I know many of you would now argue that Master Wong does go up and against real fighters and slays them. Well no. What he shoots for the video is in no way an actual fight. And the people in his videos have poor skills.
Don’t trust me? Go look at any of his videos. He is always facing someone who over-commits, throws a weak punch, gets taken down. These are just a few of the things that I noticed.
As a kickboxer and a martial arts practitioner, one thing I know for sure is that every technique that you apply will have a different effect on your opponent based upon how they choose to deal with it.
If you’ve ever been in a sparring session or in any form of competition, you’d feel the real adrenaline of what it takes to overcome the challenges.
And these are not some telegraphed and choreographed moves but rather how good are you at defeating your opponent by applying timing, speed, skill, strength and luck.
Personally, I see Wong’s claim as disrespectful to people who have had to faced heavy hitters from the streets. Because his drills certainly won’t help you hang in there for long.
