Imagine the average MMA brainlet watching naked men having borderline gay sex in a cage because he thinks it has something to do with real combat. He doesn’t know real combat. He has no idea. Traditional Karate training is all about weapons and lifting and building up tolerance to pain, to withstand real combat.
This bloke here gets punched and kicked in the liver many times and he doesn't even flinch
training with traditional weapons
When the government finally comes and takes the guns from you cucks, you’re going to need REAL KARATE.
What a terrible thread
>traditional martial arts
>real combat
lol
also in your second video everyone in the comments shits on the dude for doing it wrong lol
Yes you idiot, we use weapons in real combat and traditional martial arts are all about using weapons. Your homosexual gym doesn’t train with weapons ever, only with dildos. Then you all (literally) circle jerk each other off while you watch the latest UFC fight that has been worked months ago, the ref is getting paid more that both fighters combined just to keep his mouth shut. He happens to be the only one who doesn’t have his mouth open all the time in this gay community.
You're shitposting but the truth is karate is quite robust and holds up in world class competitive fighting today- it lacks grappling as a rule but you couldn't pick a better stand up foundation
May I ask why you would try to grapple in a real fight? As soon as the guy pulls out his knife, you’re fricked. There’s a reason why newaza isn’t emphasized in traditional martial arts. It’s not because they were stupid and didn’t know Judo. Jigoro Kano was good friends with the Okinawan masters, they knew what he knew. They just didn’t want to water down their real martial arts by making them a sport. Look here, this fricking fisherman is fighting with his OAR
>May I ask
>t. russian demor poster
OK Ivan
>As soon as the guy pulls out his knife, you’re fricked.
With bare hands most effective tactic against knife is grappling anon... Catch knife hand control it with both hands no substitutions and work from there. Sure it is not 100% reliable (nothing is 100% reliable when you in teh such disadvantage , but it what will do the best.
As guy said
>If that’s not possible, the worst thing you could do is trade shots with him. He’s putting steel into you while you’re hoping for a knockout shot.
Karate turned military combat into physical fitness. It wasn't a secret, a lot of masters like Kenwa Mabuni or hōjun Miyagi, well all the okinowan styles of karate, we a means of tradition, exercise for all, history, spirituality and discipline.
People that go into karate thinking they are learning a combat sport are moronic.
I don't know karate myself
Just boxing and grappling
But I have fought home invaders with a machete multiple times, it is an improvised weapon from a gardening tool
Blueberry harvest was great, made a bunch of cinnamon and brown sugar down home country blueberry jam for breakfast. That's what I'm talking about. Safe home and abundant harvests.
Never heard of this "REAL KARATE" but yeah that looks pretty hardcore not gonna lie. Thanks for the heads up.
>thinking physical combat looks like gay sex
this says more about you than it does the combatants
also nobody ever said Karate isn't real
you may be confused with Aikido or Chinese kung fu martial arts
Karate came from China. How new are you?
Kenpo came from China
Karate is all Japanese
Kara Te = China Hand
Gichin Funakoshi changed the symbols to "Empty Hand", but pronounced the same.
Karate was always kung fu.
And it had throws and weapons before Funakoshi removed them.
There have been a handful of Karateka who have done well in MMA or kickboxing, and a few I rate as street fighters. Lyoto Machida is the poster boy even if he does drink his own piss. Shigeru Oyama worked as a bouncer in the States. Yoshiji Soenu fought in Thailand, so did Benny "the Jet" Urquidez.
I wouldn't have bet against Andy Hug in any kind of fighting. Whatever else he was, John Keehan was a decent points fighter and pioneer in MMA and reality-based training. I mean, sure, he was a psychopath and a compulsive liar, but he was more than competent in Robert Trias' system of judo and karate.
Joe Lewis in his prime would have rolled over most of today's fighters.
Your mileage might vary with Mas Oyama. It's hard to tell the bullshit from his actual achievements.
Tak Kubota was trained as a child assassin, like something out of Gunslinger Girl.
But yeah, generally, "traditional" karate is crap, like kung fu for morons, and kung fu isn't that fricking great to begin with. It's only individual fighters and masters who break the mold. The fighters of Okinawa were probably generally a lot better back in the day when they fought more duels and life and death situations. Steel sharpens steel and pressure creates diamonds. Any art is only as good as the rigorousness of the time and place it's in.
Monkey style is best style
Check this out Brody, if karate was the best style, it would reign in the cage, or ring when Pride was around. Only a handful of karate fighters have done well. Mainly because they were well rounded in other styles. As far as weapons go, a dude with a knife that can grapple is more dangerous than a karate fighter with a knife. I shouldn’t need explain why. If your opponent pulls a knife and you’re still standing, your best course of action is to first try to escape. If that’s not possible, the worst thing you could do is trade shots with him. He’s putting steel into you while you’re hoping for a knockout shot. Go ahead and reach out to some MMA fighters online and challenge them with your rules. My guess is you wouldn’t measure up to noob MMA dudes, even if they were fighting by your rules. You’ve wasted years doing shit that doesn’t work well. I’ll take a good wrestler or jiu jitsu player over muy Thai and karate fighter every time.
>it would reign in the cage, or ring
it does you're deluded if you think otherwise
Rough & Tumble is the only real fighting style. MMA has a shit ton of rules. Only real fights to the death are legit.
