malaysia mah...
you guys ever thought of joining jiujitsu?
ground game very important especially if u meet a
wrestler... he can't win u in terms of striking, but once
he takes you down(and he will), gg.com
I'll tell you one thing, jiujitsu is a nice sport to learn, but it's hardly applicable. It may be applicable if you're at a high level already, but if your opponent is a practicioner of a hard martial art like karate, you're as good as tofu.
All that grappling moves I learnt and all, I've never once actually found them of any use. My brother comes to me with a flying kick, there's no way I'm going to consider holding his toes and snapping him down. I'll break my fingers if I try that.
They say about grappling hard on the ground, but when I saw how fast a MMA fighter can escape a ground grapple, I told myself, forget it jiujitsu.

So they want malaysian martial artists to hit soft and do soft things?

Excellent question. What dumbfck rules right? I cannot hit hard, I cannot hit with the powerful techniques learnt, I can only use turning kicks which is practically bullshit because they don't allow u to use your toes, u can only use the flat part of your feet to make a loud sound.
They actually encourage you to scream louder than ur opponent to frighten them. SPORT? Bullshit.......................taekwondo's a joke lemme tell you this. And before someone says I'm some n00b or crap, i am a black belt and almost took my second dan test, before these stoopid bullcrap came up.
