A stick extendends the arm, velocity and impact of any combater. To defend yourself against one such takes great skill, regardless of the attackers level.
Everything works fine in slow-motion. No offense intended, I make the same criticism for some techniques in FMA, which I practice. Full-speed sparring clarifies it all.
Some of the longer stick techniques are very similar to those of the Bujinkan. There are only so many ways to use a stick as a shield and to apply leverage...
God-dam Vladimir you are just the Greatest fighter i've every seen. If any one tried to jump Vladimir he would most likely kill or take them down in under a fraction of a second

1:02 - At first view, it looked to be an accident. But watching where you placed your left hand during the slow-motion shot, Kwan's stick goes right to it. As always, you are in complete control of yourself, and with that, your environment...

Did you just accuse a 4000 year old martial art of ripping off a Malay art that comes from it's main deep roots in the Malay Kingdoms of ancient times? Filipino Stick fighting originated from their ancestors- Malays and Indonesians. Russian Systema, Poznai Sebia, has been fighting for 4000 years, the Philippines was hardly alive then- still belonging to the Aetas. The main reason they developed their stick skills was due to their whip skills, which is from their Sabres- Shaskas.
@DeathlyHalcyon WTF malay and indo ancestors, haha you make me laugh, Hey jerk Do not laughing at me, FYI the kali arnis eskrima sikaran panantukan dirty boxing pekiti tirsia etc original invented by filipino martial arts since world war, And do not be stupid they are not similar martial arts other nations, So do not trigger idiot, in your dream, Shame on you Lmao,
Not as good as FMA ?, why ?; because it doesn't have the artistic/choreographed non-sense of stick versus stick hitting ?. This is EFFICIENT, stick straight to the body to finish the fight fast.
