I mean let's be honest, this is how most fights that don't involve professional fighters look like! Even when it involves martial artists. I think Bruce Lee and other martial arts stars created this romanticized view of what people think every martial artist should look like when in reality fights are a lot more disorganized and involve more gross motor skills than people think.

​@afranks8566 It's no secret that it changed rapidly when it was exposed to Western boxing. Muy Thai is great because they use they test and examine the evidence of what works. If schools kept practicing Muy Boran without actually fighting, I don't believe that they'd be effective either. It's not East vs West, it's training fighting vs dancing. Folks who focus on forms can do beautiful forms well, folks who fight can fight. There's some overlap. Both build stronger bodies and can lead to injury.

Your comment is very interesting but also very wrong. For most people and all historians, Macau 1954 isn't "Communist China" but fascist (and very anticommunist) Portugal... It has something to do with, you know (I hope), colonialism. It makes your other comment "They're probably relatives of the local Communist Party Chairman" very funny too, because a Communist wouldn't be invited in a territory ruled by Portugal, a fascist country at this time. And when you look about the biography of one of the fighters (Wu Kung-i), you even see he fled Communist China to live in Hong Kong (an English territory at this time, as you may know)...

When I watched this fight the first time, my reaction was "What happened to the beautiful Kung Fu?" I think that we get trained to expect beautifully choreographed fights from all the Action Films that Jackie Chan made. This is important footage as a testament to how real martial arts fights never look good or clean. As far as I can tell, neither master was trying to showcase the beautifully-looking "styles" that we normally see in training videos; they were demonstrating that after training in one style or another, they had the means to defend themselves against punches and kicks. What I got out of this is that with the Chinese martial arts, the form is there for strength and sensitivity training, but a fighter doesn't restrict himself to the beautiful-looking movements of the form. He uses the muscle memory and strength built up from training to defend himself during combat. Also, did anyone pick up on the subtitles? This was a charity event, not an animosity-filled challenge fight. I think we KZreadrs who enjoy watching martial arts can learn some humility from these masters. The fight was stopped because both masters had demonstrated their point; Pak Hok Pai showed the ferocity of White Crane, and Wu Gongyi defended himself pretty well (considering that he's a much much older man!). They were NOT out for blood.

When you train in wrestling or boxing your fighting looks like your training, bjj tai boxing or any effective martial style you train the way you fight. To practice movements you don't intend to use or can't use in a real fight is silly and less than pointless it's counterproductive.

The more tense you are, the less you can feel and change, and you will look foolish in combat.

this explains why Bruce Lee is trying to make a change in chinese martial arts to save the dying martial arts of chinese culture, by giving life back to the art to be dynamic and flowing, you can clearly see masters performing poorly in a simple match.

Lol this great art of fighting goes up in smoke when shit gets real . all fighting style ends up looking like two girls fighting

Interesting clip made 60 years ago. Naturally that's how people fights in a ring. Need great discipline and mental control to use their "Kung Fu" defending themselves which was lacking with these 2 fighters. Calm mind is the way to improve fighting skills. Be like water, my friends.

The boxing techniques (eg swing punch) of Wu Gung-yi are still praised and promoted by some of his present-day followers. They claim that Wu's techniques in this fight embodied a new method of Fa-Jin (發勁) to discharge power in the attack rather than defense mode. Wow wow!

These guys look like two uncoordinated kids fighting in a elementary school in their first ever fight where neither one knew how to throw a punch or kick. I know White Crane and Tai Chi. Trained in both when I was young and realized very early on how useless they were for real self defense. And this video just confirmed my suspicion.

If they are masters fighting like that... I wonder how did the founders masters of many kungfu styles fought ...

Before fighting with Yi Long, the so called world TKD muti-champion said that Chinese kung fu is exercise for elderlies and is as lousy as the Chinese national football team ! He boasted that the TKD kicking is the best kicking in the world. But in the fighting. He behaved like a small boy. When he missed his own kicks , he self-toppled more than 10 times.Those korean girls sitting below the platform even covered their eyes. They felt ashame to see such a korean plus world champion laying on the floor like a crying baby. Dear friend, do you think this world champion is better than the above tai chi masters ? How come no comment saying that : TKD is useless in real fight ?

The one thing I don't like about this fight was how the rules were set up. Judges made it so that kicks, throws, and joint locks weren't allowed, so that really limited the available techniques. For anybody familiar with Taijiquan, you'd realize that it's primarily a grappling art. As for Tibetan White Cran, I'm not that familiar....

I heard the tai chi fighter had badly damaged arms after the clash. You can see the white crane fighter hitting his arms, a lot.

