It is the everlasting question of what is better. my simple answer is, that none of them is. nothing is. the situation determines the solution, not the technique, system, martial art. In the selfdefense world we need to discover and uncover our way of moving and fighting. We as coaches need to find our individual path through everything, humans have found out in fighting and teach. There is nothing new, we need to combine. Good video, as usual, Kevin. Your channel is solid.
if you can take a step faster than he can jab, either your name is Bruce Lee, or his punches are so slow that he's no threat at all. A good jab is .15 second or faster, You can't even see or hear a signal to fire and pull trigger that fast, much less see a movement AND take a step. FAR better to just cover up your head and ribs with your forearms and learn to use the Chinese "golf putt' type kick at his shins/knees. Alternate feet as you kick and rotate your angle so that your toes are angled outward, making your weapon as wide as possible, so you dont miss his leg. The impact area is the inside arch of your foot, Keep your arms, head and upper body rotating/shifting a lot, so that his punches miss their target. After he cant walk, due to your kicks, you can do whatever you wish to him.
That's what I was thinking, no one leaves their arm hanging out like that for the other person to do moves. If he's doing a jab, it's going to be fast, out and back. If someone drops their guard he's getting hit in the face with a left hook. In the video, the coach drops his guard and opens up his entire side for a left. It would have been better to try his wing chun by stepping in and left, parry that right and keep his right arm a little extended to block the angle for the left punch. Now his own left is free, a strike under the ribs, then a strike to the ear. The person will stagger. Jump on his right leg and continue to keep on his opponent's right, keep your right hand guarding and continue to punish with the left. The key here is to step in as soon as he starts to parry, and expect the other person to throw that left. You might get grazed, but your right is out and minimizing it. Land your left, he's starting to turn, land your left on his ear, he's trying distance, jump on his right knee. Keep your right out and blocking and left punch to his ear or temple again. You want to end that fight in 3 or 4 movements that are quite brutal.
it doesn't take all that much to be able to escape from the untrained man, if the floor surface is not slippery, you're not knee deep in snow, water, sand, etc, it's light enough to see that he's a threat and you're both on your feet. You'll suffer some hits, but they wont be all that damaging. All that you have to do is cover up with your forearms while you kick at his shins/knees. Once he can't walk properly, flee. The "black belt" SHOULD mean that you can handle the un-trained man even if he jumps upon you while you're sleeping, in a dark room. I literally did this as a soldier, in Korea. A fellow student jumped on me, holding my blanket in a way that "pinned' it up under my chin. I INSTANTLY got a "goose-neck" wrist lock on him, , stood up, the blanket dangling between us, walked him over to his bunk, threw him down on it, retrieved my blanket from the floor and went back to bed. I later overheard him telling a guy "that mofo is dangerous even when he's SLEEPING!". :-)
Kevin. After you hit him the first or second time, shouldn't he be affected to allow you to be ahead in time so that you land additional blows? We don't spar, but we do a lot hits in the drills where the opponent is affected.
when you can kick properly , you have a 'rifle". Stay out of the range of his "pistol (arms) and the odds will favor you a lot. It takes about 50 hours of instruction/critique/practice to master this response, , but it works amazingly well. The training has to be spread out over a couple of months, to let your body get used to it. You will NOT learn this in 1-2 weeks, guys.
I’m a Jiujitsu guy… brown belt. Sooo my striking knowledge is low. But not nonexistent. I’ve always thought south paw was the better stance. I know the argument of wanting you dominant hand further to generate more force… but I’ve always thought non-dominant hand coming from further away equals out your weapons. Although I’m fan of switching stances. Boxing, or wrestling 9:56 I used weapons for lack of better words when I said it, but that’s funny
I started with Royce Gracie, then trained more with Hawkins Cheung. These days, I would first try to deescalate the situation. Then fight if cornered and run. I know nothing about boxing. These days, you never know who will have a handgun or an edged weapon. Then... game over.
Boxers are trained everyday to take punches and punches! Wing chun? Its a question mark even if you apply all your techniques to a boxer chances are he can take your punches unlike wing chun guy his body is not trained everyday to take HEAVY PUNCHES. So always remember boxers are heavy punchers and thier bodies are extremely trained everyday to take heavy punches.

What are public opinions on Silat?

Yes, strict is more worthy than free style, but opinion varies in novice.
Guro Dan said WC is more for. Closer distances WC works good in a bathroom he said
Is Danny Inosanto still teaching?
@dtna yes he is older but still has his Academy in Cali and I think last year did a few traveling seminars. I went to one oh his before covid
In a bathroom, hallway, airplane, train, bus, parking lot. Any confined space or a space you make confined.
