To Understanding Pacquiao's past martial arts influence...

[TheMagicMan]

Bruce Lee was a Wing Chun Kung Fun stylist, influenced by Choy Li Fut, Tai Chi, Western Fencing, Jujitsu and others to teach his own JEET KUNE DO.

Bruce Lee as an actor is what he was known for initially but he was a street fighter in Hong Kong as well. Same thing can be said with actor Steven Seagal who is a real Aikidoka and a high level teacher BEFORE he became a known actor.

Dude Steven Segal was a child ******or before becoming an actor, you actually believe that Aikido ****? You do realize there is no real fighting in Aikido right? You like move and youre supposed to pretend things do stuff to you, segal just always pretends like opponents moves dont effect him. And theres no proof to Bruce Lees street fighting and he refused to actually do tourneys with top guys.

Stallone on the other hand is a freaking beast, you see that body mass? Holy ****.

But I remember seeing his pictures in a FMA with a bolo (sword/machete)...long time ago. And he grew up in Southern Mindanao (General Santos City) in which many ******s also practice their own called Silat (variations of Filipino/Malaysian/Indonesian) art and even the Kuntao/Kuntaw...

This is from 1982 I believe.

I will say that being from the island, it's only natural that he would have an interest in the Filipino arts since he's a big B. Lee fan. In the meantime, his involvement has only been hearsay, unless he's chosen to keep his practice private.

Dude Aikido is like dancing, they dont actually spar or fight, they dance, and then youre supposed to pretend that moves are hitting you, its bull****. They dont actually apply wristlocks, they mime them, Segal is infamous for not going along with his opponents moves and for applying real pressure on his moves.
