SPARRING TECHNIQUES I.

[cmdouglas1]

Point sparring is very useful if you know how to adapt it. There are several great point fighters on the NBL circuit that have done full contact also and beat the crap out of their opponent. Why? Because they know how to adapt their footwork and techniques to full contact. Matter of fact there really isn't to much to change except hit hard and omit some techniques. Instead of a back fist use a jab. Simple changes but adaptive point fighting is very effective in a real fight.

Besides all the other crap down there this is a very great technique exept I bring my knew up to block any kicks

@MSKSk8r1210

good way to make a game out of fight, less practical for real fighting, but can be fun.

@MSKSk8r1210 Well, on less experienced people and to avoid killing our partners, we use control anyway. Ditto on the point sparring being a failure. I hate that game.

They are training for point sparring, which is a game of speed only, to a bunch of white belts. It's a game of martial arts tag. It teaches speed and accuracy only, it's not fighting. However, if you think kajukenbo's a joke, you got another thing comin'.

Bullshit .... The best sport or martial arts for learning punches is Boxing ...bar none

[ThePresidentFreeman]

@taxiquoter Than why do I punch a LOT harder, faster, and more accurately than every boxer I know? They do PUSH the bag farther than me, but they rather to hit each other than for me to get a shot in on their gut. I'm not saying boxing is bad.

@ThePresidentFreeman You should be boxing and making MILLIONS OF DOLLARS! My guess is that you will wonder into a REAL boxing club and then be force fed a heaping helping of HUMILITY. What these people are doing is sport and that's perfectly fine but don't delude yourself into thinking that you can swap punches with a REAL boxer. It appears all of these people are having a good time, getting exercise, learning to respect themselves and possibly respect others... and that's great. Peace
