That whole mentality of just mimicking martial arts movies and being able to transform into an elite fighter on the spot seems to be over with, or at least on the decline.
    This is more of a game that happens in some of the Asian countries, and this is boxing not MMA, you would see this sort of "Boxing" in around countries like Japan and Korea..

        No there's a big difference. He didn't try to whoop his ass, he tried to box him. But it was funny how slow he was.

          Yeah, I know it's not MMA. If you read my post again, you'll see that I was referring to the popularity of MMA educating the general public in regards to fighting, which relates to boxing.

            That was entertaining. The Korean guy obviously has some kind of formal training or something though. The American was stiff, kept dropping his hands, wasn't extending his punches, horrible footwork, among other problems.

            This seems like something that would have happened at the turn of the century or something with East Asia opposing the Western imperialism or something.

              Pretty much all of this and then some, not to mention no angles and slow as ish. I'm not saying I'm superman but he was super slow even for an untrained guy. Open fist punching, it was just funny to me.

                He was smothering himself badly as well. The untrained man doesn't think of the simple physics. Doesn't matter how big you are if the other guy has his head in your chest and you are throwing wide looping punches.

                  That was unexpected...

                  Was thinking the Korean dude was going to move left straight into a right hand from the black dude...

                    It's not me in the video but I've boxed him before. The Korean runs this twice a week (sometimes more). In this particular match he could use both hands. It costs 10,000 won (about $10) to challenge him for two minutes. He offers headgear and a mouthpiece but it's up to the challenger to take it. You can choose three options: 1. He just dodges. 2. He uses only one hand. 3. Normal boxing.
