Only because it's so widespread and it's an Olympic sport. Both have their merits in terms of sporting value. ITF is like a taekwondo styled kickboxing or similar to kyokushin.
I used to compete back 1981-2000 in WTF taekwondo and now at 49 I'm secretly thinking about starting ITF tkd. I'm the kind of guy who love aaaaall taekwondo. 😊
Mate a genuine thank you. I left TKD after 5 years and becoming a black belt a junior world champ. Looking back I now have no clue why.. your video was one things that’s made me want to come back.
+Super Nova The reason WTF made it into the Olympics is due to pressure placed by South Korea. WTF style is the national sport of South Korea. The founder of the ITF style , Grand Master Choi Hon Hi was born in North Korea and fell out of favour with the South.
+Arron Neus Some body asked the big master Choi Hong Hi: ; What do you think about WTF Taekwondo? He asked: I hawe created just one TKD!!! And thats ITF!! Sorry!
Well done Mr Tooby, keep on training, focus your mind for a part of EVERY day on an aspect of taekwondo (patterns, interpretations, stretching etc) Identify a goal in EACH ASPECT (write this goal down) and as you attain the goals - tick them off. You will continue to progress. Also, sell taekwondo to as many of your freinds and neighbours as you can, get them to come down for the first lesson and if they then don't like it then so what? taekwondo isnt for everyone but if some of them continue with taekwondo it will keep you motivated and promote the art itself. good luck
I train in OLD SCHOOL WTF Moo Duk Kwan TKD and we fight EXACTLY like this.. None of that hands down BS. We get yelled at for hands down. lots of punching techniques ..No full Body protectors, just chops, kicks and mouth guard. Im embarrassed to be associated with the WTF.. We dont go to any Tournies because we always get disqualified.
Thats just sport fighting. The street part is much harder. I think ITF TKD is realy great. But students need great Masters. Masters they folloving the way of Choi Hong Hi!! I make videos to show people the real Taekwondo. Whit ITF TKD can a student defend her self. Its not just a sport. Its hard! Thats the message :)
People who think TKD is like the wtf style in the olympics. Let met tell you, when you get a fighter from ITF Taekwondo who has knowledge of hands can more than hold his own in kb
Now this is the real taekwondo, the only bad thing about it is that itf sparring is also semi contact only, but at least it's continous instead if point and stop like in point fighting karate competitions. It would be cool if there was a full contact ruleset, althought you see knockouts like this sometimes.
Nokaut "nije dozvoljen", ali ako se dogodi, sudije procjenjuju da li je s namjerom ili iz tehnike od koje se ne očekuje da se može savršeno kontrolirati. I opet, ITF taekwondo je u većini nastupa gledljiv, nije dosadan i teža su taktiziranja. ITF zakon.
I’d probably stick to the tournament footage, not that silly choreographed shit in between. That stuff is laughable. The guy featured from 1:49 - 2:10 can actually fight, but after him everything is a complete joke. The intro fight at the start is practically a parody of TKD, not a compliment. I love TKD, and that Hwoarang style power and precision, which is why I want people to see how legit it can be in the right hands, not those silly demonstrations.
Wtf -- attack,attack,attack Itf---- self-defence then attack Wtf has straight punch(Just body punch) ITF has body and head punch But at last both were taekwondo...
Love the actual fights but not that choreographed martial arts cheer leading nonsense inbetween. Stuff like that is such a waste of time and gives people a false vision of how ITF combat actually works. Stick to the legit battles because they're gold.
ITF Taekwon-do is the original TKD. Taekkyun a traditional Martial art most foot, Hwarang Do, a Traditional Martial art to kill, and Gi-Baek, all from Korea!! History from Korea, this styles are in one modern style, the original TKD. It was in tha army, now it is in the world. But for good TKD you must search a Good TKD School. They are to much fake Schools.
I am pretty sure that official ITF rules state that a competitor is disqualified for uncontrolled or ecessive contact and also disqualified for causing a knockout. Anyone of these guys if fighting under what you say is "true TKD" would be disqualified. Yet you are making a claim in this video that true ITF is full contact with knockouts and street worthy fighting and somehow better than WTF sparring. WTF sparring has official rules that encourage knockouts and excessive contact does not exist because they encourage excessive contact and want to cause damage.
T 36. MINUS POINTS/FOULS One point will be deducted for the following offences: a. Heavy contact. b. Attacking a fallen opponent. c. Leg sweeping. d. Holding/grabbing. e. Intentional attack to a target other then mentioned in art. T33
MaharlikaAWA T 38. DISQUALIFICATION a. Misconduct against officials or ignoring instructions. b. Uncontrolled or excessive contact. c. Receiving three (3) minus points/fouls directly given by the Centre Referee. d. Being under influence of alcoholic beverages or drugs. e. Loss of temper. f. Insulting an opponent, coach and or official. g. Biting, scratching. h.. Attacking with the knee, elbow or forehead. i. Causing a KO. (see T.39)
T 35. LIGHT CONTACT SCORING PROCEDURE SYSTEM In competition a technique is valid according to a light contact system and if: a. executed correctly. b. dynamic, that is to say it is delivered with strength, purpose, speed and precision. c. controlled on the target.
ITF sparring is now essentially full contact at national level and upward. Groups that are ITF style (especially in the UK such as the TAGB) have tried to maintain semi-contact and enforce this far more. Ironically, watching the recent WTF Grand Prix and World Champs, the contact level has definitely decreased and you are not seeing as many outright full-power kicks to either the body or head. EBP has definitely changed the game in terms of scoring the points. Chung Kuk Hyun openly said this in an interview with the TKD newszine, MasTaekwondo. I agree, even as recently as 2002, WTF was full power but I dont agree with the comment about damage,
tomatito1981 ITF sparring so far is officially light contact. I have not yet seen an official ITF world rules book or whatever mention anything about allowing knockouts yet. I am sure some fringe ITF groups are doing it but it is not actually an official thing yet. But if you say its heading that way we will see and I think that will be interesting. Also I wish ITF would allow hook and upercuts, bc watching straight punches is kind of boring. Also the no leg kicking is going to stay similar to WTF. You are right, even if WTF is officially full contact with knockouts, it does not happen as much as it did,. I do agree with eletronic scoring changing the game. In my opinion it makes is weaker and annoying. Much how fencing is one of the most boring sports to watch now. early 90's WTF Taekwondo was pretty hardcore and more aggressive. Now peoople are sported their ways to victory gaming the system. Wish we could find a Taekwondo sport org that allows more kickboxing type rules with low kicks too.
Meanwhile, the WTF videos get millions of views.

