Just interested in what the general thoughts are across the forum? www.wingchunfightclub.org/joomla/index.php
Is it looking to offer a platform for discussion about how Wing Chun can gain some respect as an effective style? |

Rep Power: 5 | | | I've heard about this and at first thought it was a crock. I know Alan Orr has been asking for this for a while. (Looking foward to seeing who comes out of the woodworks, if anyone, for this opportunity). The Iron Wolves from the NHB competitions are already on the list of course and I believe you can find clips of some of their (Alan Orr/Iron Wolves) past fights on the Youtube.

Congrats on the move CLF Devil. I'm sure you will be meeting with the likes of reps from the WC/WT/VT systems. Alan Orr carries respect on the international level (I'm willing to bet that this tourney is in some way his doing) so I'm sure the invite list will be extensive. Best of luck with your training. |

Thanks man, all I care about is furthering the system and getting more CLF fighters. Like Wing Chun, I've seen some horrible CLF to date . . . . some things I don't even want to talk about.
I wanna rekindle the old spirit of competition again, all in good health. If CLF and Chunners wanna go at it, hey, may the best man win.

Rep Power: 168 | | | Sounds like they are on the right track and focusing on the important stuff and not the fluff. At the same time I have to wonder if they aren't a tad overzealous in the application direction.... I have seen schools that get like minded and lose focus on technique and finesse and simnply become "fight schools" where people just spaz out and beat each other up all the time.
Peace-
Cam

Rep Power: 220 | | | Seems like they're 50/50, some people on their forum seem solid, down to earth and have good ideas and the rest are chunner nuthuggers that feel they're invincible and no other art is better than their's.
