I really enjoyed this one.

There’s a whole lot of guys in MA that I’d never go against, but Eric Paulson has scared me for about forty years.

But I would have loved to have met the man.
 
While at the Kali Academy, Paul did a lot of classes in the South Asia arts FMA, Silat, etc. In Eskrido, like most FMA these techniques are taught simply as self defense. If someone attacks with a weapon or it’s ascertained that it’s life threatening, we’re not concerned about whether it’s career ending or not.
 
I like Eric Paulson’s material a lot and would love the chance to train with him.

That said, I was a little disappointed in this video. It seemed that often he just jumped to the first technique in his repertoire which roughly resembled the pictures in the Bubishi rather than looking more carefully to see how the details of the illustrations might indicate something a bit different from what he does.
