Guy with Shodan at 4:44 was a complete moron to a 7kyu student. This was a well-thought-out desire to injure a low-grade student. No respect whatsoever.
spinning back kick to the knee definitely a misfire by the yudansha. Kensetsu-geri are no joke, lucky his knee wasn't fully busted, it happens far easier than you might think
@@amberlight5527 Despite his "many years" training, that black guy has no feeling about what "budô" means, and this is why he cowardly striked like an asshole.
I know this video is several years old but mad respect. I just took my 1st kyu test a few weeks ago and the start is easy but the finish is difficult. By the end I could hardly stand and just wanted to fall over. Yet I remained and stood throwing everything I had until it the buzzer sounded. I hope this guy continued because he showed great determination and spirit. Osu!
I'm a Shinkyokushin karateka, but learned Kyokushin before changing branches, I'm proud to see people all over the world practice. We get better every chance we get. I just come back from a training session and enjoyed the shit out of it. I'm a green belt brown kyu and this is beautiful to watch. One day, he'll get to where I am.
dakentaijutsu2010 there are some differences. Take for example the first kata Taikyoko sono ichi. Instead of going straight to the punch, we have to lift our fist. In Kyokushin we don’t do that. Small differences easy to learn and get used to. But yes, same style and different organization.
I'm also a Kyokushin Karateka, in my Yellow Belt. This video is surely a good video to watch, reminds me how my seniors train me for Kumite like this. ❤
Yeah, been through it several times. These go on for hours and sometimes whole day... Done it myself.... Yeah it hurts.... Got to push through it...no quitting. Had another black belt broke my ribs. Smash my feet...yeah brutal ... then when I went through military it got very bloody and brutal.
That black guy's style differs significantly from the other students. Is it Kyokushin or does he have another background training, like Goju-Ryu or similar?
He definitely have another style background, looks more like a point karate stance like wado ryu/Goju-Ryu/Shotokan etc. Look at kyokushin black belts and competitors and you see that they don't have the same stance
I don’t mean to sound disrespectful. But other than how tough the practitioners are, I’m unimpressed by Kyokushin sparring. These guys are simply going toe-to-toe. They’re literally standing squarely in front of each other trading blows, so it's not surprising that 99% of the time the larger stronger fighter will just bulldoze over his opponent. Kyokushin allows leg kicks... but do they not learn how to check kicks? Literally every Kyokushin video I’ve seen they simply stand there absorbing the kick. It’s actually very impressive how they can just take the kicks, but my goodness no one can do that for too long. So for conditioning and toughness, Kyokushin is a 10/10. In fact, I’d say the majority of the time a Kyokushin fighter defeats someone of another style it seems the main deciding factor is the toughness of the Kyokushin fighter. But for skill and strategy, it’s basically just brawling with some karate kicks and body punches. So 2/10.
I don't know why, but this did seem a little weird....Like...maybe check out the leg injury before letting him continue? Umm...Are his ribs broken?? Hmm...just I dunno...it was weird.
awesome man awesome Fight hes geting that yellow belt from hard work that he had am yellow and i know how is hard to get that belt good on you man Much love!
yes he still trains in other disciplines now, but he always tells me what he learned form those years carries into all his other endeavors. I moved from LA to Boulder, so I was unable to teach him.
@@ShihanTomCallahan Ahh ok. Training in Kyokushin defintely carries over into your life. After all, it isn't a sport but a way of life. All the best to you and your students Shihan. OSU!!
The spinning heel kick to the back of the knee was dirty. Black belts should know better than that. The blue belt is obviously not a fighter and it shows. It is obvious he has no experience even sparring. He is winded when that black belt hits him in the back of the knee. Completsly unneccessary. The guy is so winded he just becomes everyone's punching bag. He isn't learning anything from this. I have zero respect for anyone that does this to non fighters and those with no real sparring experience.
Very good, the truth be told makes me see that all the dojos are very similar diverse people and diverse styles always in favor of getting the best of each one very good exam I hope mine is as intense as this one. OSS
I'm confused why this guy is testing to go from blue to yellow. Although I stopped training in Kyokushin some 20 years ago, doesn't the belt system still go: white, yellow, orange, green, blue, brown, and black? (I made it to blue back in the day). Did the system change since then? Or maybe the testee here forgot his belt and someone lend him his/hers for his exam?
