My take on this episode -
Doug injured himself and did not so well in his fight, eeriely as predicted by a "fortune teller" at the start of the episode.
Jimmy did very well, good technique, very smooth and fought well against his opponent. However, Jimmy's fight was very much of "boxing" style and his opponent got injured halfway during the match.
What is Hapkido?
Hapkido (also spelled hap ki do or hapki-do) is a dynamic and eclectic Korean martial art. It is a form of self-defense that employs joint locks, pressure points, throws, kicks, and other strikes. Hapkido practitioners train to counter the techniques of other martial arts as well as common unskilled attacks. There are also traditional weapons including short stick, cane, rope, nunchucks, sword and staff which vary in emphasis depending on the particular tradition examined. ... more at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hapkido
