Glad to see karate coming back to actual fighting rather than point collecting. Good fight for both
it's still point based.
Yes it is but at least you don't have to worry about being punished for hitting to hard. I've been in plenty of karate tournaments and if you accidentally hit a bit too hard in the face or the head in general they gave you a fault instead of points
And by a bit too hard I mean more than just touching
@@mparmpakakis Not in JKA
Agree Sport Karate is slowly becaming Tae-kwon-do 2.0 competitors exaggerating movements to convice judges they had the point and I say that as an ancient competitor, I honestly got more and more disappointed with every tournement I fought in
This is a great demonstration of Shotokan strenghts:
Even though the cardio or stamina of the german was better, he was less precise. The Greek shotokan practiotioner was breathing heavily since the end of round 1, but going back and striking precise shots diffused the pressure.
The German could was breathing well, but he took much damage. Precise shots to the head.
I agree but while shotokan was more precise and landed the strikes that mattered the most, the kyokushin fighter had really good ability to take of the damage and continue pressing, if he was from a club that practised face punches aswell the result could have been different
Shake of* not take of
Since I discovered Karate Combat I dont even watch UFC anymore 😤🔥🙇
Absolutely brilliant performance by the Shotokan fighter, Stefanos. Controlled the distance the entire fight.
Point-style Karate like Shotokan gets a lot of flak for 'not looking like real fighting' but it really trains fighters to develop long maai (striking range), distance control, lightning-quick retreats, and evasion, and it really shows in this fight, in stark contrast to Maximillian's Kyokushin-style, which practices durability over evasion.
Sure, Kyokushin's conditioning is top-notch, and Max could probably take 10x more of those hits, but he was outpaced through the whole match because he just couldn't close the distance with his shorter attack range. His constant forward movement just made it way easy for Stefanos to measure distance accurately every time. He just needed to wait.
Fighting isn't a contest of durability. If you can't catch it, you can't hit it.
Yeah, great contest between two styles.
Totally agree with you. It show the many weakness of Kyokushin, and I say that as former Kyokushin practicioner. We should also remember that Maximilian is also trained in Muay Thai and Muay Boran. If he only trained Kyokushin things would be even worse for him.
Right on
I believe Shotokan can also be trained in a full contact manner; if you ask me.. that Shotokan guy gave a hell-of-a-barrage of a close distanced attack; closing in the gap and throwing punches… in my believe its good to learn full contact as well as point contact sparring as the usual Shotokan does.. it trains you for quick jabs/attack and retreat in response to opponent’s counter attack.. and repeat… both schools of Karate are amazing.. (Am a Judoka and Kyokushin Karateka looking to add Shotokan into my arsenal)
@@kellenparker4783 Go after a JKA Shotokan school, they're the best. I've seen them training and competing, absolutely awesome.
High level fight,
I am glad that they signed both of them.
it sends a good message to the up and coming fighters, aggression gets you signed.
And control gets you wins
Greece has some great karate athletes.
I agree
Happy to see a Kyokushin guy in here. First dude I've seen with a square-ish stance! That German guy was doing work with those leg kicks! I wish they'd allow kicks to the thigh though, no reason to allow calf kicks but not thigh kicks since calf kicks hurt so much more!!
Wait they dont allow thigh kicks?
Thats bs in kyoksuhin taking out other people's thighs is kinds luke a thing we are known for
Kinda like*
In the crowd:
Saruman, gogo dancers, the 3 Dracula's brides, Krilin and Mutenroshi, a few Hell Angels, Thunder from Big Trouble in little China, and a few shaolin monks.
I only miss Roger Rabbit.
I miiss Jessica Rabbit more 😉
Max, you did great! So proud of you and your stamina 😉!
Kyokushin is the best! So proud! Osu!
@@widlsalexis4319 sooo true! OSU!
It is great to see karate shining again. Great fight as well.
GREEK WARRIOR CONGRANTS BROTHER
It was a great idea this format of champshiop. I like it so much, because it´s nearest the real and traditional Karate.
Μπράβο ρε Στέφανε είσαι παιχταράς!!!
Excelente Combate. 👏
By far the most entertaining combat competition I've seen. Nice set of rules and nice ambiance. Maybe they could set that ring in a nice Japanese Beach for a change. This VR thing is nice but it does look "plastic".
Μπράβο ρε μάγκα
Great humorous content with them three
this was a epic fight
That was a beat down by Stepahnos. You guys are giving A for effort now? It's a classic situation when the other guy game plan works better than yours. Amazing abilityby Stephanos, being able to strike with accuracy and strength while backing up.
He simply destroyed the other guy, who is trained in 3 martial arts.
That's Entertainment ...brilliant fight.
