Interesting video, very well made. But IMO, while WC in real-life application, i.e. fighting, will be much freer than in practice and might look very "rough and tumble" ...it is still WC not JKD. There is a lot in that video that is not my idea if WC. It may be JKD, it may use some WC principles, and it may be effective. Just not the WC I train and know.

Also, I have some real doubts about using Bruce Lee's movies as a source for practical fighting techniques.

Yea, you're on to something.....and the first rule of AZFCBKGA4PC club could be nobody talks about AZFCBKGA4PC club.

And the main reason no one talks about AZFCBKGA4PC club is they can't remember the damn initials

Haha! I had to edit the post 10 times cause I couldn't even remember it long enough to transfer it into an acronym. Image after I take a few of those bare-knuckle shots once we start this fight club.:blackeye:

I'm afraid I have to opt out. I live some 1800 miles away and wouldn't be able to make the weekly meetings.
Do you have a chapter anywhere in the eastern part of the US?

Don't worry; your wives will leave you when you get involved in fight club. Then no more problems
