prso1000 540 Posted August 7, 2021 #52 Share Posted August 7, 2021 This by far the most boring combat sport at olympics and not part of Olympics in 2024, what a surprise ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is my issue, too. Karate would be a lot better if they had longer bouts with less stoppages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NearPup 2,167 Posted August 7, 2021 #54 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Alright, here's a real hot take: if I had to chose between kata and kumite as Olympic disciplines, I'd pick kata. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why I don't like basketball. If there is a close battle, you just know that the final three minutes will turn into an insufferable series of time outs. orangeman 1 #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still didn't really figure out when and why they stop the bouts. In some moments one guy kicks the other (and hard) and they go on, and on basically similar actions they are stopped.
