I am a traditional Karateka... honestly I think the center judge should not have given blue fighter a warning and deducted points for the strike to the face that made red fighter bleed. While you are not supposed to cause injury, there is also a warning for being reckless and endangering yourself. Red fighter charged forward with both hands down completely open. The punch was controlled, it drew blood because of the forward momentum of red fighter, not the amount of power/lack of control of blue fighter.

They don't deduct points in karate. Being a traditional karateka, you are used to having more contact during kumite. Since this is WKF, they play by WKF rules, which is just skin touch. Any more contact than that would be a foul. Though I have to agree that the momentum of the red karateka caused the injury, the blue karateka should also know how to anticipate opponent moves and pull her punches. IMO, blue was far better than the red, she only lost due to penalties.

this style is a contest of skill speed and control. please remember the martial arts are not all about hurting others. mma muppets always rag on other systems just because they beat each other up in cages. ANYONE skilled or unskilled can get in a cage throw a good punch and knock an opponent out this does not make them a martial artist!!! not every one has the skill speed and control it takes to be good at this sport. the only aspect i dont like is, Gyak stop and scream for points spoils this

[@meganbasson3999]

In my eyes the blue won. Red got lucky.

[@meditationlife9935]

reallyyy wtf is that shit game !!!! blue hit her so the red one take points !

[@wrestlerkun]

I think it's semicontact (just need to indicate, not hit), and they give penalty points when you hurt opponent.

For alle of you who is saying that the rules are stupid and bla bla bla. Maby you think this way of karate is stupid, but this is just the way some people like it. Others like it to be more contact karate and some don't even want to enter this kind og stuff because they don't like all this. And you should do the same. If you don't like the video don't watch it. If you don't like sport karate don't watch the video. You should have respect for ALL kinds of karate. No matter what! :)

[@AlvinKaraqi]

it's complicated to explain through a comment,but there are several rules in kumite that you need to hold on.Now,2013 the contact is allowed at the seniors till your opponent is not seriously injuried or if there's not blood.controll over your punches and kicks is very important,you need to have a very clear technique to get a point,good distance,speed,good tactic and good reaction.Before Karate was more like JUST FIGHTING,who's faster or stronger wins,now it's more than that.SMARTER than before

[@wrestlerkun]

What a stupid rules.
