MMA. The one thing I will say is it did give me good handspeed
@@raphaellopez9290 Idk I’ve never seen a traditional wing Chun school that promotes sparring. Chi Sau does not count IMO
Everybody have fun tonight...
Just to say, on my first day learning Wing Chun? I was taught Bong Sau. Swivel the incoming punch away from you, grab the punch arm with your other hand and just lean your body weight onto your arm doing your bong sau and you dislocate your opponent's elbow. Do it quickly? Which, by the end of the first day? Yeah? You can do it? You go from punch being thrown at you to dislocated apponent's elbow in under 1/2 a second. It's all just one, fluid movement. Feels good to do as well. I asked what to do after that? My Sifu said they should grab the arm and go to ground. Then just stamp or kick the head. Wing Chun man. It's absolutely brutal. And that's the real problem with it - you simply can't use it. It's all eyes, throat, balls, popping joints and elbows to a kneeling opponent's back of the neck. Or throat. And if you miss and elbow their jaw? Meh, just try again. And it's all just one fluid movement. I watched a guy do his final trials for unarmed combat before he began his pole training? Dude. He was simply devastating. He was going from punch thrown at him to kill in under 2 seconds. Wing Chun is just murder, death, kill. All the techniques are just ways of using your apponents weight to set up and deliver the death blow.
“From fast punches, to leg kicks” Shows not a leg kick.
Also, people don’t dislike Jon Jones for his leg kicks. Why would they. There are, like, a couple hundred better reasons to dislike him.
Yeah but oblique kicks are still pretty controversial
A lot of fighters have called Jones front kick to the knee dirty and say he’s a pos for using them.

As many of the comments have correctly observed, this video clearly shows that the people responsible for this video understand next to nothing about Wing Chun or MMA. Wing Chun is primarily about occupying center line and not meeting force with force. Many of its principles are indeed applicable in MMA, and are used frequently, but not under the banner of "Wing Chun". A PURE Wing Chun practitioner, however, would fare incredibly poorly in MMA, lacking sufficient knowledge of grappling, ground fighting, and a number of other techniques to defend themselves intelligently. Everything in fighting is about positional advantage, first and foremost. Any half-way intelligent modern martial artist understands this, and will therefore cross-train in a variety of styles and disciplines. It is entirely possible we will one day see an MMA champion who utilizes Wing Chun as their primary style, but NOT without adapting it for cage fighting. And NOT because eye-gouging, throat grabbing, ball kicking, or oblique kicks are "deadly" or "unfair" tactics, but simply because they are totally useless if you aren't in a position to execute them. In fact, these techniques are used all the time in MMA; either the fighter gets a warning, point deduction, OR they straight-up get away with it if the ref doesn't see or doesn't care. But yes; certain techniques are barred from usage in sports fighting to minimize the risk of injury. That certainly doesn't mean they aren't ever used, however.
Just not having a game plan for the ground is the greatest weakness of most of the eastern disciplines. They all have promise and potential when you are on your feet, but if it can’t adapt to the reality of unpredictable combat especially being taken to the ground it’s useless in a street fight and MMA. I don’t remember the quote or who said it, I think it was Bruce Lee, but it was along the lines of a “martial artist thats trained his whole life, will almost always lose to a grappler and boxer with only a year of training.”
"Wing Chun is primarily about occupying center line and not meeting force with force. "
Not really unique to Wing Chun watch any boxer working rope drill. Where boxing dominates "traditional martials arts" is techniques done off the centerline. Inside angle, outside angle, open angled, closed angled,
Word
A more detailed contention, one I would like you to contest if you are inclined, is that Wing Chun is a bad style for technique reasons.
The contention goes: there is more bad than good in Wing Chun, the footwork and positioning is bad. What is good in Wing Chun can be found better in other martial arts: the centerline is used in all striking arts, punching off the parry is taght in Muay Thai and boxing with better set up.
You suggested a fighter might use Wing Chun as a foundation. I want to know: what is uniquely good in that style?
@@lordpisces5019 Back to fighting on the centerline. Pernell Whitaker could fight 12 rounds in a phonebooth and never get hit.

