[GaoRenEUMGO]

@checkyerself it wasnt open, i was in the 5ft 5 and over section for 16 - 19 year old. I was only 16 at the time but im rather tall.

@foldedintobeauty3 yes its a sign of respect for your oponent, in the same way that you bow to him

@Sadoruro you mentioned jungle arts is insufficient and no longer exist. Naha-te is goju ryu and the art was adapted to the environment. Escrima is not a jungle art, it's not insufficient and it's not extinct. Google your facts before discussion. Thank you.

I see many people commenting, "lack of control". What does that mean? How about saying his opponent lacked in keeping his hands up. If you throw a reverse punch, it should be applied correctly and not thrown half speed or softly. Any technique you learn should be applied the way it was designed to.

@johnmel1980 They can't just change the opponents all the time if one of them is really short or tall. Sometimes you opponent's taller, bigger, hits harder than you, has trained twice as long as you....etc. etc..Everybody knows that when they go there.

@farmerdwight In todays tournaments, you don't pick your opponents yourself...

[farmerdwight]

@GaoRenEUMGO Why don't you pick on someone your own size? Afraid of getting beaten in a fair match?

[MrTimeDestroy]

sure the distance was miss judge, BUT your kizame was really good and if it knocked him out it's because it was really precise and that's really good ! :) and seriously got knocked out like 10 times harder in my training cause I was going full speed at the other and he came full speed at me and I got knocked out and it was MY fault cause I wasnt protecting my head like he didnt protect his and it took me less than 1 sec to get up not 1h... so I say you should have won ^^ still nice kizami :)

[johnmel1980]

I dont get it. is the small guy winning? he's the one who got knocked out. i think this is unfair fight. they should find someone their own size to fight with.

[jaseins]

This art wasn't intended for sport.

That said, he could have hit him even harder.
