Hajime Kazumi demonstrates the power of gedan mawashi geri 

just like muay thai low kick...

blazeforever Exactly like Muay Thai low kick. Kyokushin Karate is like a mongrel dog, bitsa this and bitsof that, we have no pedigree to be concerned about when we see effective moves. We love our stolen kick. Oyama saw Thai practitioners doing it, loved it and took it. Traditional Karate roundhouse kicks are done with the top or ball of the foot, makes for good surgical strikes to the head and body but the fact that the foot is a bag of tiny bones means strikes have to be surgical, using the shin as the weapon the way Muay Thai practitioners do allows so much more potential for breaking things that get in the way of bashing the head and body, annoying things like defending arms and legs.

Hồng Vân Khang Trương My Sensei thought me on this, chopping it like a tree. So tall guy can be imagine as a tree and his mawashi geri is like an axe strike. TIMBER !!!!

Youre so right !

+psychedashell and our Kyokushin roundhouse travels knee first then kick, it is best used at a close maii and is more accurate but slower. Muay Thai is faster and will hit harder, but are less accurate and don't hit with a very small area of the body so the damage is more spread out.

Actually it was way back when It had grappling (Okinawan wrestling from Goju-Ryu, kodokan judo, and some jujutsu from shotokan) and face punches/elbows/etc were allowed. The rules changed over time So it was complete at one point, and a few schools still teach it the way it was meant to be taught

By punching the face. (Muay thai)

@@trollgag5221 punching the face isn't allowed in this style of fighting

@@AngryBenny yes I am aware of this, I practuce kyokushin.

By blocking or lifting your legs.

there's many ways if it was different rules, but in kykushin rules...I dunno, not entirely sure on what a seasoned kyokushin guy would do, but I would probably try to check the kicks or keep my distance a bit more further.

Any luck?

Any luck?

Any luck?

And how well you can mitigate damage The amount of ukeru is fucking crazy

With proper conditioning and training u can take kicks

Um saio sem as costelas e o outro sem a perna

yes he is great, thanks I found more videos using his name thanks again

nahh, its ok ;) ur welcome hahaha :D

its like this, there is no head protection, the reason they can endure so many blows is because we train to endure those blows, simple as that... regarding the real self defense situation the fighting style you see here is very different that it would be on the streets, its important to keep your distance and when you do make a move, you end it with one, because there is no fooling around in the streets. i hope i clarified you

Firelement3 Thanks for the reply. I understand it a lot more now.

you are welcome man

It’s not just “tanking” You can train that to a high extent but the top dogs always learn high levels of Ukeru Ukeru is to receive and it’s learning to subtly shift your body (weight, muscle, posture, height, etc) in order to be able to minimize damage without giving up a limb to block or stepping off balance. Kyokushin is more about cutting angles rather than “advanced” footwork (back peddling, diamond stepping, etc)

Yes japoneses are currapted in fight bussiness. E verdade mano os japanes Sao tan corruptos. Cara brasilero ganava .

what do u mean by that ? u want names of fighters ?

Glaube Feitosa vs Hajime Kazumi

It's almost a TKO

+bakr wolf you realize gedan mawashi geri is a low turning kick right? its the kick most used by all fighters. or maybe you meant ushiro gedan mawashi geri, which is a low reverse turning kick

Liquidcadmus no i meant gedan mawashi geri but i meant few fighters can actually use it effectively..i know that everybody throws gedan mawashi geri but it's more like a way of distracting your opponent nobody uses it to crush the opponent like hajime kazumi

woah you make it sound interesting to learn well im a kyokushin student (brown)

+bakr wolf LOOOOOL thats the most used kick in martial arts hahahah

+lay nadji u know that u can fuck everything up in this kick more than in chudan or jodan mawashi . cause when u r kicking chudan mawashi it is rare to block it with a knee or shin and blocking with leg on jodan is impossible . so in the end gedan mawashi is one of the toughest techniques to learn to use it in a fight

Because he is do violation

Every style has its rules.

Loic Jeandel cause you dont wanna get hit by seasoned bare knuckles which could broke your jaw and open it .

Loic Jeandel Japanese logic. Punches are so much faster it's easy to tear faces to bloody shreds with bare-knuckles. Kicks are slower and take more energy to use, so if you get kicked in the face you deserved it.

Loic Jeandel It takes little skill to deliver a face punch, but a head kick is very difficult to accomplish. This therefore shows good technique and good karate. I hope that answers your question...

Loic Jeandel Just imagine their bare knuckles can break slab of ice , wooden block, cement block etc. Can you imagine hitting your face with those hard and bare hand. You want full contact, so simple, put head gear and gloves. If you still don't know why, just enrol in any refutable Karate martials arts, Shotokan, Kyukushin,, Enshin, Ashihara , Goju Ryu etc. for you to understand.

And yet in a close fight they gave Filho the fight even though almost everyone agreed kazumi won

Gerard Gordeau did wonderful work in early MMA competition of proving that if you can’t win fair then breaking the rules probably isn’t going to help your situation. Four matches, two clean wins and two losses that he tried to gouge and bite his way out of that he still lost and not via disqualification, he tapped out both times because his biting and gouging failed to convince both opponents to let go of dominant positions.

@@psychedashell You mean gouging your opponent's eye out?

@@niennordeild4389 Yuki Nakai chose to continue fighting for the win over keeping his eye. He also chose to compete in two more matches that night rather than seeking medical attention that may have saved his vision in that eye, on top of that he covered it up for years to protect the sport. For all the damage it did for the rest of Yuki Nakai's life gouging simply didn't cause enough pain to prevent Yuki from thinking coherently or have any way to force him to let go. A truly successful pain compliance technique overrides coherent thoughts like choices leaving only fear and pain. A truly successful leverage technique offers threats through pain but at the end of the day those threats are due to the leverage being literally capable of breaking the user free by breaking joints. Truly successful chokes and strangles work by denying blood or oxygen and like true leverage the user will be able to break free regardless of the sufferer's choices in the matter - the sufferer will pass out and lose all holds or the attacked limb will cease to function and lose all holds. Gouging causes very real, very lasting damage but it is not a successful pain compliance technique, it is not a successful leverage technique and it is not a successful choke or strangle technique. People think moves that are banned from MMA must be banned because they are powerful but this simply isn't true, banned techniques cause lasting damage but often escalate fights rather than ending them or even truly shifting dominance, that guy you gouged but didn't manage to break free of doesn't just want your wallet anymore, he now wants your wallet and revenge for whatever your gouging efforts did.
