My karate teacher said. You can train and train to make fights as perfect as possible in your mind. Yet when you actually fight its pure chaos. That is exactly what I see.
A wise men
Sounds like a guy with zero fights.
@@pinkydavis6113 yep and youre that guy
@@Dayumshawty let’s meet and find out if that’s true.
For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life John 3:16
I love how the crowd can view the fight so closely, yet safely without getting hurt.
The design of the ring is genius.
Apparently visibility was never a big concern for all cage fighting leagues. Unless I'm super close, I'd rather watch the fights at home. It would be incredible if the UFC adopted a design like this while keeping the design as close as possible to the octagon. Perhaps some structure could be incorporated to keep the cage dynamic. A short cage maybe?
🤯 don’t know what da fuck you’re proposing there!
I think they can allow that because there aren't many people. If this sport grows, and it starts to attract idiots, they will have to change that.
Bro I never knew karate combat existed (as a televised sport). I always thought it was points only. I love how unlike boxing, the ref just yells at the guy on the ground to get tf up 😂 awesome
Big fax
Lol.
Well it's not the kumite full contact tournaments. It amazes me what ppl retain and use when the chips are down. Not criticizing it's just what makes it from the dojo with it's strict forms to basically flailing about in some cases with little semblance of what art it is
Looks a lot like MMA especially when the one fighter was body slammed. But for all I know the slammer was disqualified.
It's a newer thing. I really like it. The competition is based on who's the better fighter unlike in mma where Twitter numbers matter more than the W column. The competition here is pure.
This is legit full contact traditional karate. Not watered down point crap.
Dude lol this not Karate this is just a brawl. No discipline, no technique.
Indeed.
@@davidbarroso4075 lot of technique in her bruh
@@davidbarroso4075 bro!! When you fight is chaos. what do you think? Is much better that than a fight with many rules is like how is done. The Japanese, in those time didn’t have rules they fought to kill! Is most likely how is done fight to win beating the shit out of your opponent..
@@davidbarroso4075 Did you know that fighting is that? Brawling with what you learned with like 5/10 or 7/10 of technique, controlling your space and distance and strategy? Did ali always had his hands up? No, but he managed to still beat the crap outta their opponents with hands up without them, with a perfect technique or without it, same as mike tyson or Jack dempsey or almost every fighter in the planet, technique isnt everything in the fight or what we should focus but its necessary tho
This channel will single handedly save the spirit of karate. Enough with that point shit
I think striking a down opponent should be a thing
Most of these weren't even karate executions. Just wild punches. Dumb
@@MrTrollbaby if you think those aren't karate moves, then you need to go train with a real sensei...
@@MrTrollbaby eh wild punches true but u can tell for sure these guys do some kinda sparring and training. a proper american boxer would put it on em especially a philly pressure fighter would tear these mother fuckers up. you can tell the venezuelan chick is a real professional. hand came back to chin.
@@tufab3494 what i wrote is true though. i did karate for 4 years. But even better, ive wanked my entire life.
0:57 BEAUTIFUL shot! Straight, short, powerful, and the timing: perfect.
That girl(I can't remember her name. 1st lady ko on the reel) had the best form out of everyone in this video. She pulled her hand back to position so fast it looked like she snatched the other girl's soul clean outta her chin.
You talking about my wife 😠😠 Just kidding only a fool would get married in this dayanage 😂😂
@@crisalcantara7671 🤣🤣🤣good catch!
because that's a proper tsuki.. not that cross punch that the commentator calls a tsuki later
That particular knockout gave me chills. Beautiful
The female fighters at karate combat are fierce!
This is how karate must be shown
These guys are freaking fast and explosive
Awesome to see these matches getting better with time
You can see the fight perfectly. Feels like you’re right there
The ridge hand knockouts are awesome!
3:49 true man of honor. One punch. Walks away when he knows his opponent is knocked out and can't fight back, instead of continuously punching like a coward.
Not sure about that coward statement but 1:26 as well.
Its not cowardly. If the ref doesn't immediately end it like in your example you cant hold back at all, in that split second you cannot know if the other person is fully out unless the ref ends the fight.
@@Wolfo70 obviously the fighters in question can tell if they're out and they had time to continue punching the brains out unnecesarily if they wanted.
