I guess this is technically less dangerous than small slap fight, technically.
Yeah muscle can recover. Brain cells dont regenerate.
Technically? It just is in every aspect, I mean they'll recover and they only have better conditioned quads after recovery.
Slap fighters are dumber after every match they take, lol.
@@unknownentity8256 Sad thing is that's not even a joke. They'll start developing dementia by the age of 40 I guess.
It is no doubt.
@@thebluescaptain It is to me when they're consciously doing it.
This makes more sense than slapping your brain. I'd do this 😅
More sense ≠ Making sense at all (for me)
I want to be able to walk 😂😂
@@jestfullgremblim8002 you'll be able to walk as long as your quadricep doesn't detach 🧐
Yeah for a week or 2 after that you be fine@@jestfullgremblim8002
@@jestfullgremblim8002muscle can recover but brain cell dont regenerate
The only kick what I used with full force in sparring (and of course I also got many). It was part of the fun. Every other place could be dangerous, but a leg kick isn't very dangerous, but can be very painful.
Bro it's not even a competition with most legit karate practitioners. They eat those kicks for breakfast at every few dojo practices they attend on a weekly basis as a way of conditioning for pain tolerance. Just another day at the dojo
Yeah they literally drill Leg kicks, Body Punches. Nak Muays and Dutch Kickboxers just train Technique, Condition Shins and Spar.
You are right
Is no one noticing the guy that goes first has a huge advantage?
Of course
like power slapping
Much better and healthier than powerslap.
Totalmente!
Would rather watch this tbh
I don't like either of them but you are right lol, you would have to pay me a whole lot for me to even think about participating on one of these two tho haha 😂
@@jestfullgremblim8002 We kinda did that in goju training though sometimes.
But kyokushin is way harder they peobably do this everyday 😅
They should add russian roulette as sport too
Low kicks are deadly when executed correctly and strategically. Thanks for this upload!
this is nothing, back in my days we threw fireballs at each other. 🔥
😂
Kyokushin guy here. Confession time: I'm not a leg kicker. I'm always working on taking the leg shot and trading that for my own mawashi geri, yoko geri or mae geri to their core. Broke a guy's ribs trading shots unfairly that way. I walked away with sore legs, while he had to go to the hospital!
While he's not a Kyokushin practitioner, a good candidate for this sort of thing would be Gabriel Varga.
I remember Gabriel Vargas actually won against Lerdsila which is crazy, that guy is so slippery and has amazing fight I.Q as well
Did you aim a certain way to maximally stress the ribs/under the ribs? The few times I’ve taken a full power kick to the ribs, I felt them flexing but holding up much better than muscle. That was with a shinguard spreading the load, though.
Liver shots and face shots are enders but low kick suppose to be faster and more ez and open the oportunity to land higher kicks after condition. Also the faints with brazilian kick or kakato
@@flowrepins6663 yep! The logic behind them is solid. I'm just not very good at them and would rather use a different strike
Gabriel varga has a bad understanding of karate
This looks fun! Kinda reminds me of Bodyshots in the school yard.
Kyokushin and Muay Thai should dominate. MMA, Kickboxing, Taekwondo and other styles don't do the bone conditioning that is as important as strength and technique in a competition like this
not true, any good old school karate does conditioning. Kuoshukin is essentially a sport, where you can get hurt. Their fighting is centered around their rules.
@@Zeusspupp "any good old school karate does conditioning"
That's true but most of them also teach you to avoid damage by blocking or avoiding attacks, not just wade through it like you're a living statue.
There's no blocking and avoiding all though, eventually something will hit you, so better have good conditioning.@@TheMisterGuy
@@TheMisterGuy like said, they do plenty of conditioning in more old school karate. Also karate blocks can also be used as devastating strikes, the condition there bones to the point the could break their opponents arm with a powerful block.
@@TheMisterGuy I agree, they also teach you to get out of the way, use evasive footwork, not play rockem sockem robots
this is so much better than
slap fighting
As long as they dont injure the knees 🤪🤪
Kyokushin's low kicks are DEADLY. it's a shame only a few people realize its strength
Their way of low kick differs and makes a massive differerence, how they dig their shin inwards instead of swinging it around and hit with the fatter part of the shin.
