dedicated to the discussion of the chinese internal martial arts of xingyiquan, baguazhang, taijiquan, related arts, and anything else best discussed over a bottle of rum http://rumsoakedfist.org/
John Little joins me to discuss Bruce Lee's REAL fights. Was he just an actor, or could he fight for real? We discuss John's new book, Wrath of the Dragon: The real fights of Bruce Lee, available at all good booksellers now!
Why this revelation could destroy the very foundations of modern Sport Karate! Tread lightly.

it's going to be stand up comedy, maybe a rap battle (I'll lose for sure)/poetry slam IN THE OCTAGON for the first time ever. even the weigh-in and stare down will be ROFL funny.

100% you guys are better at the poetry slam. i concede already. idk who wins between you and Quigga. only seen your delivery (loved it btw) in that video you posted, but haven't seen Quigga. seems you both are gifted with the words.

Thank you. That was the original intent behind my screen name "oragami" like "oral" like words, like folding words, but everybody kept thinking it was a typo. I've put a lot of effort into learning how to communicate like a human
