EuropeanCrusader ::: Favorites No dumbass. The English Rebels brought boxing and their form of wrestling to america dumbshit. The greeks beat you in 2 battles, the portuguese conquered you, and Britain raped you and yes dumbshit you do have to go somewhere to teach how do you think that asian martial arts were learned in america asian immigrants and for the last time every culture has their own martial arts get a brain and grow some balls 07-08-23 20:32:57 _____________________________________________________
realguitarshredder ::: Favorites education??hah. Britain martial arts? what, guns? to be honest britain never invaded india in war. They came here to do business and got the east india company. U get some brains. I did not say India was the savior I was just saying how the fighting style can be spread over the world and people dont really have to go somewhere to spread it. oh my my.. 07-08-23 17:10:17 _____________________________________________________
EuropeanCrusader ::: Favorites Not everybody wants to know Chinese fighting. I've trained in Iberian and Andean fighting. I've study ancient fighting styles from around the world including india and theyre all different from eachother. All countries had to develop their own weapons and develop armed and unarmed combat. Get an education and realize that EVERY CULTURE HAS THEIR OWN MARTIAL ART. INDIA IS NOT THE SAVIOR TO THE WORLD AND IS NOT THE MOTHER TO ALL MARTIAL ARTS. Britain beat you with their own style of fighting 07-08-23 10:08:19 _____________________________________________________
EuropeanCrusader ::: Favorites That's not true the british martial art used punching, eyegouging, low line kicking, grappling, etc. It's not based on the art it's based on the person's experience and skill on the art. Every culture's fighting style is unique. that's a myth saying that one country's fighting style is the mother of all other country's fighting styles please the greeks, portuguese, and british had their own self defense before they invaded india nobody went to other countries to learn how to fight not like today 07-08-23 10:01:08 _____________________________________________________
EuropeanCrusader ::: Favorites Wrong. Iberia (spain/portugal) has been at warfare since the beginning of time, they didnt have time to go to another country to take fighting lessons that's not what was done in ancient times. Modern times yes like the U.S. military martial art is a mix of british, greek, japanese, chinese, and thai fighting. \ 07-08-23 09:55:30 _____________________________________________________
realguitarshredder ::: Favorites hmm.. every country needed to have a martial arts. yes but what if u got to know an efficient one and then u adapt it. thats how it spreads. people want to know knugfu cause they see all that fancy stuff and knows its better than the british or american martial arts (so called). And that is how it can be adapted. people did travel to other countries to share. Should know science and a lot of history to realise all this. Hint: environment in India many years ago when most places were cold. 07-08-22 22:08:10 _____________________________________________________
EuropeanCrusader ::: Favorites Wrong, every culture around the world has had to develop a way of self defense not go to Egypt to take fighting lessons. When all the continents were connected, America land of the red people was connected to the orient that's why they have a close resemblance, America was on the otherside of the world far from egypt, you should study their fighting arts such as isuna nika dot com the art of the plains warrior or Lua the art of the Hawaiian warrior not even european martial arts compare 07-08-22 13:37:18 _____________________________________________________
EuropeanCrusader ::: Favorites How did they spread combat to the world? they never reached the orient or america which only the orient knew existed but was unknown to the rest of the world at the time. As you can see middle eastern martials and asian martial arts have a close resemblance but the asians had to develop it on their own not take fighting lessons from India maybe just the religion Buddhism 07-08-22 13:29:42 _____________________________________________________
EuropeanCrusader ::: Favorites Native american martial arts are completely different they use only the straight punch(which is common in every culture except for how you throw it) hammerfist, eye gouging, biting, when they would grapple they wouldnt use submissions their goal was to instantly kill their opponent. By the way MMA is a mix of British, Greek, Japanese, and Thai combat, that's why it's known as MMA 07-08-22 13:24:37 _____________________________________________________
EuropeanCrusader ::: Favorites how stupid can you be? Every culture around the globe has had to develop a way of self defense both armed and unarmed in violent times not go to greece, india, or egypt to take fighting lessons. European martial arts have a resemblence to greek combat. 07-08-22 13:22:01 _____________________________________________________
