    As a Wing Chun guy, I don't mind saying that we tend to have no ground game. If this MMA guy had any ground game, it would have been over on the first takedown. That said, MMA guy didn't have much boxing technique. Wing Chun guy has decently trained hands (despite being too low) and good ambidexterity, but like most of us, he's got no angles. Didn't matter this time, but it usually will.

    Yea, as a bjj guy it seems like the mma dude in the video learned all his „grappling“ from watching ufc highlights not actually learning them. It seems like he has ideas about what to do, like of an armbar or sidecontrol, but he dosen’t actually know how you do these moves or get into these positions. Btw how does your wing chun training look like? Just interested because I started out with wing chun, went to takewandoe, then to muay thai and now and probably staying for a long time at grappling/bjj. To be honost I had bad experiences at the wing chun place. Like the people were nice and all, but it felt like they were all kinda deluding themselves. We never really sparred at all, only did the same slow choreography’s and never anything more than minimal resistance. In spite of that, the coach and the people that have been there for a while, genuinely feel like they can fight or are in anyway competent, wich I just can’t see. Like how tf would anyone know how to drive if they only look at the theory of it, never actually putting themselves in a test drive or training to actually drive. Anyways I’m just interested in what other peoples experiences with it are like, because it seems like it can vary a lot. Sry for my big ass rant lol :)

    @@ethanmanjhi4007 I would bet there are "dirty" moves in just about any style. I agree that things like eye gouges (of which there are several kinds in Wing Chun) don't belong in sport, but there are several core principles of Wing Chun I'd like to see more of in the UFC. Ambidexterity is a great example. Most MMA fighters live in one stance. They're trained to switch primarily in the context of creating unpredictable attacks, but occasionally you see fighters who switch much more often. Those who can do it fluidly with high frequency tend to dominate center octagon position. If anyone would just treat UFC like Moneyball, they'd have clear stats proving a stark correlation between ambidexterous footwork and octagon control. I'd never claim Wing Chun is the only way to develop that ambidexterity, but I can confidently say that any MMA fighter who trains Wing Chun for a year will improve their ambidexterity.

    Yeah. But that only happebs because they do not spar! I have done an experiment before (3 times!) that kind of prove my point. First, You get any number (above 1) of guys that are crazy enough to go with the experiment, then you give them a ruleset from any combat sport (i have done it with Boxing, Kick Boxing and Muay Thai rules), have them do some light workouts and then give them the necessary equipment for them to spar (boxing or MMA gloves, mouth pieces, cups, etc) and make them spar under the ruleset that you gave them around 5 times a day, around 4 days a week, for at least 2 weeks; but keep in mind that sparring and streching are the only things that you are going to make them do. It is important that you do not allow any of them to inmediately spar again after they finish a sparring session, instead tell them to think about what they did and what they could have done, but *do not* tell them what they did wrong. Probably nobody on this commen section will do such a crazy thing so i'll give you the results that i got every time: People that knew how to fight even without any training, without teaching them what a Jab is, without teaching them a proper boxing guard, how to clinch properly. Even without teaching them any of that, they always got decent/good enough at it in only 2 weeks. Just by sparring a lot. So imagine having that plus any martial arts training. No wonder that the most succesful styles are the ones that spar and fight the most (Boxing, Muay Thai, Judo, BJJ, many forms of wrestling, Shuai Jiao, kickboxing, etc...)

    Well you've seen my fight and know I also incorporate a lot of CMA and Wing Chun into my MMA fighting style too. So my thoughts are pretty clear, there's plenty there that works so long as you actually pressure test it, spar with it and train it realistically. It can frustrate someone who isn't used to fighting that way. Though I think the biggest weakness of the MMA guy here was that he lost his composure very early and then started using desperation attacks which in turn depleted his stamina. At that point he was just putty. His heads probably spinning and he's just trying to hang on (He's also crossing his stance a lot, which is a beginners mistake, though with him being rocked he could have just regressed to that). Composure and patience are very key to fights man. Don't always try to go for the first round finish. Don't lose it at the first sign that it's not going your way. Just relax, breath and try to patiently find those openings. Also, when and where with the hooks guys. Hooks are short range weapons. If the other guy has decent straights and knows what he's doing (and the Wing Chun guy did) then he's going to beat you to the punch against that hook. Really impressed with that Wing Chun lad. He did everything right. He kept his patience, read his opponent, stayed composed and ultimately out striked the fellow. More of this people. An absolute pleasure to see people making those CMA's work and proving that with the right mind set you can be lethal with that stuff.

