Kyokushin might look simple like some people say here without any background about it. But let me tell you this, every punches and kicks here are powerful.
This is a deceptively powerful style, and even is debatably one of the strongest types of Karate in the world, and is a strong style period. The training these guys do is honestly kind of insane and easily respectable.
At first I thought it kinda looks like a glorified street fight, then I saw how powerful the strikes are. I want this kind of martial arts in the Olympics
Olympics might kill it over time (like what happened to boxing and tkd) or possibly instantly (like what happened to the karate event in the tokyo 2020)
When I was a professional boxer I met a guy who use to be a renowned Kyokushin practitioner from Korea. He once gave me a VERY small taste of what leg kicks feel like. I mean he gave me a VERY light kick, but it was enough to give me a good picture of how painful this style is... I remember I said "NOPE! WHY DO YOU DO THIS?!" I would rather eat 3 hooks to the head than take one of those leg kicks... It's not a pain that I am accustomed to nor do I want to get accustomed to. Not to say that Kyokushin is better than boxing or vice versa but... If there was a fight, anyone could win, but I guarantee you no boxer would look forward to it.
@@nomanmailk4232 and you? I can tell that the kicks are very powerful in the video and I'm someone who doesn't have any experience in martial arts, so it's not that he's weak but the kicks are just that powerful and I bet that if a professional does it in 40% of power it would still be enough to knock you out or at least make you fall down.
I trained BJJ with a 3rd degree BB instructor from Brasil, but I also trained Kyokushin before it, I used to train both in the same week when I was younger, and let me tell you, BJJ, is awesome on the ground, I know because I got into a fight and easily GnP the thug, but I also got knocked the wind out of me twice in Kyokushin and that what just the kumite, not the tournament part.
I remember our sensei used to bind our karate belt tie a knot so no one could hit and run away oh boy oooooh boy do I miss my good old kyukoshin days😂😂😂😂
In my kenpo class when I was a white belt I remember running away as an 8 year old. The sensei had enough and tied my belt against the opponent, I laugh it now, but man I was a little wuss lol.
You punch is only as strong as your base and your natural strength and technique of the punch. So it’s not really the art that delivers hard punch. But it makes sense focus on stamina. They gassed a lot when they didn’t knock the other out quickly
I love Karate Kyokushin, i have been training since i was 8 years old and right now i would consider myself average. I like being part of the martial arts community!
The history of this style is incredible. It was founded by Mas Oyama who lived and trained alone in the mountains for about two years and then came back to civilization and fought 100 men a day for two days straight. No one wanted to fight him by the third day. It is the truest expression of the karate spirit. Osu!
Started off in Kyokushin but then to US Oyama best thing I ever did in my life!Then onto to Ju Jitsu .Now at 63 I just hit the heavy bag and lift weights.But when i hit that heavy bag at the gym people are impressed.God bless Kyokushin Karate!
Tony Sioco Theyre very hard to take once you’re gassed out. Thats my problem, they kill once I gas out. I always take the pain and go on none the less even when I want to drop.
@@damienholland8103 forgive my unfamiliarity 😅😅. this question mark kick had also blocked the opponents kick before the whip motion into the head so i thought it was considered parry
So powerful. I really respect Kyokushin Karate. I loved watching the likes of Francisco Filho, Ewerton Teixeira, Judd Reid, Andy Hug, and Lechi Kurbanov. Congrats and respect to all fighters.
Kyokushin karate is one of amazing martial arts in Japan to even all people in around the world learn and practising to control mind, spirit and body to they not feel any pain, I will give respect to Japan for them strongest martial arts who I ever seen in TH-cam videos and maybe one day visit Japan and learn Kyokushin karate 🙏😉😊
I trained for three years, got to a blue belt. Its deceptively difficult, and fairly brutal. Black and blue, everywhere, pretty much continuously. Its standing toe to toe and trying to break the opponent with leg and body blows. Occasionally you get an opening for a kick to the head. Does it work on the street in a regular fight? Yes and no. Most people headhunt, never look down, and do not expect a very powerful low kick or body blow. Caught incorrectly, broken knees and busted ribs is what happens. If you only train Kyokushin you wont block the headshots, so training with other styles, or boxers is very valuable.
