Segal is just a fucking nut!
I think Gene Lebell choked away all his brain cells.
i called it :)
everytime i saw segal talking about anderson i just laughed
nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oo
Don't know if this video has been posted on the forums yet. Perhaps it could shed some more light on the matter. Could all be part of a marketing trick, who knows?
I don't know how to embedd the video, but it is a video of Seagal and Silva in training.

Saying Segal cant teach you anything is like flaming all of Aikido tho
i think its all just kinda gettin outa control with all these cats tryin to get there name in there again funny 2 me
Segal is funny, but Anderson did say he was already throwing that kick, & segal gave him a tip, which could be the '' Ball of the Foot '' detail which a lot of people miss. & Segal was the 1st westerner to have a dojo in japan, he went there at 17 & alone, had he went to Brazil, he'd be a jiujitsu wiz
I smell lazy journalism..

That was kind of how I had thought about it. Sort of like Joe giving GSP tips on his side kick. It's not like GSP had never thrown a turning side kick before. Joe just helped him fix his technique to add a lot more power.Quote:

segal movies while baked are hilarious
I think Silva still looks at Seagal as still being on top and figures rubbing elbows with him will give him more some type of credit or something little does Silva know that Seagal is washed up and dated just like vandamn, power rangers, and vanilla ice. HA.
Educated fighters and fans laugh at these journalists :D
