@Bassai Do U have anymore videos of Uchida fighting??

[@nathanruben3372]

what matters is who is standing last? Boxers taking huge punches rounds after rounds. Pure tachinique is not enough to win the fight. Karate kumite lacks this. Khoyuskin matches are better.

This first match is example of stupidity of sports karate,complete nonsense and bad rules.This is why i left karate as a sport.