@@bearstriker1695 Pretty much what I said. I was training when MMA was just getting started. Yeah, I'm old. My instructor mixed all kinds of styles in and we trained/sparred with other schools. We had ring time with BJJ, traditional Kung Fu, boxers, kickboxers, Muay Thai. Cross trained daily with kickboxers/Muay Thai. The most terrifying thing is to face an experienced eskrima practitioner. The only thing you can do is run. Fast.
@@VideoclipsMETAL i dont think youre telling the truth here lol I know that endurance is a big thing in kyokushin but to say that they never block is misleading
MMA and kickboxing practitioner here. These guys are a freakin beasts. Damn, those low kicks hurts like hell. In terms of effectiveness, they are at the same level of muay thay warriors. I wouldn't take so easily a Kyokushin fighter.
Having as a young man back in the early 1970s for five years studied Tae Kwon Do to a senior level while in the RAF, unlike now we used no protective gear and full contact punches and kicks to the body but never to the head. Thus, I have great respect for Kyokushin in regard to it's strength, power and ability to harden their body to take strikes. Tae Kwon Do training had very positive benefits, the very strict discipline, dedication and practise greatly benefited me throughout my life but at the same time my very strict and tough South Korean TKD master who fought in the war, made us do exercises of which one was to make the ball of the foot stretch and hard to break wood. He did this by making us kneel on are knees with toes flat against the floor and our partner would force our shoulders down, very painful. As such my feet are deformed, my toes are permanently always pointed up, which has led to problems wearing shoes and constant pain in my feet now requiring painkillers. I believe that because he started to do this exercise as a child when his body was still changing, did not realize if done when reaching adult form it was not wise to do. Kyokushin Karate is the same as TKD but takes it far further in the expectation to alter the body to be able to take such powerful kicks but no way can you strengthen the human skull and the brain in side, plus considering the main point of martial arts is to defend your self against an attack, most likely by a yob, a bully or criminal who has not done Kyokushin, so why the need to spend years and pain toughening your muscles. Their founder Masutatsu Oyama was very much into showing off his physicality, i.e. fighting a bull, causing him very much to become effectively a sect leader. Thus, I believe it is a psychotic sport attracting men mainly, rarely do we ever see any women, because the power especially the backward spinning kicks to the head are on par with smashing a person in the head with a hammer. I simply in no way at all can comprehend why anyone for the purpose of a sport would want to do that or have it done to them. It may look spectacular and audiences even clap and cheer, I just wince at the damage being cause to the fighter's brain, which simple research will find that out of all 'fighting' sports Kyokushin has the greatest number of exponents suffering very bad brain damage, i.e. gibbering old men confined to wheelchair that have no idea who they are and recognize family members.
Kyokushin, the most painful karate. Those kicks might look light, but they are powerful and most untrained people would be on the floor from one or two leg kicks.
That's why you see some guys come out with crazy head kicks right out the gate. As the fight goes on repeated leg kicks will degrade your ability to pull off fancy moves, so sometimes it's best to try them right away while you're fresh and have the best chance of connecting.
@@tackytrooper When it was grading time for us, we used to jog for long distances and then go back to the dojo and do more burpees, push ups and other jumping exercises that I could count, and then when we are dead tired, the instructors will line us up and do round robin kumite against each other, then the last part will be to spar with the instructors, so basically we were all beaten to a pulp before actually sparring with the senseis, and then we get our next stripe. Pretty awesome when i remember it, I would like to do it all over again when I find a good dojo...
The matches are only 3 minutes each, with several 1 minute extensions if the initial round ends in a draw. The goal is to knockdown for 3 seconds or more, or KO your opponent to score a win. There is very little time for defensive techniques aside from tight, short blocks, parrys and sidestepping a strike. It sometimes doesn't look like much because these are single elimination matches, several matches a day over a 3 day event. So some of the matches shown here are fighters who have made it to the 2nd or 3rd day and already received a lot of damage on previous days in several matches. It's just as much a test of endurance, will and spirit as it is a test of technique and skill.
U dont even know what the style is boxing doesnt train their muscles as hard as kyukshin and these fighters look slow and kinda bad cuz they in the 3 round or just no enough energy left
Vericonic Viper Yh pretty sure mike Tyson would kill these bums any day And yes mate I did karate when I was 7-13 and it was so fun until I started doing boxing Boxing is a whole ten levels higher than any form of karate
Kyokushin is the hardest karate full contact style..... As you can see it's bear knuckle and no leg protection ..... The original kyokushin kai style is soften down over the years .....when i trained back in the 90's .... Knee's and elbow to the head was stil legal in tournaments
I watched the whole video, and damn, at first I thought they were doing weak punches and kicks and people were getting knocked out easily, but the more I watched it, damn I could tell all their kicks and punches were super powerful, it sucks you don't see this martial arts a lot. I only found it out because I watched a movie recap about the founder of this martial arts and what he did as a fighter going around Japan and fighting.
