  • @gonorrhoeheliumgirl You wouldn't be, if you were participating yourself. Trust me, if done with full concentration and complete focus, this wears you out pretty fast. Sometimes I don't even get this much tired when I do free bloody sparring with grapplers. I'm serious.

  • These men are not only great martial artists, but they have great integrity , humble hearts and strong character. True martial artists. I have had the privilege of training under their leadership.

  • The is no disrespect. Jyu Ipon or Jiu KUmiote must be REAL. not fancy and fakes blows like that. Disrespect its to think this is Karate. Its not. A guy like that can not defend himself.

  • @tokaidosan I think what you don't understand is that this is a training exercise with rules of engagememt where each side gets one attack to a pre determined area and with a particular attack and, as others have pointed out, it is not free sparring.

    The attacks are real though and if you notice at the 1:02 mark one of the men gets hit with a good body shot as can be heard by the thump sound of it landing.

  • @tokaidosan If you mean you actually have to make light contact - that's actually destructive for real encounters since once you get used to the feeling of pulling punches, you'll do that in real life, no matter how much you try not to do so.

  • @tokaidosan this is a demonstration of jiyu ippon, not free sparring, so naturally it will look different. Additionally, after facing both of these men in gates of heaven practice, I can promise you they have good oizuki. What is a shame is your disrespect and low mentality. I hope you keep training. Karate is good for everyone.

  • thise two guys are very very strong, they will be an exemple for young generation.

    it represents a lot of year of training, I'm frensh praticer and I say "Respect" to this two mans!
