@honigdachs.5 ай бұрын
Not really surprising though. The number of karate fighters who transition to professional combat sports was always gonna be limited because there are well-established, technically deep competition circuits for that, and people mostly stick to it. The same goes for judoka, boxers or sanda practitioners, even sambists to some extent. You'll always see a comparably lower number of people from those sports transitioning to MMA or something comparable. BJJ is the obvious exception because BJJs global expansion was always tied to vale tudo and the creation of the UFC, however, in modern sports BJJ you also see fewer and fewer people getting interersted in adapting their style to MMA and full contact combat sports.

the ruleset defines what "style" is going to work best, people put way too much thought into trying to make these comparisons. Muay Thai works really well if you can't be taken down or hip tossed i.e. MT rules. Karate is better for applications that benefit from a wider stance and give you room to back away quickly. Either way, the rules will dictate what techniques and tactics will work the best, secondary to the skill of the athlete.

I genuinely believe the organization needs to sit down and solidify its ruleset for everyone. With so many special scenarios for matches, I must admit that it’s hard to watch the fights without constantly questioning if said technique was allowed mid-match or not. For sure the biggest discrepancy for me is what EXACTLY warrants a stand-up from the ground. The 2nd fight definitely shows that inconsistency when the ref allowed the ground-and-pound for much longer compared to the other matches.

It's interesting how much the pit & ruleset favor the high mobility of the karate fighters. Muay Thai has the ring and the "don't back up" scoring system.

@waterlegend72 I'm saying Karate as in the style. Karateka's these days generally don't train takedowns at a competitive level. Why are you bringing up kickboxing events? Muay Thai guys generally destroy karate guys, yes, but bring takedowns back, and it becomes much more even. If a Muay thai guy does takedowns, that is unambiguously not Muay Thai. Muay thai guys are bad against takedowns. Muay thai does not train against takedowns. Karate is a massive umbrella term of styles and sports, and some branches include takedowns. So a karateka doing a takedown may be from karate. There is a bit of unevenness here. Take an elbow away, and it is no longer Muay Thai. Take away takedows, and it's may or may now be karate anymore because, again, karate is a large umbrella term. Again, refer to old footage of karate guys taking down Muay Thai guys. Takedowns make a difference.

Overall, the idea of combat karate is great. But some of the rules of Karate Kombat are ridiculous. Why are low kicks allowed only in these fights? Because Muay Thai fighters are represented here? Then low kick should be allowed for representatives of such karate styles as Kyokushin, Ashihara, etc. Otherwise it won't be fair. These rules are made for the convenience of styles like Shotokan karate and similar point fighting styles. The pit was invented to make it more convenient to avoid direct confrontation in a fight, which turns fights into catch-ups and jumps. And of course, the terrible design of the pants)

Who do you bring to Muay Thai? Professional Muay Thai boxers are comfortable with their knee kicks.
“Making some concessions by not being allowed to use elbows” is extremely misleading. That’s like 20% of that total rule differences between Muay Thai and KC. These matches are rarely compelling, because you take one guy, neuter his style, and pin him against someone whose profession aligns precisely with the fight rules. Only exceptions I’ve ever seen to this are boxers who start doing karate and enter amateur tournaments. They can seriously outscore their opponents with jabs and footwork.

I want to know how in all hells that split decision went to Souza? Running away the whole fight, barely striking and then stumbling away with hands down and zero gas in the tank. Then the ground and pound with no reset for like 15 seconds. Karate combat seems rigged. At least in these fights, to me, it seems the Karate guys are good at exactly two things. 1: Moving backwards, and 2: Lucking into a fall on top of their opponent and then ground and pounnding. gg Georges St-Pierre is either blind, watching the wrong fights, delusional or in on the grift. He keeps calling the rounds for the Karate guys who walk backwards and miss all the shots. Guess thats what scores in KC. But it makes sense i guess, the tokens or whatever that shit is decides the favorite and kc don't want to upset the fans so they give the favorite a handicap based on the tokens received, i bet its like that. A grift. Also, the fact that it went to a sudden death round, in the raymond daniels fight is crazy, Farrel was dominating the whole fight.
