In some moments one guy kicks the other (and hard) and they go on, and on basically similar actions they are stopped. If there is a point or warning they stop the match.

After Horne's injury I might be inclined to agree to that. A showcase for Karate that is also different from other combat sports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That actually describes what I appreciate about kata pretty well - it's very different from anything else at the Olympics and it's the most pure form of marital arts competition.

NearPup 2,164 Posted August 7, 2021 #67 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Lol kumite is ridiculous. What a sad way to end your time as an Olympic sport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
