  • pera ser karateka es bueno haciendo tiradas de judo, lo q no me explico es como llegaron 3

  • Al parecer los jueces pensaron que las otras exhibiciones fueron mejores al ser mas "fancy" y menos reales... Tambien hay que tener en cuenta la preferencia que hay en esos torneos.

  • Thanks!

    I guess the judges like flashy and fancy moves more than real techniques!

see all

  • issin1 I thing you posted in the wrong video, what you have seen is THE REAL DEAL, no the MacDojo Karate that is offered in the 50 states. As Joselo said, this is just a little basic demo, you have to see what this type of techniques can really do. With your comment I see you do not really know about martial arts are. "Sport Karate" this?? hahahahahahahah!

  • Haha, this was just a little demonstration. You should see what we can really do.

    By the way, why don't you show us how it's done? ;)

  • eso es muy sierto yo cuando competia en judo afuera de PR trataba de esconder que era de PR pq nos discriminan, yo cuando fuy a competir en un torneo panamericano un referi gringo me robo una pelea y te puedes imaginar lo molesto q estaba

  • That was a pretty good demo. A few moves wasted but very good.

  • Judging on video alone (no audio) I think you should have placed higher than the 1st place "winner" did. Your choreography was MUCH better and lasted far longer. Good job.

  • awesome video. I do isshinryu also. Nice takedowns i can see u like them

  • que guillao!!

    quedo brutal