    For all those wing chunners looking for more power in their strikes, and stronger, more robust overall body structure, you need to look into effective martial 'zhan zhuang' - like that taught by Yao Zongxun lineage of Yiquan kungfu, for example. This is what your 'goat stance' is supposed to be providing you with. You find zhan zhuang 'standing post/pile' training in Gao baguazhang, and Chen taiji. It's an ancient Taoist yoga for martial arts, but can also be used for general health cultivation also. Perhaps you remember your teacher saying the goat stance alone should be trained for at least 18 months, or something like that? Well, in my experience, this is the reason why - because your punching will lack that powerful whole body connection that people like Tyson has with his hooks, and that someone like McGregor seems to have. In Western boxing, powerful punchers are often treated as mysterious gods - because some people are just born with good whole body connection to the ground that facilitates such striking from an early stage of their training (in Chinese Kungfu, this is called 'hunyuan skill'). But Zhan zhuang / goat stance training offers that power to everyone - it just takes at least 2 years practice for at least 1 hour daily. That's why you're likely hearing this for the first time! 😅 People just don't have the time, dedication, and suitable teacher to point out correct structure and its development. But good teachers are slowly making their way out of China to the west these days. If you meet one, you are a very lucky person! Also, take note of how the wing chun guy in the vid here generally applied constant pressure to his opponent - forcing him to try random attack strategies before he could test potentials. That is wing chun spirit - to constantly march in and 'suffocate' opponent as if in a phonebooth - with the intent of gaining a 'bind' situation (that's what it's called when swords lock on a battlefield), from which they can then work trapping and elbows, etc. Elbow is in fact wing chun's reliable core KO strike - and so that's the intended game-finisher. In the above vid, the MMA guy kept good enough distance under the pressure, so didn't get trapped much, and perhaps they agreed to not use elbows, anyway. But you can see how the wing chunner's pure intent to constantly march forward was apparently the ultimate winning factor. The MMA guy did seem generally less experienced, but he eventually appeared to feel suffocated and gave up.

    It's because we have professional settings like the UFC, One Championship, etc to show us what high level MMA skill looks like. You can compare low level fighters in unsanctioned sparring matches to the MMA athletes in high level events and see how their skills match up. Thats not the case with Wing Chun. What does a high level WC fighter actually look like? That's why people always blame WC as a style over the practitioner. I personally like WC and think it has some good concepts that actually work in a live environment. But WC on its own is limited and not a complete fighting system.

Super telegraphed punching, haymakers and bad grappling.

    This really is a low level statement. As if you just sparred for the first time, got hit and figured out to keep your hands up. The low elbow position and guard enhances your techniques due to the elbow/waist connection. The more you raise your hands the weaker your techniques become. Also people tend to punch straight whenever they raise their guard whilst they should maintain an upward angle so the force is redirected to the ground and doesnt get stuck in their shoulder. The Wing-Chun guard is more of a concept than a fixed position meant to block strikes. The guy in this video kept his training position instead of using it as an active guard. He only did single direct attacks. No effort to bait his opponent at all.

    The payoff in the wing chun guy's training seems to be in his base and structure. He's incredibly stable. Too much stalking though - a better counterpuncher would have capitalized on that. Also, Ving Tsun usually denotes the Ip family (Chun and Ching) or Wong Shun Leung. Maybe Korean though, idk.

    Agreed, but I read that stalking and not pressing the issue are staples of Wing Chun, break posture to chase your opponent and your triangular structural power envelope falls apart, it's better usually ((but not always)) to maintain it, especially if your opponent's super intent on striking you. I kinda think aside from the fact that this guy actually conditions and spars, that his ability to maintain his base structure under actual heavy fire that made him more able to preemptively sense and brush off those hooks.

