That was pretty odd. I hope to god you don't really do that, otherwise I'd have to agree with everything you say! :p

Iceman · 05-26-07, 12:45 AM

Even worse - until 15 years ago or so, I used to do it - with sticks and swords!

Just that I did not use to leave the ground that high...

U-533 · 05-26-07, 05:30 AM

what was that?

some sort of "break dancing" or something?

THAT is minor league (local) Professional Wrestling... American style.

Think Hulk Hogan on a budget... or drunk teenagers hitting each with bottles and tables in the back yard.

Although, that one guy is quite good at the acrobatic stuff.

You guys know its fake.

Cheers,

That "one guy" who is constantly flying around - is a "guynesse".

Never saw wrestling that was not a faked show. That does not mean that top physical fitness and a lot of acrobativ competence is not needed for that stuff. Although I personally find it simply stupid, and not even entertaining.

Even Baseball seems to be more exciting than wrestling

Personally, I'm a fan of Mixed Martial Arts... now that's some serious beating.

The UFC, although the best known, seems to be amongst the least technical, prefering instead to feature fighters who like to take and dish out beatings.

The Japanese original, Pride FC, has much more technically able fighters, and is even more brutal since they allow standing elbows (as I recall) and head strikes (including knees) to grounded fighters, so I prefer Pride when I can get it.

Cheers,
David

Another freestyler - be my guest, then! A mixture of Wing Tsun, Eskrima sticks, Japanese sword and some ingredients from other things did the trick for me back then. No longer training, though, since far over ten years. Only occasionally maintaining my swords, and once or twice a year let a couple of arrows fly (Korean special bow). 20 additonal pounds in weight speak for themselves!

I'm getting old, dammit...
