Very disappointing fight. I'm sure that both these guys have had much harder sparring sessions in their dojos. They should have both being disqualified at the end of round 1, for lack of fighting spirit.
@letsparty2015 You realise that they're two top fighters...The reason it's not so 'hard' is because they both know what each other's capable of...It's not a show of power - it's hard for them to find open points within each others guard...Kyokushin is more then beating the shit out of each other - it's playing each others weakness + strengths ;)...It's more about skill then brute force ;).
Kazumi was robbed. That guy is amazing, no matter what kind of insane punishment he just sucks it up and keeps fighting. That's the true spirit Kyokushin tries to teach. Always push forward, and when you're out of energy, push a bit more.
puhhleeez, almost fell asleep, people you know they have mixed martial arts out there ufc, pride and such, these guys wouldnt last 10 seconds with real fighters, in its day this was nice, but really its more like modern day tia chi !!!
@kevinsmithism alright bitch, no need to get rude. hows the bjj going, do you like sitting on top of other men, or is it the thrill of being on the bottom that keeps u going back to the bjj club. kyokushin is real fighting, bare knuckle and the training is way tougher than mma. so keep your trap shut u bjj fag.
the training is tougher, but the effectiveness in street fighting.. I doubt it's as effective, as the other guy said, as mma (tho mma is a mix of styles), or muay thai, bjj. Don't get me wrong, I like karate and all its styles, but when it comes to effectiveness - I'll always go to other styles if I need it for protect myself in he street.
@kevinsmithism 'there ufc, pride and such, these guys wouldnt last 10 seconds with real fighters' do you mean like GSP, Gerard Gordeau, Bas Rutten, Andrews Nakahara, Katsinori Kikuno, Ryo Chonnin etc etc etc?
All the fighters I mentioned credit there standup to this style. Not only do they last 10 seconds but many of them become champions. People watch a couple of UFCs and suddenly they think they have a clue. Its sad
nope, because when you kick, you hit with either the ball or the instep. In both cases, the absorbing surface is relatively big, and, in case of the ball, soft.
When you punch, you hit with your knuckles, which means you have an impact on an extremely small (and considering konditioned kyokushin players pretty hard) surface. The risk to break bones or do any other severe damage is therefore much higher.
Honestly, what a ridiculous fight. A fight of callus, strength and breath. But no strategy, few punches, kicking blind... where is the maai, the go no sen, sen no sen of karate? Ok, I know that guys can break my face but that is a boring and ignorant fight!!
Great fight between two Kyokushin legends. These two fought for the championship in '95 and Hajime won. Can't seem to find the video of that fight on you tube.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
You know, one of the greatest Kyokushin fighters ever, Emil Kostov from Bulgaria, who is 4 times EU champion, once world champion (80kg, 2001) has admited to our MMA coach (who is 3x world SAMBO champion), he admited when asked that our own MMA style is the best possible fighting style ever, especially for any street combat.Now, a Kyokushin world champion...to say this...this is no compliment, no world class fighter lies...And besides, with their ridicules rules about the head, Kyokushin sucks!
Well, there are plenty of medical centres for retards and n00bs, so if YOU think ur someone, ur terribly wrong.The video Emil Kostov world karate champion is available at Metacafe.How unusual, the WHOLE world has heard of an OFFICIAL champion at that time, and only you haven`t...Hmmm...I wonder if u ever did participate in a REAL fight, even with tons of protectors roflmao!
LOL, you dont get it do you? You are proving yourself as the twat you are by behaving like a keyboard warrior. But sure, go ahead, keep threatning people on youtube. You seem to have a little self asteem issues so just keep going i dont mind. :)
I meaant I never denied anyone`s success in any way-I can`t last long against either Kostov or sort of, since I am no world champion @ karate.Furthermore, I would fight any man who`s trained in it for even 5 years.And being self-confident doesn`t make u any warrior-neither keyboard or real warrior.
fuck you, in K-1 Francisco Filho proved that Kyokushin is efective! although I think kick boxing is better because the fighters are permitted to hit in the head.
But most KB fighters practice in semi-contact and are thus not used to hitting full force. those that practice full-contact are still limited by the KB rules they are used too
What weak losers...Turtling...I have always been saying that Karate sux, it is just a poser sport.Muay Thai, and any kind of wrestling/grappling, that`s it!
