Journey to the 100man fight - The Judd Reid Story.
Judd's incredible story of life long dedication to martial arts and his attempt at the 100 man kumite. The toughest mental and physical challenge in the world.

Hey Kirai!...

what belt you going for?

I have been in many fights, I have won and lost. To be a good warrior you must feel the blows of somebody that doesn't want you to live afterward. You must suffer through being broken, then you will truly know what fighting is. You can memorize movement, but unless you can move aside the fear of loss, then all is for nothing.

I haven't studied any kind of martial arts, but experience has hardened my body and mind for action through pain.

I hear you and have been in some fights too for self defense. My training helped me become even better though. My goal is to avoid getting broken and when you get hit once you aim to be faster, better, stronger. A fight to the death will never be fair and its unpredictable. You just have to get good at reading people and responding accordingly. 

In our kung fu school we do iron body training and it has it's advantages. I think that everyone should train in a martial art. So I also disagree with you because while you may have some it may not be enough. Experience only gives you so much. The movement's and techniques we learn go into that fight to the death match. 

I'm not trying to ever be enough to change your mind....that'd be a waste of my time. You perceived my context about experience wrongly so let me be more clear. Non martial arts combat experience can only go so far. I have trained in military combat and still do. I get acess to a lot more techniques that helped me so every time something happens to me whether the enemy is non combat trained or combat trained I win. I get training on how to deal with more then three opponents at one time and I get trained how to handle intense amounts of pain yet still push through.

I learn how to dismantle someone in a few moves and kill someone in a few seconds. For me my older self who got beaten by a girl who fought back when I was younger...didn't know what they were doing and the learning process was slower. I also don't just get into fights to learn that way and hope I live. I think that is reckless. I don't  think my way is superior yet I know it has it's benefits. You should know by now that everything I say is from my own viewpoints however I guess you don't read my stuff which is fine. 

Sith are individuals. Each person says stuff through their own viewpoints. We can agree to disagree. I understand you perceive it as downplaying which is fine, that's not my responsibility for how you perceive things. Good luck. I would suggest muy thai, Krav Maga, and ju juitsu to anyone that wants to develop a rounded warrior foundation. When someone gets hit by me it hurts more due to my iron body toughing. When they kick my shins it hurts me more then them...that is a benefit. Anywho this is all I have to say regarding this convo with you and wish you the best in your life. Do what servers you. *shrugs and focuses elsehwere*

I don't disagree with you friend,
I like tkd due to the tricking, flexibility, and head kicks that can be powerful. Would I use it for actual combat stuffs, naw but it sure is fun for me. Plus in kung fu our school doesn't do competitions and as a sith I find being competitive can be fun. We aren't supposed to use o ur stuff in competitions due to Sifu and High Master says it takes away from de art. Plus idk it's just more brutal and to the point that even the karate person who was a black belt wasn't expecting it which was confusing to me. 

I was expecting him to try to kick my ass, counter, and realize what was going on but nope. nnnn I don't share this to brag btw, I share my victory to share the moment I realized while one should never under estimate an opponent each system has it's strengths that some just don't know. So it has it's benefits.

What else did you practice in your training besides forms? in other words what other methods did you undertake to achieve your strength and flexability?
