It seems Xu Xiaodong isn’t the only Chinese MMA fighter dealing out embarrassing beat downs to traditional martial arts practitioners.

A video has gone viral of a Chengdu man, who trains in wing chun, challenging fighters from a Sichuan MMA promotion to face him.

“Do you guys want to fight me?” he said, posing in a kung fu stance, in a video posted on Chinese social media platform Douyin.

His request was respectable – he only wanted to test his skills and represent wing chun.

Professional Chinese fighter Li Jinhong accepted the challenge, and the two men stepped into the cage at a Chengdu gym in footage which appeared to be filmed last December.

Unsurprisingly, it was all over in six seconds.