Keep you expectations both of yourself and Kyokushinkai realistic,learning will be hard and the benefits of certain aspects of the training may not be immediately self evident and certain techniques will not seem immediately applicable,its at this point that many new guys become frustrated either with themselves or the style its self and quit,as in all things but especially the martial arts patience really is a virtue,but young men often don't have it as they want to 'kick ass' straight away .
ummm... I'm not an expert myself but it seemed that they were not constantly beating the crap out of each other from the start because both fighters were playing safe to measure their opponent first because both of them were about the same size and perhaps almost as strong as each other.
A perceptive comment,it was also the culmination of a long tournament lasting several days both of them fighting numerous matches and presumably sustaining a fair amount of damage in the process these factors go a long way to explaining the fighters tactics,if you want to see knockouts the 1st day is always the one to attend the 2nd and 3rd days become more of a mental and physical grind compeling but certainly less spectacular than the 1st .
Yeah, I can't say more than I agree with you :). You seem to know much about karate. I want to start doing karate myself, perhaps you can tell me some useful tips perhaps? I will be really thankful ^^.
You seem to have a genuine interest in the martial arts and a realistic attitude about them,so my advice would be to compile a short list of dojo's in your area and give one(or more of them)a go,when starting training my only practical advice would be both a matter of common sense and common courtesy and thats as far as possible to keep your ears and eyes open and your mouth shut,if you work hard your actions will speak for you .
Because unfortunately, while kyokushin still teaches the typical karate blocks in it's curriculum, most other styles have taken it at it's face value and not analyzed the technique properly. The way it's typically taught (even in kyokushin) is far too slow, it's all great in a dojo while you have a tempered environment but a punch usually comes faster then you thinking what block to execute. Obviously though through sparring, kyokushin learn that a much more effective way is to parry or guard.
Of course they don't punch to the head...they don't wear gloves. Can you imagine the damage if they did. Kyokushin fighters are tough, I have sparred against many. Other styles like Muay Thai might do head punches but they also wear gloves...and I'm not biased, I do Muay Thai
sorry if my comments offended anyone, I didn't intend disrespect towards the fighters. I admire the men competing in the karate tournament, & only meant the term full contact includes complete range of targets. This is hard contact fighting indeed, but full contact includes groin, eyes, throat and anywhere else you choose to strike. I appreciate that it is not to injure anyone severely, but perhaps it should include gloves to allow head punches as they are the most common attack in any fight.
I would have to disagree with one of your points its much harder to defend say a jab than a kick,in my Kyokushin fighting days i could probably count the times ive been caught with by a head kick i was probably caught more times in a single round of Muay Thai,its not necessarily a problem as long as we realise that any set of rules is a trade of between realism and safety and will inevitably cause imperfections i think the Kyokushin way is a good comprimise just as long as we are aware of it .
what the fuck are you talking about? you think van damme movies was real? van damme was a shotokan fighter, he knows only semi-contact and to act. he did ballet also, you think ballet would work against kyokushin?
what the fuck are you talking about? the only things ive said here are 'fuck you' and 'fair enough fair enough' almost 2 months ago - learn to read before you try and insult somebody you fucking prick.
there was this other fight him and filho, where filho placed an awesome flying spinning kick on kazumi's head. I think it was earlier then 1999, since filho had more hair.
kyokushin is the strongest karate. and one style is not better then the other . it just matters on the skill of the fighter (; i fight kyokushin for 4 life! -bushido
A rather good fight. It was pretty slow as compared to what I see but you could tell that they were extreamly skilled and they did step up the speed a lot.
I love kyokushin but I do want to do away with the no head punch rule. they are ways to do it but everyone has their own oppinions. I'm glad I have watched this. It has inspired me in many ways so thanks for posting it. OSU!
It takes 7-8 same day fights to reach the final, fighters are extremly damaged and tired by then. The beggining is always slow and it picks up at the end of the fight - fighters have to save some energy for the end.
The most durable wins. That's why it's so slow and boring. OK, but that's sports. What about real fighting? Most streetfights don't last over one minute. You don't need durability there. You need speed and precision. One good hit to the face - KO! Oh, but you don't have that, do you? Maybe takedowns? No? Throws, sweeps? No? Oh well, you can always ASK the mugger to play by the Kyokushin rules. ;]
