So you’d do pretty well in a fight now, or just a fake fight?Īt first, I’d walk down the street and think, “I know martial arts, I can do anything!” But I had to calm down, because the truth is, I’m really good at almost-but not quite-hitting people.The mission was similar in Wolf Warrior 2, but the real inspiration here seems to be Black Hawk Down.
