| first i agree. i know there are many in korea who dont train for olympic sparring but still more than in any other country, if im correct. afer all the best TKD sparrers should be from Korea not from The U.S. right?(not my opinion)
i know taking a hit isn't the only way to become a good fighter. but it would seem that being hit different ways makes your brain remember those attacks, and set ups, and when it comes again, your brain will notice it, and you will most likely react and not get hit by the same tachnique. im not saying this is the only way just the way, my Instrucor trained us.

Being able to take a hit, isnt the only tactic of being a good fighter....

and someone can truly state anything about any art or anything by having a bad expierience with it, or seeing it through biased eyes. or by seeing someone related to these arts get beat up.
In my opnion.
Pls. what is your opinion on this matter 47MartialMan? |