ITF or WTF both are best....
Yeah wtf
Punches aren't even allowed in wtf, thats the worst part. Itf is better in my opinion
@@mellosniper6993 I mean they're to the body actually but still

It's definitely worth it do it!! The age doesn't matter
As a 23 year old itf practitioner I assure you that it will be fun
Mate a genuine thank you. I left TKD after 5 years and becoming a black belt a junior world champ. Looking back I now have no clue why.. your video was one things that’s made me want to come back.
Im glad to hear that. Keep going :) Its never late ;)
2:07 wonderful knockout. What an ability to feint !
Thats sexy man
Agree, that is my favourite one!
Master piece 🙂
ITF Taekwondo should be an olympic sport instead of WTF.
but it can´t be ITF TKD it´s a marcial art is not comercial
Super Nova Why? Its same as WTF and you can fight in WTF tournaments as ITF practitioner.
TrueShadowMaster yea but wtf is more of a sport taekwondo then itf

2:05 was pretty amazing, reminds of Hwoarang
Hahah, yup Hworang was my favourite in Tekken 3 !

1:46 - 2:08 that style xD
I Go to I.T.F and my gradings was today, I was Promoted to Green Stripe :D
My Pattern was Dan Gun Named after the Holy Founder of Korea.

Today 25th Feb 2021. You're still doing tkd? 😊
The self defense is so cool.

As a WT practitioner I must say that ITF is tough and really cool
1:58 such a boss set up I hand my hands over my mouth after seeing this
Thats just sport fighting. The street part is much harder. I think ITF TKD is realy great. But students need great Masters. Masters they folloving the way of Choi Hong Hi!! I make videos to show people the real Taekwondo. Whit ITF TKD can a student defend her self. Its not just a sport. Its hard! Thats the message :)
It's really not
God the last one is brutal. He didn't even give the guy a chance to set his helmet correctly.
People who think TKD is like the wtf style in the olympics. Let met tell you, when you get a fighter from ITF Taekwondo who has knowledge of hands can more than hold his own in kb
I took 1:dan 2007 and I still breathe taekwondo it is a way of life🙏
Mikael Dabrowski Congrats! I’m 13 and recently got my white belt. Excited for the future belts.
Mikael Dabrowski Också från Sverige 😂
1:46 to 2:10 best fight. Visually brilliant and that feint... holy shit that was good! :D
right?

It would be cool if there was a full contact ruleset, althought you see knockouts like this sometimes.
Only thing with this art is after attack they expose themselves far too long unable to recovery with speed. Other than that cool stuff! Tkd4life!

TKD ITF forever.
Can you give the source for 1:47, please? Or any hint, like what's the event or competitor names?
El twd es impresionante por su velocidad fuerza y precisión sensillamente impresionante
super! thanks

The one that beats tkd most times is muay thai.
UGGGGGHHHHH WAI I DO WTF... :'(
Actually, the best TKD would be kicks, defensive footwork, popularity of WTF but punches, self-defense, offensive footwork of ITF.
Chiyun Lee itf got the best of both worlds
Wtf -- attack,attack,attack
Itf---- self-defence then attack
Wtf has straight punch(Just body punch)
ITF has body and head punch
But at last both were taekwondo...

I don't get it in my tkd we learn to hit gently and not to hurt them but this is the complete opposite
I’m almost 16, is it too late for me to learn itf taekwondo?
Absolutely not! My dad started at 65.
what a video, quality bit bad though
I go up against the black dragons every year ethier in maryland or connicut
Black Dragons? you must go to a fake school
I’m WTF taekwondo player and we use less punches we do more kicks
I am itf black belt
itf tkd is much like karate

En la calle son peligrosos, pero contra un boxeador con los guantes no tienen nada que hacer....
This the real TKD not that WTF bullshit
I would hate to get knocked out with a kick to the face. Their dirty foot rubbing so hard in my face I get knocked out

I think they should accept the boxing-style hand strikings just like what muay thai did, in order to develop their styles.