thats his point, you cant use it in sparring or a match because you could blind someone or explode their balls or crush their wind pipe. Wing chun isnt designed as a sport to have sparring at matches its designed to terminate someone as quick as you can. if you had someone really use wing chun with no rules someone would end up seriously hurt. Every other martialk art has rules. wing chun has no rules, this is the problem hes pointing out. the reason people in wing chun "matches" get worked is because usually they are limited as to what they can do, whereas their training there is no limitations its a very dirty style of fighting. In mma theres no hitting in back of head, eyes, throat, groin, boxing no kicking, karate no knee kicks no groin kicks, thats why he mentioned jon jones gets looked down on for the wing chun knee kicks is because you could tear someones ligmanents or bust their knee cap with that kick, its a dirty kick, thats why people cant "playfully" fight with wing chun you will end up blind or not be able to walk for 6 months or get ur throat smashed. Its dirty fighting and thats not allowed in "sport" martial arts. wing chun and silat are designed to kill and use dirty techniques they arent meant for the ring or for full speed practicing. if the wing chun people could use the illegal moves itd be a diff story guy.
play by wing chun rules, one eye gouge ur mma fighter is useless...
Short answer: it isn't in the slightest bit illegal in MMA.
Long answer: there isn't any Wing Chun because it's a martial art designed for very different purposes. Wing chun is primarily designed for a smaller person to defend against attacks. Wing Chun has never been about offense, except to incapacitate an opponent that will attack you after you've defeated them.
Wing Chun is for DEFENSE
UFC craves OFFENCE
Go frig yourself, you got it all wrong
That and it’s not effective.
Samuel Kwok called BS on this notion of WC being pure defense long ago. WC has nothing in common with Aikido philosophy. The international WC league is WC at its core.
Wing chun was originally meant for assassination. Kicks were not in wing chun at first. It was frowned upon by the grandmasters. It was also a female martial art. The real IP man learned it from a female who was a master among grandmasters. Her style was a softer but more effective version of wing chun.
6:30 My character in the UFC 4 game is centered around kicking the lower abdomen and legs of his opponents to destroy them entirely so they can fight anymore, rather than going for knock outs or submissions. The game doesn't prevent you from doing something loke this, but in an MMA match in real life, it would absolutely get banned because you could essily kill your opponent with a lot of the techniques in many martial arts. Capoeria, for example, can use their lethal upward kicks and a lot of the dance like techniques they have because they can instantly kill people. Muy Tai can't use a lot of their elbow or knee techniques for the same reason. Many of the Wing Chun techniques are illegal in MMA due to the same reason, which is why Wing Chun is more for self defense in street brawls or fighting hand to hand in war.
When you confuse the words illegal and ineffective.
Did you really leave out wrestling from “the most popular art forms that viewers will see?” It’s not like the majority of world champions have come from an amateur wrestling background or anything…. Big miss!
More world champs started in wrestling than jiu jitsu, for sure. Not that there's anything wrong with jiu jitsu... Just wrestling is a place that people train hard and are constantly pressure-tested against very aggressive opponents. You go through years of really intense practices and the people that are still doing it in college are some tough sobs. It's a good start for a world champion's Drive and work ethic
But he added savate and capoeria
compare the number of wrestlers who compete and the number of wing chun guys who compete. Of course their will be more wrestlers that are very physical and talented vs. the average Wing Chun guy who trains less and is less competitive
My thoughts exactly!
I’m a Boxer so I would have left out RRRaslers too lol
Yes I get beat up on Grappling nights at the Gym for some reason lol
These techniques are illegal in any sport. Every fight style has some form attacks to the throat by gouging breaking bones. And wing Chung has been used in the MMA
Agreed. I even think it's ridicolous to think, that attacks to vital points are specific to wing chun or any other martials arts. Whenever a martial art becomes a competetive full contact sports, it's no of no ones interest to cripple your opponent. However you can still attack joints, eyes, throat and testicles with many techniques and I rather get hit by some wing chun mcdojo artist than from a trained boxer or similar.
May I ask by who? I don't watch much MMA
@@vexmartialartsgaming7454 there are a few of them. off the top of my head i cannot think of their names but they use techniques like front kick to the front leg as the opponent advances then followed with hand strikes.

Just a space heater hooked up with an extension cord. It would have worked. Okay so I thank the10% of you who know enough to call this out, the rest of you, we all need Amazon logistics managers. So not saying college never gets things wrong but it's much better than Wiki thinking Wing Chung came from the movie IP Man. So here's what I was taught at a credible 4 year University. One of China's 1st Dynasties were taking huge loses every time they captured a Shaolin temple. 20 monks killed with no armor or simple braided silk would kill the 1st Dynasty by there accounts in the 20 to 30 people range. (History is written by the winners) Others claimed in the hundreds, the truth probably closer to the former.
So one day they dragged a few out alive and demanded they teach there skill, they said no they were to busy trying to break the record of the fasted head roll in history. which it was probably pretty darn close. the last Monk said, yeah f@ck all that, what do you want to know? so he boiled the lifetime art of Shaolin Kung Fu, thousands of forms and styles into just 108 moves you can master in under a year. bare bones kung fu, not pretty, or fair, but now they had a chance, as for are trader monk, well if he sold out his own family would you ever trust him? They burned him alive upside down with a pick hammered in his mouth so he couldn't speak in his last moments. And just like all arts Martial Wing Chung has some brutal moves, and ridiculous ones too. it isn't "secret" and Steven Seagal didn't ban it like how he's banned from Waffle House. It's meant to be used super quick then you run like hell.
"They're not trying to kill eachother"
- Repeatedly punches opponent in the head while he's unconscious on the floor.

