They will cut your head off and you won't even notice

It will surprise him t the first time , after that , he won't be surprised , I think the only way to overcome him is by becoming a good infighter , work on that .

Among all those great martial artists that helped developing martial arts , nobody has ever mentioned Mohammed Ali/Cassius Clay , the way he lived , the way he fought , how he influenced boxing sports by his "Dance like a butterfly and sting like a bee." style , that not only developed boxing , but also kick/thai boxing and every boxing related style . I personally think that the man is a legend ,what dop you say ??

Lots of kickboxers use the kyokushin version of low kicks, there is a describtion of it in that page . http://www.kyokushinmail.com/koya/KickInstruction.htm Kikcboxing rules favor the thai boxer .

I am sorry , I didn't get your point

What about punches to back them up ?? They will have to lower their guard to defend their mid area and BOOM , you connect with a hard axe

Nice pisc feels , your sensei is japanese ??

Andy Hug had long legs , Uchikatageri works perfectly with tall people who fight from distance , and it's a good solution for close ranged/short fighter , however , you must be very fast or you may get caught

I voted for yes , however , Katas are usefull ONLY if you train in bunkai with a partner , punching and kicking air is not enough

I forgot to mention : use your axe kick , it will drive him away for 1 second or 2 .

In fighting is a lot more easier , especially for smaller persons , I am a close ranged fighter myself and taller persons/kickers have a lot of pain dealing with my low kicks and close ranged punches

Use low kicks , front kick , knees , elbows(if allowed) and uppercuts , if he gets to close then punsh !!! force him to back off .

Wow , awsome man , good luck in the tournament

What about being the president , any body thought about that ???

No , I am not (My style is kyokushin , I don't think they are invited at all

Couldn't agree more

Thx .. will , yeah it just happned But now I feel sorry for him I was just informed that he never showed up in his dojo ever since

Kyokushin ..

Katana ?? what a shame

Hello NeilT Are you going to participate in it ?

That is absolutely true. Often on these forums you get asked about Shotokan's effectiveness or this style vs that style, etc etc. It's not up to the style to make you effective, it's your responsibility. Amen

Welcomezzz

lol .... I wasn't going to participate in the tourny at the first place , I was there as a refree but when I saw him wearing his GI and ready to compete , I asked the promoter for a special match with the guy and he agreed

Here is what happened , we had a tournament last Sunday (yesterday) and the guy was there so I challenged him to a match , he couldn't refuse , he was like 25 pounds heavier than me and I kicked his a^^ real hard , I K.O.ed him with a low kick in front of everybody so now he will think twice before badmouthing any one

Why , in all of Bruce Lee's movies , the bad boy appears in a karate Gi , or a karate pants , and fights like a karate-ka ??? And you say he had nothing against karate ???
