elvis was such a fake, he was legitly a 1st dan black belt but he went up to 7th dan in no time at all because he was buying his unstructors edd parker and mike stone cars and houses, edd parker was a 7th dan himself but had to ask his superiors to be awarded an 8th dan just so he could award elvis his 7th dan, edd was a complete sellout taking gifts in exchange for elvis desparate to be 7th dan. and as you can see elvis then walks around cocky as fuck thinking hes a god, well its all a shambles folks elvis was not the standard of a 7th dan he only actually earnt his 1st dan the rest he simply bought with bribes because his instructors were also his bodygaurds. dont believe the bs elvis was a joke, nothing but an egotistic drug addict

It’s wonderful to watch. Love his jazzed up Karate suit! He was so passionate about Karate and demonstrated his craft well. Elvis was in the process of making a documentary or movie about Karate. But it got shelved for some reason, probably by the Col. The world did not get to see the full potential of Elvis aand his passion for Karate.
The application of Martial Arts is to help you grow as a person in life following a path of realisation and then that enables you to defend yourself in precarious situations after years of training,against an assailant in the street. It is quite another concept to step into a ring and fight an opponent!!! I love Elvis and his carreer as a performer, I love the Fact that he followed Martial Arts as a passion in improving Himself as a Human being and for self defense. Elvis had a heap of trained bodyguards around him at all Times!!! In the last instance if something would happen Elvis could apply what he learned!!! However Let Elvis step into a ring and go fullout against Bill Wallace, I'm afraid Wallace would have killed him!!!! I also think the same if Elvis would have fought the West brothers no holds barred and all out!!!! But that was not why Elvis lived his life
Very risky in case something happened and he damaged his throat or vocal chords. Thank God nothing did. I know he didn't spar because he didn't want to have an injury to his face. But to risk that voice - oh my.
Judging by his level of skill in this demonstration, he didn't spar because it would look bad to have an 8th degree black belt getting embarrassed by a yellow belt smh.. This is a joke and an embarrassment to real martial artists
Elvis was a badass. He became a 3rd degree black belt ! He put Alice Cooper on his back and took a gun away from him in 5 seconds. ---Frank Taormina , fan since 1956.
Real ... I seen real demos of Kendo . Seen a Karate master stick a 12 inch needle through his neck on TV and then went to his Hialeah, Fl USA dojo and do it live and I saw It! .. Elvis was a real master and no joke!
@@wyldvigilante Yeah sure...Where did you get that information from? Is that the reason why Ed Parker was his coach for many years - because Elvis was such an embarrassment for him?🤣😅😂
@@naturestone3148I think the bigger question is WHY DONT YOU KNOW THAT ? WHy THE ATTITUDE? Why are you so bothered that someone knows something you don’t? You think if you are ignorant about something it simply doesn’t exist? You need to check yourself with that attitude
@@wyldvigilante Thxs Bro. Have a good time studying ducks and making up statements about 8th Dan Karatemasters.☝️You are bored...I assume, just trolling around... I don‘t have to prove that Elvis Presley was a skilled Karate blackbelt. The facts are clear. You made the childish statement that his Karate is worth nothing and that a coach that trained him for years saw him as an embarassement. I have to prove the statement you made? ☝️🤔 How does that make sense? What do you think i will find if I google or write in the RU-vid searchbar: „Was Elvis Presley“s Karate effective as a duck? Or: Was Elvis Presley an embarassement for Ed Parker“s Kenpo? I will find: Nothing☝️ Only links about Elvis Presley kicking 3 dudes of the stage at a Liveconcert in Las Vegas with his „DUCKLIKE“ Karate skills. ☝️😎💪💪💪❤️ Go and troll the next DEAD Legend if it makes you feel good. 🙏🙏🙏 I don’t have to take someone serious that wants ME to prove the BS you made up. Go try to get an 8th Dan rank in Karate in 14years. I‘ll probably be 30 years in my grave when you achieved that.
@@wyldvigilante Boring...Have a good night sleep. See you at some comment about MJ's nose. I bet you are an expert on plastic surgery too. I will sub your channel without having a look at it. Making you happy. ☝️👍💪
@@BreadCatMarcus You are completely missing the point. Someone who has a fighting instinct does not ever need to be rescued as they will fight versus getting picked on
@@wyldvigilante He gave hundreds of Cadillacs away in his life time...Basic knowledge about him. He just liked to surprise people and see the smile on their faces. That`s all. More likely the same with his Karate-Coach if he taught him well.
Elvis Presley had surgery to have an ingown nail removed from a big toe. Kenpo is a system of karate that can be adopted to suit the practitioner. Elvis Presley also trained in Korean Pasaryu karate.
Impressive; authentic; thank you, for the video. It is good to see Elvis outside of the music performance or a movie engaged is something about which he is passionate. Do you know when, where, and at what event this took place?
Authentic? 😆 Authentic BS. You obviously have absolutely no clue how fake this is. He paid someone to give him an 8th degree black belt and made a mockery of martial arts
This is to the individual who left the unfavourable comment. You say Elvis made a mockery of martial arts. So what, nobody's perfect. It's what he did for music that counts. Now you can't take that away from him.
The first time that Elvis and Ali met, Elvis told him he loved Karate. Ali told Elvis you are too pretty to be a fighter, keep doing what you are doing. Elvis jumped up and Ali jumped up in a fight stance. Everyone was fearing and Elvis slid his leg behind Ali so quickly that nobody knew until Ali was on his ass and they both were laughing. Elvis knew his karte.
@@harrisdupree3323 Yes, it happened. The event was spoken about while Ali was alive. Elvis Presley was a great friend of Ali. Elvis Presley stayed at Deer Lake compound with Ali in Pennsylvania many times. Know what you're talking about before posting because those that actually know about Elvis Presley just laugh at your nonsense.
