what does this mean here
It's mean no-gi Judo is the best martial art.
>>188223I'm gonna pay more attention to satoshi ishii
>>188222It's a garbage chart. They had Machida listed as a BJJ guy when he literally came from karate competitions and walked to the cage in a street fighter gi.
>>188227guess we're going to ignore GSP as well too
It means the American fighters did wrestling as a school sports activity
>>188222That being good at holding someone on the ground is very useful for scoring TKOs
>>188222You see these people in sport karate, they don't give a shit about being "real fighters", from kids to theirs 60 years old instructors, there is even a japanese guy that lost all of his teeth because he don't knows that mouthpieces exists, nobody of them cares about the UFC, they just want to have fun.
>>188457>lost all teeth in karateHow did he do it?
>>188458they just don't really have good dental care in japan, lots of soft foods and smoking
>>188458It's a point-based fight but without gloves and sometimes they kinda go full-contact (just the japanese black belts), their face punches can't be compared to the average punches of boxers but since they don't wear a mouthpiece they lost their teeth easily.
>>188463Karate punch adds in a lot of force from the speed and the straight line approach and pulling back the other shoulder, shooting from the hip giving it more reach and depth to the strike, one can easily knock out teeth if it lands square on the mouth with even little training.
Boxing is the one least favored "style" by the ruleset, yet it's the most popular striking style of champions...Really makes you think.Maybe it's cause in a fight, regardless of context, something that matters even more than technical floritures is the wit of the fight and distance management.
>>188505Or like wrestling it's just by far the most accessible striking base in the US. And works well enoughAnything with gloves is favoring strikers
>>188230tbf gsp is more of a wrestler
>>188507KOTS proves without gloves boxing is still king
>>188505Nobody uses boxing in the UFC. They use punches.
>>190027The boxes would probably fall apart I bet
>>190001He was a dan-holding Kyo black belt before he ever startes wrestle.
>>190025KOTS doesn't "prove" anything
>>188505How do you mean boxing is unfavored when they use gloves and handwraps?
>>188222>karate>no Bas Rutten>no GSP>no Lyoto>no IcemanWhoever made this chart hasn’t watched a fight before 2019.
