If you can call Wrestling a Martial Art then I am Martial Artist. I've been wrestling since High School. I'm talking about real wrestling not WWF.

Now don't get me wrong, I appreciate your attempt to clarify this for us...but what do you take the rest of us for? A bunch of complete freaking idiots? I mean...you could have just said that you have been involved in wrestling since high school and I do believe that if 20,000 people had read your comment nary a one of them would have thought that you meant that you were getting it on with Stone Cold Steve Austin twice a week.

I realize that we have some real simpletons that post here, but in the future please give the majority of us a little bit of credit.

There are wrestling schools for exhibition wrestling though, so I think the clarification was warranted. Don't get yer panties in a bunch Smiley: lol

Ah good ol' dependable Taco.

Drug threads are to Angry Hippo as Martial Arts (or Kara-tay as Taco would call it) threads are to Tacosid.

Quick Taco, who would win in a fight? Bruce Lee or Jet Li?

I apologize to Sanni as my generalization was apparently erroneous. If 20,000 people read your statement there is apparently at least one imbecile who would have needed clarification.

I would rather see them in a Professional Wresting tag team match against Tommy Lee and Christopher Lee. In this note that I said Professional wrestling...not that stupid stuff you see at High School Gymnasiums.

Yes the wrestling you see on TV is fake they are all actors and there are basically no rules.

You can not be serious! They don't really hit each other with chairs and slam each other full power onto their necks? Why has no one ever told me this before!

Glad to see that your intelligence is at least on par with what I would expect to find in a combination 2nd and 3rd grade classroom. Of course most kids that age take for granted that wrestling is fake...but hey! You're getting there!

Owwwww. I'm so sore. Just started gracie jiu-jitsu last night. The school is a lot more free form, and a lot less disciplined than I'm used to - but I like it.

We learned some arm bars, and then finished off the night with light sparring. As a novice, it was more along the lines of me just trying to keep from getting in a hold where I would have to submit, which I did surprisingly well at. I actually managed to get the teacher in a leg bar, but I didn't have it set correctly.

Overall it seems neat.. now I'm just waiting for my joints to not hurt when moved. Arm bars really mess your arms up.. ugh.

I have studied Kyokushin Karate at the Endicott NY Kyokushin dojo for about 4 years now.

It was originated in Okanawa by Masutatsu Oyamma.

Mass had trained with Gitchen Funakoshi who created Shotokan Karate, one of the most wide spread styles of Karate to come out of Okanawa.

The main Kyokushin web page in NY is here www.uskyokushin.com

If you scower the pictures, you will eventualy see me, I've fought in several full contact tournaments, this I find, is about as close as true adventure as I can find.

I also studied a year of Shotokan
A year of Kung-Fu
and a year of Tae Kwon Do

In my opinion, and from experience, only good schools I've been to were those that remained traditional with distant links to the great Okanawan instructors.

Most styles now adays are soft americanized crap.

Wait a minute, i'm sure no-one gives two shiny f[b][/b]ucks so i'll cut to the chase.

Most effective stand-up martial art. Ever. Period.

Actualy, Kyokushin is Muay Thai except we don't strike to the face.

Kyokusin is intense, people get hurt, often, and not many make it to black belt.

Now you Muai Thai bastards are fing insane!
