@weakfrontkick hmm....so what were the results of your division? who got first, second and third? was it USATaekwondo or AAU??? I am wondering what your name is...i guess that would be pretty big news for you to beat mark lopez...congrats!

he is going to realise that all his pushups and kicks he did so someone handed him a belt he never learned how to protect himself or even throw a proper punch Gitchen Funakoshi was the master that brought karate from okinawia to japan and not to long before he died he told someone that he wished he had more time because he was just finaly understanding the straight punch (which is one of the first techniques you learn) do you really belive he did more in a year then funakoshi did in his life.

I'm telling you right now don't worry about belts they mean nothing. that guy went to class for a year and got inj tight with the instructor and probably worked really hard and got well conditioned and can probably do things like run five miles and do 200 push ups straight hes probably in good shape but I refuse to believe that in one year he learned what he should know to have enough bragging rights to call himself a black belt. Its sad that those are the standards we of society we live in.

Well, Your advice sounds really good. I heard a story that A guy trained and got a black belt in a 1year martial arts class that usually takes 4 years. Its because He trained that hard and went to that class every single day. With hard work and determination, I think I can beat them if I train for 2 years straight

Thats a really good goal to have but understand to compete in the olympics you have to be a black belt and anywhere you can get a black belt in two years you need to take a real good look at the caliber of black belts there producing you do what you want but my advice is just focus on the art learn to be learning and perfect your technique and be a good student tournaments will come in time.

your a 4 time national champion in taekwondo you say, cool. I want to compete in the olympics 2 years from now, my dad taught me some martial arts for a while, I want to take some taekwondo classes, train for 2 years straight, compete and beat the lopezez really badly

I am a 4 time national champion in taekwondo and I have won nationals in karate and for your information i have beat mark lopez at nationals a few years ago in knoxville and he doesn't kick that fast so you may want to think about that next time before you open your mouth to people you don't know.

when you win two gold medals and a bronze and come out as a world champion as many times as he has...you can throw your tongue around like you do...but untill then...respect his record...oh...and if you can bash him as well as you do...try and go in there and take a fast kick from him
-
That glorified point sparring punk what joke he is I laughed so hard I cried when he choked at bejing......And his brother mark shouldn't have even been aloud to go watch the mark lopez olympic trials gold medal match that is a joke it came out to be who knew who in the judges corner because he didn't win.

lopez coach whines like a baby for points
the guy form iran should know by know that steven is counter fighter, he has the talent to be an attacker, but he knows he is good so he just chills back and waits, that's how he scored all those points, it doesnt take a genius to realize that...i still say that steven is overrated. DOnt get me wrong the guy is talented like fuck, but but overstimate him and that gives him more advantage, bc they are giving him the win mentally

If you think Karami is a bad fighter, than you dont understand the game of taekwondo, you dont understand whats going on behind the kicks, Yossef Karami is one of the worlds greatest
