very entertaining good job guys

I would say it's 10% Physical and 90% Mental. Why do you think much older guys in theirs 60's and up can still defeat guys in their primes?

[chrisnealson]

hey that might just be your school, because my instructor has us practicing countering around the clock...

BTW all of this "tsd is better" "no tkd is better" "no they both suck" All comments like that are plain stupid. Every style is basically equal. Some are trained at stand up.. some are trained for ground game. But when It all comes down to it.. The better fighter usually has a great instructor and the will to become better.

sloppy

IMO, the touch scoring sparing system will ruin TSD the same way it ruined TKD.

Those slapping kicks at the 1:44 mark is typical of what I'm talking about.

You don't have to go full contract, but points should be award for techniques that can knock a person out. Not a back fists. Not slapping round kicks.

Those are sporting techniques that has nothing to do with the martial aspect of the arts.

Just my two cents.

the school i am attending teaches tang soo jitsu its pretty cool cuz it is a mix

[Doublejoe321]

this is so....confusing hahahah. I am a Kenpo Blackbelt. God why don't they keep there hands up...they just launch in fists going like whirlwinds....honest to god these are the championships? yikes....keep your hands up is the first rule! in Kenpo these guys would be down for the count in seconds. jees! but I guess its just the style to each there own nice video :)

probably going to regret this but throwing my hat into the ring as a 2 dan blackbelt in TSD, I think both should be considered sports, since the really came from the same origins and in watching alot of fights as well as fighting alot of TKD guys, both fights are very alike
