In regards to sunriser's post:

1. There are currently two types of San Shou athletes in China. MOST, by far 90%, are amateurs who work a day job and then go to a sports program practice to work out. They fight in the amatuer events which DO NOT have knee or elbows and are fought WITH padding and head gear. Several of the fighters matched against the Thais in BOTH China AND Thailand were this kind of San Shou athlete. I have already said I would have never put these kind of fighters against professional Thai Muay Thai fighters. But the fact they survived is pretty good I gues and this was China's decision. Next time, as I already said several times, it should only be the pro King of San Da people

2. Because there are no elbows in San Shou, they have a disadvantage of course, but no crying over it. If you are arranging a fight with knees and elbows, TRAIN knees and elbows. When my fighters arrange to fight under Muay Thai rules, we STOP training the throws and start training the clinch and clinch striking. Otherwise it is their own stupidity.

You would think with the "prestige" involved in this event, the Chinese would have been smarter in preparing. Oh well, once again China has made a dumb decision which is hurting our sport!

3. Not only that, but the world championships were just a few weeks before and the best amateurs were not around for this. THis explains putting an amateur who took THIRD in the THailand matches I guess

By the way, I never said that Wan Yubao and the Mongolian were not professionals. I said they are not "world champions" since they never won that title

4. No point in compaining you used the wrong strategy ONCE you have lost.

5. Russian, Iranian and American San Shou fighters use IMPACT throws which do hurt and damage. China has not been known for this style. Ring has NOTHING to do with it

6. Again, if you make and agree to the arrangements don't bitch about it afterwards. It is no better than Thai fighters who agree to no elbows and when the lose then complain that without elbows it wasn't fair

I personally am not fond of elbows, but would love to see the knees back in amateur competition
