    EDIT: So basically you are saying that if I fight like a wrestler I will die like a wrestle? My point was that Kung Fuist will win because they don't fight like wrestlers.
    I thought the topic was about a sports-level comparison of martial arts when it comes to grappling.

    In real life, chances are, these masters of grappling who are used to fighting oiled, unoiled and in casual wear as you could imagine, would make a paste out of you.

Feel free to do a Stork's stab finisher (with foot raised high in the air and full force stomping the neck or skull), death is definitely the result.
    lol, that REALLY depends on the Kung Fu you study. I would not grapple in real life of course, but my point was that if I did grapple, principles from Kung Fu seem to work better than real grappling arts.

    Maybe. I am sure there are those who could, but they are martial artists with a lot more experience and in a lot better shape. How would they fare against a Kung Fuist on their level and with their level of fitness? I cannot compare that, but I can compare me (a relatively inexperienced martial artist who is not in the best of shape) and my youngest brother (who has had only 2nd hand martial arts knowledge from me and is very small) with grapplers who are much more experienced than us and in much better shape than me. Kung Fu wins. I have wrestled for instance guys from my college team who were highly ranked on the Rapids Team in high school (I am sure that means nothing to you, but Rapids wins the state wrestling championships...every year :P), and have held my own at worst and at best have been able to consistently win. (we don't do it by wrestling rules though. For instance, we don't require that to grab the head you need an arm as well. We basically say anything goes but strikes and eye-gouges :P)
    My little brother (who is tiny at 170 lbs) has been able to out grapple guys who weigh 200+ and were champion wrestlers in high school (and one who apparently was pretty good in college as well).
    Of course we would not stand a chance against pros, but then again we are not pros ourselves. My point is that on a relatively fair comparison, Kung Fu seems to be superior to grappling (at least if most rules are removed).

    for somewhat reasons, I think CW boast too much about his ability to strike with a kick, I've seen he's quite often choked and dragged by his twin sister, and he can do nothing

    I only recently started training and I was what in most sports would be labeled Bantam or even less. And I wrestled with guys almost literally double my weight and I won. Some who had quite a bit of Martial arts experience some who didnt. Actually one of two guys I lost to was a judoka. So from my experience it's best to not do martial arts, to weigh as little as possible, to not train your muscles if you want to win wrestling games. And if you do want to train, pick Judo.

    Of course we all know that isn't true, but that shows what personal experience can do.

    Well, I will believe it if a wrestler or Judoka my size or less can beat me. I have thrown my Judo instructor Moros, and never met a Judoka who was able to actually throw me. I have never studied a grappling art prior to Judo. I am gonna be giving Wrestling a chance to prove itself after Spring Break actually. One of my brother's friends was a champion in highschool, and one of the best on the college team, AND he is nearly my size. My bro is going to be hooking me up with him after break for a friendly match or two. :) I will let you know the result. Considering that I have never seriously studied a grappling art, and am fat, out of shape, and have several physical disabilities, there is not reason that he should not be able to beat me in a grappling match...but we will see. (and no, I am not planning on training for it either :P)
