2008 World Sabaki Challenge

[patoplush]

these guys need to learn to keep their hands up to protect themselves from the high kicks. Where are the muay thai fighters or kick boxers? Looks great though, awesome full contact KARATE!!!!

[mfuji00001]

muay thai fighters can't punch face here & kick boxers can stay in the 80's XD

[cinchum]

Excellent fighting. Love the drumming music too.

[hardkicka]

I have a question ...the fighter at 5:00 wasnt he a k-1 fighter?

[HyFiveStudios]

? i wasn't there this year?

[MoshotheSpear]

Yeah. That was Pat Smith. He is fighting for the World Combat League the last time I heard of him

Master Ninomiya is amazing. His books are a great read. This video is awesome for studying sparring techniques. Thanks for posting!

7:15 OSS REAL JAP KARATE MAN

[CELTICWARRIOR247]

I love it.. Its an evolution of knockdown.

[nachegreene]

Any dumbass w. a little MMA training can throw punhes. Haymakers till the cows come home. Knocking someone out w. your feet takes a whole different level of skill. Reference the Mike Ninomiya 2004 sabaki championship (heavyweight). Witness real skill...

[drillpogodrill]

A striking tournament where no punches to the face are allowed. Asinine.

Ninomiya, the Japanese master, so freaking amazing! consider his age too! His demo is much better than all these lame demo these days

[markymark2069]

Badass except these lameass drums in the background

[anhkhoinguyen]

You Americans are so narrow minded. Always dissing on other peoples traditions, just cause it doesn't conform to what your used too. The drums sound bad ass btw. lol

[rsobrien]

No, the Enshin org just doesn't understand how to make a highlight reel

[cinchum]

The drums are what I like.

[RenshiKF]

[GJEChamberlain]
