Why the Chinese martial arts will lose to modern combat

First of all, it is important to distinguish between the concepts, the concept of modern combat is too general, do you mean taekwondo, or karate, or mixed martial arts, or Muay Thai, boxing, judo? Freestyle wrestling? Sanshou?

First of all, I would say that Sanshou is a derivative of traditional Chinese martial arts, and MMA is based on the concept of traditional Chinese martial arts, if you let the set piece athletes and the Sanshou athletes go to fight, then I think most of the time they can't win, but you let the Sanshou athletes go to challenge the top of the real Chinese traditional martial arts industry, and I don't think they can win.

Even the ones that are active in the ring are quite a few that are out of the traditional martial arts system. This can't be divided, they end up claiming whatever they want to the public, depending on the need. Fighting Muay Thai matches of course counts as Muay Thai, fighting MMA of course counts as MMA. I come from a solid traditional background, and I've met a few seniors as well, but some people think we fight simply modern combat, but I'd have to say they've never seen traditional combat.

But you have to say that the Chinese martial arts in the combat industry is relatively backward, this I think irrefutable, indeed backward, in the professional sports industry, our country can reach the world average level of sports is not much, soccer is an example, combat is no exception. The whole industry, technically, training-wise, investment-wise, can't be compared. Look at the soccer industry for so many years, I feel that even if China's traditional martial arts combat on the road to professionalism, but want to really in the world's first-class status, that is still early.
