Who's the greatest karate instructor of all?
453078
first of all, to be politically correct, Karate is not Kung Fu. If you want to asked who is the best Martial Artist Instructor of all time, it would be Bruce Lee. Bruce Lee teached Jeet Kun Do a different type of martial arts. But if you wanted to know who is the best KARATE instructor, I guess Chuck Norris since he got several schools still going on.

I don't know, but it won't be a world champion, it would be the champions instructor. I would think that the best in the world at Kata would be humble enough that we would not have heard of them.

Bruce Lee is indeed the true master here. Or was. Regardless, Bruce Lee was aparently so fast and powerful, he could drop a board from shoulder height and smash it with either fist or foot before it hit the ground. Asides from that, he created the 1 and 3 inch power punch. One more thing, in his fight scenes he actually had to slow himself down so the camera would be able to catch his moves on film, otherwise all you would see would be a blur and you couldn't see what he was doing.

Look for "Ong-bak".  Tony Jaa is amazing.  Anything you can find with him will appeal to a martial arts fan.

Wing Chun kung-fu: Like most of the stylized kung-fu systems out there they get caught up in the who's instead of the why's and how's. The fixed positions and the inability to expand out of their systems fighting position leaves it vunerable to take downs, angled attacks, multiple person situations, and takes too long to implement the ideas to practical use.\n\nTaekwondo: You're represented by the biggest morons out there WTF and ATA. These orginizations are out for your money, boosting their prestige, and brain washing you into believing that there is a purpose to what they are doing. All the while, WTF specifically, handing you this crock of shit on how long taekwondo has been in existance. Because of their predjudice outlook toward the karate/Japanese culture in which it originated from they've developed a sport based on a game played over 1000 years ago and make people think they're actually learning how to defend themselves. They refuse to look toward proper training for fighting effectively taking them out of the true realm of martial arts. Now there are some fairly solid TKD orginizations out there but they're not represented by the vast majority thus undermining any attempt at validating their system.\n\nKempo: Like saying car, there is no true identity for this system of martial arts. Are we Japanese, American or Chinese. Who give a rats ass. Most systems have tried their damndest (is that really a word?) to validate a fairly effective group of fighting techniques while others get bogged down in the muck of trying to lay claim to some wierd Chinese Shaolin authenticity. Kenpo/Kempo has been represented over many years as some of the hardest hitting, most ferocious fighters in existance. There was a reason they became popular but because of greeed they watered it down to a state where you'd be lucky to find an instructor that wouldn't get you killed in your first encounter on the street. Now a majority of kempo guys are fat, out of shape bastards who are more interested in getting your check book then getting in shape. They have gone the way of TKD but fortunately most schools are changing for the better and maybe in the next decade or so they can rise to the prestige they deserve.\n\nShaolin Kung-fu/Wu Shu: Doesn't exist people it's fucking myth, as a martial arts you are learning to be a fucking gymnast/ballet dancer. Fucking stage performers are all they are. If you like that shit fine but stop licking the balls of these so called Chi masters as if most their stuff wasn't parlor tricks and simple athletic acrobatic techniques. Simple and to the point.\n\nOther systems of Kung-fu: if you aren't training in modern ways then you're not training in Kung-fu. Systems were not to be mired down to tradition they were supposed to change with the time, passing on techniques that worked and adding new ones on to make their respective kwoons "bad ass". Unfortunately you've all seen too many Jet Li and Jackie Chan circle jerk movies and believe half that shit is real. It's the fucking movies people get over it.\n\nJudo: Fucking turning into a bunch of pansies I swear, they outlaw so many moves we're soon going to be left with nothing but a pussified sumo match where only pushing is allowed.\n\nJujitsu: The problem here is identity. Like so many arts Jujitsu wears many masks and covers many different areas of grappling. Some Jujitsu systems look like modern MMA events while others are so bogged down in theoretical shit that they have no comprehension on what works and what doesn't work. Bottom line is if you haven't done it against a fully resisting opponent you'll have no idea if it'lll really work. Most of these practitioners get tied down to tradition and never question for a second their "masters" teaching because they've seen him/her throw some cooperative bitch around. Find Jujitsu that works people.\n\nBrazillian Juj

Tough question! I would have to go with Fast Eddie as to me he was the ultimate hustler and he taught Vincent everything that Vincent knew. Certainly at his prime Fast Eddie would have beaten Vincent hands down.

Rock Lee because he's the best in taijutsu of all the gennins to me. Also he can beat a lot of gennins even that he can't use ninjustu and genjutsu

Kung fu is the most comprehensive.  Karate is more rigid, and will hurt your joints easily.  On the other hand kung fu is more fluid.  As for fighting-well each has his own way.  The best way is to learn alittle from a class then stop classes and do your own research and teach yourself.  Martial arts is best learned when you teach yourself, after all-no one can teach you, only help show you the way

this is a difficult question to answer because there are loads of bishounens aka hot guys in rk. but if i have to choose one, i'd definitely pick saitou hajime. you can't really tell if he's a bad guy or not especially at the beginning. plus, he's smart and everything he says is so funny and sarcastic and witty at the same time. i love him so much. and he'll definitely kick kenshin's a** anytime.