@@Mo_Abbas they cannot tell and you have the referee to stop them if they see the fight is over, you are obviously super ignorant
Really nice compilation, got me pumped. Would be great to see a simmilar video with throws, takedowns or slams, to cover some karate grappling.
this video is spectacular, now all that is missing is the compilation of the best takedowns and the best sweeps, I hope they will be encouraged to do it
@Yang Mojo and wrestling is not the only style in which there are takedowns, in karate there are also sweeps and maybe you are confusing me but when I was talking about takedowns I was also referring to throws, here are some examples: kzhead.info/sun/iMmteq5qZKCHiGg/bejne.html kzhead.info/sun/e7Z7cpGdkXeDd4U/bejne.html kzhead.info/sun/gLNwpr6Pq36dlp8/bejne.html kzhead.info/sun/ldWfediemGp8pXA/bejne.html
The slam and the liver kick in the end are the best, though all are impressive.
this is legit "street-fighting" with gloves on. Brutal
I remember hearing about this a few years back and I didn’t expect much but those knockouts are brutal, but the environment there is really weird with all the people watching from the sides
its outstanding perfect view
It looks like a Tekken environment. No complaints here, though.
The environment is unique not weird...
Why is it weird?
looks like sum outta the movie bones 💀
This channel is INCREDIBLE!!!
You guys are doing an amazing job on brining karate back ive been doing karate for three years just got my green belt but I absolutely love what your doing with brining karate back, as badass as it once was. but every one should know that most karate gyms are traditional unlike these guys, they have modified there karate style into how it’s effective today. :) (anyways just wanted to say amazing job on bringing karate back) :)
Giving people brain damage for entertainment is not karate. This is just kickboxing with modified rules.
If this is karate then I'm Neil Armstrong on the moon right now. Rofl this is just brawl and the only karate thing I see is the stance they stubbornly keeping that forces them to stay unguarded all the time and take brutal headshots and knockouts. Lol karate is a joke
@@johncena12366 Karate is not a complete art. In self defence and combat sports practitioners try new things to improve on its effectiveness. The only reason we don't do it in traditional martial arts is because people are afraid we'll lose what makes the martial art unique. But they forget that karate was made to defend oneself. In this day and age we could get in fights with people who have combat sports experience and we'll need to at least be able to feel what it's like being hit hard so we're not taken by surprise. To stubbornly stay in the past is to be trampled on. This is a great new step for karate. It teaches karateka what it's like to be in a full contact striking match. It can only benefit the karateka. Whether the style starts to look different over time doesn't matter. It is what the old masters were seeking when they started to develop karate, not aesthetics but effectiveness and preparedness of the practitioner.
@@keeran9306 This ruleset teaches karateka how to fight in full contact, ONLY if they sign a contract and get the money. Almost no karateka is willing to compete full contact for free lol. Somebody should pay for the medical bills and missed work days due to injuries. For me nothing worths taking hits to the head by a trained martial artist. My chances of getting into a street fight is very low so I will stick into semi-contact, better than nothing and not as destructive.
@@johncena12366 In combat sports like kickboxing it's very seldom that they go 100% in training. They usually lightly tap the head and hit the body harder for conditioning to limit injuries. Another thing just because they get paid to fight pro in karate combat doesn't mean karateka can't train like that in a dojo. But like I said in combat sports they don't go as hard as you think in training. Me personally I would never fight pro but I would do training like this in addition to regular karate training for that edge I might need in a self defense situation but each to his own. Point is it has its usefulness.
These karate combat videos truly show how watered down karate has become. This vid was so satisfying, it felt like watching an MMA match without grappling.
You mean, it shows how shitty traditional karate is and this karate combat is basically boxing/kicking/muay thai 😂
@@Muay-MMA Exactly. Even 'karate combat' is not karate.
Kickboxing literally is a combination between Karate and Boxing lol makes no sense. And Muay Thai has a different stance and they fight differently. This is Karate, it just looks a bit different cause this is what real fights look like.
@@Muay-MMA Pretty much. Take my like.
@@argfasdfgadfgasdfgsdfgsdfg6351 This just means you doofuses don't know what Karate is.
This is fantastic!
The design of the ring is so cool. It’s like a gladiator pit
Love this. Karate Combat. Taking it to next level. Do youll show the fighters what dojo their from? Belts? Is it on espn?
3:25 that dodge and counter was awesome.
This art is powerful 😍🥰
This is what all Karate tournaments should look like.
