Some of you guys are confusing karate/martial arts, with Gracie Bary Bazilian Jiu jitsu. There is a big difference. I agree, karate is almost usless in a real fight, same with Kung Fu. I took Xing Yi for a couple months, we did a little bit of sparing but that will not help you much in a real fight.
But, 'usually' if you get in a real fight. .it only takes a few seconds until both of you are grabbing each other. An average person will just charge you and tackle you. Thats why the jiu jitsu works so well. And that is also why the best guys in the Pride fighting and UFC all have a wrestling history or does jiu jitsu.
With that said, even if a guy is very skilled in jiu jitsu, it will still take a pretty big guy to take down the guy in the video.

Both of them would get their a$$es handed to em by any real fighter. That was pittiful. The blue shorts was in poor shape, and looked scared. White shorts owned him, but only because the other guy didn't know how to get out of the way of the wild punches.
Sure, they were both jacked, like they just got out of prison, but horrible fighters. If they can't find the stamina for that fight, what do they expect to happen when it goes to the ground, like any serious fight does?
UFC? They'd get choked out in 20 seconds.

Honestly, those guys really didn't know much about a fight, all they had going for them was being decently muscular. Im currently in my 5th year of closed ring sparring (boxing basically, with a few different rules) and it was pretty obvious after the first 20 seconds that they don't know what they are doing when it comes to even throwing a punch. Everytime theyd go to make a move, they would either fortell it by swinging the body slightly, or dropping their hands, and then leave their hands down as they watched the punch follow through. They swung randomly and didn't have much showing of a knowing for how to throw a decent punch, just how to swing their arms with their strength...

If I have to "think" about what move I'm going to do, I'm finished in a real street fight. Fighting happens in an instant. No time for thinking. That's why we train with natural body movements. This, in my opinion, is one of the most effective training methods. If it's unnatural, you have to "think" about it and that can cost you in a real survival situation.
Good discussion. I like how people from different backgrounds and expierences share their thoughts about fighting. :thumbsup:
