A lot of them are there to increase the acceptability of the game to American culture. Plenty of guys fought Vale Tudo with only biting and eye gouging forbidden and seem to have survived. Hapkido masters seem to have been slightly thin on the ground under those rules as well, though I wonder which of them would have been up for a crack at this fellow?

Hapkido is entirely composed of biting, eye gouging, fish hooks, groin strikes, small joint manipulations, hair pulling, head butting, etc., etc. and defenses against such strikes. It is totally unprepared for a jab or cross.
Hi Cindy Can you please tell me what your MAP ID was? I don't see that anyone has been banned for multiple accounts recently. Mitch
Aegis banned deleted this idiots other account rather than ban them outright...he is more patient than I!
I am also fascinated as to who his left hand...err..."girlfriend" will report us "all" to as they were deletd by the actual site owner.
Who exactly were you going to try reporting us to? I'm curious as to who you think has authority over the owners of this website.
I don't know Aegis, be careful, she clearly believes in capital punishment. Capital? No? Oh suit yourselves.... Mitch
I will let you train in your sport and i will continue to train for self defense, after watching i was disappointed. basically what you have is strong men in great shape working basic skills. any one of our professional Boxers would of taken anyone of these guys out very quickly. I love the Brazilian jujitsu because it show,s an advanced fighting system and they use japanese jujitsu but have spent more time creating new methods. and Now we have EDDie Bravo rubber guard where he created more. when a person fights he fights like he train,s it becomes natural not something where i gotta worry about the rules and once again small circle jujitsu is banned and many other techniques. oh and by the way that is how we trained only with 10 oz gloves it is nothing new. i will say that the smaller guys are the best at Brazilian jujitsu they look like wrestler,s and go from one move to another. what is the sense of watching just another boxing match that they kick the guy in the knee?? its ok for the street but it lacks honor in a sport. too many great fighter have there career in UFC ruined from that alone. GSP is the man he has it all boxing jujitsu ect. and he only talks smack to those that show him no respect. thankyou George saint Pierre
see Hannibal you can be funny. I have Masters from all over the world and we just talk MA we don,t try to incite a riot. peace
So how much self defence work does your Hapkido cover? What do you do? Oh and why can't you use your Hapkido in MMA? Why is it we get loads of nutty TMAists spouting this nonsense?
Like James Toney did against randy Couture you mean? Oh, wait..... Now we have Eddie Bravo? He started that 10 years ago You do know I am friends with James Hundon don't you genius? Name one GSP is not impressed with your performance in this thread
