OTOH, I am a bit surprised that Ren did not move his feet more, which makes me wonder if he - like most of the older generation of masters - has only been playing PH and doing "applications" for 2+ decades, and so is unused to free fighting...?
Anyway, thanks for posting.

If there was another opponent, different size or speed, it would have looked different and he would have done other things. So, what's the probs?

Unfortunately he discovered that when fighting people bigger than him they could bust their way out of them, so he just stopped doing them and decided his time was better spent on mastering techniques that would work for him against all sizes of opponent.