An overwhelming majority of karateka will always chose to compete in point-fighting. It is absolutely devastating to fight with a trained martial artist and you can't blame people for not wanting irreversible brain damage. A lot of katateka are college students or people with full time jobs. This shit ain't feasible.
@@johncena12366 That’s fine, just don’t call yourself a fighter if you choose to do point-Karate.
@@pinkydavis6113 Lmao who wants to be called a fighter? I am a martial artist and an athlete. Cheers
good fight, well done guys, you can watch it
My new favorite sport. I never knew this even existed 🤷🏿♂️
the arena looks so kool.
The first knockout it's literaly the tekken intro!!
What's the point of even calling it a Karate tournament if fighter don't use one single recognisable karate technique and just bum-rush eachother with inelegant flurries of punched like some kind of schoolyard fight?
I guess you have seen a lot of Katas katas are just a demonstration of tehniques of course when people are under the pressure are going to use it differently than in Kata.
@@ognjenradanovic1256 Not even katas really, I mean like basic blocks, strikes and kicks. Every now and then they'll try to throw a proper kick here, but there's little or no attempt made to use the proper blocking method or do anything other than the punches and kicks that you'd see from a completely untrained person in a street fight.
@@GuyInAHotdogSuit69 yeah that is exacly Kata it's just katas used proper in combat if you think that all those tehniques are supposed to look like that than you don't know karate and you just watched MC dojos or KZhead.
most people in Karate combat lack full contact fighting experience since most were originally point fighters. However if you really look closely, they are actually applying a lot of Karate techniques in this fight
That liver kick
Karate 🥋 is good for combat and the technique’s and moves are very brutal and effective.
Damn it’s the same guy getting slept fawk!! 🫠
Some Great Timing going on here
All the fighters who come from semi contact karate are amazing in full contact.
Back of the head shots for daaaaays
You can call me The Fire Kareteka
Yess, ,its not pounding but the karate signature finishing that I like much 😁 I don't know what its call in karate. .
One day I will be in karate combat i promise
3 months later, any progress?
@@3d_pablo yea still practicing
Excelente video 👏.
nice karate fights
This is better than mma imo . No boring ass ground game . Pure combat .
This is FREEKIN AWESOME!!!💪👊👊👊
Omg ko naar ko 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I loved Karate Combat since the first fight I've saw.
some people say karate sucks and here are some nice knockouts 😅
This is fast.
Karate? It looks like kick boxing
3:06 what a takedown
Very good stoppages by the referee too to prevent serious damage to those who went out
The straight cross is so underrrated
great stoppage on the bodyshot
Would love to see how Wonderboy would do here… specially a prime Wonderboy
Best was the last one: that liver kick, ooof. I bet Bas was lovin it.
Dude at 3:56 like like if CM Punk and Matt Brown had a baby 😂
Damn, the women in this promotion are BRUTAL. In all my years of watching women's sports, MMA etc I've never seen a ref have to tackle one woman off of another.
Nasty kos
This is what real Karate looks like
Shows karate working 💪 😎
Well it Shows that Karate works against Karate
@@chrissid.3763 GSP, Bas, Wonderboy, Machida. Kid if u didn't know shit just shut up.
Always has been its just watered down by mcdojos there are some succesful karate practicioners like lyoto machida and stephen thompson
@@chrissid.3763 Also works great against untrained people, which is good enough for most of us.
The repeated head punches on the ground are brutal
Am I the only one who noticed that this not pure karate techniques? Like most punches were not karate punches. This is much like other version of MMA fights with karate rules. But hell of a good fight elevating the karate arts. Amazing!
I cant see the difference. Its more mma style
so what is your definition of "pure" Karate techniques? Because a lot of martial arts have similar techniques to one another
These fights are like Saturday nights outside the Tally Ho, just chaos, very little skill on show 😂
No hands up, barely any head movement, throwing punches wildly. This is what I call entertainment!!!
Right? It's nice that karate is stepping up it's game, but the defense department still need a lot of improvement.
Having your hands up all the time can cause fatigue, also you can see potential attacks faster if u keep the lead hand lower AND you can eventually catch kicks. It‘s not automatically bad, Mc Gregor has such a stance in MMA too, it can work if you are quick.