Marshawn just be doing stuff🤣 how'd he end up here. Keep him around
That’s hilarious they have Lynch commentating 😂👍👍
Oss linda luta viva o karatê 💥🥋
Shit! I didn't have an idea that exist such a good Greek fighter in karate combat. And from my favourite style.. Reminds me the good old days. R.I.P. Sensei Nakayama.Lucky that you don't see today's shotokan.
Ideal karate full contract fight love to watch it
Παρα πολυ καλός.. Μπράβο τσακάλι.. 💪🇬🇷💪
Μπράβο τα παιδιά..
Vantagens do Kyokushin, lutadores desse estilo sempre andam pra frente(sem pulinhos) e aguentam muita porrada... Desvantagem, não protegem a cara, nessa luta isso fica evidente, o cara de branco tomou uns diretaços no rosto pelo vício que tem de não esperar um soco vindo nessa direção.
pois é, mas nada que não dê pra corrigir com o tempo, basta ficar mais acostumado com as novas regras pra perder o vício, mas é aquilo né, não é do dia pra noite que ele vai mudar um habito de vida.
Andar para frente com ou sem pulinhos não é vantagem em si. Aguentar porrada, sim, mas isso não é preciso ser lutador para saber.
@@junioravila853 Não se corrige, a não ser com MUITO tempo de treino em outras lutas. O problema está no Kyokushin. O alemão também tem treino de Muay Thai e Muay Boran, ou seja, deveria ter superado essas deficiências e não superou. Aliás, ninguém no Kyokushin supera. O problema é inerente ao estilo e à técnica de luta. Sei por experiência própria, pois já treinei o estilo.
@@Ricardo-mr3bg seria bom treinar ambos os estilos, pois ambos se complementam. No Kyokushin o cara ganha uma resistência tremenda, porém, perde em precisão e em velocidade. Agora um praticante de Shotokan tem precisão e velocidade, mas não aguenta apanhar. Fui campeão Baiano de Karatê uma vez, e o juiz querendo me desclassificar por que nas palavras dele" meu estilo era agressivo demais pra shiai Kumitê" isso eu com meus 16-17 anos. E ainda por cima, lutei com o Juiz que arbitrou minhas lutas, pois ele competiu pelo time dele pela noite, na competição de grupos, e ele ainda me disse que não precisava dessa agressividade toda por que " karatê é controle".
@@IKaRaTeCaI Entendo, mas até onde sei, isso do karate ser controle é parte da filosofia da modalidade, não?
Where can I find more people use the karate blitz I’ve been trying to study it and learn different variations of it but I can’t find it
This needs a Hulu contract!
Bravo stefane
🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷
Vejo uma certa inveja de outros estilos de artes marciais , leigos falando que é outra arte marcial menos karatê e o clã do karatê esportivo , com o karatê combat.
Se há inveja é porque está dando certo , está fazendo sucesso , ninguém tem inveja de fracasso .
Oss 💥👊🏻🥋
I'm ready for fight
Kyokoshin or shotokan seems very popular among karate combat it seems
Like how combat jiu jitsu is the grey area between sport bjj and mma KC is the grey area between Glory style KB and Sport Karate
This fight was really close??? Really???
I think he meant to end the German...
the idea of opposing karate styles is good, and the fights are very interesting, but the decorum and lack of seriousness of the comentators is really off-putting. I know this was intended to evoke 80s action movies and to make a good show, but in the times of mma the effect doesn't work in my opinion. I think the orginial setup while not perfect either worked better.
Ainda bem que é somente a sua opinião e não a verdade absoluta
I am pleasantly surprised to see how well shotokan can be when it's trained in an alive manner.
Also surprised that kyokushin fighters have been doing bad in Karate Combat. Are there really no successors to Andy Hug, Francisco Filho, or Bas Rutten?
Kyokushin is the best karate.
Μπραβο μαγκα !!!
Red would take the first round If knee is allowed in this fight. Anyway, great performance from both fighter.
Não acredito q o cara do kyokushin perdeu pro cara do shotokan dhuaaa😳😳tô surpreso
Feels like video game I want blood
Max is less skilled, but his cardio is amazing👍
stefanos got brains
Greek blood 🇬🇷🇬🇷
🇬🇷😎💪
Ever notice the Karate Chain punch is as bizzare as the Wing Chun except the stance and arm positioning is different
Where?... there are several types of Machine gun punching... also I've seen multiple punches to the chest in Olympic Karate too.
Karate chain punch? I think that is not a thing
I think it is just for making the opponent confused, the last punch is actually the ending one.
Finally a kyokushin guy
Bryan Callen is fantastic at commentating
👍
Έτσι πηδαμε τους γερμανους!!!
The Greeks Always Wins!!!!
I have realized it has there were many greek fighters.
Hope Max comes back i love his style
Shotokan vs Kyokushin
Why they don fight in orthodox boxing ring or in mma cage?
More Kyokushin.
