Zhang Weili’s kungfu is Corrupting the Youth

The UFC went out of their way in recent promotional videos to sell the title fight between Chinese champion Zhang Weili, and former champ Joanna Jedrzejczyk, by emphasizing Zhang Weili’s traditional kungfu background and saying nothing of her actual combat sports training.

Clearly, there was no bagua zhang, or taijiquan used in any ostensible way in that fight, and in spite of the fact that the bulk of Zhang’s training is Muay Thai and BJJ, the kungfu nerds of the internet have found their new patron saint.

But is this actually a problem? One of our viewers certainly thinks so. In fact he believes it’s putting impressionable young people in danger.

Is advertising Zhang Weili’s kungfu background as the reason she wins fights corrupting the youth?

Shanghai based MMA Coach and Kunlun Fight Combat League ringside commentator Ramsey Dewey answers questions from the viewers.