Tournament fighting is a small part of the Kyokushin system,it includes sweeps,takedowns and a huge variety of strikes to the face it certainly has its faults just the same as any style but as your critique doesnt touch on any of them so its not at all valid.
"Tournament fighting is a small part of the Kyokushin system" - I don't think that's true. Kyokushin focuses on kumite and that's why the faults are being "practiced" over and over again. But that's just my opinion, I like all styles of Karate anyway.
Have you been training Kyokushin in the UK? How often did you have kata? I'm asking because where I trained all we did was kumite and bag punching. No kata at all.
Ive trained mostly in the UK but ive trained in Japan and the Netherlands as well,the proportion of time spent on each of the three K's(Kumite,Kihon and Kata)varied from dojo to dojo rather than country to country,i depends on the character of the teacher and the make up of the dojo in question .
Yep, depends who is teaching, to be complete u must train Kihon, Kata's and Kumite, Kihon well performaced train ur spirit, doing always in each class a looots of seiken's and mawashi's, like 100 for example of the mae gueri's and mawashi gueri's and 30 punchs of the rest and 30 kicks of the rest as well, Kihon is when u start do show ur spirit and u reflect that in the Kumite and in the Katas. (:
o and another thing we do not hit the face cuz you can hit full power without any protección, at first it could be done in kyokushin matches but it allways ended up beeing a blood bath.
basically cuz of the nose, it's much easier to Ok with a punch but the direct hits to the nose implied to much blood. a Kick to the face just leaves you with a complexion xD. So for the Kyokushins that still want to puch in the face K1 was the choise
kyokushin tournaments sports? sport is when the fight is stoped every time someone gets hit like in shotokan or some of the TKD tournaments, kyokushin just cares about the marcial artist by forbiding just genitals bad kicks to the knee and the face punch. Kyokushin is not an olimpic sport if I can recall well...
Nor is Shotokan. But I was comapring Kyokushin to K-1 anyway. Also Shotokan, Shorin-ryu and Goju-ryu have traditional non-sports schools but Kyokushin was always sports-oriented.
kicks to the face are less frequent than punches (obviously), so 1 hit could knock someone out, where it could take many punches to knock someone out, this could end up in them losing their teeth, black eyes, cut faces, (a lot more frequently than kickboxing matches because of the fact we dont wear gloves)
Shotokan karate more explosive and fast ??? Well, it seems u know nothing about kyokushinkai...I council you to watch Midori Kenji's videos or Andy Hug, guy.
sorry, but i cant believe a shotokan player is saying this, i did shotokan when i was younger, the fights stop every point, they rely on one shot hits,and the fact is unless you get in a full contact fight, the chances are you would not handle a real fight,
no he is not criticising the art , but the sparring system , ot the tournament system , that alot of difference , like if i say , in real kyokushin u learn to punch in the face , but in a tournament , u are not allowed to unch in the face.
sorry to disagree, but shotokan is a light contact competition where you seek to hit, that why it's faster. Kyokushin seeks to knock out. A point in hotokan is a hit, a point in kyokushin is to suffer your oponent to the limit of the OK.
Its amazing how they could hold back so much until the very end, man, i rushed right in at my last two tournaments and lost all strength by the end, guess i should have patience at the start
my dear, that's a sport, with rules and with athletes, that have no intention of getting their face broken for free...nevertheless some of them like Filho, Andy Hug, Feitosa and many others, have gone further to K-1 or MMA professional competitions, which maybe suit better with the type of competitions you and your punk friends like...
angepunk1,U r not a streetfighter nor an expert and u r calling me a dumbass?!Do not talk on the subject since u r no expert!Those guys r heavyweights...
Btw,2 months a 250 lbs called me names on the street and felt tough to step out with me he got one of those "slow" mae-geris which threw him back 5 or 6 feet.I imagine it was your brither,u waste of skin...
Americano burro...falou q o japonês acertou mais chutes...tsc...tsc...para juiz conta muito como o atleta assimila o golpe e se continua andando para frente logo após de receber o ataque... De que adianta vc ter um golpe forte se não assimilar um simples chute??? No Karate se aprende isso tb... não é só atacar... aff cada nego burro!!! Tinha q ser americano mesmo...
wow!! The one time I.K.O screws one of their own "home boys". That's a first....Kazumi was more aggressive and landed more leg kicks than Filho. Another classical rigged match.
Why are the kyokushin-signs on their gis covered with tape?

