Karate Kyokushin vs Kickboxing Muay Thai

[@nvanguy6868]

This is the proper spirit of kyokushin, they should still be challenging other schools Like in the old days.

[@psychedashell]

Challenging other schools has simply changed, walking in and declaring them all too wimpy to accept your challenge will get the cops called on you and every gym you can be associated with sued.

My Muay thai coach once told me an interesting story about Kyokishin fighters, the man who invented the style sent 3 of his fighters to face off against the thai's, 2 out of the 3 actually won (admittedly they were permitted to use elements of judo which helped them greatly in the clinch) point being Muay Thai practitioners should always hold respect for Kyokishin fighters for the punishment they can both dish out and as absorb.

The thai fighter was using an aggressive defense, baiting mid kicks out from the karate guy only to block/grab them and kick the legs out from his opponent. I just love how tactful and practical muay thai is. Training it is so fun.

[@DyneTreal]

Proper utilization of the side kick would have helped this Kyokushin fighter a lot. Didn't see him use it once. Instead, he implement the front push kick against a fighter who was better at using the front push kick and was unable to maintain spacing to time his head kicks because of it. The knee lift of front push kick and side kick can both be utilized to block roundhouse kicks, but a side kick can also hook the back of the knee against an opponent's front push kick and drive passed it if you aim the blade of the foot for the same side floater rib just above the hip of the opponent's kicking leg.

true he does not know proper techniques

[@tortellinifettuccine]

mastertroso he is a amateur. I worked hard for 7 years learning kyokushin and the way he is fighting is just disappointing. We do grapple on rare occasions but yes we do not utilize elbows. But that's because we are more focused on our deadly kicks and strikes.

[@jervill1]

There are face punching when gloved. Their knockdown rules are not the only way they spar. Clubs deep in to kyokushin tournaments tend not to do elbows and grappling. But I've also trained with a kyokushin guy in the early 90s (who is the source of what i think i know of kyokushin) who could defend take downs and grapple standing up in our judo and jj sessions. Ok, zero groundwork. His sweeps and shin to shin trips/kicks were no joke on the grapple. He knew hip throws, osoto gari/gake, de ashi barai and a type of hiza guruma which was what I would describe as a shin kick under the knee together with a shoulder tug. Brutal. He learnt these in his karate club and sparred enough with it to be able to use it. I can't imagine all kyokushin losing his type of techniques and training. I have to assume that different clubs focus on different aspects.

[@teeranatschweizer4938]

It’s really hard to compare …it’s depends on how great they are in their own style.. different ways… and depends on the level of fighters. เทียบกันยาก ถ้าคู่ต่อสู้อยู่ในระดับเดียวกันก็อาจสูสี แก้เกมส์ต่างกัน มวยไทย ดุดัน รุนแรง แต่ถ้าคนชกเป็นนักมวยมือใหม่หรืออาจมีผีมือไม่มากก้ออาจดูเบาลงไป

[@sonic-bb]

well we at least know the karate guy is new. considering he's a yellow belt. thats about 3 months training.

[@shrooman768]

these two are literally beginners let's see two masters fight

[@guatemalaninsanitypepper1322]

Not beginners, but not quite adept, yellow belt is an early middle tier belt in kyokushin.

[@aznazg]

Would love to see primal kyokushin back, with grappling, throws, sweeps then taking the habit of some head punches with gloves.

[@garrettyhm9962]

4:00 that head knee attempt... Did not feel good watching that.

[@jhonnystar8897]

I think the problem with kyokushin from a Muay Thai fighter perspective is the lack of different techniques like use of clinch and clinch take downs, knees, low kicks, and punches, the karate fighter was clearly completely thrown off everytime he entered clinch, still landed a massive kick, which is also a testimony to the Muay Thai fighters resilience, dude ate it like nothing, respect to both fighters.

[@rafsanabedinrifan8967]

I should focus more on push kicks even though I am learning Shito Ryu karate. That's the lesson I learnt from this fight

[@Vision7507]

Its not about styles .... It solely depends on the person fighting with the art. (Mindset)

Utter BS. It's about utilizing the physics of the human body in the most efficient manner.

