Keumgang Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Hi all - I'm a Taekwondo practicioner and along with 5 other teammates, I will be fighting in a tournament on Jan 29, 2005 called the "Sabaki Challenge". I hear that it's pretty brutal. No sparring gear; just mouth and groin guards. Anyone here ever participate in a tournament like this? There are no inns on the highway to death. For whose house will I stay in tonite?Prince Otsu, Japan 751 AD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knockdown Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 http://sabaki.enshin.com Here's the link if anyone wants to know more. That is the right organization and style. the tournaemnt in question is a regional and not the "Big One" out in denver. But it will have some of the same fighters, and of course same rules http://virginiakarate.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7 good stuff!~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
