January 26, 201412 yr I don't prefer neither of them because they've given in to the politics of the governing association that's operating said tournament. Imho. **Proof is on the floor!!!
January 26, 201412 yr Neither, I used to do semi-contact point sparring, or playing tag as it is also known. Tea Kwon Do kick fighting for points is something I haven't experienced; but I don't like the look of it. Look to the far mountain and see all.
January 28, 201412 yr I'd enjoy the TKD Olympic style sparring more, without the pads and chest protectors. I think it would be a lot better that way. https://www.haysgym.com http://www.sunyis.com/ https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
January 29, 201412 yr I like this short-lived Pro Taekwondo from the 1990's. Olympic style TKD without chest protectors or headgear. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XBmHAGZ8QiA Being a good fighter is One thing. Being a good person is Everything. Kevin "Superkick" McClinton
January 30, 201412 yr I like this short-lived Pro Taekwondo from the 1990's. Olympic style TKD without chest protectors or headgear. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XBmHAGZ8QiAI did too. I thought the fights were great, and I even saw a win by KO with a punch to the body! https://www.haysgym.com http://www.sunyis.com/ https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
January 30, 201412 yr I truth, I'd rather do TKD sparring because of its constant sparring ideology. I have to admit that I don't like karate sparring because of its one and two step-sparring likeness. If I want to do one or two step-sparring, well, I'd do that instead. **Proof is on the floor!!!

Try to look up that Pro TKD, Bob. I think you will like and appreciate what you see. Its essentially Olympic TKD without the chest protectors and pads, like IcemanSK mentioned. Really was good stuff; lots of contact, not so much of the tip-tap look. It was a full-contact venue that allowed the counter-kicking and jump-spinning kicking to be showcased, along with the power they really put forth. https://www.haysgym.com http://www.sunyis.com/ https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com

March 16, 201412 yr IMO they both stink. To this day, I still can't figure out why TKD required chest protectors. Now you have a lot of paddy cake kicks instead of those power kicks that used to fold people in half. It's painful to watch some of todays matches as competitors sometimes look like donkeys gone wild.
