Whats paralympic about them?

[@karebu2]

they are blind. and yes, blind players are as good.

[@Staatssicherheit]

So why paralympics??? They should compete with the best? Like if they can match their skills?

[@karebu2]

They are the best of their categories. I'm pretty sure most of them are holding dans. I don't know but I do reckon that they are no lesser than sighted players.

this event is meant for the blind. the main diference is that they fight on a textured mat. and prior to the match the ref will put the fighters into a pre bind before starting the match.