@@realamericannegro977 idk if you're gonna see this as your comment was some months ago. But do you mind me asking why? I'm interested in your opinion om the style.
@@bushidobrown3952 I had issue with jealous teachers. So they went out their ways to sabotage training. The style is clunky and will not save you in Street fights. It dulls fighting instinct due to no face contact, kicking to the face just ain't the same. Lots of ego involved for them to avoid punches to face. Lots of damaging things that simply dont help like taking turns punching each other in the stomach. Kyokushin dojos are typically demonic too due to the spirituality of "traditional" karate too and they dont allow you to build on what you already know. They will give you tons of flak if you male a move suit your body type and fighting style. Go to schools like Kyokushin if you like cults
@@thesmashbeyonder5127 No worries, I suggest you find a reputable Kyokushin Dojo that spars with intensity, be it with padding or not, you're going to like the conditioning and training, then train BJJ for ground game, and you can't go wrong, I trained both some years back and I totally enjoyed both, but life has to move on...
@@TH-cam_IS_WOKE thanks! I've definitely always wanted to learn BJJ. There is a kyokushin karate near my place and I've seen them spar, so I'll definitely check that out.
I’ve been training in kyokushin for one year, I’m only a orange belt with stripe and this looks very easy but damn it hurts a lot, I have to go through fighting green belts..OSU!
Each and every single one of the punches they throw are very poweful, and they launch them in a flurry of attacks, so you could have an idea of 1) how quickly they could demolish someone regular, and 2) how hard their bodies are to withstand so many hits of such a caliber.
I love how the whole “karate is the art of self defence and blocking” sentiment goes out the window and they just hit each other as hard as they can hoping the other guy can’t hit as hard.
Oh my what.. u dont think this is precise trained technique with a lot of backround knowledge witch is not easily achived... ? U right it seems on the first look just like brawling without concept.. but that really isnt the case
Its really multi-tasking trying to defend and counter while thinking of a strategy. Exact timing and awerness on the positions is really important from my experience.
You try to get a knock out, it’s important to focus on something were you punch like 1leg or liver. And the most easy knock out is head. Everything yo do inbetween (like punching in the belly) is to distract the fighter from your goal that you want to achieve.
From someone who has focussed on training in Muay Thai, I respect the skill these fighters have and the power they possess. However, not being allowed to punch or elbow the face is kind of ridiculous and unrealistic.
The sheer repeated punches to the head would get you broken hands plus your mom not beeing able to know who you are😊Massive respect to Muay Thai. Lately Kyokushin is present with gloves,these are old footage.Still shin to the head or knee in the head are totally legal and.Remember the have zero padding.Its a sport not a street fight.Our trainer use to beat us severly if he heard we fought in bars or clubs.He was trying to raise men not brawlers.Greetings and good days.
The big thing here that so many people go on about 'no punching to the face so it's crap'. I never met a kyokushin fighter that got paid unless they went into kickboxing, K1, MMA. Fighting with gloves to the face is totally different to fighting with no gloves to the face. Everyone I ever trained with had normal jobs. Bare knuckle fighters fight for money, Kyokushin fighters just fight to fight. So you are going to get your face caved in for no money then on monday morning go work your school teacher job? Plenty of kickboxers and boxers fight for no money but they wear gloves. Look at a face of a man after a bareknuckle fight, looks like he has been put through a meat grinder.
Are the drop kicks actually viable? Like clearly they work, but why? Seems like an unnecessarily risky play. If you miss, or they parry, then you’re now prone on the ground. I know less than nothing about martial arts, so it would be great if someone could explain!
The dude that gets hit with a CLEAN spinning back kick, appears unshaken, and then comes back and flurries against the guy is amazing (around 4:30 or so). Wow! Impressive!
What is the purpose of the move the fighter makes after knocking out the opponent. It looks like a gedan barai with open hand but a little higher? Thanks. Do you have to do all the time after KO? What is the name of the move?
