some people tend to use the modern style of TKD, but Cook stays with the old schoold style, you can see the beauty of combination, aggressivity and speed.
for us professional in the 80's and 90's it was very normal flying like this, not sure what is happening now to TKD....it seems like much less acrobatic and dynamic
@@irokosalei5133 if you slow down the video, tho only possible way that kick could've scored to the head is if it CLIPPED the back of his head, because the travel of that kick went straight past the side of his head with no visible reaction to the other guy at all. So if some crescent kick can clip the head or if you are allowed to modify the kick so that it can go back towards the head, losing immense power to the kick, then this sport needs some serious change. Sport. If only I can get my hands on some other angle to prove this...
what’s the point in giving an extra point for a KO? they’re unable to fight...that’s what knock out means 😂😂😂. and if you didn’t already know, Spins have gotten extra points for a while....ignorant people smh
Great to see the more dynamic fighting style of Aaron Cook getting the reward, straight from the off, Cook shook him up with that head kick, his opponent was very wary after that, of the real possibility of being knocked out if Cook connected.
3:30 what the fck, this is how you know the point system is crooked, why did it register as a punch and why was Aaron’s spinning kick only registered one point?!?!?
I’m only a minute in so take my question with a grain of salt, but why aren’t they punching at all? I don’t really know the rules but in my opinion it would make more sense to throw a punch when they are in the clinch like they’ve gone in a few times.
Because they arent worth many points only a proper taekwondo technique punch will score Aaron Cook did score at least one punch in this match and punching to the head is not allowed
The Daedo PSS can register a valid strike but it can't differentiate between a normal kick and a kick which has a rotation of 180 or more. The default body strike value for a kick is 2 and the default head strike value is 3, the +2 technical points need to be scored by corner referees by pressing the appropriate trigger on their hand set. WT is trying out +2 for tech points instead of +1 at this event, and may implement it as a permanent rule change leading into Tokyo 2020 along with stuff like semi-finals and finals being 5 rounds as opposed to 2.
Chinese guy probably got over reliant on his height advantage, he wasn't prepared for cooks more dynamic style, and he didn't manage the distance with cook at all, which explains why he got nailed with so much punches
Great TKD fight. Blue fighter had excellent mobility and changed-up techniques and legs often. Sadly, though the red fighter was much taller, he had poor side kick flexibility, causing him to bend at the waist and not use his front leg much - mostly hoping for a crescent kick from clinch.
Si pensaría que uno de los motivos que me fui de selección fue por mis fanáticas, ya no quería el taekwondo.pero me pagaban bien al mes cuando era seleccionado.
@Arna I fought him in the nationals open in the UK. Even though without excuses.... I had just recovered form my ACL reconstruction, so i wasn't top shape. Aaron beat me, at the time the crappy 7 point superiority win point system that was implemented that year which i cannot recall back in 2008 or 2009. His an AWESOME PLAYER! very respected person, i still have a photo of him and me, and tell the everyone how he whooped my like a rag doll! He winded me with a dual bandal shagui... freaking accuracy and power i was not expecting tbh, i lasted 40 secs, wish i didn't have the stupid point system they implemented at the time and the stupid mega points. Has same style as i do, I do not like this new forced taekwondo style ITF hybrid.( no offence on ITF practitioners, i have major respect for them, as i have competed once in their style and have close friend who is in ITF)
oh its Aaron fight in a new rules of wtf aaron is the best fighter since taekwondo is old school, and now i love to see him in a new school of wtf. and he is good even more
That's sparing and it's has some rules. When learning tae kwon Do we also learn some self defense and it's effective. No hate but just want to let you know these. Please tae kwon Do is no acrobatic it can also be deadly
Vaughn Xavier Werry Look. I'm a 2nd Dan WTF and no, it's not effective, at all... Look towards hapkido if you want to know how to tell the difference. Modern sport tkd is pure and utter crap. It's a great exercise though, just don't rely on it in the real world.
If you’ve ever seen how Aaron fights you will know that this isn’t “classic vs modern”...Aaron knows that he’s gonna outclass the guy, that’s why he did all the fancy stuff. Aaron beat him because Aaron is an absolute beast, and the other guy wasn’t even comparable...not because old school is “better” than new school
Omg tkd is a joke these days lol. No doubles, no triples, no cut to back kick, no axe kicks, no whip kicks as red could have done numerous of times, no fakes and red could have thrown round kick to the close side to keep that dude spinning! Before anyone decide to comment, yes I did ustu and nationals a lot! Double off that leading leg crap will make you stop. This is garbage
Occasionally I see a cool kicking video and start thinking about taking up taekwondo again. Then, I see this mutilated form of a once great art and suddenly I remember why I quit...
I hate to break it to you, but competition isn’t about pretty fancy kicks. as well as Aaron does it, it’s not gonna happen. It’s funny how people say “oh I quit because the sport isn’t what it used to be”. you should be saying “I quit because I couldn’t keep up with the fighters who adapted”
@@raviduweerasinghe127 i hold a 3rd Dan rank in wtf taekwondo and I ran my own dojang for over ten years so I have a damn clue of what I'm talking about. When I started out, the fighting part was fast paced with a lot of spinning kicks, jumping kicks and knockouts. Then came the point deduction rule if you fell and the flashy kicks were just a memory. The thing that really killed taekwondo was the Olympics, people had too much to lose and suddenly everyone got cautious. Nowadays it's a bouncing starring contest while trying to hit an electronic fanny pack with your bit chagi. What you're talking about isn't adaption, well in a way it is according to the new rules, but to be fair is just a mutilated version of my once beloved art. I changed to MMA and Muay thai and not once did I have any regrets... And dude, stop liking your own comments, it's embarrassing...
@@Moodo76 I’m sick of toxic people like you shit talking the sport. with all due respect, I couldn’t care less that you’re a 3rd dan, if you can’t walk the walk then stop talking the talk.