I'm a wc instructor, i can say these aren't even close to masters, closer to an inebrieated brawl

hahahahaha i like the sound effects.

If I, a Chinese guy, had seen this in my teens, I should have awakened much earlier and need not wait to get disillusioned until 23 when I first went to a beginner Muay Thai class. But all those myths, legends, excuses, etc.(e.g. recent exaggerations about Yip Man and Wing Chun) still exist and hype people up (even some foreigners). Few Chinese dare to answer this question: Why did Bruce Lee have to originate Jeet Kune Do?

Back to 2014? Why not Francis... People these days have worked out (through trial and error) that you have to train in a Muay Thai/Full Contact style for standing and an MMA/Wrestling/BJJ style if you want to be able to fight for real, either standing or on the ground. Muay Thai and the "mixed matches" in Holland in the 1970's were way ahead of the curve. The grappler would win 8 out of 10 of those fights with a simple takedown of the striker, ending quickly with a choke or joint lock - all well before BJJ made it's debut onto the World stage. Now MMA is a constantly evolving, hybrid performance art that's enjoyed by millions worldwide, with a well established set of rules in place to make it as safe as possible for the participants. Also it's still news when a half decent Muay Thai fighter gets beaten and it's likely as not, by a style that's delivery system is virtually a carbon copy of Muay Thai. Nowadays lots of people see MMA working well and have forgotten all that went before. Imaginary situations dealt with with one or two strikes etc. Joe Rogan has said all this way better than I can. I'm lucky that I started (by chance) Muay Thai training back in the 1980's. It's been a reliable reference point for me as to what works in a fight and what doesn't. The training the guys in this video did for all those years reaped little reward when it came to the crunch - from what I can see. I'm not poking anyone in the eye with my comments btw - it's just the way it is.

Another example : in 1930 America was the richest nation in the world, but around 2000, it bears a heavy debt almost a few hundred billion dollars, in average every American has to share a loan about 30 thousand dollars . It seems it needs to clear this heavy debt by 2 generations at least. If your time-machine could go back to Tang dynasty of China (1500 years ago).

"I know guys from various branches of Kung Fu who can scrap and they must be devastated at this footage!" A quote from my original post on this clown show... Please guys ease up on the hate. It's not my fault that this footage is so embarrassing. I was not born when this went down and I didn't miss much. My quote above should show that it is a mixture of the man and the method. I know guys who don't train at all but are just born hard as nails - they'd go through these chaps like shit through a goose! I have not ( nor ever would say) that nobody from Kung Fu or China can scrap. I do still maintain that Muay Thai or similar performance based martial arts are way more effective than these two clowns going at it. Yi Long and all the other (non Thai) fighters are great but it's still big news when he beats any Muay Thai fighters and it's with similar training methods and a similar delivery system. The shit these guys are trying does not work. Open your eyes! I don't need a time machine gentleman, I have this video - this is old footage hence my 1930's quote about the Kung Fu vs Muay Thai meeting. I thought it would serve to illustrate how badly the "internal arts" performed against a superior system of fighting that served them so royally. Things have changed for the better in this day and age and I applaud that progress. Toshio Fujiwara is one of my favorite fighters ever. Do I dislike him because he's not Thai? No, because I'm not that childish. I guarantee that Fujiwara and all the guys who went/go against Muay thai and win, train in a style similar to them. I also guarantee that (apart from a freak accident) any of the training the guys in this footage did would not be effective in a real situation or ring fight. Hohn Khew Wong "Those kung-fu fighters were amateur kung-fu practisoners with part-time practice at night after work (mostly in Thai-land). But their opponents were professional ring-fighters( Is it fair competition ?) Some of the kung-fu fighters even first time fought with gloves in their lives" Boo Hoo! I feel so sorry for them. If you step into the square jungle you know it's about to go down. If you live in Thailand you may have an inkling of what you're up against don't you think? The two guys here had no gloves and look how lethal they were! Simply chilling technique... I'm not going to argue about where all the real fighters in China, Russia, England or anywhere else were back in the day (which is when this footage is from). I'm just going to let this footage speak for itself. It's far more powerful than any sniggering or comments I am capable of posting. What's next? A public challenge and more (hopefully not so appalling) footage for this website?

I have no horse in this race, but it seems to me that even with these two contestants, we would all be singing different tunes about the video if and only if both contestants fought with razor sharp katars (keep the fighting style, just add the weapon). Having a katar shoved repeatedly into your head brings a whole new meaning to "martial arts."

