Even more recent martial arts history tells tales of blood on the mats, missing teeth, and broken ribs that I witnessed myself in the fifties and sixties. Such training really doesn’t exist today. Too many lawyers and too many videos where you can get your black belt in your living room without breaking a sweat. Besides who has the time while you’re trying to make a living, pay your bills, and send your kids to college. Ed Parker Sr. used to always say, “There is no such thing as a part time ninja.”
Great post, but in this last part, I personaly think it's the lawyers that prevent hard fighting. There are people out there who do fight hard (dog brothers for example) but even if there where any there who would like to fight harder, how could they? Sooner or latter they would have a lawsuit. Now I'm not saying the majority of people aren't lazy, but through out history the best martial artists were not "average" people.
