When stuff goes down, which art WOULDN’T you want to have spent 10 years of your life studying?
Wushu sure does suck. I think it must have been created on another planet for its originator to believe it could EVER be applied. Pretty much ANY Kung Fu licks my azz. Aikido would be a close second. Truely a WORTHLESS peice of Shid. Pretty much EVERYTHING up there sucks except for Catch Wrestling and BJJ.
I bet wcsg from ADCC would give BOTH his nutz to live in a world where Monkey Kung Fu actually worked. Wush too for that matter.
Haha so true. But WTFIMDUMB can’t say anything because this site probably scares him.
Dude, I can’t believe
-
Capoeira got more votes than Wushu. Haven’t you guys seen “Only the Strong”? Man! and…
-
Ninjutsu isn’t on this list. Wait, I can believe that, because ninjutsu is the most useful art in the world!!! If I studied Ninjutsu for 10 years and stuff went down, I would FLIP OUT and kill everyone in the room, even the people on my side, because I’d be a ninja and I’d cut off heads all the time and not even think twice about it!
…And that’s what I can REAL Ultimate Power!!!
are you the dude who made that site, or just a fan?
either way i love it
Every time I visit that site, I flip out and start cutting people’s heads off!
By the way, has anyone seen Ninjaburger.com?
Phrost, I’m just wondering, what ungodly enviornment spawned something like Peedee? Why would anyone talk about martial arts that they know nothing about, have never practiced, and probably have never fought against, unless they were too stupid to understand how they could be applied? What the Hell is wrong with that guy?
Oh, as for Ninjaburger…30 minutes are up!
And btw, there are very few ‘useless’ martial arts. It’s your training methods that suck.
Good TKD? Korean military, Muksodo. Any of those guys will rip you a new asshole in seconds.
You can’t base a martial art’s effectiveness on something as narrow-minded as NHB application or what you’ve seen or heard of it. To give you an honest opinion, most Americans who practice traditional martial arts suck. Simple as that. They are shit. But you can’t base a martial art’s effectiveness on its dumbass practitioners.
That’s just your sorry-ass, complacent attempt to make yourself feel better about what style you’re taking. Either contribute something productive or shut the fuck up before you make an ass of yourself again.
HEY!! Whats up Bidch?
If I was a Police profiler I would portray you in one of two ways.
a. Someone who has WASTED years of training time(Like myself) believing that Real fights looked like ‘Enter the Dragon’ or that you become STRONGER everytime you yell KEE-AYE during your Kata class.
b. Someone who was just gotten into the Martial Arts recently and has had the VERY unfortunate luck of being reccomended to a Kung Fu academy, in which case, ALL o the above applies as well.
You can bidch and cry and DREAM that because you know 6 Katas and wear a Karate Costume that you are a capable and knowledgeable person in Martial Arts. You dont know Jack.
You have no idea for how long I trained or in what styles. You just saw the Karate Kid and instantly KNEW that YOU were Daniel San and would one day become Mr Miyagi.
You will one day recieve the help you so desperately need.
Wushu isn’t that useless, it’s practitioners make lots of money in movies.
That’s true migo <img src=icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle> however I picked TKD as the most worthless.
Wushu is for performance not use so i voted for it.

THANK YOU!
I’ve been trying to get that point across to some people myself without success. It irks me big time when someone refers to KungFu styles as “Hung Gar Wushu” or “Choy Lay Fut WuShu” etc.
I bet wcsg from ADCC would give BOTH his nutz to live in a world where Monkey Kung Fu actually worked. Wush too for that matter.

First, I know a Monkey styleist, and it IS a very effective art. The issue is who you learn it from and weather or not your doing the “Paulie Zink” Wu Shu dance art, or the real thing. Hint, if your dancing around like a monkey, you’ve got the wrong one.
As for having Wu Shu in the poll, that is idiocy as Wu Shu is a performance art used by movie makers and live stage performers, and it’s not MEANT to teach you to fight. Having it in the poll is the same as asking if going to Krusty’s Clown school is the best place to learn to fight. Or trying to learn english by taking a math class.
Good Kung Fu is out there. And I think if you went to a Kou Shou tournament sometime, you’d see some damm good fighters. I’ve always wondered why the UFA Pride MMA types never compete in Kou Shou or San Shou. Could it be they can’t hack it?
Oh, one more thing, why do so many people look at Wu Shu and “Think” it is real kung fu anyway???

Simple,
Because there are WuShu stylists out there that try to sell it as the real KungFu, and as a martial art.
I know, for a while I believed it myself. The only thing I learned from WuShu was how to slap the ground really hard with a stick and impress people ignorant of real Kung Fu.
Hey RD don’t post to defensively without getting insulted.
Wushu actually means “martial art” while Kungfu means “hard work”. So saying Hung gar, Choy Lay Fut or even BJJ is wushu isn’t wrong. So the definition mixes people up.
What we in the west call wushu is a performance art with a little bit of kungfu, gymnastics, and dance mixed together for performance. It was created by the communist government of china about 50 years ago. San shou was also created by the Chinese government to train their troops they also created a sport version which falls under the “contemporary wushu” category. San shou is effective and has actually defeated Muay Thai in Thailand recently.
See we can argue about definitions all day but we all know what was meant by "wushu’
I was under the impression that Wushu was for movies, and not a true fighting art (at least not anymore)
I was under the impression that Wu Shu was the stuff with the little pancakes.
