@karatekyokushinuk That's right. Generally I think that match with grappling and strikes allowed are more realistic to real combat which (hopefully) leads to better MA techniques as well as "all-roundedness".
don waste your time with fancy movie flying and spinning kicks...you will get hurt. Mae Geri straight into the diaphragm.....out for seconds! Even Mawashi geri is best for competition but the lack of power in a badly executd one will result in pain to the attempting party.
If you look on the channel karatekyokushinuk and watch the video spectacular knockout you'll see da costa's timing. setting up his opponent with two back-kicks to the body and then going to the head. enforcing the comments about timing, gambling and good enough
The most powerful kicks you can do are back or spinning kicks, but timing is essential. As has been stated, its not wise to turn your back on your opponent but if they are good enough then its worth the gamble. unfortunately for Frank Williams, his timing was bad and da costas defence too good.
those spinning back kicks are so shit. no responsible teacher will teach u to turn ur back to ur enemy on purpose. u'll be taken down almost every time
@DonMega187 If you do it effectively enough, you can trick the enemy into thinking you're going to jump kick him and end up kicking him when he doesn't expect it. Of course, you have to be really good at doing it for it to be successful. Also, it doesn't work if your enemy isn't afraid to get up close to you and put you in a hold
@DonMega187 And yet many MMA fighters use back kicks consistantly, repeatedly and effectively at the highest level. GSP vs Matt Hughes for example. If a wrestler and takedown specialist like Hughes can be caught by a back kick anyone can.
that kung fu guy was not well trained, because karate will never defeat kung fu, karate is shit

@rimidalvetarak Yes, Grabbing was allowed to the head a year or so prior to this fight, but has largely been banned from knockdown fighting today.

קראטה הכי חזק
כי קונג פו כל הזמן מראים את הגב
ובקראטה הפנים תמיד קדימה אז רואים כל צעד
קראטה זה שבירות קונג פו זה יפה רק לסרטים