After you get a knockout or ippon (which is when the opponent can’t get up in more then 3 seconds) the fighters use it to mark or confirm that a knockout or ippon has been scored
Así debió ser originalmente el karate 🥋 en sus inicios. Una disciplina creada para el combate cuerpo a cuerpo en tiempos extremadamente difíciles. Hecho para 😵💀
We don’t grapple in competition, but are tought grappling moves as well as chokes and submissions… how to get out of holds as well as off centering an enemies balance to gain control if they’re to grab you. Comp is completely different as it is still point based but demands a lot more physicality. Most of the judges are masters or Sensei
Basically I’m just stating that all though there’s a lot of contact and no focus on blocking the head for punches, we are still very much taught and have “BLOCK YOUR FACE” drilled into our heads.
Kyokushin might look simple like some people say here without any background about it. But let me tell you this, every punches and kicks here are powerful.
And those bastards are tough to take all those hits.
It doesnt look simple it looks painful lol
As a kyukshin fighter I can prove this took alot of hard work blood sweat and alot more
I can tell, they're literally going crazy in this video, ESPECIALLY with those kicks.
Alex Amaya footwork is useless in kyokushin!
This is a deceptively powerful style, and even is debatably one of the strongest types of Karate in the world, and is a strong style period. The training these guys do is honestly kind of insane and easily respectable.
Shotokan is a good Style also.
Kyokushin is like a Japanese variation of Muay Thai: you train and condition your body through painful training and then your body is hard as stone
The fact that these last over 30 seconds is insane.
Correction it is the strongest
Ain't a whole lot deceptive about it. But yup, all the respect to these folk.
At first I thought it kinda looks like a glorified street fight, then I saw how powerful the strikes are. I want this kind of martial arts in the Olympics
Olympics might kill it over time (like what happened to boxing and tkd) or possibly instantly (like what happened to the karate event in the tokyo 2020)
Nah olympics should never get there hands on it, they watered down styles like shot plan and wtf taekwondo
Nah, they eliminated Karate in the olympics for F-ING BREAKDANCE
Hell nawh, olympics will just fuck it up
The olympics would somehow ruin it.
This is what Olympic karate should look like. Not WKF karate which is nothing but a touching contest.
That's why it's not in the Olympics
And dont say too bad or violent I train kyukshin and that's a good reason people say it's too violent
YES! And that tip tap shit can easily be rigged like Olympic boxing is these days.
They should add face strikes. You can see how this style is being held back and mutated by this rule set.
Matchbox as long as they wear mma style gloves, I don’t mind. Seidokaikan uses boxing gloves.

Lyoto Machida made Shotokan Karate famous, He was UFC world champion with his Shotokan Karate base but Kyokushin is also a beautiful style.
I sparred a black belt kyokushin when i had only 1 year experience in muay thai respect to these guys fr
I see good fighter, brave and willing
After watching this I would like to practice this style of karate.
That’s sad do boxing instead
U dont even know what the style is boxing doesnt train their muscles as hard as kyukshin and these fighters look slow and kinda bad cuz they in the 3 round or just no enough energy left
@@hayduh6819 dont disrespect arts just of a vid u didnt even practice the sport
Vericonic Viper Yh pretty sure mike Tyson would kill these bums any day
And yes mate I did karate when I was 7-13 and it was so fun until I started doing boxing
Boxing is a whole ten levels higher than any form of karate

Real life Kazama Style karate 🔥🔥🔥
That question mark kick was incredible
So basically it's liverblow: the sport?
Kyokushin is the hardest karate full contact style..... As you can see it's bear knuckle and no leg protection ..... The original kyokushin kai style is soften down over the years .....when i trained back in the 90's .... Knee's and elbow to the head was stil legal in tournaments
I watched the whole video, and damn, at first I thought they were doing weak punches and kicks and people were getting knocked out easily, but the more I watched it, damn I could tell all their kicks and punches were super powerful, it sucks you don't see this martial arts a lot. I only found it out because I watched a movie recap about the founder of this martial arts and what he did as a fighter going around Japan and fighting.
Which movie was this?
well kickboxing had its roots from karate, boxing, and MT so it's definitely one of the striking martial arts powerhouses
I did kyokushin in my teens and competed in knockdown tournaments. I wish there was a dojo close to where I am now.
The most aggressive style of Karate 🥋
I wouldnt say the most aggressive but most definitely one of the worst.
@@realamericannegro977 well said 👌🏻
@@Chris24_ ????? Really? People usually come after me for dissing Kyokushin. I genuinely hate it on the same level Jin hate Mishma style Karate.