I guarantee that I was more decorated in competition than you...at age 15. Ive trained with world renowned coach Juan Moreno, and many other decorated coaches, so I sure as hell know what I’m talking about. have some respect for the athletes that do what you can’t, and stop shit talking the sport you’re so invested in....
Yo Si me fui es porque ya tenia otra cosa pero Si Ai unos que siguen y siguen aunque ya no suban, siguen con su sueldo es cuando los critican,como no te a salido nada en la vida...es lo único que tienen el tkd cuando avía doctores militares es cuando más se te ponían al tu por tu era difícil,y los tratavas y empezaban que en la federal les metían la pistola en la boca y ablavan los delincuentes en la policía de caminos..tenía un amigo que no pegaba ni gritaba(respondía) tenía la misma garra..(y sueldo)a esos doctores militares que te desifravan en muchas cosas..
I’m 193 and I fight at 73kg. believe it or not, us tall people have a huge advantage when fighting in lower weight divisions. allows us to use our height ya know
He shouldn’t have lost the way he did. He should’ve covered his head and been more active with his front leg as that’s what a taller fighter needs to do. he should’ve kept cool on the outside in his kicking range

Cook is reviving TKD's beauty
COOK is only TKD of the old school
indeed it is, his old school style of TKD is incredible.
Nice comment. Cook's really did the old way here. I thought he was doing Hwarang Do at the bout. 😂😂
yeah
@@Krononauta true
Aaron is always give us a great show. I myself as a Taekwondoin learn a lot from him. Winning or losing, he's always fun to watch.
He's one of the best atm has been for a while. He fights beautifully even if it doesn't guarantee the win. Hence his move to the moldives I remember
Exactly ..Cook IS the best player of taekwondo ❤️
Aaron Cook changing the game for TKD..making it more exciting..
You can't be foreal taekwondo been on a down hill since the 2009 with these new rules there's nothing like 90s an 80s taekwondo
some people tend to use the modern style of TKD, but Cook stays with the old schoold style, you can see the beauty of combination, aggressivity and speed.
Try that then in rio...
Servet tazegul was the king in combination, see him now
for us professional in the 80's and 90's it was very normal flying like this, not sure what is happening now to TKD....it seems like much less acrobatic and dynamic
What a beautiful start by Aaron cook.
Hate to see those perfect back kick from Aaron didn't get registered.
Sung Park definitely, it was such a clear and net hit!!
I agree
Well this is made in China hahaha
minute?
@@spenkzu7931 0:33
The old school of taekwondo winss 💪
Is that referee.. 😂Mr. Bean😂😂
1:40 I dont think that chinese crescent kick to the head actually went anywhere near the head at all...
Wtf? Why that terrible kick did score?
it's because the sensors detect the kick, in this fight angle we don't see it.
the sole hit it
You have one of the worst angle for judging it...
@@irokosalei5133 if you slow down the video, tho only possible way that kick could've scored to the head is if it CLIPPED the back of his head, because the travel of that kick went straight past the side of his head with no visible reaction to the other guy at all.