This was really cool. It's vaguely similar to English shin kicking. I love seeing these new unique combat sports crop up. I recently saw a Russian hockey fighting promotion called 'IceFights' that I'm sure you'd love
Ive reached out to icefights before. I will reach out to them again. Thanks for the reminder!
It's interesting that a Korean founded Kyokushinkai.
Mas Oyama while yes Korean in decent, tried as hard as he could by changing his name and taking a Japanese wife. and wanted to become Japanese on record . Also, Japan brought karate to Korea. Yes Korean modified it with high flying, kicks , said to remove soldiers on horseback , Mass Oyama, trained in Japan. The only records Korea had was some drawings in caves that are most likely of old school (visiting Japanese style karate.) If you look at the cave drawings, the technique is a little off. We’ve all seen them of the ( high blocks) Of course I’m not stating any of this as matter fact because much of this unfortunately is passed down word-of-mouth some of it can be proven, but I will admit this was passed down to me as someone who practices both tae known do and kyokushin ..
Koreans always seen to improve things!
@@upgrade1015 False info.he never did try hard to become japanese. in an interview he explicitly said having korean nationality was a big hurdle in japan, especially discrimination and for travelling as he often went overseas, the japanese customs always gave him tough time. he directly translated korean word BAEDAL into Japanese which is MASUTATSU not to forget his korean roots, it was mandatory to change your name in japan to be naturalized. also he had 2 wives, 1 japanese and 1 korean. all his sons are registered koreans.
Yup; guy was Zainichi Korean. Iirc he was also good friends with Masahiko Kimura, the famed judoka that beat Hélio Gracie and because of that, was honored by having the submission hold named after him.
Sensei Oyama are loved for Japanese people he have millions of students in Japan in His Prime.
I feel like the gi also adds a specific layer of protection to the leg especially over fight shorts. It's not much but it's amazing how a thin layer of cloth can affect the feel of an impact. Also it seems really unfair for whoever goes second. Cool idea though.
good point! should standardize the clothing imho
Pausing when FCB asks who we're betting on. My answer is Kyokushin guy, because their training and overall style is usually just tanking hits instead of blocking or avoiding. Therefore, this rule set is taking away a major thing the other guy uses. To me it's like a "punches only" match between TKD and boxing.
Kyokushin is not all about taking hard strikes, it also requires a lot of defense and footwork, and i say this beacuse i train it and apply deffensive techniques.
@@mysticramen4104 "Kyokushin is not all about taking hard strikes"
I understand, but compare it to how they spar in almost any other Karate style. Even Shotokan. I'm not trying to present Kyokushin guys as idiots who just take hits, but they put much more emphasis on being able to walk through attacks than other Karate styles.
@@TheMisterGuy well, yes, we put a lot more emphasis on body absorption, but you can't just be taking full contact bare knuckle hits indefinitely (althought you can take them a lot better than head hits), and you must defend yourself, when you see kyokushin's punching exchange, they are not actually just trading hard blows, they are cutting the trajectory of the punch with their own punches, and although blocks are a also an effective tool, this is a lot faster for hurting your oponent while defending from his punches, which will grant you the w in a kyokushin fight. And about head movement, yes, there isn't a lot of it in kyokushin's sports combat due to the no face punching rule, although it would need to be modified if it was applied in any combat ruleset with kicking allowed, you can't use boxing head movement for something like muay thai for example.
Humanity always find new and exciting ways of stupid. Quick note on Kyokushin guys: It's remarkable how they seem to kick diagonally *downwards* and let the leg for some time, digging in, just like the manner of an old school tsuki.
K1 is actually Kyokushin but wd boxing elements
What is not knowing history in general hahaha to begin with, k1 descends from karate hahaha you don't even know the history of your sport, the less you are going to understand the styles of karate😂😂😂
I had a stroke reading this @@vladimirzapata4128
@@vladimirzapata4128correct. even in America and Europe the base for kickboxing will start with karate and not Muay Thai or Boxing. The techniques from those styles are needed to succeed but, karate is the base so when someone says Karate vs Kickboxing it is baffling to hear.
4:04 I'm A Boxer who trains sparingly in Kickboxing and Muay Thai. In some styles of Kickboxing, for example Dutch Style Kickboxing”, we're trained to kick downward in a diagonal angle just above the Knee. That's literally our profession. So, I'm literally not sure what you mean when you imply that another fighter is more professional by kicking a different way. 😉No hard feelings though. Love the channel.