@@realamericannegro977 idk if you're gonna see this as your comment was some months ago. But do you mind me asking why? I'm interested in your opinion om the style.
@@bushidobrown3952 I had issue with jealous teachers. So they went out their ways to sabotage training. The style is clunky and will not save you in Street fights. It dulls fighting instinct due to no face contact, kicking to the face just ain't the same. Lots of ego involved for them to avoid punches to face. Lots of damaging things that simply dont help like taking turns punching each other in the stomach. Kyokushin dojos are typically demonic too due to the spirituality of "traditional" karate too and they dont allow you to build on what you already know. They will give you tons of flak if you male a move suit your body type and fighting style. Go to schools like Kyokushin if you like cults
Man jin kazama makes this fighting style look a lot cooler. Not dissing the fighting style and i know its a video game but still 😮💨
That brazilian kick is too perfect
I'd expect more karateka to be annoyed that 'Brazilian kick' gained prominence when it's just a chambered round kick
we are winning the king of iron fist tournament with this one 🗣🗣🗣❗❗❗
This is real karate. Kazama style 😆
It literally is, the motion capture is from kyokushin
This karate shoulda been in the Olympics
This style of kata is imo the most brutal. It may not look like it, but those punches and kicks are very strong!
kata is just the form, kumite is the real thing.
@@TH-cam_IS_WOKE Yeah you're right. Sorry bout that. I'm kinda new to karate.
@@thesmashbeyonder5127 No worries, I suggest you find a reputable Kyokushin Dojo that spars with intensity, be it with padding or not, you're going to like the conditioning and training, then train BJJ for ground game, and you can't go wrong, I trained both some years back and I totally enjoyed both, but life has to move on...
@@TH-cam_IS_WOKE thanks! I've definitely always wanted to learn BJJ. There is a kyokushin karate near my place and I've seen them spar, so I'll definitely check that out.
My dad trained kyokushin until i was born, obtaining 3rd dan. Now i train judo and compete. I think i want to train kyokushin one day too.
Judo in addition to kyokushin karate, is one deadly combination, in my opinion
@@rxj0765 it's called kudo
@@kek397 hahaha yes correct
@@kek397 Nope, it's called Kyodo...
I’ve been training in kyokushin for one year, I’m only a orange belt with stripe and this looks very easy but damn it hurts a lot, I have to go through fighting green belts..OSU!
How old were you when you started and what belt you are now?
Each and every single one of the punches they throw are very poweful, and they launch them in a flurry of attacks, so you could have an idea of 1) how quickly they could demolish someone regular, and 2) how hard their bodies are to withstand so many hits of such a caliber.
These warriors deserves more crowd
Kyokushin is what I currently train in, and love it, I think it's one of the styles that's almost on par with Muay thai (note that i said almost)! 👊🥋
TEKKEN in real life 😲
I love how the whole “karate is the art of self defence and blocking” sentiment goes out the window and they just hit each other as hard as they can hoping the other guy can’t hit as hard.
6:30 expert timing
Take it to the DoJo
Not to the streets.
Osu from Kamakura Holland.
And much blood was pissed that day
Very few ppl will understand this joke. The body shots are BRUTAL
Man,they kick and hit so cool that they show it as an easy thing.
Is there a science to this art? Do people go into a competition with strategy? because it just looks like an all-out brawl to my untrained eye.
Head punches arent allowed in this so it changes the dynamics
Oh my what.. u dont think this is precise trained technique with a lot of backround knowledge witch is not easily achived... ? U right it seems on the first look just like brawling without concept.. but that really isnt the case
Its really multi-tasking trying to defend and counter while thinking of a strategy. Exact timing and awerness on the positions is really important from my experience.
You try to get a knock out, it’s important to focus on something were you punch like 1leg or liver. And the most easy knock out is head. Everything yo do inbetween (like punching in the belly) is to distract the fighter from your goal that you want to achieve.
this totally wins in real life fights
Kyokushin is the toughest style you'll find
From someone who has focussed on training in Muay Thai, I respect the skill these fighters have and the power they possess. However, not being allowed to punch or elbow the face is kind of ridiculous and unrealistic.
The sheer repeated punches to the head would get you broken hands plus your mom not beeing able to know who you are😊Massive respect to Muay Thai.
