What's the deal with Steven Seagal?

Aikido is a cool thing and it can work - if you do it right and do train for a long time, longer than in other MA.

Aikido us garbage and this is the wrong board

no it is bullshit. aikido is shit, no one really goes dojo in aikido, there is a video where a black belt in aikido fights an mma practitioner and gets his ass whalloped. mma is greatest

All the aikido "masters" gets their ass whoped by any experienced mma fighter.

But MMA is really just a bunch of working tricks from different MM sports slapped together.

Akido seems like the Tai Chi you see people doing in the park. It is just not a combat exercise.

i believe a good fighter is great all around' not talk8ng about competitive either, in street fight too because you dont go to the ground in a street fight. but it is good to know ground game

The MMA community isn't divided at all. He's a punchline. "Shart his pants like Seagal".
Like saying the MMA community is divided about Wing Chun or Krav Maga - it's not. No one trains these (or Aikido). They're a joke. You get laughed off the mats if you even go there.

What you mean is "/fit/ is divided" or "armchair martial arts fans are divided". No one who knows anything about fighting is feeling conflicted over this...

>but Anderson Silva invited him to his camp
Yeah, he "invited" him. He didn't pay him as a coach. Seagal showed up.
>Why?
Anderson was looking for a part in Seagal's next straight-to-video masterpiece. Fuck, even GSP got movie roles and that dude sounds wooden when he's being himself. The 'GOAT' wanted some of those $.
Seagal just wants gullible armchair fans to take him seriously.

Are you saying Aikido, Wing Chun and Krav Maga are bullshido?

Granted, they're not, as far as I know, competitive sports, but don't they still have legit self-defence techniques that are applicable in the real world?

>>42116400
Akikdo is bullshit on its own and if fought in a real only one spec on spec fight akikdo wil always lose/

>in street fight too because you dont go to the ground in a street fight.
if you don't go to the ground in a fight you're retarded m8y. at least that's whay my mma instructor tells me. ground game will win fights every time against untrained/less-trained opponents

>>42116892
Anderson SIlva used wing chun trapping and the Isreali military uses Krav Maga.

wiggling on the floor in front of your oponent might work as well. You might pull a wrist lock, you might put a finger lock, your opponent might do a slow, exagerated haymaker that you deflect, making him fall over.
Shame you never actually put these techniques to the test in sparring, you'd realise they barely work as they're taught and you end up awkwardly doing judo