Not any more unfortunately,. I moved to Boulder Colorado, and several of the other black belts ended up relocating as well. We shared the dojo with a Goju Ryu school but they closed everything down. OSU!
@ShihanTomCallahan awwww man that sucks i really e Want to get into Kyokushin i appreciate it thanks ill keep looking i live in san jose California myself. OSU
Firstly why are they wearing mits and shin guards at a grading? Secondly why would you kick him in the back of the knee and then in the throat? Finally fighting when you are so tired at the end of a grading takes everything you have and then some!! Well done to the young fella!
@@Bob-rv3kj becsue he is a BLUE belt we wear protective gear. Back Belt grading does not. He was kicked next to the knee and he was fine. Fighting at the end of the grading when you are exhausted is the exact point. ALL Kyokushin does this. It is to reach deep and fight when you are tired. The ultimate truth NEVER GIVE UP. This is the meaning of OSU!
@@ShihanTomCallahan thank you for the reply Shihan no disrespect was intended so I hope none was taken. I am currently a 5th Kyu and none of my grading or training involves protection so I found it interesting. I love the testing of oneself which Kyokushin demands. Thank you for the video OSU
Brown belt annoyed me. He used his size to gain the upper hand and avoid getting hit instead of focusing on technique to give yellow belt a valuable training / exam
@@MM-ou1kd You are a 8th dan shihan and you say something like this? Good luck in LA I am sure you have spoken with Shihans Taku and Fard. I find your comment quite rude from a Shihan with such a high rank
If he is not good enough to pass then he should go back train hard and do it again, why go so easy on him, he won't be a better karateka by get the belt that he dose not deserve.
He passed this test but failed his green belt. Its not ALL about fighting ...KATA , Kihon also involved. Yes it is about spirit , but your spirit is polished as you grow as a karate-ka. As his Sensei, I felt he needed to pass this test.
Who are you to judge? As a karateka, I'm offended you say that. We fight hard with a good attitude. You think Karate is only about fighting? It's about becoming better and stronger every day. It's about kata, kihon and every basic techniques we've learned. If his sensei judged he was ready to pass, it's his choice.
I come from Shotokan, I am sorry but I really didn't like this. Maybe because of different style but I see too much violence and not so much use of techniques.. Probably is just because our karate-do styles are too much different and i don't wanna say one is better than the other one.
The style is different. You just saw the kumite. There are also kata, kihon and every basic stuff we learn. Kyokushin and Shinkyokushin is full contact, but we thrive to become better and not use violence. We learn how to fight so that we know it hurts.
Andrea Russo then you shouldn't be here if you can't stomach Full contact Karate, because that's exactly what Kyokushin is, and you're just judging by looking at the Kumite side of this, Kyokushin also does Kata and Kihon!
One thing about Kyokushin, Enshin, Ashi and others. They never seem to have any real footwork or elusiveness. Just straight ahead plodding in most cases. I find it odd when I hear about Tai Sabaki but see more of just backing up in a straight line, and occasional circling. Tough arts no doubt, I guess if you're focus is competition its okay. I'm more self defense oriented.
ComplexBlackness Honestly, it's ironic you should say that, since elusiveness and footwork were mostly put in place for competition. And are avoided for self defense. The logic is that you don't want to risk falling. It's part of why old school full contact today guys used to beat a lot of karate guys in karate tournament. Because they had better movement, and it helped for competitions.
I wonder what you know about self defense at all. All encounters/brawls I witnessed in eastern Europe were devoid of any "elusive" footwork or whatever.
@@bojohannesen4352I think I made this comment before I knew what Kyokushin was and I was confused why they weren’t guarding/striking their faces. I think that’s what I was asking at least.
