Best fight I've seen in a while. Very close calls.

[@stevengargoyle]

1- I don't know who is this guys but, Justin won the fight. 2- why there is so many people interfering with the fight? 3- people are too close in the ring.

[@Nekolous]

Roshi Seikizen Rodriguez in point sparring, people can make objections.

[@pandachong7942]

People can make objections and them being close allows coaching

[@jamisondale7419]

I love watching this fight!

[@user-yn3zl1fd4k]

That was a battle! Nice fight!

[@bovvlad1]

Awesome!

[@DONTHATETHEPLAYA321]

I've been in the ring with the both fighters and the Center ref

[@amberharmsen2497]

Litterally the best point fighters out there

[@alfonsopena4421]

Is there no weight division in this sport?

[@colinlonsdale584]

It's height, but I don't know wtf happened here.

[@albertreyes9870]

I like the way the camera man gets excited and speeds up he's 📷 camera .😘😋😁😆.

[@congojr1]

man.... hella points was given to Justin. thats not to diminish his skills or anything. but he was given hella points. it was christmas in atlanta early because he was receiving gifts! but Raymond put him down like ole yella.

[@drae408]

They gave Justin points that he did not get but good fight.

[@stopinterviewingstartselli4881]

I don't get why people get so worked up on the sideline. They should not be able to call timeout or ask the judges questions while the fight is happening.

[@camerongoodenow7143]

thats not a person on the sidelined thats their coach

[@danawhite1177]

I would rather watch sport karate than any other combat sport.

[@richardantonio2894]

While I'm not a fan of this style of sparring, the guy in white won a while earlier. I feel the tall one Raymond had a height advantage, but I feel wasn't taking the fight seriously due to that.

[@tutorialesm4m3rt0s4]

The Truth these judges marked him when not Jostin!

[@BazoomDZN]

The ref in this is sooo bad. He gave a 2 or 3 2* points to Justin that 1 missed the head and other 2 were body hits..

[@Serve3000]

Justin won in regulation honestly. Then they missed 2 kicks in OT.

[@dragoneterno31]

Justin won

[@robinlopez3465]

I think Justin won this fight !

[@shinyong9978]

Mr Daniel's had big reach advantage . great sportmantship from both gentleman's

[@darrellwilliams1991]

This is nothing but a glorified game of tag. And before anyone comments, I used to be a point fighter for years. Most of the techniques are so weak they shouldn't even be considered punches or kicks. LOL Don't get me wrong Raymond Daniels is an excellent fighter but he def gets a little help in the ring sometimes. I prefer continuous sparring

[@colinlonsdale584]

Daniels? Help in the ring?

[@felipe_sousa97]

In my opinion still better than WKF Karate sparring, but it's really weird how theses guys throw their punches, I think there should be a rule demanding more technical accuracy, like the old Olympic boxing rules, but again, I think it still better than the WKF karate, Wonderboy, Raymond Daniels and Sage Northcutt are amazing fighters with point fighting background

[@jedidiahlawton2149]

classic point system. but y is the tall guy so cold

[@BlackRaven156]

I think Raymond is just very focused on winning and doesn't want to give Justin an inch. I'm sure it's nothing personal. Both superb fighters!

[@pandachong7942]

Height isn't a lot of an advantage, the smaller you are the faster you will be, which means better hands and spinning hooks, the taller people have a lot of leg reach over you though. Therefore the fight is even so if you lose and you blame it cause he's taller than you, your wrong.

[@Azami0001]

Thats a bit of a stereotype. If this were MMA it would be completely different.

[@Patriot1790]

Just because someone is shorter, does not make them quicker by default. Someone who is tall and is a good kicker will destroy someone with significant less reach. Unless they are much quicker, or can get to the inside to take away the advantage of the reach.

[@MegaYounglover]

One word (bias)

[@MichaelBrown-zi7mj]

politics bullshit justin wins

[@AjayTrooper101]

Michael Brown Did you see raymond vs willie hicks in the kumite 2015? Raymond said after he lost that willie should meet him in the parking lot and see how to really fight. Raymond has too much ego for himself and almost all of the judges are one sided towards Raymond. But all of that aside this was poor judging and Justin won but sisnt get any good calls.

[@sheyshah2848]

yawn...why I hate fencing.

[@briansmad1]

Point fighting is silly

[@user-et7sq8jd8d]

Ummm... no its not😂😂

[@franciscobaez4495]

Come try it to see if is silly 👍

[@acerycam3798]

I used to compete in these tournaments and yes, it is plain stupid!!!

[@colinlonsdale584]

Yeah, it's a farcry from continuous. But it isn't "silly".

[@jonavonjones4492]

@@acerycam3798 you would get knocked out by all of these fighters

[@julioramos5615]

Is this what sport karate has become im from the 60s and 70s there were great fighter then.they had great technics kicks and punches i think mix martial arts mess everything they dont give time to learn the basics in one style before jumping to another style their kicks are horrible no wonder tennis made it big time and sport karate didn't.

[@mikedager7522]

This is awful

[@brandonbaird6925]

That was a total circus. Please stop associating this stuff with karate or martial arts.

[@thomash8501]

What slop
