Real wushu is pretty, but it's not really a combat art.
It's basically a version of acrobatics.
No reasonable person would waste their energy flipping and spinning in actual combat.
I feel like i'm stating the obvious, but apparently many of you would disagree

No.....it's not.
Real combat is always minimalistic and to the point. Doesn't matter if it's sword combat or hand to hand.
You will not do anything that's not necessary or you will quickly get tired and get owned.
Just look at MMA. Do you see any fighters training wushu, or incorporating it's techniques? no. For a good reason.
Wushu is more a performing art than anything.

Some MMA fighters mix in a complex, acrobatic move every once and a while to confuse, and possibly knock out, their opponent.
