Reference/response whatever it's still another YouTube. My reference was based on doing full contact and frequent visits to the hospital, win or lose. I know a fight when I see one.
You can have full contact competition without it being a fight.

Wait... This isn't an ITF taekwondo match. It's a Sanda match. Why would any televised taekwondo competition be held in China?

The show WMA (Wushu Masters Association) has competitors that fight against different styles. Sometimes it's Tai Chi vs another internal style, or some style vs karate, TKD vs. etc.. The creators off WMA wanted to shape their competition in response to UFC. In WMA their is no weight class and the competition is designed to showcase style and technique.

The UFC is taking over in China because it's a big money maker. Fighters can make more money being a UFC fighter than they can a traditional kung fu practitioner. WMA was an attempt to overcome the social stigma that they have about fighting. I read that many in the martial arts community see fighting in a cage as similar to having animals fights, which would probably explain the ring in WMA, which is just an open circle on a raised platform (same has some lei-tai fights).

Get you ducky. :p Perhaps the point is that to advertise your YouTube channel on here you should pay the owner instead of trying to get a freebee? What you don't actually like is opinions that don't agree with yours roflmao! :D:D:D:D:D:D