    Its cool to see somebody work some wing chun, I love wing chun, but it doesn't look like he has evolved it. He adapted it into a fighting style, but still looks like he's still looks like he is very limited. When I used to do some sparing and mostly Wing Chun core, I kept my hands higher and set on my hips to build power in straight punches. Chain punches are only good for when you are trying to force a full cover up to take advantage, but they are very dangerous when using against a competent opponent as chain punches put you in a rhythm that can be exploited.

And if you didnt have a good answer he had you drill the exact sequence where you failed. The most common reason he yelled to beginners was that they left lots of air between themself and the opponent in the ground game. This MMA-guy llooked almost as if he intentionally tried to do side control etc with as much air as possible. My old coach would think it was a bad joke if anyone but a beginner did it like that.

If he keeps training and testing, he'll get far better. All so he used his wing chun in the clinch and on the ground even trapping and clearing from the bottom and side (ground). Wing Chun has much that can be fleshed out in this format , but it takes younger generations getting involved. He had some concept of underhooks and sprawling which helped hi a little, if he persists he'll get better.

Wong sheung leung always taught to create angles before doing entries so you don't risk running into "banana punches". In our school we also never do wing vs wing.

    I think this guy's wing chun is actually really well refined. Even when the mma guy got to be aggressive, most of the time the wing chun dude didn't lose form and was able to apply the ideal technique. Very impressive and looks pretty real to me. But I wanna point out something, I'm gonna say that this mma probably lacks some experience in general and wing chun kinda has some uninitiated bully stuff. In my experience, fighting against a wing chun/kung fu esque guard like that is awkward when you first do it. It has holes obviously but getting around it could be tricky when the dude actually spars and has a sense of distance, framing, fight iq, awaremess. It kinda sets up at times to actively punish you for your some more straight forward approaches and takes a little bit of a different strategy to shake their guard up so you can play your game. Definitely possible, but definitely weird if you haven't tried it before. Of course the more you're experienced and more flexible in your strategies you are you can get around this more, like I specifically have trouble cause as I was learning I would take what I could get persay in terms of technique and try to utilize that so I got trapped in the guard when those didn't work. That being said this guys wing chun still worked even when the dude did get around the guard, plenty of situations where his skill and confidence in his technique got to shine. A lot of itwas definitely legit I think.

    Well i did practice Wing Chun along with many other Kung Fu styles, so i'll try to say what i think about this practitioner. Wing Chun has many kicks, but this person (Just like most Wing Chun practitioners) seems to have only learned the front kick. He is also very passive, i'm going to say this so hear me out: Wing Chun is not a defensive martial art. Trapping, most of the time, is not supposed to be used defensively. If you look at the forms from other martial arts that showcase trapping, you'll see that it is used offensively. The practitioner still gets scared of big over hand strikes from unsafe distances. He can easily stop those by framing at his opponent's arm (which is a trapping move), but instead he gets scared and moves backwards which allows his opponent to get away with it because he does not punish him, not even with kicks or anything else, really. He probably just needs a better teacher and more sparring. Like, how come they never try other kicks and never get inside properly. Plus you aren't supposed to hold on to that Wing Chun stance (which is mainly for when you are wielding butterfly swords) *specially* when you are fighting defensively. Wing Chun literally has a stance that is based around counter attacking and fighting defensively...

