I think the most legendary ones were Tyson (he would need to get out of prison) and Karelin but it's rather obvious that Tyson would lose due to lack of grappling skills. Karelin would be more serious threat to the Gracies because he would toss them around easily but Idk if he would be able to actually end the fight.

Was ground and pound allowed? If so, Karelin, would just throw people on their stomach, sit on them, and punch head. Though I suspect Karelin's success is mostly due to nobody giving a crap about greco, and russians pumping him full of steroids when everyone else in his weight class was just a fatass.

Most martial arts technique is useless in MMA or no rules fighting. Most wrestling grips, judo, bjj techniques go out the window

It becomes 99% of the time the most simple boxing/kickboxing and the simplest takedowns and submissions

A thread to discuss Japanese weapon based martial arts and our own martial journey with like minded people, discussion of other Asian systems is welcomed too.

>what is kendo?
Kendo is a modern Japanese budō that uses shinai (bamboo sword) and armor for combat, in its modern purpose is a way to strengthen body and spirit and develop character.

>is kendo a martial art?
Kinda

>what do I need to start kendo?
A shirt and sweat pants your club will likely borrow you the rest when you start

>what is iaido?
Is a Japanese martial art, influenced by zen practices based on different kata (drills) and subdivided in different schools with solo drills based on drawing the sword from the scabbard to defend from an imaginary opponent.

>what is kenjutsu?

It is extemely niche even in Japan.
My understanding is that tankendo and jukendo were created solely as modern military arts, they don’t carry the same cultural significance as kendo does for the Japanese.

As Japan rapidly modernized/militarized they thought maybe there was still some value in their traditional martial arts for use in modern training. Both arts were essentially invented as bayonet drills, taking inspiration and direction from traditional techniques.

I believe post-WW2 tankendo was whitewashed into being about the short sword, which makes it more palatable. But originally it was really meant for training the bayonet. Jukendo is still practiced by the JSDF. It’s only relatively recently that they have been able to be rehabilitated somewhat because it’s very hard to detach them from their militarist roots.

MLB guy has considerable advantages in reach, mass, nutrition, pharmacology, etc., average jap back in samurai times was tiny enough the Chinese called them "dwarf bandits."

>>271151
The MLB guy is definitely going to be tough and athletic but samurai were very skilled martial artists weren't they? is being small enough of an issue that that alone would be what decides it, or was the skill of a samurai exaggerated and/or memed to seem like it's more than it really was?

you could argue that you cannot realistically defend yourself, evade or deescalate the situation with your own physical power and with CS spray and must use lethal methods to neutralize the danger that is headed to murder you
I always carry CS spray since I don't have to call the police, or at least that's what I know; I wouldn't call them anyway because the legal haslle is not worth jailing some retard for only 3 months to then later actively target me for "taking away his liberties", unless it was a mugging/murder attempt and not some roided up retard that didn't get his dino nuggets becoming physically aggressive because his girlfriend mommy wasn't present to control him like a doberman.

perfect place to post it.

Does anyone skate Roces 5th elements boots? Thoughts on them? Thinking I want to mount these for my next aggressive quad skate.
>>
>>271855
How will you mount quad trucks to that?
>>
>>271890
Basically you just remove the inline plate, drill holes, and attach using the proper hardware for your specific quad plate/boot.

I’m getting my plates and grind blocks from Brunny Hardcore, so my intention was to dropship the skates and let them get to work.

What are the primary differences between Japanese and Okinawan karate?

Or you roundhouse kick their knee or calf and drop them in one shot.
>>
>>251636
The roundhouse to the leg is one of the most effective strikes ever invented and 90% of people you hit by it who don't train any sort of fighting don't have a way to respond to it.
>>
Japanese Karate (of one branch specifically) has produced decent competitive fighters whereas Okinawan Karate hasn't and is largely just a marketing gimmick at this point.
Just do Kyokushin or some style that comes from it. There are only two regions in the world that reliably produce high level fighters with a Karate background, those being eastern Europe and Japan. In both of these places, the only Karate style that is taken seriously is Kyokushin. That is all you need to know about this topic.

what do practitioners of okinawan karate think of practitioners of kyokushin karate?

The more fake fighting, pedo-ring creating and gay sex having (and not even German or Nordic) wrestlers are dead the better.

I box. Today is light sparring day. Instructor tells us to go at max speed but 10% power. I have no idea what I am supposed to do during this sparring. If I go at max speed, my punches will have power, especially if they land. I'm a 120kg bodybuilder fuck, so if I catch someone with a light but fast hook, they WILL feel it. Doubly so if they walk into it. It's even worse because we're supposed to do 3 rounds, then change partners, so what's fast/hard changes. Help me out here.

Explain to your instructor that force equals mass times acceleration so it's physically impossible to go 100% speed without also going 100% power.

I did boxing for three years back in the day and also struggle with this concept. I can maybe see how one could do 100% speed and 70-80% power, but not 10%. That would mean stopping your punch before impact, which is straining on shoulders. Could be interpreted as «only jabs» or something idk. But a right hook with 100% speed is absolutely gonna be felt. Maybe just stick with jabs and bodyshots. But again, its «light sparring» so i would assume it means only jabs and light touches but as fast as you can

Well I acquired a couple red dragon nylon arming swords. Way too fucking lon in the blade and the grip. There is a mold line where the blade meets the tang, from that mark I shortened the grip to 3.5" and the blade to 30". Way nicer now, though of course more stiff in the thrust. But I will be using these to learn Cassani style cutting from the youtube channel Tsurukiri, which is pretty much only cutting.
