Karate Combat Rules With Bas Rutten and GSP 

All I heard was "baa baa" hearing two GOATS talk🔥🔥🔥

I am pleased that these two accomplished martial artist and gentleman are representing karate combat. These two guys are awesome!

I've really been falling out of love with the UFC, and I'm so happy I found KC.

wow two of the greatest fight legends together. amazing. its also interesting to learn about karate.

Was that the WAG at the end hahaha

We live in the golden age of fighting sports. So many options. Bas and GSP need their own sports show.

Would love to be a fly on the wall to hear the conversations between two legends like GSP and Bas.

"that's very frowned upon" 😂😂😂 I love KC but I think it would be awesome to allow thigh kicks, it's something found in a lot of karate especially in Kyokushin

0:07 Kinteki-Geri(Kin-Geri) = Groin Kick Nihon-Nuki-Te = Eye Poking (Index Finger + Middle Finger Eye Poking) Zu-Tsuki = Head Butting Sebone-Eno-Kogeki = Back Attack, Spine Attack & Spinal Cord Attack Hansoku = Against The Rule, Foul Shikkaku = Disqualify (D.Q)

Awesome to show in-fight visuals of all techniques described. Two legends of the game. Makes me want to watch

Discovered this yesterday and this was just the video I needed as I never watched karate before. And what better duo to cover that than these two Chads!

Two of the best men to ever compete and exist in the MMA world, amazing champions and people.

Thank you the fans needed this

Karate combat took out the most important kicks in Kyokushin karate the inside and out side kicks to the thighs. The reason given because they don't have that in the Olympic karate. Seems like rules are favorable to a certain type of karate. The irony is to have two Kyokushin Karateka as the host for the show.

Love both of those guys

2 of the best to ever do it. Big up from The Bronx Zoo (Legendary Hall of fame athletes) #RESPECT

Good rules for the safety of the fighters and to demonstrate Karate.

I am all about this new combat sport series. Getting these two greats to be the ambassadors was really smart. I hole the series lasts long and prosper.

This seems so interesting

I like this new fight this what we need

What about elbows?

Nice

🔥🔥🔥🔥

Man I wish they would add elbows and active clinch

🔥🔥🔥

the marketing team of Karate combat need a raise. They even got a pretty woman asking us to subscribe in the end

I don't like that wall arena.... are they try to mimic fighting in room?

Seeing people getting swept on a 45° slant is something I did not expect.

🔥

Lol love how they say karate chop is not realistic. Yet bas just gave us an example.

Would be good to make sure the refs are 100% clear on the rules and enforce them consistently :) As we can hear from the commentary, these two GOATs know the rules totally clearly. Honestly, give them a bullhorn and make them the ref! ^^

Are you also planning to add some submission in the future?

So why do people say karate is not effective

Only_Karate_Kicks_Allowed ❤❤ Hi folks ! I am a Martial Arts enthusiast . Just an Amateur Karate guy , who learned Karate mainly from a book ! ❤ ❤ Yet, I think , I made an influential speech relating to Karate, as I saw a Karate competition advertised with an interesting phrase : "Only Karate kicks are allowed" At first, I thought this might be a bad idea, and possibly make the Tournament a little boring . But then , I was watching some other Kickboxing and I noticed how dangerous a kick could be, if not performed in a certain way. Of course in Karate sparring (don't ask , how I know this ). Generally it's proper technique to always point the toes, when delivering a kick. Particularly, if you know what a Roundhouse is ? The kick , that is most like a Boxer's Hook. Perhaps targeting the thigh, more recently the calf . With maybe a Superstar , able to target the head with a Roundhouse. A powerful kick used very commonly in Thai Boxing. In a karate demonstration often, it's light contact, not full contact. The toes are always pointed when the kick makes contact which is great as it reduces the chances of injuries. This, I remember thinking might give, an organisation a financial edge. As, there's not going to be spine injuries or neck injuries. With less injuries, hopefully it's cheaper to stage the show. Yet, it might work against the organisation if, a more brutal club. Allows the athletes more freedom to experiment as, income from spectators might br less. With a safer game. Athletes may perform for free as volunteers. Insurance should be less. But it doesn't always work like that ! The only problem is, it might take away, the Martial Artist freedom of expression a little. Plus, it might be a little more boring for spectators who are mainly. Not going to know about the rules exactly. They will probably not read The Rules and pick up The Rules from watching the games . Of course they may try to copy, and their is a risk of pollution here, with a more violent society and the possibility of injuries. People might feel compelled unnecessarily to have to learn Karate. As everyone is doing it ! Including the mean thugs. Trying to bully people for their Dinner Money ! 😊🎉

Hearing Bas say Bada Bing Bada Boom is hilarious 😂

man... the rules seem too goofy. it'd be interesting though to have an mma match in the pit.

They should allow low kicks

DJ and Rodtang should have fought under these rules instead

I'm a Kyokushin practitioner too, and I like calf kick as well, even though it is forbidden in most of Kyokushin fighting. I found that most thigh kick, especially to the inside part of the thigh, will eventually hit the groin as well. So I agree to reduce this chance by utilizing calf kick rather than thigh kick.

Those knee rules are weird tho, let people knee in the clinch or it makes no sense.

Always bet on black.

1st

I heard you guys have one here in Orlando, How do i join to fight?