Since you can kick towards the head the "fullcontackt" part is true.
Whille saying that Fullcontact should mean that you can hit everwhere, it is still in a turnament, and therefore it needs rules.
And as I said, protecting against a good kicker is just as hard as protecting from punches, so they learn to protect the head as well.
And people still practise Kyokushin in MMA, so I suppose there's the place where you can see them go all out.

I would have to disagree with one of your points its much harder to defend say a jab than a kick,in my Kyokushin fighting days i could probably count the times ive been caught with by a head kick i was probably caught more times in a single round of Muay Thai,its not necessarily a problem as long as we realise that any set of rules is a trade of between realism and safety and will inevitably cause imperfections i think the Kyokushin way is a good comprimise just as long as we are aware of it .

when they put gloves and punch to the head it is called kickboxing.

what the fuck are you talking about? you think van damme movies was real? van damme was a shotokan fighter, he knows only semi-contact and to act. he did ballet also, you think ballet would work against kyokushin?
bah.

Actually Andy hug :P he was supposed to win back then, but they gave it to the japanese

there was this other fight him and filho, where filho placed an awesome flying spinning kick on kazumi's head. I think it was earlier then 1999, since filho had more hair.

kyokushin is the strongest karate. and one style is not better then the other . it just matters on the skill of the fighter (; i fight kyokushin for 4 life! -bushido

A rather good fight. It was pretty slow as compared to what I see but you could tell that they were extreamly skilled and they did step up the speed a lot.
I love kyokushin but I do want to do away with the no head punch rule. they are ways to do it but everyone has their own oppinions. I'm glad I have watched this. It has inspired me in many ways so thanks for posting it. OSU!

It takes 7-8 same day fights to reach the final, fighters are extremly damaged and tired by then. The beggining is always slow and it picks up at the end of the fight - fighters have to save some energy for the end.

So basically, the most durable fighter wins.
Hotora86 4 years ago
At the very end if fighters are of similar level, you're right - the most durable wins.
daynews 4 years ago
The most durable wins. That's why it's so slow and boring. OK, but that's sports. What about real fighting? Most streetfights don't last over one minute. You don't need durability there. You need speed and precision. One good hit to the face - KO! Oh, but you don't have that, do you? Maybe takedowns? No? Throws, sweeps? No? Oh well, you can always ASK the mugger to play by the Kyokushin rules. ;]
Hotora86 4 years ago
Tournament fighting is a small part of the Kyokushin system,it includes sweeps,takedowns and a huge variety of strikes to the face it certainly has its faults just the same as any style but as your critique doesnt touch on any of them so its not at all valid.
iroscoe 4 years ago
"Tournament fighting is a small part of the Kyokushin system" - I don't think that's true. Kyokushin focuses on kumite and that's why the faults are being "practiced" over and over again. But that's just my opinion, I like all styles of Karate anyway.
Hotora86 4 years ago
Ive been doing Kyokushinkai for 18 years so i think i have a fair of idea of what is entailed in training in this style .
iroscoe 4 years ago
Have you been training Kyokushin in the UK? How often did you have kata? I'm asking because where I trained all we did was kumite and bag punching. No kata at all.
Hotora86 4 years ago
Ive trained mostly in the UK but ive trained in Japan and the Netherlands as well,the proportion of time spent on each of the three K's(Kumite,Kihon and Kata)varied from dojo to dojo rather than country to country,i depends on the character of the teacher and the make up of the dojo in question .
iroscoe 4 years ago
Yep, depends who is teaching, to be complete u must train Kihon, Kata's and Kumite, Kihon well performaced train ur spirit, doing always in each class a looots of seiken's and mawashi's, like 100 for example of the mae gueri's and mawashi gueri's and 30 punchs of the rest and 30 kicks of the rest as well, Kihon is when u start do show ur spirit and u reflect that in the Kumite and in the Katas.