It looked really funny because it the past there was no real sparring training, each school just practiced closed doors, and restricted their trainings to the solo & fixed punching sequence... This is why when it cane to full contact fights, neither fighter looked well trained, and it appeared like a street fight between amateurs!!

What I expected is crazy Kung Fu skills like flying kicks in the air, Taichi bullshit reflection and no touch move.

Hammerfists a plenty! Even a wing chun fighter might have done alright here. It is painfully clear just how much more advanced western boxing is with hand techniques, although kung-fu/taiji is amazing for a whole load of other reasons.

I too trained in Slap Fu Pai as a kid. I sent a lot of school kids home with black eyes.

Till maybe 30-40 years ago, martial arts were something conceptually different... One was what they tought in clubs, one was the fight. One thing did not even meet the other. At that time, in western world, just boxe, savate and little other were "real" figthing methods, other like all Kung Fu stiles were just...choreography, healty art, tradition. So, even masters like those in the video, were useless in real fighting... Just some styles promoted barehands real fight, like taekwondo, kyokushin karate and other... Take a look to some picture or videos of Grand Master Hee Hil Choo (taekwondo) he was used to win barehands fights by KO, 30-40 years ago!

Imagine that this was the norm from which Bruce Lee emerged.

They should not have agreed to a boxing match. Tai chi chuan emphasizes wrestling and thats what they should have agreed to. Push-hands competition would have been a much better option as well. I say this knowing full well that one of the practitioner's here is a white crane stylist, not a practitioner of tai chi chuan. White crane is better suited for boxing but there isnt much "boxing" here. More of a sloppy slapfest. Anyone know why they agreed to this at all?

This video does no justice to Taijiquan. These men were not even using it. And I know, because I have used it in fights and it looked nothing like this. For example, someone in a bar once came at me with an over-head hammer fist. I stepped back one step, caught their wrist with my outer wrist, used a rollback-press, and put them on their ass with one spiraled movement. They hit the ground so hard on their ass that they actually thought I had thrown them and told everyone that's what I had done. Taiji is like magic once you're using it correctly. This? I don't know what this is.

The Muay Thai fighters in 1954 did it much more better or english boxers of this period. You train 10-20 years Kung Fu and at the end this is the result in the ring??? I think that this guys are the better ones in there Kung Fu schools and represant their masters and lineages. I'm really shocked.

Don't underestimate any form of fighting from any country. If a boxer catches you with an uppercut it will hurt, same if a taekwondo practitioner catches you with a round house. "Ignorance is bliss, knowledge is power" What made Bruce Lee so great...? Don't think... feeeeeel!

The problem was the rules, Taijiquan relies on close quarters work and sticking using sweeps locks, throws , punches and low kicks. Nice to see this historic fight though, thanks for uploading

the actual problem is the lack of fighting skills.

How is this not White Crane and Tai Chi? How are these 2 suppose to fight ? A fight is a fight. You can fight any way you like. Only difference is you get your training in different styles.

Negrodamus This is no joke. If you expect a kungfu fighter to fight like what you see Jackie Chan does in the movies or Jet Li, you are too naive or you simply have been watching too much kungfu movies. Be real.you can train in any martial art but when you fight you fight any way you can that gives you the best results in any given situation. --The style is internal and in their training, not necessary explicit or demonstrated explicitly in actual fight.

looks like kids fighting

the first fight between the guy with the robe and the guy with the tie involved two of the most revered grand masters. The person with the shirt and tie is Lau Fat man, grand master of eagle claw father of Lily lau currently one of the grand master of Ying jaw pai. I will let the viewers judge themselves

the fact is,.. there is no tai chi fight in real life

Nunca vi Kung fu,vi a dos pesimos boxeadores que no emplearon sus estilos.Parecería que no saben y si tomamos las formas occidentales del box;cualquier boxeador los noquea.

Their congratutulations themselves at the end are the best of the competition. #FairPlay

how could this be a major event in the Kung Fu world?

This was a minor event in a charity show in a small place : Hong Kong (1954) not as you said kung-fu " world " . If you want to watch the latest kung-fu fight on the international platform, please go to : " Fang Bian vs Simon Marcus, 2015 "

funkyboodah lol... who told you that is "Major event" the vid description ? dude if your mission is to go around and check all of the youtubers which did not understand the content of the vid which they are uploading, or if you are on some mission to correct everybody who wrote wrong explanations, provided with wrong information's (consciously or not) or to tell everybody who accidentally made wrong assumptions about their uploaded content it would be like 85% of all youtube clips up there about ANY subject... good luck withthat... this was kind of important because of certain political reasons (and rather long story why) but has nothing to do with being "major event" in eyes of any fighting arts in 20ct China or Japan by that matter ..

