My god ... That just goes to show how impressive their training is. MMA fighters can duke it out for a few minutes in a ring but this guy doesn't even feel pain. That was nauseating and he didnt even flinch.

Not just to not grab for them. But to stay right side up.

The following video conclusively ends the debate over who will win in an all out fight:
Haha, someone should pick up those skills and then take on the $500,000,000 challenge. (http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=61267 for those that don't remember)
Err i dunno how accurate the above video is. I think those that practice getting kicked in the balls actually develop muscles to ascend their balls into their body cavity out of harms way. I seriously doubt you can take serious force to them without getting injured. Its not so much that the pain isn't getting transmitted and more that actual balls arent being kicked.
That said I'd still take a MMA fighter lol. Those that practice this 'art' have to be singularly focused and prepare their bodies beforehand, but you cant really steel yourself against being knocked out/choked out.

Employ a tight high guard while thrusting your hips towards your opponent, legs way to the side, balls defenseless. Hope your opponent tires himself out from the bait or despairs at your iron balls and forfeits.

No, he didnt tap out to gsp's submissions because hes a crazy baddass, and because it wasnt the "proper"technique for the submissions...
Hardy spent a year with them... these guys train every day since the age of 5 for the whole day... hardy is 28 he spend 1 year training shaolin, while 28 year old shoalin's spent 23 years training...
