100-man kumite. Akira Masuda

kyokushin karate

[@Bobbythewrecker]

He fought for so long that camera's invented colour

[@MrNetsecure]

hahahha!

[@user-yo4xt6zx1h]

ここにコメントされてる方々のように、空手のこと武道のこと何も知らない者です。ヨガが好きで15年以上、毎朝、毎夜してるぐらいです。格闘技見るの、、大好きですが、空手はあまり見る機会なかったです。K1の方を好んで見てました。 最近知り合えた方にこちらの動画教えてもらい、拝見！ 最初座って視聴（テレビの画面で)してましたが、70人目ぐらいから、気づけば画面の前で立ったまま見入っていました。『本物の格闘技」を見た感じです。配信してくれて、ありがとうございました！！

[@joey6401]

The thing about 100 man kumite is that after 1 guy, you're fine. After a few, blocking starts to hurt. That's the major factor, fighting through fatigue and fighting through the fact that after a while, even protecting yourself is painful. But this is highly impressive.

[@ChPetru]

It's more about the endurance to get hit by 100 people full contact, rather than "winning" like in competition.

[@user-ko3sd9qj2h]

Yes Unless your sosai haha

[@NYKgjl10]

Respect....Respect...Respect...OSU!!!!

[@CitrusMican]

Brief translation. Today, we will start the 5th 100 men kumite. It’s a lonely fight. However, I believe that there is man’s romanticism and value in fighting. Please complete this 100 men kumite no matter what, and create the firm foundation towards the world tournament.

[@CeasareBorgiaSuX]

A tough man much respect. This is the true sign of a warrior sometimes it is not about how much punishment you dish out but how much you can take!

[@sapieninsights1139]

Well said

[@Marvtorrez]

Always i try to understand the people that focus in the negatives aspects, without understand karate is a way of life. The way to deliver the techniques and to teach, and the approach of kumite is particular for every style, and that doesnt mean is bad or wrong. Respect, respect the way others do the stuff, because when you dont understand that meaning you have to bow your head, and reconigze your ignorance, and show respect.

[@andresrestreporoldan]

I really love this way of thinking! God bless

[@nintendork9207]

This is certainly impressive, and damn, it's astounding how quickly he downed some of his opponents, his striking is fierce, that's for sure.

[@hektorccs]

La fortaleza nace en nuestro espíritu, se sintetiza con la mente y se refleja con el cuerpo... Osu!

[@matsuda203]

私が大好きだった頃の極真....最後の増田さんと水口さんの組手感動です！ 一流の選手って観る人を感動させるんですね。100人組手に挑戦するだけでも スゴイのに、完遂した増田さんは、私からみてもう神様です。水口さんも神様です。ホントに感動しました☆

[@matsuda203]

パイソンさん、おっしゃる通りです(^O^) 大山総裁の覇気やオーラは半端じゃなかったですよネ!! あの頃の極真は個性的で豪傑揃いで、ホントに強かったです。 もちろん、今も素晴らしい選手がたくさんおられます。 でも、私はこの頃の極真がメッチャ好きです(^^) 「小さな達人　堺貞夫選手」もこの時代ですよネ☆ パイソンさん、有り難うございました(^o^)／押忍！！

[@user-kd1zq8ve7g]

はなっから完遂ありきの手抜き組手で感動とか(笑)

[@wirezts]

I love the way he is quite caring for the people he has kicked in the head etc. Shows that he's not in it for the violence or competitiveness, purely as a test to himself.

[@antoncavka]

It is mesmerising to watch Masuda Akira's 100 Man Kumite.

[@vikramaLP]

Lucky people to be graded by Kancho Mas Oyama himself! Masuda one of a kind....! Oss!

[@LotteBlueJays]

He's sparring 100 people, not fighting them. He's not doing some Japanese version of Taken where he needs to kill everything with a pulse. You're specifically not supposed to go all-out in sparring. The impressive part is the ridiculous amount of stamina he displays to get through 100 sparring matches while doing something resembling martial arts at the end of it.

[@winddragonmma]

TheCheshireLion incorrect! People are getting injured here and tko'd! Even sparring when done full force is fighting!!! This is real!!!

[@FightvisionNet]

Very impressive. I know one Aussie guy who went through 100 fights kumite. I think in this competiotion you can know more about yourself, something that you didn't know before.

[@winddragonmma]

If you can defeat more than 3 fighters in a row that is great! But 100 now that is incredible!

[@mjkittredge]

Those lightning fast leg sweeps

[@wirezts]

That cute little lady standing in the background through most of this is so concerned and almost scared looking :( I just want to comfort her and tell her everything is going to be OK lol.

[@rebkhai]

Love all the jikuashi geri

[@Chemicalkinetics]

Masuda is very good. That 99th guy (46:22) was really hitting him hard and have no mercy on Masuda -- including accidentally kicked him in the balls. I know they are not supposed to go too easy on the challengers, but that guy really goes full force and full speed. If everyone goes full force like that, then I don't think anyone could have last more than 20 rounds like that.. I mean. The 100th guy obviously was holding back compared to the 99th guy.

[@aurelianspodarec2629]

Yeah, I was thinking that too lol having two fresh guys going full force at the end could result in KO xd So I guess he offbalanced by going easy on him

[@bleachno9]

I can see why he was up to the challenge, he's damn good

[@bklyncrook]

I see what you're saying. I think when they went from the description of the film, somehow, I was stuck thinking that, it was an all out fight from person 1 to 100. To this credit, it's kind of between a spar and fight due to no protective gears and they are throwing their punches and kicks pretty hard. It's not a full on fight, I don't see any direct punches to the face, kicks yes. It's more like a fight marathon of test of will. Masuda earns his respect and it's not an easy task to complete.