Leonard Orr it could cal it a "major event" because it was public: there was clearly a large crowd who dressed up to see it, tickets were sold, and it was televised - this suggests there was some story leading to the event and there was great anticipation about the fight itself. I wonder if people were dissapointed that these guys looked more like bums fighting...

funkyboodah man this is just a fight between two guys that dont even know box

Those two old guys were just having a ball with each other.

These two "masters" would have been beaten at the first pub. Cinematography works wonders!

If that's kung funny or tai chi , I'm a freaking astronaut !!!

This is what every traditional martial artist who doesn't spar looks like when fighting in reality. For what else do you think professional fighters spar too much?

It is what you do not expect and what you do not see. But believe me, Tai Chi hurts in a different way.

When you expect to see a onepunch-man or dbz fight and when you just see a sponge bob fight ... xD

Most of what Chan hak fu seemed to be doing looks like choy lee fut, which makes sense because Pak Hok Pai shares a southern root. It is clear that neither intended to enter a grappling game or even lock submission. You could view this as stand up strike sparring which is inline with boxing/kick boxing. Fighting is messy, the aim of good martial arts should be to end a fight as quickly as possible. This clearly doesn't do that. In my opinion Chan hak fu does deserve respect he fought using his style's hand techniques, landing some good 'hooks' and seemed to be a bit more stable. While not the greatest 'fight' these men were prepared to show their dedication and risk their reputations. Most of the people commenting here (including me) wouldn't do this type of event because it's so risky. I guess you could call them honourable fools but to disrespect their teaching and skill because yes those haymakers are in kung fu, just not the pretty kung fu you are used to seeing. I agree that they were probably not sufficiently trained for a fight.

I felt lonely to make comments (technical analysis) in detail to rectify the mistakes which master Wu had made in his Tai-chi movements so as to enlighten the Tai-chi followers. Hopefully, the Tai-chi practitioners could realize the applications of the inward and outward coilings (内，外缠丝手）. The most important thing is not losing your confidence in Tai-chi. Recently I watched a video that a wing-choon master in 北京(supposed with high reputation) saying that Tai-chi skills could not execute in real fight ! His posted a question : " how does a tai-chi practitioner grab his opponent`s fast punch in action ? He also posted his silly demonstration on tai-chi pushing-hand. Let us revise the history that 杨露禅 with his 2 sons were so famous in 北京, by the time Wing-choon was no-where ! Wing-choon was well known only because of Bruce Lee. Lets come back to the technical point : how does a tai-chi practitioner grab the opponent`s hand ? When you are punched (say straight punch) by your opponent, of cause you could not grab his hand immediately, lets use slow shoots（慢镜头） : firstly, use outward coiling to deflect his punch just few inches away from his target (your body). Secondly, as his punch goes to the end (即：强弩之末） then there would be a pause(might be half a sec) at this moment you could grab his hand ! (not only his hand, sometimes even his whole body as he is out of balance then you may take advantage of his own falling momentum to sweep him with another hand side-way by movement of 带马归槽 ，Of cause, make sure the timing is correct !!!

5:15, "Hey, Bro, this is BS, you tried to punch me in the nose for real! WTF! Dim Mak only."

Donde estan las tecnicas

2 rounds of fisticuffs! It shows how their years of practice of Taiji and white crane turned into shit after the bell sounded!and these are the masters of their respective martial arts.

On voit bien que c'est de la boxe chinoise, du kung-fu, l'un utilise les coups en marteau dans 8 directions, c'est un vieux style de kung-fu. Les frappes sont souvent circulaires et fouéttées. Mais on dirait 2 débutants, après quelques cours... les frappes sont mal exécutées, il n'y a pas de blocages, les déplacements sont bordéliques...

people dislike this video and say: 'well my wing chun/wushu/kung fu is not like that'... actually it is... get over it and join jj/kick boxing

Don`t say this or that, go and watch : " Fang Bang vs Simon Marcus, 2015 " !!!

I mean, they are tuff, they are throwing down 😂🎉

Everybody got a plan, until they got punched in the face. This is the universal truth

What a sad looking "fight". It looks like all their martial arts training went out the window. No blocking or yielding. But even their punching looks weird for both of them.

we don't need to learn kungfu to do this fight....all we have to do is just punch....oh boyyy!!!

I think you would probably see better technique outside a Swindon nightclub at 2am.

It's amazing that the crowed didn't riot after spending money to see this.
