@MrDeathbydying 4 года назад

@shazamsakazaki 4 года назад

Bas is also a Karate guy, but his school (Kyokushin Karate) is more about brute force. I also was impressed by Kyoji Horiguchi. His speed was beast. Imagine throwing a mawashi geri while circling around. And the guy always keeps himself busy moving in all direction. If Machida is the representative of the traditional "Go no Sen" approach (waiting for the opponent's attack to counter) and Wonderboy is the representative of a more Westernize "Go no Sen" approach, Horiguchi is definitely that "Sen no Sen" guy (attacking before the opponent begins)

@MrRazmut 4 года назад

@@shazamsakazaki kyokushin guys throw their lead leg up without telegraphing as well. Bas is just a tank of a man, I think that's why his style was like that

@shazamsakazaki 4 года назад

@@MrRazmut It's not like I'm saying Kyokushin guys telegraph when throwing lead leg kicks. On the contrary they can throw a kick even in close distance where people expect exchange of punches and don't think a kick is possible, and that's great about them. I just comment about why Bas style is different than Thompson.

At one point I was wandering whether karate is useful at all in a fight, but you and Machida had removed all the doubt and karate techniques are so much more aesthetic than other striking martial arts.

Great stuff. These are some of the exact same things my master drilled into me and that I've been drilling into my students for the last 20+ years. I have a lot of great drills for hip control, endurance and strengthening. Nice breakdown and emphasis on correct form first. This proper form isn't just important for the speed and power of the kick but also the health of the hip and knee. The sheer lack of kicking form that exists overarchingly in MMA drives me crazy. It is something that has really set you apart from the crowd and something that has gotten me interested again in watching the sport.
