This sounds a little bit like the people who didn’t fight in the UFC because they wanted to keep their art ‘secret’.

- notoriousjpg 5y agoMakes no sense. Jet Li has legitimate kung fu pedigree and has won multiple martial arts tournaments.
- Delk 5y agoI don't think it sounds like that at all, from what the article says. Rather it sounds like he didn't want the skills he had spent years practising and learning to be potentially subject to cheap replication by technology. That would turn something that used to be a skill learned through effort into a commodity, at least as far as film goes. I can easily see how that would seem like a bad deal for the actor. It could also feel like it devalues the skills themselves. That's orthogonal to the applicability of those skills in the UFC or whatever.
