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.
>>268850Clueless
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.
>>268868im not talking about sustained competitiononly a gauntlet with people picked out of timefor one tournament
>>268979Karelin couldn't even do 1 real MMA fight it had to be a staged fight He's a wrestler, 1 leg kick and he's limping and crying
>>261875>this leg attack is fake because im flexible enough to take itIs this guy retarded? 90% of people would cry with that move
Most martial arts technique is useless in MMA or no rules fighting. Most wrestling grips, judo, bjj techniques go out the windowIt becomes 99% of the time the most simple boxing/kickboxing and the simplest takedowns and submissions

A large athletic man with 3 months of boxing/wrestling will destroy the average martial artist every time.

>>255676It 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.
who do you think would be scarier, an MLB hitter with a katana or a samurai with an MLB regulation bat
>>271120MLB 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."
>>271151The 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?

I bought the game but haven't played it yet, looks great and is only just over 1gb in size which is crazy. looking forward to what they add. hoping a lot of other anons get it and give feedback to the dev. we've desperately needed a good blading game for years now, everything else fizzled out or the ambition with realism and/or branding was too high (*cough cough* on a roll). this has already had a bunch of updates.
Does anyone skate Roces 5th elements boots? Thoughts on them? Thinking I want to mount these for my next aggressive quad skate.
>>271855How will you mount quad trucks to that?
>>271890Basically 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. >Last 2 pics are by them.

What are the primary differences between Japanese and Okinawan karate?
>>251636Or you roundhouse kick their knee or calf and drop them in one shot.
>>251636The 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?I just have a gut feeling that okinawan karatekas think kyokushin is for barbarians
>>271816fear, probably

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.
>>267519nah he is pretty good and gets people to win comps
>>267449yeah the "dude only x%" approach is retardedits already retarded but especially really low numbers too.
10% is just touching basically
>>267449Explain to your instructor that force equals mass times acceleration so it's physically impossible to go 100% speed without also going 100% power.
>>267449I 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.
How do you fight with an egyptian Khopesh?
Made up a foam to match the modified red dragon, not bad I guess. Definitely want a mask to go medium force or higher
