Again we see a common theme. Mr. Ma is no master, and this is yet another publicity stunt.
Also, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZT8CSh7SWMk -- which is quite honest on the whole Mr. Xu challenge thing. It was a giant publicity stunt.
Any time someone wants to step in the ring there are numerous existing and sanctioned events they could participate in. But these videos, which look more like TV commercials or shaolin temple documentary videos, have no credibility.Introduction to Master Ma Bao Guo--
In 1982, he became a student of Master Shangji (Who?) a well-known exponent of Xingyiquan (mind-body boxing). After three years, because of his rapid progress, Master Shangji recommended Ma Baoguo to Master Wang
Changhai (Who?)in order to learn Taijiquan. (Read that again...)
Master Ma also had the good fortunate to learn Gongfu from a rather enigmatic master, Guo Shenghai. (Who?)
After many years of practice and study, Master Ma absorbed three skilled Masters Gongfu and integrated this knowledge into his Taijiquan. As a consequence Master Ma's Taijiquan is very practical."

I think if he teaches them boxing first then adds wing Chun techniques
It is boxing with a few additives not wing chun

Only his students should care about that, since it is their goals which are important. They don't owe anything to wing chun or boxing. Anyway, if the question isn't labeling, all that matters is effectiveness. So what if they're just learning effective boxing?
I think that he's right in that the practice methods of (some/most) cmas do not have the same emphasis on competition that some other arts do. That doesn't mean they can't.
