Walaupun sdh pernah mempelajari jurus ini beberapa bulan lalu, baru beberapa minggu ini saya terkena demam Chain Punch. Kecepatan, kesederhanaan, dan kedahsyatan dari Chain Punch adalah 3 faktor dasar yang membuat saya merekomendasikan bagi rekan-rekan sekalian untuk mempelajari salah satu jurus dasar dari Wing chun ini. Jika Muay thai dikenal dengan Roundhouse kicknya, tidak salah jika kita katakan Wing chun dikenal dengan Chain Punch.
Walaupun mungkin kekuatannya tidak sesangar roundhouse kick atau cross punch tapi kecepatan dan kuantitas dari Chain punch tentu tidak bisa membuat pukulan ini dipandang sebelah mata (tidak salah kalo ada yang mengatakan kalo chain punch itu seperti menembak dengan menggunakan senapan mesin).
Dari pengalaman pribadi dalam sesi latihan Multiple attack dengan beberapa murid saya malam tadi, orang yang menggunakan pukulan bertubi-tubi cenderung untuk lebih susah diantisipasi dibanding dengan mereka yang menggunakan pukulan tunggal.
Dan dalam situasi keroyokan kita bisa menggunakan jurus ini untuk meloloskan diri dari kepungan pengeroyok.
Jadi, tunggu apalagi.. Matikan komputer anda dan segera latih Jurus Bulan Ini.

Artikel Bulan ini : Reality Versus Ring
Sumber : Fight Authority
Remembering a time when Boxing was the most popular of combat sports. It seems that people could very easily came to the realization that the ring of Boxing or Kickboxing was very much different than the street. Moving forward to today; it seems that with the sudden popularity of the "UFC" and Mixed Martial Arts; even martial artists are having difficulties in seeing that the ring is a very much different world than the street or reality persay. I will address the difference between the ring and realiy as well as why most people are finding it difficult to separate the two.
November 12, 1993 is a day that changed the world of combat sports and martial arts forever; it is the day that the "UFC" or Ultimate Fighting Championshhip was born. The Ultimate Fighting Championship, is a Combat Sport promotion that claimed to be "No Hold Barred". It was a near everything goes fight set in a cage between competitors of all different styles of martial arts. This event eventually led to the "Hybridization" of most martial arts today; as well as the false sense of security given to those who practice mixed martial arts in street or combat scenarios. Before the "UFC" if someone ran into a boxer or kickboxer in a street confrontation; they respected them for their discipline, yet realized that if the boxer/ kickboxer fought like they do in a ring then they would be annhialated. the rules in the street are different youy see; there are none! The "UFC" ushered in a new breed of combat sport. The term "NHB" was coined; (No Holds Barred). This was due to the retoric that was being pushed in advertising; and boy did people buy it. "UFC" wasn't really; nor is it now "No Holds Barred". There are many rules in fact. There are so many rules that in 2000 the term Mixed Martial Arts gained popularity. The term "No Holds Barred" couldn't be used really; because there were many holds barred, such as biting, eye gouging,kicking downed opponents, downward elbows to the head, small joint manipulation and head butts to name a few. The sport is very similar to it's Ancient Grrek predacessor (Pankration) meaning,"All powers". I interpret this as working in all fascets of fighting or all of the zones; kicking, punching, trapping and grappling standing and on the ground. The average person who sees this thinks,"Ohh, it's a street fight." Wrong!! A street confrontation has no rules, weight classes and no time limits. The term "No Holds Barred", is still stuck in the heads of many; including the United States Military. The U.S. Army began to transition its hand to hand combat program back in 2000; as the "UFC" was gaining popularity, especially among soldiers. The Army began to incorporate "Gracie Jujitsu" into its program. Infact slowly but surely they began to completely adopt Mixed Martial Arts as their Combative regime. The U.S. Modern Army Combative program incorporates everything from double leg takedowns to fighting and submitting an opponent in the "guard". The guard is a position where you are on the ground on your back with your opponent between your legs. your legs are wraped around the body of your opponent. In a street fight as well as combat the last place you want to be is on the ground, and especially on your back! I know this first hand on many different levels. I am a former Green Beret and publisher of the combatives book "Combat Application Techniques: Principles Of Destruction". I am a professional Mixed Martial Arts Athlete. I am also a combat veteran. Unfortunately the retoric and the term "No Holds Barred" has sunk very deeply into the minds of the U.S. Army. What they don't realize is that besides going to the ground being potentially hazardous. The techniques of MMA or Mixed Martial Arts are hazardous in themselves. You can rip up your legs doing double leg takedowns, or knock your self out doing a freight train take down. In modern MMA gloves are worn to protect the hands. in the street and in combat there are no gloves. Hands get broken. There are time limits and rounds in MMA so fights can last from 5 - 25 minutes; depending on how many rounds. Street and Combat has no rounds. The quicker you finish the less likely you are to die or go to the hospital. You only fight 1 guy in MMA. In combat or the street; you never know how many you have to deal with. As a professional in the sport of Mixed Martial Arts; I can say that I love the sport; however as a martial arts instructor and soldier, I have to say wake up people. there is a difference between ring and reality. Mixed Martial Arts and the "Modern Army Combatives" are not combative systems. Fighting MMA in the street is just plain stupid! For those who train MMA for combat and for the street I am sure that it is going to take a near life threatening event to change your mind; but when that event happens don't say I didn't warn you.

