Highlights of the Men's Taekwondo -58kg Bronze Medal Finals during the London 2012 Olympic Games.
Taekwondo is a traditional Korean martial art, which means "the way of kicking and punching". In taekwondo, hands and feet can be used to overcome an opponent, but the trademark of the sport is its combination of kick movements. Taekwondo is one of the two Asian martial arts included on the Olympic programme. Taekwondo made its debut as a demonstration Olympic sport at the 1988 Seoul Games, and became an official medal sport at the 2000 Sydney Games.

good job

[@jorgeespinoza6438]

Si mi deporte favorito mi peso era ese cuando lo pratigue mucho tiempo en sagua la grande.

[@DaniGCI]

What do they use when those guys are hurt?

[@shockdemon1]

Great job with safwan Ali, I understand that all the extreme pressure affected safwan but at the same time safwan dieted too much too make weight which made him a lot weaker.

[@fernandochuy4657]

Creí que por que era ruso, el brother iba a dar buena pelea

[@danielaclark8405]

[@danielaclark8405]

[@jackNight09]

wow

[@alikhalil2385]

So i,m guessing the way you guys are talking you have also been to the Olympic games???? And fought under the extreme pressure??

[@anonymousr1918]

Spitting facts Coach Ali!

[@connorjwelton]

Jeez Australia vs Russia was extremely lame. I hate to say that but really. Neither fighter yelled, neither really seemed to be worked especially hard. They were just kind of cruising through. And Australia went three rounds only using his front leg and only tried something else like twice.

[@fernandochuy4657]

26:20 que mal 😢

[@camilo0411]

Mal por qué?

[@huseinshahab1413]

masyallah

[@fernandochuy4657]

24:55 A HU3333333V000000!!!!

[@nickisteffivivi]

that noice "au" sounds funnyhowever like it

[@GabrielPereira-uy5mw]

essa luta foi sem graça

[@metalkingbeast6]

The Australian had to diet down from -63 kg, plus he was apparently extraordinarily tired from a full day of fighting. You can see he is barely coping with just staying in the round, the Russian took advantage of that just by cutting in some easy points.

[@edwinllanosg.2495]

I ♥ COLOMBIA

[@connorjwelton]

Hmm I can see that. But he still should have switched it up because obviously what he was doing was not working...

[@riekam821]

Como cambió el combate de el Taekwondo, me da pena ver esas técnicas tan pobres, nada como la vieja escuela, esperemos que en Río 2016 nos sorprendan :)

[@abimaelsantiago9489]

Pues te quedaste con las ganas porque en Rio de Janeiro fue todavía más aburrido, y para Tokio 2020 agárrate!!!! Que nos pueden sorprender con más aburrición, para muestra el mundial de 2017 y este veremos qué tal.

[@rjanjasund5998]

No real problem with taekwondo, but why not keep a guard. It's much harder to score on someone that make efort in covering themselves.

[@utubesei]

Olympic taekwondo has become very boring, lack the technical aspect of fighting because it limits to very few kicks. the sensitivity of the protective gear makes fighter just want to touch. bring back old taekwondo rules.

[@hasankaya6039]

Cok kötü çok.

[@MegaRyu23]

That is Olympic Taekwondo/watch?v=AETXVbQBue8

[@smalz4895]

That's not tkd ....

[@whisperingwind7]

both match r lame.

[@jahigains9201]

Those were some weak points scored. Servet Tazegul is a weight class above, seems faster than both these guys, and scores hard shots. Maybe it's not fair to compare them to that monster though.

[@ireapz96]

Your mistaken this is -58 kg flyweight one above this is -63 kg bantam weight then -68 kg featherweight -68 kg is Servet Tazegul get your facts straight

[@jahigains9201]

miguelriostkd Thank you for giving my point more validity.

[@blackxsheep31]

ABURRIDO

[@fernandochuy4657]

La entiendo

[@fernandochuy4657]

Al menos nos quitamos el mal sabor de boca con el segundo combate
