[elaire26]

Like it... good stuff...

Love the bow out of respect at the end...

I miss true respect in modern MMA...

[pg86]

Mikazuki geri...Its beautiful aint it!!?

[maofas]

@pg86 It really wasn't a crescent kick, it was a front kick, a for-damage Karate version, not the push/teep type people are used to seeing in mma. The announcer just doesn't know what he's looking at.

That being said he has used crescent successfully other times.

[Srizzle]

Kikuno is the Crescent Kick KING BITCHES!!!!!!!!!!!

[LamentofChaos]

KYOKUSHIN FTW

[TheDiamond123123]

BIG KABOOSH!!!!!

I love this commentator

[jeremyshambles]

great videos, thanks kindly for your efforts in sharing these videos, cheers from san diego

[rainriders]

In traditional Karate, it's true they tell you to kick in the stomach and solar plexus.

Full-contact Karate people say if you're looking for a clean KO shot to the body, always kick in the liver.

Kikuno is obviously a full contact Karate player, not a traditional theorist.

[rainriders]

Why is it so hard to admit that Kikuno aimed at liver and kicked right in there?

[wmpyr]

This is not a liver kick. It's Traditional Karate kick called the Mikazuki Geri, & targets the solar plexus not the liver.

[TheDiamond123123]

@wmpyr

true but it hit liver.. so the commentator just said and there's the liver kick, big kaboosh... not literally meaningit's called "liver kick" but in that moment it was all the same.... it's easyer to say liver kick, than "he got hit to the liver with mikazuki geri" don't ya think so

[wmpyr]

@TheDiamond123123 if you look closely, the kick lands on either the center solar plexus region or actually towards the spleen. Now I do realize that the liver is huge and doubles around the solar plexus region. The original technique aims for the solar plexus, I'm sure if they got the liver they are not going to complain. I don't think it's that difficult to call it the crescent moon kick or Mikazuki Geri ;-)

[TheDiamond123123]

@wmpyr

dude everyone knows that... for FUCK SAKE!! that's not the point.

it's like saying; "and there comes the jaw breaker".... then you are probably going to respond; "It's not a jaw breaker, it's point is to stunn the opponent"

dude that's all there is to it... he called it as "and the liver kick!" it's easyer and faster to say to the action phase, you don't get any smart points for knowing what it rly is, you're a dumb ass if you don't know the real name

[styleangel2009]

great :) the big kabush

[insulin5002000]

菊野さんおめでとうございます!!

強かったです!!

まなぶ

[kenseisato1989]

kikuno is soo respectful,

and of course i love the commentater

[IamAppreciated]

Kikuno just needs to work on his ground game a little bit more and he could be a top LW. His Karate and Judo keep his striking, clinch, and TDs solid.

[CreativeThings1]

@IamAppreciated No he doesnt need to work on guard thats the way we fight in knockdown beacuse it's really comfy and best position of hands to attack and defend OSU

[billthebutcher2]

Kikuno is tough. I love The Voice, he's awesome.

[EvanJagu]

what a liver kick......got to close the distance like Eddie or you got whacked like that!

[cameneroz28]

awesome combo

[buttonsoupz]

liver kick, right hand, big kabosh! its all over!

lmao gotta love the voice.

thanks for the upload!!!

[Toxeh]

[ufc910]
