Sabaki is one of the best tournament style competitions in America. I was honored to compete in the 2015 Sabaki challenge. Loved it, was an amazing experience.
I had the magazine of him he came out with combat taekwondo. He was on the cover of taekwondo magazine. I wish I still had it. May it be wrote some money now
As you can see, khyokushin is not always the best fighting style… sometime is better shotokan, sometimes taekwondo, sometimes goyu ryu, sometimes kyokushin.
Oyama Masutatsu explained that it had a lot to do with the philosophy of Kyokushin (where Enshin Karate originates from), where they want to test who truly is the strongest. Basically, if you're allowed to punch to the face, there would be way more KOs. There would be many bloodied faces that require medical check up, and broken noses/sealed, dotted eyes that may result in the fight being called off, even if the fighter could continue. They do allow slams and head kicks, though, so there is still that danger and requirement to block high to avoid powerful a KO attempt.
@@oshadayasas Not at all, I mentioned open hand strikes, but even with closed fists allowed, the absence of elbows would make a huge difference, and you could either ban clinches or else allow for gi throws and either would ensure a huge difference. Lastly even if you had the exact same rules and equipment, Kyokushin would still be a different style than muay Thai The idea that we need silly rules to keep martial arts distinct just makes the encumbered martial art irrelevant, like kyokushin is now
without gloves but it's kiokushinkay, sorry but I find ridiculous these rules of body punches, better the real full contact, then I don't like this style too gymnastic, Exalted Smashing All Ice Bull Tablets I prefer wado ryu
From what I have gathered, in the early days of Kyokushin karate training, bare knuckle strikes to the face were allowed, but this resulted in many injuries, and blood, which caused some students to withdraw from training. Also, they wanted the matches to last, be a challenge and not end due to cuts. They did for some time wrap their hands in towels, but Sosai Oyama believed that wearing protective gloves would take away from the realistic nature that his style was building. Therefore, it was decided that hand and elbow strikes to the face, head and neck would no longer be allowed in training and competition that's it.
fun fact. my dad did the voiceover for all of these videos. he used to bring home these vhs tapes to me when he'd come home from his business trips.
He did a great job, the voice over work is what infuses it with action hero vibes.
I think he did a fantastic job.
My dad's Morgan freeman and my uncles Donald Trump
Really? I think My Dad in fact was the one who did the voice over for all of these videos. Stop lying over the Internet 😂
Well, your dad did a damn nice job

I can not believe this is here!!!!!! I was there and patrick smith was the reason I would spend the next 13 years in Tae know do
Wow very cool 😮
So many of these legendary fighters have passed on. They left a great legacy.
This was right before Patrick Smith fought in UFC 1. In his intro video, he talked about winning the 93 Sabaki Challenge.
Wau, that guy with black jacket. Truly powerfull kicker. Seldom seen, even nowadays. 🥋. Osu.
Amazing fights -- Patrick Smith is a legend--- Sabaki -UFC - great competitor
Pat Smith was awesome!
Also a registered sex offender
@@ngkngk875yep so i heard 😢
Hey hey I have seen this before
It's classic...❤❤❤❤
That last match,...lol if it was 2023 kyokushin rules that guy in the black pants would be annihilated
True
Época de luta raiz! Hoje em dia é farofa
When tournaments were real and combat active. Today it is more hopping, bouncing and 'reserved;.
Even Karate Combat?
@@KeyserSoze23not pure karate. more like boxing with a few kicks
Good fights 👍🏽
Awesome
Meu pai estava ae
Imagine being 6'8", 287lbs, and a black belt in Enshin Karate...
Обалденный фул контакт.
Back then in the 90's when a karate competitor wearing a red sash does it mean it represents the red corner when there's a match stoppage.
Patrick Smith with his taekwondo defeated the kyokushin karate fighters
I had the magazine of him he came out with combat taekwondo. He was on the cover of taekwondo magazine. I wish I still had it. May it be wrote some money now
Love the fighters, don't agree with all the judges
Hoje em dia é "touch"
Kyokushin karate
Recieved second match.
1:59 Straight out of Tekki Shodan.
That's Tekki Nidan at our school, still very cool bunkai
@@Prefury Doh! You’re right, it is Nidan. Shows me up for trying to be smart. I never learn lol.
Better to watch than kyokushin matches.
Yes
Ted Roberts is my dad
Min 15:09???? A Cobra Kai member????!
2:59 is that Peter Graham?

I never understood banning hand strikes to the face, at least palm strikes should be allowed

@@dannyVulture I understand, I just think palm strikes would also have the desired effect without making it as silly
@@henryc7548Look how Nate Diaz Talk and you will understand it's because they doesn’t want CTE in the Tournaments.
Then there will not be any differences between kyokushin and muay thai

Nice but the music to loud and sucks
Poor, ridiculous, ugly sport. Movies are so liars.
