Cung Le On Using His San Shou Background in MMA
Former Strikeforce middleweight champion Cung Le recently talked to Heavy.com about using his San Shou background in MMA.
He said:
“Well, San Shou has all the elements: punching, kicking, sweeping, throwing high and low. It has a lot of different elements, and I’m able to apply a lot of the stuff I do in San Shou into MMA. The difference is that when you hit the ground, you have to transition into looking for submissions or start looking for ground and pound, or you try to stand right back up. It’s just like San Shou in that you have to keep your audience and the crowd happy.”
Le is scheduled to take on Scott Smith at Strikeforce: Evolution on December 19.