That why karate and taekwondo dont mess with muay thai fighter cause once if the muay thai fighter give you elbow, clinch, knee, lowkick and high body kick, left hook, right hook, left jab and right jab its mean theyre done cause if the karate guy fighting the lethwei fighter he'll get a headbutt

[@morijinsbrother]

what bullshit is this? those matchups you mentioned happen all the time. it still happens to this day with the rise of MMA. I've done all three and i'm telling you that's really not the case

[@mangoMango-ck3et]

Kyokushin rules,, corner flags waving,,, the rounds a draw as usual..Muay Thai won it easy.

[@itsgleneaton4883]

What these are really about is this person vs this person. For not everybody who practices the style that won can beat everyone who practices the style that lost.

[@emmanuelgarcia4728]

El luchador de Muay thai supo usar bien sus piernas, al parecer tenia piernas mas largas que el de kyokushin. Por otro lado el de kyokushin arranco bien , parecia que iba a estar mas igualada la pelea pero se quedo un poco por la buena pelea que hizo su contrincante. Veo que le falto tambien girar mas la cadera en sus patadas circulares y a veces iban un poco bajas, pero tambien asento un par de buenos golpes.

[@danirobertjacinto6886]

Como amo, cuando le dan una paliza a los engreidos karatecas, en espcial a los del Kyokushin(que se la pasan mame y mame, que su sistema es mejor que todos, mejor que el TKD, Shotokan, etc).

[@bluebagger6184]

For a yellow belt he's done alright. Cut him some slack guys. the MT fighter has some good moves too but I'd back a brown or black belt Kyokushin fighter over most MT fighters anytime

[@L2kneel]

As soon as the nak muay started doing his wai kru.. his opponent should've known it was gonna be a long night

[@skeletonfilms3650]

I bounce during sparring it is kinda helpful

[@iROChakri]

When a Kyokushin dude finds out where his style Kyukushin got influences from. Kyukushin looks more muay thai than other karate styles which emphasizes how big muay thai impacts have on Kyukushin.

Looks like a yellow belt. Seemed to do fairly well considering the amount of training he probably had. The muay thai fighter does not look like they have been in long either. Overall they both looked decent for the amount of experience

[@pichayadmitaree7521]

Karate doesn’t kick or punch, what you see is called tapping with foot and hand 😁 but Muay Thai doesn’t only kick your body but they kick your soul too 🤙

[@bondys-video-kucing]

1:55 i think that straight punch to the solar plexus did work hurting the MT guy

[@twistedpersonality]

Well, actually, if both guys were on the same skill level this fight would have looked a lot different. Kyokushin in general is a lot tankier then muay thai or even other branches of karate and if you compare power levels between the two then I would say that kyokushin is more on the explosive side and muay thai is more on the speedy side.

the karate guys fatal flaw is that hes only throwing these predictable outside kicks, while the muay thai guy knows to just throw a front kick to stuff him, and dont get me started on the footwork

Kyoshukin is a great tool when paired with boxing and adjusted a little. Rob Kaman, Ernesto Hoost and Ivan Hippolyte agrees (Mejiro Gym). (Best regards from a fighter with 8 years of Muay Thai experience.)

[@yuowatcher]

Karate doesn't answer many situations. What do you do when he grabs your head with both hands? Put bent hand between his legs lift him off the ground sitting on his groin, and throw to the ground head first or his back first. Only this is already not karate...

[@kyokushinbul]

ahh good technique! that's a really nice counter.

[@AwsomeProjects]

I C you're right Muay Thai clinch = get ready to eat knees and elbows. Most of the time you would be closing your eyes or feeling extreme pain how would u even have time to counter under the circumstances.

[@transgirltalks1140]

karate has throws, it's a misconception that karateka can not throw

[@yuowatcher]

transgirltalks Wow, karate has throwing techniques! Karateka can throw, and can escape grabs, that is true. But I never have seen any of what I would call Judo techniques in karate training. How could I miss them!? In my opinion, karate and judo are together covering most of the things one would need in hand combat, but each of them on its own is missing important thing the other one has.

waste of 7mins ... both ammature fighters . pathetic footwork. not moving 45degrees . weak kicking techniques . as a kyokushin fighter he should atleast perfect he's mawashi. he's bouncing around like a semi contact fighter not standing his ground like a knockdown fighter . no combinations . he's thinking what to do next. however at a yellow belt level I'd give the kid some grace. he's got a lot to learn.

Luckily for the kyokushin guy the referee was there to break the clinch just when his face was about to be rearranged. This would be the outcome of most bouts against Thai boxers if they were allowed to compete without the usual restrictions.