Kick downwards and close to the knee are different though
As someone who got kicked by my mma coach and is still in pain after 2 weeks, my respect for these guys is off the charts. Kyokushin is no joke damn
the second kyokushin guy has longer legs too, he seems to be struggling to aim for the thigh. A lot of his hits are kinda just with the upper back of his shinbone, which I assume would have less power than if would've hit with the lower shin part of his shin.
Also thanks for covering Kyokushin as of late. Alexander Volkov who fought this Saturday against Sergei is also a Kyokushin Brown belt.
I'm blackbelt in shotokan karate and a few months back I started training kyokushin karate... I tought shotokan experience would help but boy... my first training session conditioning for low kicks was the most humbling experience of my life 😂😂 it feels like getting hit by a baseball bat, and they take it like its nothing.
Wow!
Oyama had made the real study of winning karate.
Ernesto hoost, rob kaman , tawanchai known for their devastating low kicks
this is honestly insane
Happy to see that this championship is getting recognition. This was done 60 km away from where I live.
By the way, the first one wasn't condescending, but more like "Come on, man, you can do it".
Glad to know it was an encouraging gesture!
Anyone who hasn't taken a lowkick without shinguard full force by someone who has trained for a long time cannot truly appreciate how painful this competition is.
as much as you can legit criticize Kyokushin for not dealing with head strikes, any other target zone is usually very well conditioned. This is just another tuesday in many dojos
Dope!
Proper Thai boxers would own this
Don't spoil it for the karateka bros, let them dream😂
The issue is that most times Muay Thai fighters and MMA guys are taught to attack musculature and skeletal parts of the leg and Karatekas are taught to attack the nervous system of the body. Very hard to do in real time combat but, for a competition like this its a put over.
Kyokushin low kicks are great. I love how they are just like the hapkido roundhouse.
In what way is it dirty to kick in a more effective way? If the rules allow kicks just above the knee, then youre a fool not to target that spot.
You want to kick right above the knee. That is where the max pain comes in, and it's best for damage as well.
You wanna kick downwards if you can rotate your hip enough. Just more gravity and leverage.
Kyokushin low kicks target the space just above the knee. Their low kick is also thrown almost like a thrusting action.
Rodtangs invite must’ve been lost in the post😂
It looks like by pushing the knee out while absorbing the kick, the Kyokushinkai are actually choking off their opponent's power, as well, since it appears to prevent them from following through the kick
I'm wincing😮. Yea. It only takes one of those in the right spot. Lol. This is Crazzzzzy. (When they're done, they're done. No faking it. No powering through😅)
Very good
Congrats to the MMA guy,, amazing resolve and spirit, especially since he got probably hit on the knee or near it 2x ... THe Kukushkin guys know how to absorb too
This has much more sense than the cte contest sponsored by dana white
*how to not be able to train for 1-2 weeks*
It even hurts just holding the pads for some guys, this is crazy.
how do they determine who goes first? that seems to be such a huge advantage both in this and power-slap?
This is a lot more funner than watching UFC slapping contests. Put this up instead. High school kids will totally get into this.
Wonder if it would be better or worse if the contest was decided with inside low kicks instead, maybe the chance for low blows makes that option not as feasible.
Would love to see a crazy native Muay Thai fighter take part in this
Vs Karate
Would be epic
As dumb as some ppl may call it, this is WAY more entertaining than power slap.
Imagine this with the promotion and spectacle and presentation that power slap has
can anyone explain what the kyokushin guys do differently on low kicks compared to muay thai?
Geez... These guys are nuts!!! That hurts like hell. Light kick on the correct angle and position will send people on knees. They're doing it full force again and again???
No style has a chance of beating kyokushin karate in a pure low kick championship, their body conditioning (blow absorption) is the best of all martial arts. Muay thai is tough, and their body conditioning is amazing too, but kyokushin just takes it to a whole other level.
😂
Hahaha yeah, just watch how Buakaw destroyed Kohiruimaki 's legs in K-1 😂😂😂
It obvious that the taller guys can create a more devastating kicks. I believe that there are also different weights here
Lol, legit used to play this game in high school.