[@karakurt964]

Osu!!! Grand respect!

[@leonardoisidoro3224]

He made mas oyoama very proud

[@darkerforest]

Amazing.

[@admirercp]

the most serious fighter was the 99th

[@BAE51C]

id like to see ppl take a so called "tap" to their ribs and says it doesnt hurt.... and then times that by a 100....lol

[@XHVSTLEX]

Kumite means "sparring". These are not actual fights. The art of sparring is one of 3 main disciplines of the art. Sparring 100 people is a feat in itself.

[@sharadwatasengupta4227]

LokI Kross so which is actual fight

[@joshua_here5849]

@@sharadwatasengupta4227 actually fight cannot be represented through sport

[@luftwaffe789456123]

its a matter of endurance and strength,its purpose is to try and see if you can last that long and stay standing that long,remember that if you reach the 100th man then that mans you just fought 99 and the last man you are going to fight is a fresh opponent while you have been running out of oxygen hours ago.

From what I heard, his kidneys were injured and he had to stay in the hospital after that.

That’s funny, I used to do karate when I was like 7 and I learned today that my sensei, Sensei Ligo, is the 7th guy in this video 🤩

山田師範の横にいる浜井先生。迫力ある。

[@houseofaction]

its more like an endurance training but your correct its not like they are trying to actually beat him its not like in Randori where they try to actually take you to the ground

[@midsguy123]

the 100 fighters fought much more aggressively than the 100 who fought with Judd Reid

[@hmpf]

One thing I realized by watching the 100 Kumite videos is that the only men whoever passed it were substantially larger than their opponents. Masuda and looks about twice the size than the majority of the other karateka he was up against, and that gives him a HUGE advantage. Not discrediting him in any way shape or form, I just find it interesting.

[@teatea6666]

Judd Reid is short and he passed it

[@teatea6666]

Nope he is actually 170-180 cm or so

a boxer wouldn't chance bare fisted against 100 men, 2 minutes each and 1 minute to rest a piece. that's 3 hours and some change

[@kreeba5220]

Are more black belts awarded upon successful completion of the 100-men kumite?

[@winddragonmma]

Better than bruce lee sparring! He really knocking people out! This is real no gear too. 😲

[@bikrambal2620]

This is kyoshin (full contact fighting) not sparring. I am a big fan of Bruce Lee but he most likely never competed in these full contact maches. He competed in kata, board breaking and light point sparing mathces

[@gabrielecorti74]

he risked his own life this time...

Please someone translate what Oyama's saying at the beginning.

after this kumite, masuda admitted to hospital and he almost die. but he recovered.

[@imadeb4275]

[@Lee7676]

[@TywinLannister666]

Posted on one of the largest Kyokushin websites on the net; "If “Osu!” feels like an all-purpose secret word that you can use with your dojo buddies while on the phone, at the mall, when doing dishes or walking your dog - you’re not only using it horribly wrong but also promoting the kind of group-think mentality that got popular culture to the dreadful stage it’s at today." Hey, he said it, not me.

[@tbcdymond]

This is a marathon not a 100 metre dash. Go at it hammer and tongs and you'll be face-down and exhausted by the 4th fight!

[@cinimatics]

It must be weeks before you can breathe and walk normal after taking a beating like that.

[@angelolavaj4782]

Not what I anticipated. I expected a higher degree of intensity. I understand it's a test of one's self, but if it were me I would want to make my opponent(s) unable to fight, as quickly as possible. I don't know much about their tradition with the 100 man fight; I just feel that that is how I would have liked to have gone about it.

[@CKCHETSMOS]

He really has very good techniques and calm! Started from 25 people I can see that they start going very hard on him!

[@ObiWanSymbian]

and what does he say at 27:25?

[@Lee7676]

that 99th guy kicked matsuda akira groin.how come he didnt wear groin cup? matsuda akira almost died because of 100 man kumite.

I don't doubt this is EXHAUSTING AF. That being said, they should have made it a number of fights that someone could do, while going all out and being attacked all out. Could one man. even fight 15 people all out?

[@znjfl]

A boxer will be incapable of standing after the first 3 leg kicks. You think they would fight with their hands down in a fight where punching the head is allowed. You ever heard of Andy Hug? I dont think I saw too many boxers becoming prominent K1 fighters.

[@LyingPrauses]

I'm confused. What exactly were you expecting? An octagon and bikini girls?

[@DeanChinsJowGa]

tough stuff, but so many little opponents!

[@Montestuma]

Can you wear a mouth guard in tournament fights? I haven't seen guys do it... No one can say I dont have balls because im willing to fight and take an axe kick to the face, I just dont want to pay 3k to replace my teeth afterward.

[@FLMKane]

Mouth gaurds are "optional" In low level tournaments people might laugh at you though. I still wear one.

[@travissorenson9554]

Game theorist...

[@dadoparicane327]

Yeah, Gaijin goomba! Game exange!

[@LordQwert]

I mean no disrespect to the fighters, and I know I could not last through an anythingth of the kumite, but... what's the point? No one really seems like they're trying to beat him, and he's throwing out kicks like he's got to do this all day. I mean, yeah, he's got to do this all day, but the point is to be strong enough to ACTUALLY fight against a hundred eager opponents, not just play at doing so. Having watched real fights with energy to them, this comes across as a slow play.

[@RitshGamer]
