Meynard,
why couldn't you have just told us that earlier! ;-)
Ed
I didn't think I should have to explain myself.
Qui, obviously you have a problem with your own memory. I shall remedy this problem, I quote "Meynard must have been both confident of his own abilities and also sure of how little fighting knowlege the other guy had (a calculated risk)." These are your observations not Meynard's, which speaks volumes in your ability to assess an opponent whether its somebody else's on video or one in front of you. Your a layman, Qui, with little or no real knowledege about what your talking about.
Qui- I'm sending you a dream inside a dream tonight.
I hope your neighbors don't get freaked out by the screams.

Meynard,
The Sparring video shows the following.
With all the years of training you have you still do the worst technique ever invented next to the flying kick, the spinning back kick. I'm suprised Tim didn't jump in and kill you.
For a somebody that thinks he is a killer, you
pull off stupid moves.
I'm sure he will say that it's not his way of fighting. He was play fighting that others would pull off.
Blah blah blah. What's the spin going to be?? Make me dizzzzzzzy!
Can I get a what what!
I will second that!
You isnt the worst Meynard. But not as good as you thinks you iz.
Lonala has obviously read a lot of JKD books.
Okay, lanola and what up, thanks.
On other threads you like to expound on your intellect and that is the only answer/reason you can come up? You were the one that wanted to film your best techniques for the world to see. The real Meynard.
Have you rolled with Gazzy Parman yet? I notice you always duck the the thread that calls you out. I guess you belly up fast.
yep, I sure do. Thanks.
doesn't 'belly up' mean to take a drink at a bar?
Lonala,
A bit higher on this thread is a clip of Meynard "wrassling" with a guy 100 pounds of muscle heavier than him.
I didn't see your clip. Where is it posted?
Iron bastard - I am no longer posting on this thread, so kindly stop adressing me in your posts. I dont want to do the war of words thing. I am a fighter not a politician.
What up,lanola - any technique is legitimate and may catch opponents by surprise. Last year I saw a very expirienced fighter go down to a back fist. When I asked him afterwards Why he had not moved into finish the guy off while he had his back turned. He replied he was thinking about it but was amused that the guy turned his back the second it took him to think of that got him floored. Meynards restraint in posting as well as how he acquited himself during the vid clip speak volumes.
Awright, awright, let's break it up.
I'm no longer posting on this thread either!
There's a Zen buddhist parable about three novice monks who decided that they would meditate together in silence for 24 hours.
All went well until the middle of the night when a sudden gust of wind extinguished their only source of illumination -- a candle.
The youngest monk couldn't help muttering "Now we can't see.."
The second monk said angrily " You shouldn't have spoken!"
A few minutes later, the third monk whispered; " I am the only one who didn't speak when it happened."
was one monk named Moe?
(I knew you'd be back...)
If I had a dollar for every time I heard that...
Larry, Curly and Moe are three of the finest examples of American Zen Buddhism. I have lots of their wisdom on tape; my wife is very dull and thinks that they are just three homely idiots poking and slapping at each other.
Those of us in the know can see the secret fighting arts that they are secretly teaching to those of us wise enough to perceive how internal it is when Larry suddenly uses a knife-edge strike to block Moe's two finger snake-strike to the eyes.
And who could miss the fine example of going with an opponent's power when Larry slams Moe's fist downwards only to have it circle immediately back and hit him in the head.
