i wish more proper karate fighters would go professional in the ring k1 and mma it would do so much for giving karate a good name if karate became successful in those areas at least in America because now days in America no one respects karate any more because of all the fake crap karate ppl so they think karate does not work. such a shame.
@NakhitX FAKE KARATE PPL what u said is sport karate!!! and that kind of karate never works in k1.those guys were constantly knocked out. and there is traditional karate!and lyoto machida is traditional karateka.he said that sport karate is shit and that never works!!! but putting gloves on trad. karate guy, and he is not a karateka any more!!! so there is not so mush real karatekas in K1.Machida try him self out in UFC and now he is the best. I am training trad. karate for myself not for others
@NakhitX i have thought about this too.. but I practice Shotokan Karate-do and the thing about people who practice this art and understand the philosophical aspect of this art, they understand that it was developed to use in an life threatening situation... The main focus of this art is to not fight... Because people like Yahara Sensei or Kagawa sensei could kill someone... This is BUDO, not a sport... And even Machida in UFC has gone the route of sportsmanship over BUDO.
seems that in USA and other Countries, have no good Karate professors (only Nishiiama Sensei)
here in the South (Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil) we have a very good base in Karate and some other m arts, because after the WWII many Japan masters (direct students from Funakoshi and other styles masters) arrived here
we have very good Dojos, like the Mitsuo Inoue s sensei Samurai dojo
ive been around a very long time and seen some extreamly powerful fast and tough martial artist from every style and yahara is up there with them and yes i have seen lots of him fighting not just on here either
yeah put him in the cage with a decent vale tudo fighter, he could even wear his nice white gi. Although it will change colour from white to brown to red and end up shredded.
Hate to see what colour he would be if they brought him out of the cage, after the event.
a grappler will win a grapping match an a boxer a boxing match ect ect if yahara fought no rules id back him against any1 of ur presious mma steroid freaks fightings not about wat u wear or how big u r its about wats inside close ur eyes let some1 hit u on the chin then tell me wat type of martial art they do
All depends on fighters, not their techniques, you clever kiddo. Karate isn't only fighting style, it's also point of life, an ideology, but seems someone that smart as you won't notice that.
how about we see you doing some valetudo wannabeebee? are you all talk and no basis for your words? why the ghost account? i can post some moves that would bust your face if you want
if more karate dojo trained like this it wouldnt be as popular with kids and we would gain more respect thoughout the world of martial arts much of which has been lost by the watering down of our once fine system a fine example of karate as it should be
Muito irado! Esses treinamentos sao otimos, seria muito bom se o yahara desse um pulo aki no brasil pra treinar alguns karatecas. Vou me esforcar mais nos treinos, OSS!
i heard about this guy aparently he fell in his blackbelt grading since he was going to fast he has also wrote a thesus on rotation u can attack him from any angle and he will black by rotating. he kl
i heard about this guy aparently he fell in blackback grading because he was going at such a high speed he also had enough dignity to do red belt sparring to show that red belt wasn't a low grade i admire him deeply he also wrote a thesus on rotation and that he can defend him self at any angle by just rotating if u watch carefully he reflects that slightly

Yahara looks good when he demonstrates or teaches something using a willing uke.
Look at the competitions he has taken part in and his technique isnt so good and he uses stupid techniques that get him countered.
I havent seen Yahara hit anybody clean in any ippon competition.
So realy your statement holds no proof.
You just carry on and make conclusions based on what you believe and not on what can be seen.

What about Kanazawa?
Where did I mention him?
Kanazawa makes sense.
All that spinning about Yahara is doing wouldnt work.
He seems to have taken a theme and tries to sell it.
Fine but it wont work for real unless the attacker is garbage.

I only wish every karate dojo would work as hard as these people. There would be more respect for karate worldwide.
