I'm very familiar with the "Chuck Liddell for a day" routine. If you fight those guys in a bar, I find the baz rutten method quite effective.

I would simply ask the guy where and who has he fought? Chances are that he will get embarrassed and walk away after he can't think of a organization and fighters to throw out there.

Yeah. But someguys do some backround research without using their smarts and throw names around. I had one guy throw out the name of one of my buddies, who trains in that gym with us. We had a good laugh after that one.

I ussually make fun of people who tell me they are a black or high ranked brown/blue belt. You can ussually tell how well trained they are, by how they respond. Whether they go flying at you, fists a flying. Or they talk to you about it... I have never met a black belt, that is eager to hurt someone.

That is one reason why they are a black belt.

Right. And so, you can tell that they are phoney ? That's what I'm saying.

Sadly they do exist, and usually it is do to lack of character on the part of the person in general and a failure of the instructor to notice teh character flaw in hte person being trained, though they are rare they do exist. Just like in the Karate kid there are those schools that teach violence as the answer as opposed to it being the last resort. this is what gives some martial artists bad names

Yea most have heard the bad stories but no one who actualy claims these things against him has ever brouhgt proof of them from what I understand its all hearsay, so I am not sure if they are true or not. I never heard of him getting arrested for anything. so are these rumurs or truth? I think Van Damme is worse he has gotten publicly drunk and into fights ( most he lost) and stuff like that.