Was it popular in your school?
Do Divekicker next, please
Mark the space to kick with a marker.
The first one, maybe they're friends.
Kyokushin guy was timing the bracing perfectly against the lowkicks and if done correctly like he did and correct timing it works similar to a parry against straight punches, reduces the effectiveness to almost nothing + he was targeting the knee which is dirty af, like is he trying to end his career or something?
If you're on the red mark you win. It's all about the colour of the floor.
Dude... You think everything! I never imagined this type of competition existed.😂 Can u find a fight until knockout using rubber chickens?
This is the first championship, done 2 weekends ago. That this thing is going outside Spain it is strange for me, lol.
Show
They should do a hit to abs competition too.
That would be an interesting one too!
Imagine prime Thiago Alves in this
Let franscisco and hajime kazumi join the competition and it will be godly😂
I can feel the pain from the video
Unlike muai Thai guys kyokushin guys don’t check low kicks, they just embrace them 😂
Be interesting to a Sholing as they tran to with stand a lot
We need bite championship.
Now imagine a prime Judd Reid kicking you 😢
I'd be okay with that being in my obituary. "Cause of death: Judd Reid landed a fat one on his legs" 😂
Melvin Manhoeff should be world champion at this.
Gi pants gave him an advantage
It seems to me that whoever goes first has an enormous advantage, your power is probably going to be diminished even after one of these
Very true!
You are supposed to kick just above the knee.
There are tendons, which are much weaker than the muscle.
not a good test since you can load up and do a telegraphed kick
The crowd is outa conttol!
body punch only
I'm wincing.
K1 guy got the best kicks
I can tell you if you brought a legitimate Muay Thai fighter from Thailand, he would dominate this game.
Kyokushin guys always have huge thighs, so that probably adds to their durability at least.
Both Kyokushin guys were kicking way too close to the knee the entire time. First guy was kicking just barely above it, second guy was almost kicking directly at the knee the entire time. I mean, I don't know what the rules are for this stuff, but that conduct seems pretty dirty.
Not good, but still way better than slap fighting!
wince......
Way less dangerous than slap fighting.
I do wonder why the karate guys can wear pants though. That probably helps them right?
Yeah, uniform wise, the pants probably need to stay consistent. If they want to represent, they can wear gis, but no gi pants.
His hand in his head was more out of respect and empathy . I didn't see it as condescending
It's funny how the fighters still have their guards up 😂
I would be doing the same, it's hard to do without it if you have always trained like that, which is a good thing, i guess
Until I see a rule that says the kyokushin guys kick was illegal why are you perpetuating a narrative that it’s dirty? This isn’t YOUR ruleset, clearly the officials are okay with it
K1 does a foot flick up that I’m not a fan of . It depends on your angle of bone , I prefer the up and down chop over the triangle meat on the quad. Kyokushin - Osu!
Those Kyokushin guys wear kicking WAY to close on the knee!!!!!!!!!! SHould have gotting point taken or warnings for kicking to close on the knee!!
Kyokushin work on really turning the hip over so you're kicking across and not upward. Also on bring the knee past your target before starting to straighten the leg for the kick.
Very silly
STOP TRADING SHOTS WITH KYOKUSHIN GUYS! THEY DONT CARE!
This is just asking for an injury.
Fr
It's really not
Nope, this is safer than anything else that's full contact. In Kyokushin training you just do that sometimes as a conditioning exercise. It kinda sucks, but it's also kinda fun.
Muaythai and mma in this video is sad. Why they kicking up? kicking up from low is for inner thigh. Muay boran and letwhei the old traditional one teach to kick downward like a chopping tree. Must be modern kick leg kicking technique. Keyukushin use the whole body downward and that is how you low kick thigh.
For almost no money…just go walk in to traffic.
Useless.
I hope everyone is not injured.
Oh, congrats. You've created the second-dumbest combat sport.
This is as dumb as power slap.
No brain damage though. Actually no damage at all, just pain.
Why would you even try to go to a low kick competition against a Kyokushin dude? They’ll chop your leg off man. These guys are no joke when it’s about kicks.
There are mma guys that try to outbox boxers all the time. Then lose. It’s overconfidence. Or arrogance. Take your pick
The K1 style is very circular.
Хорошие лоу. До встречи с тайцами🤣