Which is it, is wing chun supposed to look like wing chun in a fight, or is wing chun supposed to look like bad kickboxing in a fight? One of the big issues in wing chun and similar styles is that there simply is no consensus. As a group, no one seems to agree on anything and it makes it a total free for all in terms of opinions. All BJJ guys can look at this beginner's "armbar" and explain why it was terrible jiujitsu, and we'd all be saying more or less the same thing, which is because the technique is guided by function instead of by tradition, but this seems to be impossible in most CMA.

    i'm wingchun practitioner for more than 10 years now... first of all... pretty much as any other martial art in the world... modern WC has adapted to a world full of Mixed techniques. In my school as student we go to an entire anti-takedown program and then an entire ground program... pretty much like most BJJ has incorporated some punching defenses moving from traditional grappling-only. In WC we do not hope to be as good as a BJJ practitioner in the ground, just to have some game and be able to defend ourselfs and recover. As for this fight itself, the WC guy has a little bit too low of a traditional WC arms guard for my taste, nevertheless he has a pretty good defense with Bong-Sau against the hooks the MMA guy throws the entire fight. except for that, i think the WC guy attacks are too linear, he does not try any moves except chain punch and front kick (which is more than ok for self defense but a little bit too basic and telegraphed for a long sparring session against a guy with serious striking habilities) Also foot work is very very basic. As for MMA Guy... he is just bad. No kicks, no real ground game, strikes are very weak, thelegraphed and basic. I'd say that these guys have around one year learning their respective martial art, they still have a lot to learn but they are moving in the correct path that is to keep training and testing their own skills

    Most of these wing Chun guys you see getting beat in China are like 55 year olds who never sparred fighting 25 year old professional MMA fighters. Of course they get slaughtered. But there's several MMA fighters who've also incorporated wing Chun style into their fight styles and been successful

    Telegraphing + lack of straight striking + no feints = loss MMA is mixed martial arts, your opponent is strong here, you attack there.

    I think wing chun has a lot going for it. But from what I've seen, the problem is most people dont really spar or pressure test which results in a lack of good habits you should have in any fight (chin down, hands up, good positioning, etc.)

    The problem also depends on the lineage of the art, the teacher, and especially the practitioner. I'm a wing Chun practitioner since late 90s and also practiced other systems before coming to wing Chun, and I can tell you that it's the responsibility of the practitioner to make sure he trains and learns properly... I have never been to a dojo but at least I test tecnics and systems against sparring partners and explore all possibilities of a real fight. I can make most things work, be it kickboxing, taekwondo, wing Chun, jiu-jitsu, I learned a bit of everything. They all work well, people need to be intelligent at applying each art correctly. Another thing I can say is that I don't recommend wing Chun for beginners because it's a soft style and people need to master hard styles first and only then go practice the soft internal styles (like wing Chun, baguazhang, tang Lang, etc).

    That’s a tough one. I think if I had to play within the rules of the dichotomy you presented, I would choose really strong and know the basics. Once a few punches land, everyone is using their basics, so I’ll take the strength advantage. People like sakuraba who could take on bigger guys who have some skill and win are the exception, not the norm.

    Seems like the MMA guy was not a real pro, however, you could see that the Ving Tsun (VT) guy had sparred. This makes a crusial difference. PS: VT is the Romanization of the Wong Shun Leung branch (Hong Kong, not Vietnam).

    Actually all wing chun that punches outside the clinch is wrong, it's really a dirty/clinch boxing style that jams wrestling. That's what makes the centerline thing work, is that it's close up, handfighting, and turning the guy while it punches, elbows and sweeps. It's not supposed to be a form of kickboxing

    I suspect that the environment had a big effect, at least psychologically. This is taking place in a park, the kind of place that Traditional Chinese Martial Arts practitioners tend to train in, as opposed to the gym or cage environments which MMA fighters would be more familiar with.

    There's good wing chun and there's bad wing chun. The interpretation is free. Most of the matches where wc practicioner loses is because they don't use the concepts well. They don't usually spar. With my master, we always spar. There's something important also: wing chun can't be adapted very well to a sport because the main idea is to finish the fight very quickly.

    This was my whole philosophy right here. I started learning southern style Shaolin from my father and branched out to Wing Chun but learned that most of my sparring ended up too linear to defend and adapt. So I decided to try to learn as much as I could from as many styles as possible, starting with Baguazhang, Tai chi, and Aikido. I also went to a boxing gym to work out with western style defensive boxers. I feel that by not limiting your style to one form or another makes you more adaptable and far more defensive. (Also embarrassed a TKD teacher who clearly was not on my level)
