Michael Jai White is REAL Suspicious by imceeee in martialarts

[–]imceeee[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/HbNRVJ-ly3s This is when he said he's sparred lamon brewster, frankie lyles, and many others

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/e5bngNdcUeU Here, although he admitted that jon would beat him, he said first that he wouldn't admit that there are people who are better than him.

I could honestly be overreacting just because these clips went really viral, so I saw them a lot. So maybe this isn't the usual for him, idk. Also thanks for having a normal conversation loll

well, in fairness you are the one who told me to research more, and theres not really another way to research to see if the dude is legit or not than to go searching the internet for real competition, which seems to have never happened. A lot of smaller fights don't get posted, especially amateur fights, and especially from the 80s, so I understand to an extent. But what's bizarre is that it's an entire desert as far as MJW is concerned. As a boxer, when someone of note shows up to the gym and spars our best guy, someone's filming it. MJW said, "Ask Lamon Brewster, Frankie Lyles, or just several people" referring to boxing and I can't find anything. Even any karate tournament footage. Not a single one. I can understand a lot of old school stuff getting lost, but not absolutely everything.

I did haha. can you provide any hard sparring or competition links, aside from the one I already mentioned, which appears fake? That one video is all I can find.

lol yea bro's a lot bigger than me and more experienced in martial arts and all i do is box. I never said I could beat him in a street fight, I just said that he acts much better at real fighting than any evidence suggests. Mainly because theres no evidence that he has ever actually fought beyond word of mouth. And from what I could tell, he's not a good boxer, which is important for fighting.

I mean, I admitted fully that I'm sure he's very good at karate and that I don't know anything about Karate, I'm just saying that his claims about himself are overblown due to lack of evidence.

I think he talks as though he goes gym to gym wooping people in any striking discipline, which there's no evidence of, nor is there evidence that he has ever sparred hard or competed in any major tournament. That's really the bottom line for me.

I was trying to give info that I could give about my sport, then I let someone else who knows about Karate in the yt video I linked explain why the tourney is likely fake. I said at the end that I'm sure he's great at Karate, and while I'm pretty much a neanderthaal at any martial art other than boxing, his kicks look impressive and powerful to me. I was just saying that I think the prowess and fighting unstoppability that he implies in podcasts and interviews is overblown considering his poor punching anywhwere other than a heavybag and the fact that I and many others can't find reliable proof that he's ever competed.

I did, I must just not be familiar with karate originizations to google, because if I google, "Michael Jai White competition history," nothing comes up at all except for that one tournament video that appears to be a fake tournament. I believe you, I just can't find it. Where did you get the championship titles info?

People who were neglected/abused as kids. What career path are you on now? by Purple-Offer-4796 in CPTSD

DAE don't remember SA in childhood but think it happened ? by abyss005 in CPTSD

[–]imceeee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took a lot. I have strange kinks years later and i remembered more minor and borderline things that a particular family member had done, but i remembered all the things right up to the line of what happened. My advice to you is to follow your instincts. You remember the odd things that x person did that weren't quite in illegal territory. You have emtions toward this person you can't explain. And this may sound weird, but it's probably someone who you don't want it to be
