actually bruce was not the generic karate kicker. he used a lot of MT and sivat as well as other "better" kicks. he also wrote that there is no reason to kick someone above their ribs and very much so believed in MT and sivat.

It's Savate and not sivat.
And yes, Bruce Lee did adopt a lot of Savate type Kicks and some MT kicks along with other striking techniques like knees and elbows.Comment

I strongly disagree. There is no "anti-high kick belief" in MT. It might not overly focus on high kicks but there prejudice against high kicks in MT. It's all about attacking what is open.Originally posted by FUH-Q

well, i wasnt refering to MT, i was only talking about bruce lee.
however, of my three MT instructors (two are thai) they all say that you should never attempt to kick a competent opponent above the ribs. if that persons upper defense is that bad use your hands and elbows. am i saying you should NEVER kick higher than the ribs, hell no, but you had better be VERY carefull and set it up correctly or you will get dumped on your a$$.Comment

If you listed all of the good fighters that went on to live their potential - they all reached a peak and sustained it, before most of them were defeated and gracefully retired.
With all due respect to Bruce, if he had reached his peak, sustained it, was dfeated, and then retired - do you think that this topic would ever had been discussed? I think not.
With Bruce there are too many if's, but's and maybe's for us to assume that he would've progressed to be the best fighter of all time, even though some truely believe that he is/was - which is fine by me.

so basically they are saying the same thing that i just said. "Don't force an attack rought take what's open, dont force the issue". Besides Samko is famous for his impartialness to his high kicks.Originally posted by FUH-Q
