The following video conclusively ends the debate over who will win in an all out fight: As you can see. This video exposes a critical weakness in the MMA fighter; one that the shaolin monk does not even flinch at. I think that our opinions will agree thank you | ||

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... | ||

I'm just going to say it. Any gained benefits from this technique, not worth it. well thats provided they dont go splat before the thousandth try. | ||

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.

The throat is one such example: | ||

Omg, when I watched 'Shaolin Soccer' I thought it was made up! In the Sports science clip, notice how they just keep repeating the scream over and over "Waooh Waooh Waooh Waooh" so it etches extra deep into our memory :-) | ||

Do you think these guys are super fragile aside from their nuts or something? | ||

Do you think these guys are super fragile aside from their nuts or something? No, I think they need quite some time to prepare their body to receive those shots. As in if they start moving around, they will likely get dropped. I doubt also they can take consecutive shots well or to places they are not expecting (in all those types of demonstrations, they know in advance where they are being hit, and have time to prepare themselves for it), and some places you cant really 'tough it out' like the chin. Basically to me they are like human punching bags that can probably take 4-5 hits before getting ktfo. | ||

There are spots on the body that you just can't train to take a punch. In fact, it's starting to look more and more as though these spots not only can't be trained but actually cause more severe reactions over time due to excessive training and/or repeated impacts. Everyone can get KO'd. Some easier than others, but everyone goes down when you hit them in the right spot. There are times when your body just physically cannot continue due to physiological damage. It doesn't matter what degree of mental fortitude you have... anyone who has seriously hurt themselves knows exactly what I'm talking about. It sucks. That being said, the question then becomes... who is better at not getting hit? | ||
