What's the point of any demonstration? Why does the NBA have a dunk contest? There is a lot more than dunking in basketball. Why does baseball have a home run derby? There is a lot more to baseball than home runs. Why does Floyd Mayweather let reporters in to see him jump rope and hit the focus mitts? I have yet to see a boxer pull out a jump rope during a fight. Demonstration shows a level of training and proficiency at your craft. It doesn't mean that this is your whole art.

Not hating, just super uninformed. Moms wouldn't let me take no classes back in the day, my cousin used to shyt himself cause he got molested by a cac black belt sensei. 
So there's a professional aspect to these demonstrations where dudes make money competing against other 'fighters'? Are bones ever broken...on purpose?
What is considered a Dunk, Home Run or letting reporters in the see a boxer jump rope and hit the focus mitts in the Martial Arts?
School me and post up videos of high level competitions that would be the equivalent to the NBA, MLB and Professional Boxing.

No animosity in my tone at all, I respect you wanting to find out more. Just to give you some background info on the Grandmaster, He is the security trainer for the brothers that do security for the Nation of Islam and the personal security of Louis Farrakhan. He worked in Rikers Island for a number of years as a guard. He has been recognized by several martial arts hall of fames. He has martial arts schools in New York and Chicago and he even offers free classes to newcomers so that they can see what he does is all about. Anyone who says he couldn't handle himself on the streets is misiformed and has obviously never trained with him. However, you won't see him pounding his chest or shouting about his accolades because he is a very humble brother, as most masters are. and like I stated earlier he has over 40 years of training in various martial arts. He has a seminar coming up on June 6 and 7 if anyone wants to get a firsthand look at what he does.

One more and I'm done.. count how many strikes there are in this 5 second clip.
You see it as being frozen but understand when your fighting someone and y'all grab each other it's only for a for couple of seconds which is more then enough time to perform a take down. I got into a fight awhile back and while Im not 10th degree black belt, I am a orange belt in Japanese Jujitsu and I was able to drop homie on his face. It's all about the time you use friend
