The guy on the right keeps his sword behind his body. He has no guard. He invited his opponent to attack him. He then counters it. You need to have good speed in order to do so.example of not using a physical guard against a physical guard

For hands only.If these 2 were people that you were training. What advice would you give them as their coach or trainer?
This is the first thing I look for as well in all martial arts except for MMA. MMA is such a mix bag of taking pieces of systems that it's not possible to know if they trained in one system or not.What I look for in clips, regardless of level, is whether the practitioners are using what they train in.
Good speed and excellent timing. Unless you are in your teens and 20's where the reaction time is naturally better than someone in their 40's and 50's. Encouraging the strike you want is also a good plan. Never let your opponent choose the strikes to throw. Always do things to encourage the strike that you want. This makes it less of a guessing game.The guy on the right keeps his sword behind his body. He has no guard. He invited his opponent to attack him. He then counters it.

This is easy to do. You can always set the sparring rule that student can only win that round if they use a certain technique they train.they use what they train.
I agree and unfortunately that is one rule that I did not make in sparring. I will probably do it the next time I teach Jow Ga depending on the person I'm teaching and their willingness to try and explore with a technique. Your way addresses a person's desire to win. Shape what counts as winning.This is easy to do. You can always set the sparring rule that student can only win that round if they use a certain technique they train.

2 man sets can be useful if used correctly. However the major problem with 2 man sets is that they are usually System A vs System A.2 man set, example of how the style is used.
Do not use "zombie arms" ... Extending straight arms to keep the person away will not stop punches.
Straightening both arms (Zombie) while trying to grab can get you KOd.Zombie arms is used to obtain clinch.
Yes. In Holloway vs Topuria, Ilia...Case in point, did anybody see the Holloway/Topuria fight? Obviously, both stand up fighters. Topuria’s superior boxing skills dominated the fight. Granted there is much more to MMA than boxing and boxing, although definitely adds to self defense doesn’t necessarily make for good street self defense in and of itself, as going fisticuffs with an assailant isn’t optimal. But it seems when virtually any MA spars it simply becomes boxing with kicks included. It might become something more, but that’s how it typically starts out.
However the majore problem with 2 man sets is that they are usually System A vs System B.
This reminds me of someone trying to stop a linear punch. Cicular punche can not be stopped at the bicep or the shoulder, in short because the energy of the punch isn't coming forward, it's coming from the side. This is the expected outome. Had he kept his arm at the original angle that he had and sent pushed the arm into the circular punch then he would have been able to keep that punch from landing on his facce like that. He made the same mistake twice in that video. clip.Straightening both arms (Zombie) while trying to grab can get you KOd.
it looks like he got hit with a Hammer Fist.Shara does a spinning backfist which is blocked by Armen.
Yeah the problem is my spelling lol but I corrected. it. .I should be Systm A vs System A.Problem ?
It's getting you used to the distancing, positioning, timing and movements of System A. Jow Ga vs Jow Ga 2 man set = everything about your opponent is distancing, positioning, timing, and movement of Jow Ga.Concepts taught using two man sets, distancing, positioning, timing and movement in such a way
that people can get used to the ebb and flow, applying strategies later to be used free form...
lol Only when you don't go out. lol Jow Ga kung fu only made sense to me when I stopped doing Jow Ga Kung Fu vs Jow Ga Kung fu. Once I started sparring against other people outside of Jow Ga, things began to make more sense and thanks to that I advanced faster in 1 year than most people do in 5 years. I also take pride that I can use almost all of the techniques in the beginner form Sei Ping with the exception of 2. 1 can't do because I don't understand and the other, I can't do because I'm overweight and too slow with that technique.Problem ?

ie a training aid...much like this...
In CMA there is a saying "十年不出门" (shí nián bù chū mén)
Ten years without going out...Takes awhile to develop the skill sets later to be tested.
and the spelling is still bad. I can't spell "it" nor can I spell "System."Yeah the problem is my spelling lol but I corrected. it. .I should be Systm A vs System A.
This is done most of the time by showing a particular guard that seemingly leaves you open to certain lines of attack. This passive method of eliciting/luring a certain attack from the opponent often works but does have its drawbacks. 1. The openings you provide may not be attacks the opponent likes/is able to do. 2. On the other hand, he may be very good at those attacks, and even if you're expecting them, they may come faster and stronger than you can handle or may come with a surprise twist. I think this strategy is best done when you are familiar with the opponent's fighting style/skills. 3. The opponent may see thru your ploy. In the end, it is you that must respond to an attack the opponent has initiated. This carries some degree of risk.Always do things to encourage the strike that you want. This makes it less of a guessing game.