5:35 Harry Potter easter egg
Yes
0:16 that how we play taekwondo, not fuckin touch kicks , THEY SHOULD GIVE BONUS POINT FOR ROUNDKICKS AND KOs . WELL PLAYED AARON
Actually they are giving additional points for spinning kicks. Aaron got 3 for the headkick and 2 additional points for the spin.
what’s the point in giving an extra point for a KO? they’re unable to fight...that’s what knock out means 😂😂😂. and if you didn’t already know, Spins have gotten extra points for a while....ignorant people smh
Incredible talent. Displayed by Cook. He is such a talent, but I think his only issue is staying consistent . Thank you for sharing.
A very good example of how to use turning round house (tornado) in sparring. Bravo
Aaron Cook i think is the one of the last hope for an old school exciting TKD. Hope he continues to inspire real TKD fans.
Great to see the more dynamic fighting style of Aaron Cook getting the reward, straight from the off, Cook shook him up with that head kick, his opponent was very wary after that, of the real possibility of being knocked out if Cook connected.
3:29 Punch???
In tkd wtf we dont use punch
Abdul Hadi tkd kick tutorials 😐 yeah we do... he didn’t punch tho and still got the point
Lol Sensor
@@sleepinglex1698 he didn't punch but he is hit the spining kick and if you watch carefully Aaron Cook is exited.

Tkd old-school by Aaron Cook 💙
how size does not define victory..A-Cook is an example in this sport of taekwondo ❤️
0:00 After Aron COOK's first 360'tornado kick, referee give to him plus 2point. what was 2point?
Round kick on the head is 5 points. Sensors only can register 3 for head points.

Lenny Ward seriously, this is taekwondo not boxing. Well,you can punch the body,only in the some condition.
Just one point if you punch, not worth it
Yayyyy.....awesome tkd. Thanks Cook!!!
What are those points beside the real points?
That Chinese orange chicken Frankenstein guy had no strategy/combinations except a lousy cut kick 👎. Cook was professional 👊👍
Batfan 559 shut up
Yellow your mom !
he'd knock u out though!
@@rickc16He pointed out what he lacked in the match tho
How did Aaron score 2 points after the first headshot? They registered a body shot but i can't see anything :O
Nghia Huynh the scoring changed already dude. jumping turning kicks to the head is 5pts now. you might have missed the updates?
Edmon Lacsa ohhh thanks I didn't know that. Plus the scoreboard registered "body" when they gave him 2 pts so I was confused. Thanks!

+2 technical points for jumping/turning kick.
Aaron is from old school taekwondo. So he is very dynamic fighter, and not competitor
How many countries has Aaron cook fought for now??
Is the Chinese athlete injured?
0:16
Chinese guy probably got over reliant on his height advantage, he wasn't prepared for cooks more dynamic style, and he didn't manage the distance with cook at all, which explains why he got nailed with so much punches
Il a déchiré un match sa commence à la première seconde jusqu'à a la fin 👍😉
After one second that Chinese player knew that he fucked up
3:29 punch ?
Ye, I don't understand too
waoow great combat 💪🏼💪🏼
thats how you play taekwondo. old school taekwondo is the best.

i miss the days when "trembling shock" to the hogu counted as a solid point. this "touch scoring" has taken away from the sport.

As a Chinese I feel ashamed of what this player is doing, gotta say this match looks gross
SGOD Nation just looks like he’s never fought anyone of Cooks level; also, Cook has been inconsistent at times, however, here he was “spot on”.
He shouldn’t have lost the way he did. He should’ve covered his head and been more active with his front leg as that’s what a taller fighter needs to do. he should’ve kept cool on the outside in his kicking range
Old school vs new....big difference