Lately Kyokushin is present with gloves,these are old footage.Still shin to the head or knee in the head are totally legal and.Remember the have zero padding.Its a sport not a street fight.Our trainer use to beat us severly if he heard we fought in bars or clubs.He was trying to raise men not brawlers.Greetings and good days.
I know this shit is really powerful and stuff, but I can’t help but think of it as really slow.
I never want to be on the bad side of a kyokushin practitioner
Im a kickboxer but i use kyokushin style conditioning
Realmente, nunca crei que me terminarían gustando este tipo de cosas jaja
I undertand the no punching to the face rule but it would make the combat more realistic and defensive.
The big thing here that so many people go on about 'no punching to the face so it's crap'. I never met a kyokushin fighter that got paid unless they went into kickboxing, K1, MMA. Fighting with gloves to the face is totally different to fighting with no gloves to the face. Everyone I ever trained with had normal jobs. Bare knuckle fighters fight for money, Kyokushin fighters just fight to fight. So you are going to get your face caved in for no money then on monday morning go work your school teacher job? Plenty of kickboxers and boxers fight for no money but they wear gloves. Look at a face of a man after a bareknuckle fight, looks like he has been put through a meat grinder.
This is my childhood)
Love my Sensei and still remember names of all techniques in Japanese)

He got him good. Not with the kick, but with his toe nail. 👍😂
Not with his toe nail.. the impact of that kick litterally opened it up..
Ouch
Lmao!!
Smell it smell it smell it 🤨 now take it 🦶 thats foo youuu
Are the drop kicks actually viable? Like clearly they work, but why? Seems like an unnecessarily risky play. If you miss, or they parry, then you’re now prone on the ground.
I know less than nothing about martial arts, so it would be great if someone could explain!
Now this is bloody karate

and then you df1, 4 him at the wall.

Kyokushin is the best stand up martial art.
My friends: who’s you’re favorite WWE wrestler
Me:
why do they stand still in front of their opponents / dont keep enough distance?
0:44 bruh

Lmaoo
The dude that gets hit with a CLEAN spinning back kick, appears unshaken, and then comes back and flurries against the guy is amazing (around 4:30 or so). Wow! Impressive!
What is the purpose of the move the fighter makes after knocking out the opponent. It looks like a gedan barai with open hand but a little higher? Thanks. Do you have to do all the time after KO? What is the name of the move?
It is suppose to be the finishing blow when the opponent is on the ground. The fighters stop before executing it.
Yes that move is how you throw a punch to an opponent when your outside
After you get a knockout or ippon (which is when the opponent can’t get up in more then 3 seconds) the fighters use it to mark or confirm that a knockout or ippon has been scored
It's Zanshin, stating mental awareness as follow through after executing techniques; "Keep your mind focused."
Así debió ser originalmente el karate 🥋 en sus inicios. Una disciplina creada para el combate cuerpo a cuerpo en tiempos extremadamente difíciles. Hecho para 😵💀
What if you combine kyokushin and taekwondo just asking?
U become Tenshin
That aint happening 😂😂😂
Air strike it is
MMA
what aboout learning how to punch properly
I love all things martial arts and kyokushin is awesome
Kyokushin fight starts
liver:- Ahh shit here we go again
Whole body after getting hit on liver :- all right i am heading out of here
are you trying to be funny?
@@bradp.3192 yes, but he do spitting straight facts.
Kyokushin is truly amazing.
Reminds me of my middle school days when boys would let out their frustration by playing “body”, except kicking wasn’t allowed 👍
We don’t grapple in competition, but are tought grappling moves as well as chokes and submissions… how to get out of holds as well as off centering an enemies balance to gain control if they’re to grab you. Comp is completely different as it is still point based but demands a lot more physicality. Most of the judges are masters or Sensei
Basically I’m just stating that all though there’s a lot of contact and no focus on blocking the head for punches, we are still very much taught and have “BLOCK YOUR FACE” drilled into our heads.
JIN KAZAMA
Some of those kicks literally sound like wooden logs hitting each other which is terrifying.
At the very beginning of almost each combat, I could foresee who the winner would be. The difference in the levels of the competitors were so evident.
Most active refree I've ever seen in any game
0:30 guy almost got destroyed by that kick
My bad 0:34
These rounds go for more then just these 7 sec clips
04:22 what a fight
It's simply beautiful, I wanna learn it too
It seems so simple (in the movements,not simple to praticate)and powerful compared to other types of Karate. I want to learn it too
Kyokoshin leg = Axe
