Who is the oppenemt of Tsukamoto that gets the high knee at 2:42

[hudoukyou]

@KadirD18 His name is Kuno Kiyohide.（２dan,弐段）

 He was the fifth place in the 38th all-Japan tournament. 押忍

[SamvelAyvazyan]

Tsukamoto is a great fighter with his own specific style!

Osu!!!

[ooogooman]

Fascinating. He gets away with *so* much shit because of the sheer, ferocious pressure he exerts with his leg techniques. They're all fantastic- front kicks, knees, roundhouses, side kicks, spin backs, domawashis- all thrown with excellent timing and all thrown with KO power. When I first saw him in the video that lead me to this one he looked like a sloppy, flashy fighter that got lucky, but now that I look carefully there's nothing lucky about it. Astounding.

[bryanteb]

what's that music in the background? I really love it~

[hudoukyou]

@bryanteb This song: Santa Esmeralda -

Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood.

[MrFRAER]

any defence is meaningless against his favorite kick. great man.

[Daygoro131]

Very good...Osu.

[jamenjoe]

[flexmastertim]

Osu

north sea was a nice camp!

Tsukamoto is a great guy!

[HearmenowMH]

I got training from him this weekend, at North Sea Camp,

His style is indeed Shinkyokushinkai,

Was an honor to have training of him ;D

[electrikcz]

can anyone tell me what style of karate this is? i do shotokan and in kumite we do nothing like this.

[mtagyfjch]

i practice shotokan too, i belive that, this stile is kyokushin

[KameSennin2]

Shinkyokushinkai !

[kolsyrade]

The style is kyokushin, and the organization is Shin-kyokushin.

Its "knockdown karate" rules.

Full contact kicks&knees to head, body and legs.

Full contact hand and elbow techniques below the neck (not to the head).

Noone cares how a technique looks if it knocks the opponent down or out.

Its not who hits first that is important, but who hits LAST!

[maeonmars]

@electrikcz

i do shotokan too

yeah... that's kyokushin or Oyama karate

[jrcortez18]

[nicotaboada]

very good song, norichika!!! you are one of the best karate ka of the history for ever!!!.........Osuuuu!!!

[georgekozlovsky]

Tsukamoto is the best!

[stoyashot]

Whats the kick at 0:18 its like a fake kicked follow by real kick. Never seen this type before. It looks good.

[adrikk1]

You fake a front kick and curve it towards the outside of the head. Its good for points but its hard to get any knockout power behind it. And its easy to block if you manage to see it coming. I do it often and follow up with a flying knee. Sometimes it works great, sometimes it failes awfully bad ^^

[BadBlueBoy213]

it's called "feint" :P

[geoxc]

yes. it's fake gedan mawashi followed by a head kick .....

it's very good 4 juniors where is touch contact at head ...... beut as well good for elite fighters....:D

[urkingod]

Lets go to IK 1 Matsui-ha

[Keyvan91]

I'd like to know the name of the song...

He rocks in karate.

[joyouslife4all]

[mamadaigo555]
