Way too effective and deadly for sure Big smile

Seriously though I don't know what to think about systema. Haven't seen systema techniques used in fights or the cage unless it is already a technique in another combat sport.

I pray for the day an attacker walks calmly toward me reaching out with one hand like a zombie.

Looks really effective, looks like dim mak, as he is using basically no force and getting people to the ground.

Yeah no kidding. Anyone who is not using this stuff in MMA is a total fail. Wouldn't hurt to add some of these techniques to your list of belt requirements eh?

I've only seen it in demonstrations so I have no idea how well it really works. They should show it in use against someone attacking the way most people actually attack which is running and swinging heavily, or countering a sucker punch. Also getting jumped...

Even my 7 year old daughter asked me "why doesn't he just kick the guy in the leg?" at the 2:05 mark.

I don't understand the video? Slap boxing and grappling?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systema

they hunt and peck for tiny pressure points to knock you out instantly. the fat guy that looks like george dillman's long lost brother has even done no touch k.o.'s.

looks like it is russian tai chi. crouching tiger, hidden polar bear

if you cant beat them, arrange to have them beaten.

I'd be curious to hear Reilley or SamboSteve take on Systema?
