Wing Chun Warrior, Duncan Leung's True Fighting Episodes

Bruce Lee's Fighting Companion, Yip Man's Private Student and Formal Disciple, Founder of Applied Wing Chun, Instructor to the FBI, SWAT Teams, and the US Navy Seals, Including stories of Bruce Lee's Defeat and Yip Man's Triumph. by Ken Ing MD
 
"This new book is wonderfully informal and instructive. Ken Ing, helps to describe the art of Sifu Duncan Leung who is a FIGHTING Wing Chun teacher. Leung was originally introduced to Yip Man by his boyhood friend Bruce Lee. Leung became Yip Man's personal disciple for some years and during that time engaged in hundreds of fights to test his prowess. There are many stories and personal revelations that should be fascinating, intriguing and occasionally infuriating to students of this style and those interested in the clouds surrounding the Hong Kong days of Bruce Lee and others. Comic style drawings re-enact incidents and challengers from Leung's life. This is really an interesting text. It tries to give the spirit of the style as seen from Leung's standpoint and makes no bones about suggesting that much Wing Chun training is incomplete. However, unlike so much martial bragging we get the impression from this spirited text that Leung wants the best for the style and the students. This is the story of someone who has, at least by all reports, tested the style. His no-nonsense approach shows, at least on some levels, the dedication and adaptability of the fighter." Ted Mancuso

This is NOT a comic book.  It is a nice hard-cover book, that has some comic illustrations of some of the fights.

These are the last of the hard-back versions of this book available!
 

Wing Chun Archive's Review:

Duncan Leung: Wing Chun Warrior
 
Wing Chun Archive Notes:

     Personally I liked this book (it's one of my favorites).  Many people don't like what they see of Duncan's style from his tapes, and I understand why - it's way different from the way they were taught (if you read the book you'll understand why). For me the book filled in a number of gaps about why Duncan is a bit different than the rest.  He was a personal student of Yip Man and trained privately with him for 4 years, and paid over 37x more a month than everyone else (including Bruce Lee, Wong Shun Leung, Chu Shong Tin, Lok Yiu, etc).  So Yip Man taught him differently (and more).  Duncan says in the book that Yip Man taught the others Wing Chun, he taught Duncan how to apply (fight with) Wing Chun - and the two are not the same.  Duncan never trained with his class mates, and had to go pick fights to learn to use his Wing Chun.

     The fights in the book are very toned down from what I hear.  Duncan's exploits far exceed anything in this book, but I'm sure he wishes to remain humble.  He doesn't mention any names in the book, (so he doesn't embarrass other Wing Chun Sifus). All in all it's worth the read and a great addition to your collection.

Entertaining January 11, 2010
Reviewer: Will Wain-Williams from Tadcaster, North Yorkshire United Kingdom  
This is a good read, quite entertaining, but i leave it at that. i dont know how true these stories are, I would personally doubt some of them, it can be cheesey in places but well worth reading none the less. It tells some interesting stories of Yip Man, including when Yip Man beat a mantis fighter with one kick and it also has some stories about Bruce Lee including one where he got beaten by a Choy Li Fut practitioner.
