This is a duplicate of a thread I started on MAP, but thought as there are more US bullies that US MAPPers it might find more fertile ground here.
I have seen some utter **** in takedown defence videos - from William Cheung to Systema to every art in between...but this is perhaps some of the most delusional fucking bollocks I have seen. In fact it is up there with the Ashida Kim "leapfrog double leg defense".
First alerted to it by BJJ underground, I watched in utter disbelief at the **** drizzling down my screen
Lousy mechanics, no commitment and absoutley no concept of what he is actually defending against.....frankly I have seen Boris Karloff in "The Mummy" have a smoother closing of the gap
But wait!! He has ANOTHER video that he suggests we watch because it shows INTENSITY!!! RARRRRR!!!!!
Craptacular
Clearly someone ruffled this morons feathers....alright it was me...... because then we get ANOTHER one (I absolutely pity his son btw for (a) having to act like his dad can actually do martial arts and (b) having to sell for him......you can almost see his mouth say "damn I wish I was aborted")
However note his open invitation to go and try it to see if you can take him down!
So here is my proposition - he offers his son $200 for a takedown...anyone near him fancy earning an easy 2 tonne and bragging rights?
Oh and if you are reading this Mr David Rappaport, I still put the burden onto YOU to prove your technique against someone who can actually perform a takedown...it is not up to the martial arts world to stamp in every dog turd that we find on the path, even though yours is a steamer
Oh, and you're a prick
(sometimes it's good to be off the ToS leash......)
