Fighting by their rules does not mean fighting their style...I fought those fights because they were offered to me, and they wouldn't fight San Shou rules.
If I was to fight TKD tomorrow that doesn't mean that I learned their kicks to fight them... |

You just look at the leg-kicks thrown by kung fu people in the 60's.. Now look at San Shou today. Hmm... no Muay Thai influence? I think somebody needs to open his eyes.

 Kung-fu kicks by who in the 60's? It's difficult if not impossible to pigeon hole things like that...
I know what my style does, and I know what Muay Thai does...We are not Muay Thai plain and simple...
You have to go beyond your North American Discovery Channel World....

ken, since you're the resident bruce lee authority, didn't he film a movie in thailand and didn't he have some interaction with some thai extras that showed him their version of the roundhouse? and bruce adopted this style kick into jkd?
if i'm correct on this story(and i believe i am) if this style of kick is used in china, wouldn't a man from china know it already and not have to be shown the kick from someone in another country? |

I am not sure of that. I'm not a Bruce Lee biographer.
