Have you tried out shotokan yet? Im trying mma because in the dojo near me, I noticed it seemed to have more younger kids and elderly people (in that dojo at least) mma class had people who were in better shape and closer to my age. I do recognize a guy from the dojo who comes in occasionally to train though.

@@altitudeadjustment259 I had my second class already. It's fun, I like it. There's a bunch of kids, though, just like you said too, but some of them are pretty skilled. I honestly wasn't sure the first day, but, while I destroyed my body in the process, the second day was fun and for some reason I felt more optimistic than before. But since I normally don't train or do anything at all, I came out of there exhausted. Now my legs and arms hurt like hell lol.

Nonsense. It‘s the way you train, Kyokushin has almost identical techniques to shotokan. They just spar harder. But all styles work if you train correctly

Do u train sir?

A lot of the time, the belts in competition do not denote rank, they are so the judges can differentiate between fighters. In some organisations, opponents wear red or blue belts, in others one wears white, one red, in others again people do wear their rank belts but one has a red ribbon tied round the back.

I disagree….yes you are right about being fast you have to be fast in a street fight either to run away or to react to attacks but again point sparring isn’t useful in a street fight because in a street fight you want the fight to be over as quickly as possible so you have to bring in a strong hits and semi-contact hits aren’t gonna do anything…..ultimately there are no points in a street fight.

@@bhaskarjoshi3067 it is not the art itself that its not useless but the artist. It depends on the artists. For example, if the artist knows how to control his contact whether hard or light, when he does hard sparring and light sparring or point sparring, I think it would work in a street fight. But the best option is to run away, only fight when you have no choice. But since the topic here is point sparring, it just leaves the guy of how he will make it work, it would be better if they had a hard sparring session. But also, Karate is not just an art of sport, but also for self defense

@@youngchristianboy yes I agree….all martial arts are useful and useless at the same time in a street fight….if a person can implement karate into a street fight thats great and if a person can’t implement karate into a street fight then its useless….take Boxing for example in a street fight if you go ahead and start punching like a boxer and hit the other guy in the forehead you’ll break your hands without gloves but if you can make some changes to make it more useful like instead of punching at the face you punch the person in his solar plexus or his throat and instead of making a fist and throwing jabs you can open your hands and start scratching his eyes out….or just push the guy away….the street isn’t a ring.

​@@youngchristianboy oh no. It's very much about the art too not just the artist. Your karate might be effective against an untrained person but against someone who has trained and sparred well it's next to useless. All that leaping in and out is literally begging for a counter for an experienced person. Sorry to break your bubble but shotokan has it's limits. Not saying it doesn't have some good techniques but it won't do well against a well trained seasoned fighter

@@huskaroar6869 Karate is just about a sport, but it has some self defence techniques. The techniques in sparring are different from the techniques in street fight. There are some moves that are deadly, and if you apply it on your sparring, you'll get kicked out. But when talking about combat, it depends on the artist if they teach them some effective techniques. We can look at Rafael Aghayev, he is a Kumite Champion in Sport Karate which is light contact. But he also join in Karate Combat which is full contact. The stances are similar but the style is no different. It depends on the artist if they have good control or not. If they sparr in full contact most of time or not. At the end of the day, you can either fight or not

just blindly throwing punches and kicks

You know they'd make a joke out of you in a fight right?

@@K1nfluence 🤣 I have many Muay Thai fights. Search for "Sanda NM 2022" and see how my friends beat up the best Karate guys with ease.

Most MA are.

I still practice shoto at 53 of age

Not even close to Taekwondo. Low kicks. Low stances. Catching the leg. No spin kicks. No sparring gear. This may not be Shotokan (idk, I do Taekwondo) but this is definitely karate.

@Senpai chris🥶 nah not even half of him i am only 4/10th of him ... I don't know about height though I'm 5'10 and if you are judging me on the basis of my profile photo ... Sorry my friend it's very old one ♥️♥️♥️♥️ Anyways thank you for your reply

Yeah but it looks so unrealistic... ad the one that hits first gets the point, people hesitate to move towards each other, this looks like fencing hahaha. In full contact, people usually will walk up to each other's kicking range and start throwing stuff, which is kind of what would happen in a real fight.

@@jestfullgremblim8002 Right, I use to do point sparring (kempo karate) myself before I went to Full contact (Kyokushin)

@@dakentaijutsu2010 cool, and also weird because the only Kempo Karate dojo that i have went into, didn't have point sparring haha. Anyways, point fighting can give you an advantage over untrained people, but when you fight a Muay Thai person (or any other style with full contact) you will not know what to do against them

As a Shotokan and Kickboxing praticioner i can say that Kickboxing and Full contact is just the evolution of Kumite sparring. When Karate, as a combat sport, was made, it was in a time that Japan just losted the World War 2, the Japanese was terrified by nuclear bombs and all the horror from the war and everthing related to war wasn't well seen by the japanese people. So the karate masters had the challenge to make Karate popular in Japan but show that Karate is not violent, but a beatifull art that can teach nice values to the japanese citizens. So they create a rule, based in Judo, that can be competitive and safe at the same time, focused on clean techniques, for regular people (not really fighters or athletes) of any age and body type could pratice, so they reach the sucess and Karate was soon being trained in the Japanese universities. So, Karate as a sport was fast spread to the world, and soon, the Karate wave hit the west. But the westerns wanted something even more competitive, so they adapted Karate to boxing rule system and created what was first knowed as "Full Contact Karate" and with the time become a different sport called Kickboxing. So Full contact Kickboxing is basically a hardcore western version of Karate. Nowdays it is what Karate Combat actually represents.

@@TiagoPortas Nice explanation. It's quite interesting how this "non-violent-art-with-nice-values" narrative was copied by basically every martial art in the West when they tried to promote themselves, specially in educational milieus. As for kickboxing, when I practiced it nobody told me it was inspired in karate. Maybe the sport evolved into a very different direction, because the techniques look so different now. Not to mention that karate looks more complete in terms of techniques used.

You can try. if you want

@@Watachannel9638 I see, u mtfk is in Indonesia. you weak mtfk want to wake up THE HELL. AT LEAST THE OLD BASTARD'S FACE IS REVEAL 😈 ua-cam.com/video/zmTO7SKZHrI/v-deo.html

Say that to a Kyokushin practitioner, I'm sure they would love to show how...weak Karate really is!

This is point sparring dumbass ofc there isn’t any major contact 🎃

Look for a traditional shotokan dojo then \_(ッ)_/

Underrated comment 😂

You mean Ken and Ryu (they are based on Shotokan karate), Sub-Zero is Chinese.

More likely Hanzo Hasashi

​@@daneoman1000 Sub-Zero officially uses Shotokan in some games (Deception, Armageddon) that's why he made that joke

​@@daneoman1000actually Ryu and Ken's fighting style is more based on Kyokushin than Shotokan!
