when you punch you make yourself vulnerable to counter techniques
well i will happily provide you with the punchs for you to counter
uncle fu... you're being toyed with. It's quite sad, really.
I guarantee you "Tassled" doesn't live in NZ. He must have known that you were from there, so he's using it to play with your mind.
Wristlocks work in similar fashion to toeholds. You have to control a limb then go for the smaller joint.
Generic Aikido-style wristlocks that are derived from catching punches out of the air aren't going to work.
I'll give you 7.0 for using 'wristlocks' in the first post.
Tasseled One,
I can appreciate your admiration for aikido and I also do for all Martial-arts.
Let me remind you that the reason the UFC was created was to first find the most effective with style vs. style.
It has been demonstrated that the ground is that Jiu-jitsu is the most effective in one art but even they need to also learn striking to compete at the top.
For the record though, here is an Aikido fighter did in the UFC: http://www.sherdog.com/fightfinder/fightfinder.asp?FighterID=885
9.2 very well executed.
Here's his record on another site that shows his style: http://fcfighter.brinkster.net/fighter.asp?FighterID=238065
Name: Jack McGlaughlin
Pro Record: 1-4-0
Style: Aikido