Boy, that was boring. I'm sorry but Shotokan kumite im much more explosive and fast. And they can hit jodan.
Hotora86 4 years ago
o and another thing we do not hit the face cuz you can hit full power without any protección, at first it could be done in kyokushin matches but it allways ended up beeing a blood bath.
goldwyrm 4 years ago
But isn't it easier to KO a guy by punching to the face? I don't think a kick to jodan is much safer so why the absurd rules?
Hotora86 4 years ago
basically cuz of the nose, it's much easier to Ok with a punch but the direct hits to the nose implied to much blood. a Kick to the face just leaves you with a complexion xD. So for the Kyokushins that still want to puch in the face K1 was the choise
goldwyrm 4 years ago
This comment has received too many negative votes show
A complexion, great. :P Well, no wonder K-1 is considered to be "real fighting" while KK tournaments are "sports fighting".
Hotora86 4 years ago
kyokushin tournaments sports? sport is when the fight is stoped every time someone gets hit like in shotokan or some of the TKD tournaments, kyokushin just cares about the marcial artist by forbiding just genitals bad kicks to the knee and the face punch. Kyokushin is not an olimpic sport if I can recall well...
goldwyrm 4 years ago
Nor is Shotokan. But I was comapring Kyokushin to K-1 anyway. Also Shotokan, Shorin-ryu and Goju-ryu have traditional non-sports schools but Kyokushin was always sports-oriented.
Hotora86 4 years ago
that is totally wrong, kyokushin was not sports orientated, that aspect of it came later on, but it was designed for reality
ironwarrior77 4 years ago
kicks to the face are less frequent than punches (obviously), so 1 hit could knock someone out, where it could take many punches to knock someone out, this could end up in them losing their teeth, black eyes, cut faces, (a lot more frequently than kickboxing matches because of the fact we dont wear gloves)

u are absolutely right ironwarrior , i wonder why the thumps down on your comments.

Shotokan karate more explosive and fast ??? Well, it seems u know nothing about kyokushinkai...I council you to watch Midori Kenji's videos or Andy Hug, guy.
katsukyousuke 4 years ago
I suggest you watch this fight again and tell me if it was "explosive and fast". ;]
Andy Hug - yeah, he's great but I'm talking about the average tournament fight. Kyokushin relies on heavy body shots too much.
Hotora86 4 years ago
sorry, but i cant believe a shotokan player is saying this, i did shotokan when i was younger, the fights stop every point, they rely on one shot hits,and the fact is unless you get in a full contact fight, the chances are you would not handle a real fight,
ironwarrior77 4 years ago 3
Sorry, but I can't believe a former Shotokan player is saying this. Why would you bash the art you practiced?
Hotora86 4 years ago
no he is not criticising the art , but the sparring system , ot the tournament system , that alot of difference , like if i say , in real kyokushin u learn to punch in the face , but in a tournament , u are not allowed to unch in the face.
ahmednabil 4 years ago
Great.... they hit how much...maybe 2 or 3 times in only 10 minutes... it is outrageous...
Kickboxingdentist 4 years ago
sorry to disagree, but shotokan is a light contact competition where you seek to hit, that why it's faster. Kyokushin seeks to knock out. A point in hotokan is a hit, a point in kyokushin is to suffer your oponent to the limit of the OK.

my dear, that's a sport, with rules and with athletes, that have no intention of getting their face broken for free...nevertheless some of them like Filho, Andy Hug, Feitosa and many others, have gone further to K-1 or MMA professional competitions, which maybe suit better with the type of competitions you and your punk friends like...
