Anybody here familiar with this guy?

I really like his attitude towards wing chun and training over all. I'm not really one to go in for competitions, but I like to train as if I do and it seems to me that lack of 'alive' training in real position and with full contact are sadly lacking from many, if not most WC schools.
How do folks here feel about kung fu in full contact tourneys? MMA?
Wanna see fighters step up and 'take it back'?
Think competition is just for ego-strokin?
Personally, I love the thought of strength and cardio training playing a bigger part in WC. Don't get me wrong, I'm a technical nut, but damn I get bored if that's all there is to it. Luckily I have one of those rare sifus that picks your brain and busts your a$$.