I just love when people who does not know shit about fighting start talking about all the "illegal moves" in various martial arts. Wing Chun is not "illegal" in competitions, it simply does not work. Even if it was a no rules, kill or be killed competition, MMA would still be better...
Also, mma fighters can eye gouge and throatpunch people too....
You can't say MMA is better than Wing Chun. MMA is not a style, Wing Chun is so therefor it is not comparable.
Wing Chun, like most a lot of traditional arts in itself can't be used as a style in an MMA match but you can definitely take some techniques from it to add to your MMA style, for example the hand trapping.

That's why I learned Krav Maga, Drunken style Kung Fu, Boxing, Wrestling, and sword fighting. Krav Maga literally tells you to do whatever is necessary to kill or neutralize your opponent as quickly and efficiently as possible. Drunken style kung fu teaches you to be unpredictable and gives your opponents a false sense of arrogance, boxing teaches you timing and footwork and teaches you to end a fight before it gets to the ground, wrestling teaches you to end it once it does get to the ground. Sword fighting is just a fun skill to have. I have actually been in a legit sword fight before. I didn't kill the other guy but I did show him I could have. What can I say, there can be only one.

Connor McGregor said on Joe Rogan's podcast that the mere though of facing a wing chun student makes him wet himself. Both Diaz brothers are known to have literally gone home crying to their mother when told they might have to fight an wing chun trained opponent. Gordan Ryan said he will never compete in a MMA match due to the risk of facing a wing chun opponent and therefore will forever cower in the grappling world rather than face a paragon art like wing chun.

It is not banned. Minor details of it is banned, but those same details exist in TKD, Karate, etc, which are also not banned styles...
Wing Chun, per se, is not illegal. It's just that some of the some of the techniques taught in Wing Chun are illegal, but that can be said for A LOT of martial arts. If you take a go to a Jiu Jitsu school that focuses on self defense and not just sport, there is plenty you can't use in an MMA ring. I've trained Krav Maga for 20 years; there is A LOT you learn in Krav Maga that you can't use in a ring. But just like Krav teaches elbow strikes to the back of the neck, for example, that doesn't mean you can't use a lot of what you can learn in Krav. It just means you can't use elbow strikes to the back of the neck, and the same would apply to any martial art that teaches that.
Therefore, this video is stupid and misleading.

Punching someone really hard in the back of the head is illegal. That doesn't mean that boxing is banned in MMA.
There is NOTHING that Wing Chun does that boxing doesn't do better. I'd go so far as to say that Wing Chun is close to being functionally useless, which is why almost nobody uses it. Every single time someone says "this style isn't used in competition because so many of its techniques are illegal and/or too dangerous" that's code for "this style doesn't actually work in reality."
You can lump Krav Maga in there too. Krav Maga is the honey badger of martial arts; internet memes and massive overhype has turned it into something it isn't.

Not including wrestling in “the most popular art forms you’ll see” should be a crime
You’ll also see Zen Do Kai karate which translates to the best of everything, it’s an Australian karate style that was founded in the 1970s it takes the most effective moves from karate, Maui Thai, jujitsu, BBJ and a few others. They have their own spin on certain moves aswell.

@ 4:00mins in there is a real life vampire.
I have been a wing chun man for thirty years or more. The only technique you wouldn't use is biu gee, finger strikes to the eyes. But if you can hit a target as small as an eye, you should be able to land a punch to the jaw for a knock out. Everything else is fine. Knee kicks, fine. Elbows, fine. Groin kicks? we don't really have groin kicks in Wing Chun. There is a lifting kick but mostly the kicks are for breaking the opponents stance. The reason you don't see Wing Chun in MMA is that it's not designed to use against a trained fighter. In a class you have a punch thrown so you can practice your responses. You do chi sau to develop sensitivity when you have arm to arm contact. But go visit a boxing gym and ask respectfully if you can get in a ring and spar with a guy who has trained more than six months and you will find most of your techniques are useless. Do this regularly and you will throw away half of what you know and make the rest work. Also you need to run, skip do bag work to have the lungs to fight for any period of time. In the end if your goal is to be a fighter it's more efficient to learn to box. If like me you do it because you enjoy it and it gives you an advantage over someone who is not a trained fighter stick with Wing Chun.
Then why bother to learn it if it doesn't work ? 🤔 Might as well learn yoga for self defense. 😁
@@mountaintiger6945 I didn't say it doesn't work for self defense. If all you are interested in is self defense there are easier to learn systems, but once learned then what? A martial art is for most people a hobby, something they enjoy doing a few times a week for fun, fitness and to continually master new skills. Thousands of people ride horses every week. How many race competitively? So why bother riding? Life isn't all about competition and self defense.
This is why i don’t enter MMA. My wing chun would kill everyone easily
Prove it
🤣 i tried to enter mma too but as soon as i did a 5 meter floating throat kick followed by a machine gun finger of fury eye gounge they were like NOPE not round here m8!
When I used to compete mma, I would tell people ALL the time.
"If your a fighter, and each fight dictates whether you got paid half or not, wouldnt YOU, do everything in your power to win"???
Why is there little to NO Wing Chun being shown in fights where there are millions at stake?
