What is Kudo

Brief explanation of Kudo, a Japanese Mixed Martial Art.

[@toxi87]

Hope to see more Kudo in the US!

[@ryuchanpunch3056]

You can ask the international headquarters in Japan to open a new branch in US!

[@combatsportsarchive7632]

I found out Kudo when I watched a highlight video about a Kudo legend named Kenichi Osada. That dude is a pressure monster in freestyle fighting and kickboxing. He even managed to compete against a Muay Thai pro twice in the ring. It's like a super combo of Kyokushin Karate and Judo. I've seen other Kudo fighters but Kenichi Osada is a whole different level in my opinion.

Best karate division ever.

[@packman3979]

This martial art is very practical. I can see this sport taking over Japan, the combination of judo and kyukoshin karate. A great transition from kudo to mma

[@evergreatest1731]

So it’s basically Karate and Judo mixed together 🥋 ? Awesome!

[@Doe7251]

Bjj to

[@Liquidcadmus]

I love kudo, I could only train it for a few months. In the future I hope to have the chance to train it again.

[@ryuchanpunch3056]

Please try Kudo again. More and more advanced and new techniques are born these days!

[@Liquidcadmus]

@@ryuchanpunch3056 i want to, but where i am at right now there isnt any kudo. When i move abroad again i will get back into it

[@ryuchanpunch3056]

@@Liquidcadmus I am not so sure but I hear some people from overseas visit Japan and stay in Tokyo for sometime and learn Kudo at the headquarters and offered black belt if he or she already has high level skills of other martial arts backgrounds.

Kudo is just Kyokushin Karate and Judo. Some dojos or schools mix other styles with it but that’s not what the style’s creator intended.

[@ThePhenom9x]

"Azuma's early development of a martial art was first a hybrid of Kyokushin Karate and Judo. Kyokushin was the basis, however, the regulations changed dramatically. The style would not have been limited by the boundaries of a single style but would have used techniques from different martial arts, not just the initial judo and karate mix. Later in the 1980s and 1990s, this style began to include several martial arts techniques such as boxing, muay thai, jujitsu, wrestling, and others all merged in the style of Daidojuku. Protective clothing was introduced, which allowed hand techniques to the head, and provides sufficient protection to the head during kicking techniques." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C5%ABd%C5%8D

@@ThePhenom9x Dude nobody trusts Wikipedia. You’re joking right? 🤦‍♂️🤣

[@ThePhenom9x]

@@Shadowrulzalways no need to be a dick, if you truly a kudo student you can see it has many techniques from muay thai, boxing, wrestling and jujitsu

[@Shadowrulzalways]

@@ThePhenom9x Kyokushin Karate has a lot of techniques similar to Muay Thai and boxing. In fact boxing punches are part of Kyokushin. Oyama-Sosai incorporated those into his Kyokushin when he developed it. As for Ju-Jitsu and wrestling there isn’t much of it. Judo has all those similar techniques. And I see nothing that stands out as wrestling. And JuJitsu is a possibility but Judo (at least back then) was a lot like JuJitsu before competitions banned a lot of techniques.

Formidable art martial japonais fusionnant le karaté et le judo, bravo!

[@GiovanniCaban]

Are there any Kudo schools in the USA??

[@joshuapacia6316]

Revival of old school karate fight, I think but mostly Kyokushin core

[@ryuchanpunch3056]

I think Kudo is shifting to more original style martial art these days and very different from Kyokushin style.

[@joshuapacia6316]

@@ryuchanpunch3056 yes indeed, and Kudo is more evolving as martial arts.

Kudo in my opinion is more pragmatic than Kyokushin.

[@BoxingForTheStreets]

Yes.

[@freespirit7328]

Because You Become habitual Of Taking Headshots due to The Head gear..it can develop wrong habit of Not caring about your head as much as U would do in Kyokushin fight

[@freespirit7328]

Addition of judo is a Big advantage though

[@malkasport]

It likes mma

[@marcpeschke4061]

Kyokushin mixed with Judo. Osu

[@ThePhenom9x]

Also with some muay thai, boxing, wrestling, shoot wrestling techniques

[@Shadowrulzalways]

@@ThePhenom9x That’s not really what Kudo made from dude. Some Dojo’s and factions may incorporate that. But Kudo is mainly just Kyokushin Karate and Judo. Hence the name.

[@ryuchanpunch3056]

These days, Kudo style changes a lot and very rapidly. And more and more new techniques are born and difficult to say this is a basic movement of Kudo. As Kudo has very limited rules in competition, the all Japan tournament and the world tournament are like a showroom of new styles.

[@Josh-dr9db]

Where in Japan are you based ?

[@ryuchanpunch3056]

Mid Tokyo