Kakek usia 66 tahun kalahkan pemuda 21 tahun
Sumber : Tribun Timur
Makassar, Tribun - Tang Lee (66), seorang kakek berusia 66 tahun, berhasil menggagalkan aksi perampokan di dalam tokonya setelah terlibat bergumul saling pukul dan tendang dengan Safri (21), perampok berusia 21, Senin (13/4) siang. Kakek bercucu dua ini menang dan menguasi keadaan, seteleh pergumulan selama 10 menit.
Tang adalah warga Jl Cendrawasih, Makassar, dan pemilik Toko Sepatu Bata Ristrar, di jalan poros itu. Sedangkan Sapri, warga Jl Baji Pamai, Makassar yang berasal dari Limbung, Gowa.Saat menceritakan kronologi itu kepada Tribun, sekitar pukul 16.20 wita, atau 30 menit setelah diperiksa di Polsek Mariso, Tang tampak tenang. Padahal lima jam sebelumnya, membuat istri dan tetangganya tegang. Bahkan sesekali dia tersenyum. Tak ada tanda-tanda ketegangan seperti korban pencurian dengan kekerasan lainnya. Kakek bermata sipit dan mirip bintang laga asal Jepang era 1990-an, Ohara tersebut, menyebut peristiwa ini adalah pengalaman kekerasan pertama sejak dia berjualan sepatu sepuluh tahun lalu di Jl Cendrawasih Makassar.Bapak dua anak ini tidak pernah menyangka jika Safri adalah perampok. "Saat itu saya sedang memperbaiki motor di belakang, eh! tiba-tiba orang masuk dan langsung menuju ruang etalase," ujarnya. (lihat, Perampok Memukul, Kakek Tang Memiting -kronologis-)Di toko yang menjual produk sepatu dalam negeri, Bata itu, Tang tak memiliki pramuniaga atau penjaga. Dia hanya ditemani istrinya, atau sesekali anaknya mampir, membantu.Safri, si perampok yang coba mengambil uang di kas toko itu, di hadapan penyidik, memang sepertinya sudah memantau sang kakek dengan lima cucu itu. Setelah melihat sang Tang lengah, tiba-tiba dia merangkul tangan kirinya.Sapri sediri adalah pengangguran yang mecicil motor Yamaha bebek. Sejak kecil di sudah berpisah dengan kedua orangtuanya di Limbung, Gowa, Saat melakukan aksinya, Sapri membawa badik yang panjangnya satu jengkal setengah. Badik itulah yang dia pakai mengancam. "Dia langsung mengarahkannnya ke leher. Saya sangat kaget tapi tetap cobe tenang," katanya.Dia diminta ke meja kas. Dengan tenang, Tang mengikuti apa perintah pemuda itu, sambil menunggu kesempatan untuk memberikan perlawanan yang berarti. "Kira-kira ada 10 menit baku ambak. Intinya, saya berusaha menghindar dan menjauh dari badik " kata Tang yang dibenarkan Sapri.
Pengakuan Tang Lee Hanya Praktekkan Jurus Kungfu
Namanya Tang Lee. Nama belakangnya mengingatkan pada dua bintang silat ternama asal Negeri Tiongkok, Bruce Lee dan Jet Lee. Namun dari ketenangan dan raut muka, Tang Lee, mirip Ohara, bintang karate asal Jepang. Meski memiliki nama belakang Lee, tapi Tang selalu merendah. "Terus terang saya hanya mengandalkan kekuatan kakek-kakek dan ketenangan saja. Kalau bodi daya sudah tentu saya bukan apa-apa baginya. Namun dengan sedikit gerakan reflek, sambil memanfaatkan ruangan yang sempit saya pun berhasil menghidar dari tikaman itu. Badik jatuhnya." Dikatakan, apa yang memicu keberaniannya melawan pemuda bersenjata tajam tersebut, dengan enteng ia menjawab jika selama ini ia sering melihat dan memperaktekkan beberapa jurus silat, khas negeri Tiongkok, Kung Fu. "Saya sering melihat orang latihan bela diri, kemudian mengulanginya di rumah," katanya sambil senyum-senyum. Hanya saja saat ditanya jenis bela diri apa yang ia pelajari, kakek di usia uzur tersebut hanya menjawabnya dengan gelengan sambari tersenyum.(cr3)
Pembelaan Perampok : Untuk Cicilan Motor Ji Kodong
SAFRI yang tinggal di Jl Baji Pamai III, dibalik jeruji mengaku melakukan hal tersebut untuk melunasi motor bekas yang beli dari rekannya yang tinggal di Jl Rajawali Makassar."Saya butuh uang pak untuk bayar cicilan motor ji kodong,"ujarnya singkat kepada Tribun. Selain itu, ia juga mengaku jika selama ini ia menumpang di salah satu rumah keluarganya. "Untuk menutupi kebutuhan saya pak, terkadang saya menjadi pelayan di salah satu kafe di kawasan pantai Laguna,"ujarnya dengan meringis karena matanya mengeluarkan darah setelah diamuk massa pascakejadian sekitar pukul 10.30 Wita.Dia juga tak menyangka, kakek itu bisa memberikan perlawanan. "Kukira tuami, Pak. Deh, tapi masih melawan," katanya. (cr3)