@@nikestrike8213 I come from a boxing background so my viewpoint on karate is a bit different but I don't necessarily mean have highguard up all the time, resting your elbows on your torso helps with the fatigue but also keeps your arms and hands in a position to have quick reactions in either direction. My original comment was by no means talking badly about karate, what I was saying was more of a compliment to the sport itself being more entertaining in a way. I spent many years believing boxing was the most enjoyable till my brother opened my eyes to mma and how much more unpredictable each fight can be because of all the ways to get a victory. I very much respect karate, no disrespect here.
Shout out Big Bas
Hopefully the sekai takai in cobra kai will be like this lol
The old man 🤌
It's nice that karate is stepping up it's game, but the defense department still need a lot of improvement. Hands down, zero head movement, a formula to pure chaos, love it.
2:50 the ref literally tackled her to make her stop lol
He was trying not to step on the girl's head and ended up falling, bringing the other girl down with him.
Superior Colour...We are the best....
I love that you can see glimpse of actual technique😂
Karate martial artists throw punches weirdly as they're usually very close.
this would be ten times better with knees and elbows. the production quality is the shit though. love it
yes, but that's already exits and it calls muay thai
@@shakalaka23 or kyokushin
@@migueldiaz248 no, in kyokushin they're not allowed to hit the head with nothing but high kick so they don't use elbow ; they use knee but not as often as nak muay
@@shakalaka23 in kyokushin COMPETITIONS. they also do u use elbow and also knees. they dont usually use knees and elbows bcos they dont have to. but in the dojo we train punches, elbows and kicks to the head along with kata and bunkai.
@@shakalaka23 they can knee the face in kyokushin it's just real hard lol
It's crazy how I'm just now finding out about this sport!
I have never liked karate but this is extremely a beautiful picture of the martialarts
Good seeing Dad-bod win!
Holy shit the moment the ref falls at 2:52 I was like WTF but he tripped himself so he wouldn't step on the downed fighter's face. He was about to and trips over nothing.
One guy knocked out multiple times 😂😂
Karate 👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿
I love how most of it’s just random swinging
3:24 dad’s bod can beat ripped playboy’s bod❤️❤️👍🏻
And that's why folks kyokushin disallow punches to the face. Cuz the results will be brutal.
Très spectaculaire ! Better than MMA…from far !
2:00 the kick at the back of the head is actually very very dangerous
It's not really the back of the head if it hits the ear. It just looks like it because of the angle of the foot
Top
all these punches to the back of the head when I guy gets dropped guarantees these knock outs
Ultra karate!
Beautiful fighting 👍👍
Would love to see wonder boy here
It’s a lot messier than I expected, but then again my expectations were unrealistic. Real fights get messy.
boxing skill and muaythai kick
This is how Karate or all martial arts fight tournament supposed to be. Like an 80s-90s van dame movies
The camera is better quality than UFC
Karate is the art of bare handed self defense.. This is a street brawl..
and fights are not cute boy, they will always be pure chaos and violence, if you think that karate or fights are a choreography looking perfect then you should go to watch fight movies
Dope compilation. Several shots were directly to the back of the head though. Should definitely police that more or we'll witness deaths in there. Such a soft sensitive spot to be hit in
@@mysterio7900 bad take lmao. Why am I a Karen for saying the compilation is dope and I just hope the fighters are more protected? If someone dies in there, it's a giant perception stain on the sport that's hard to wash off. My suggestion is for success and longevity sake as a combat sport fan. Rabbit punching is a term and illegal in boxing etc for pretty good reasons
@@brandongratta9040 this ain't boxing its allowed in the rules so.....
@@mysterio7900 I'm aware by them not reacting to these hits lol. I'm just saying it's a very high risk area for permanent damage so, for fighter health and sport longevity, it prob isn't a bad idea to consider a rule change. It's a young sport. So people will look for injuries like that to argue against allowing it in more places
@@brandongratta9040 I get it buds I do and it's appreciated but it's the nature of extreme combat sports . And the karen comment was just me hacking on you. You seem rather well spoken and a truly kind human being.
@@brandongratta9040 its just how it is, like in muay thai there are really good chanses to get k.o.ed if you find a knee or elbow in front of yourself and can be dangerous but its the extreme sport
Beautiful display of actual karate
This is full contact sport based karate, just like K1 kickboxing.
Windows Shutdown sound in the first
This is waaaay better than Olympics Karate
Looks like a street fight
The slam KO was filthy