MMA fight in disguise XD
O inveja
The german guy looks like Duait from walking dead
What a fight? The commentators are bias
This looks more like MMA...
People fighting for real with broad rules will aways look like MMA.
Karate has a name for almost any technique you'll find in MMA, and you can practice these all you want in training. The more of these are allowed, the more it'll look like MMA.
@@drownthedays Yes but looks very different than the most of the karate kumite I've seen. It's still something.
also the audience are paid actors??
It would appear so, since they're all in costumes and 75% of the first line are drop-dead-gorgeous women.
Is that Brian Callen lol?
I am from Greece so i suport greek athletes, but i live in a village called MATHES !!! So Maximiliam i suport you from now on, all the best !!!
Found your village - and now I realize I need holiday, what a nice place. I miss Greece. Hope the European "politicans" find their senses again, soon - otherwise: Kali nichta. Cheers, from Munich.
@@armynyus9123 thank you for your kind comment, i feel lucky for the place i live, little patience and everything will be better than before, from my heart all the best to you !
@@konstantinospapadakis6872 Efcharisto, same to you!
Yes, maybe you are right and things get better than before - looks like 2021 will be crucial for the countries of Europe...
this is fn weird...so the background is computer generated?
Covid.
@@psychedashell oh shit! I did not think of that!
@@codforlife We had cardboard cutouts around stadiums.
Sad to say but all fighters are low level unknown guys.
Уровень конечно не важный)
А в тайском им не простоять и двух раундов.
I really wanna see how these guys would do in a Max Muy Thai fight.
Coitado do Muay Thai
Shotokan, Goju Ryu, Shito Ryu, Wado Ryu = Non Contect
Kyokushin = Full Contect
Ever heard of Irikumi? It's the full contact championship of Goju-ryu, pretty much like Kudo. MMA in a gi.
I think the Olympics should adopt combat karate rules including the pit. It would make it far more enjoyable to watch, point fighting sucks.
And it looks like kick boxing...
Only worst...
Most Kickboxing styles are just full contact karate anyway.
K-1 is Seidokaikan karate.
Pan Am is Kenpo Karate
Dutch Kickboxing is Kyokushin Karate and Muay Thai
Parece mas não é
Hate to see that kicks to the upper leg are not allowed...I mean come on man
Shotokan osuuuu
Oss!
KARATE ????
Das ist aber ehr K1 !!!
Nada isso é sumô
this happen because stefanos knows that Germany suports turkey!!! long live Hellas!!!
Yo why is all the Asian people in the bamboo CAGE? Also where are all the Black people?
haha yeah dude! i think the audience are paid actors, the background is computer generated. They are trying to make it look like a martial arts movie!!
Блонда на затащил епта!
O Karate do Kyokushin não foi nada inteligente,dando espaço para o do Shotokan socar e chutar ,se tivesse ficando na pressão venceria sem problemas ,já que o Shotokan é um estilo que tem fobia de curta distância
Arielocao , a questão é que as regras mudam a dinâmica do combate. O treinamento do Kyokushin prepara para combates nas regras do Kyokushin. O Shotokan nas regras do Shotokan. Cegou no karate combat, que é algo relativamente novo, ambos ficam perdidos. Tem que adaptar o estilo.
I find all these theatrics rather annoying. Good fighting, though

🤣🤣🤣🤣🐭🐭🐭
слабый представитель киокушина...
"Aggression is the number one thing they score off"...
*Fighter evades the whole fight*
Hey what the...
Nice.. But these guys could not stand in the ring or the cage
we can't compare different things you know that right?it will be equally stupid if you said they can't fly...
They are not mma fighters, they are karate fighter competing on karate.
@@wesleymartins5970 So.. They sucks
Kyokushin guy is weak at 1. Face punch 2. Distance control. This is why Kyokushin, who values real fighting, has the irony of being weaker than traditional karate in real fighting.
Bro the Shotokan guy wouldn't have came straight from his dojo to this fight with no full-contact cross training prior LOL.. Or else he would get wiped from literally never experienced hitting or being hit.
This is boxing not karate
Você não entende nada de karatê
Buakaw beats both at same time.
In what .... fight combat rules......are you 6 or stupid......(just say you're 6).
@@nilomyki In a street fight with no rules
@@luislopes7367 go do your homework before i slap you to sleep
@@kanitsomarkos Fruit karate
Both beat you in seconds
The fights are disgusting, pure shotokan, it should be called shotokan kombat and not karate kombat, if they put another style like kyokushin they put a rookie kyokushin , invite kyokushin champions.
They do put a kudo daido juku guy in this competition
Yes you are right
It just shows how limited Kyokushin is. Neither there are "champions", they are in the same level and the kyokushin guy took a terrible beat.
An Olympic karate competitor won against kyokushin. This destroys all the false theories said by someone.🫢