I kicked my enemy off his feet with a (idk how to write its name, but you say it like ,,mai geri"), i got close to him and boom. He was the worst idk why i fought him, and not my sensei.
so this is how karatekas advance belts? seems more like group bullying to me. You guys don't even care about his injuries. He should have been out since the moment he almost got his knee popped at 4:48. Also, it looks like he passed the exam just by "surviving". He didn't seem to do any kind of decent attacking nor defending.. Anyway, this karate sport feels hypocritical since you can kick the head but not punch it...that double standard confuses the mind and hinders your readiness to defend your head.. as you expected, I think MMA is the only way of learning to fight.. just mix as many martial arts as you need until you feel like you are truly expressing the potential of your body.
It's the budo samuari spirit that lives within kyokushin, it's a deep rooted culture and not for everyone but that's the way. It's not bullying, it's pushing yourself to your absolute limit, and then beyond, it's a true test mentally as much as physically. At the last rounds it's all about ''surviving'' and showing your will power to be able to keep standing up, that's kyokushin. I must admit tho to that these higher grades did some unnecessary stuff, too much head kicks, knock out techniques etc. It's not a bloody knock out tournament.. However, while MMA obviously does teach more aspect to fighitng, it's not really comparable to kyokushin. I am myself a kyokushin Brown belt but I've done some MMA as well, but knock down (kyokushin) sparring is by far the most exhausting/hard type of sparring in my opinion, and it really condition your mind and body, you will for sure know how to take a proper beating and still be able to stand up and deliver. And if you don't protect your head you will end up getting knees and kicks so you always gotta protect your head. And btw in my dojo we do sparr sometimes with punches to the head as well. So It's an excellent martial art in my opinion with both culture, philosophy and hard sparring.
No idea have you. They are testing his spirit. How much can he ensure and push through the pain. All the comment I see on here about oh they're hurting him too much stop being pussies. It's a full contact style of karate.
Tom Callahan this guy is truly trolling here, what does he really know? only a keyboard warrior that's behind the safety of a computer would say this, Kyokushin Karate is the bests, and I'm proud to be learning it, and I would dare this guy to go to your dojo and say that!
You're just trolling. Kyokushin is considered one of the best styles. I learned both Kyokushin and Shinkyokushin, and and I enjoy what I'm learning. Please, show a bit more respect to our practitioners all around the world.
It is not so easy to land a kick to the face when an opponent keeps the pressure on you. These guys can fight at all ranges but you can see here that as other karate styles they get inside. Second of all karate in general does contain grappling, some styles emphasize more than others and generally it is used to set up strikes however it is there. They don’t punch each other on the face on kumite but if they do happen to land a kick to the head it is game. Observe that there is no protective gear, I have seen instances as in other karate styles where there is not even gloves so clearly in order to practice with some degree of safety some compromises are necessary. Last, try sparring with one of these guys, they can hit and take it.
No punches to the face in Kyokushin? What's next? Soccer players not carrying the ball around? Marathon runners not riding bikes? Dear lord, what has the world come to.
always nice to see kyokushin karateka training and overcoming their limitations. everyone who goes through this training deserves respect. osu!

Do not punch to the face
Tom Callahan this guy is truly trolling here, what does he really know? only a keyboard warrior that's behind the safety of a computer would say this, Kyokushin Karate is the bests, and I'm proud to be learning it, and I would dare this guy to go to your dojo and say that!
pff keyboard warrior. try fighting a kyokushin black belt and see what happens
You're just trolling. Kyokushin is considered one of the best styles. I learned both Kyokushin and Shinkyokushin, and and I enjoy what I'm learning. Please, show a bit more respect to our practitioners all around the world.
It is not so easy to land a kick to the face when an opponent keeps the pressure on you. These guys can fight at all ranges but you can see here that as other karate styles they get inside. Second of all karate in general does contain grappling, some styles emphasize more than others and generally it is used to set up strikes however it is there. They don’t punch each other on the face on kumite but if they do happen to land a kick to the head it is game. Observe that there is no protective gear, I have seen instances as in other karate styles where there is not even gloves so clearly in order to practice with some degree of safety some compromises are necessary. Last, try sparring with one of these guys, they can hit and take it.
No punches to the face in Kyokushin? What's next? Soccer players not carrying the ball around? Marathon runners not riding bikes? Dear lord, what has the world come to.
