World Combat League

[JetTheDragon]

Who here watches or is a fan of Chuck Norris World Combat League. It's a great Kickboxing org, with teams from cities across the USA. It's like International rules Kickboxing, except more exciting. Fighters come from different backgrounds (Kickboxing, Muay Thai, Sanda, Karate, TKD) And it's a great org.

I have not been able to watch any yet. I didn't know if it was recorded, or showed on any channels. From what I watched there, it looks really enjoyable.

Welcome to the Forums!

That was awesome! I've had a little faff about with the website, looks excellent. Really hope that it goes international. It looks much more entertaining than both MMA and boxing, both of which I enjoy greatly so that really is saying something.

Thanks for the link, I was hoping to see some clips of this.

I have recently started watching the WCL on Versus. Has anybody been watching the fights?

[bushido_man96]

I don't get that channel, so I don't ever get to see them. I would love to, though.

Looks interesting. I wonder how they judge "3 inches above the knee" for the leg-kick rule when the fighters wear long pants though?

I didn't know that was a rule. I thought it was just above the knee to prevent injuries.

I've got to admit, I don't like it.

I've got to admit, I don't like it.

What is it that you don't like about it? Is the fact that they don't grapple, or just the way the fights are set up?
