Sorry, but I live in China, and youtube is blocked, and can only be gotten thru to via a cumbersome proxy.

Very sorry for the accidental repeat post! Will do my best to avoid them in the future. Thanks.

A very nice performance of classical Naginata Kata. Normally it's done much quicker, here shows the demo speed. http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMTQ2ODQzMzAw.html

A very credible performance of Bassai Dai by a young kid. Wow. http://video.sina.com.cn/v/b/29476924-1296067565.html

Beautiful clip of Iaido technique. http://www.tudou.com/programs/view/EtgJ1jpbWLU

If your knees are sour, I suggest sugar.

That was so gross, I wish I had not read it...

Welcome to MT. And as for being a "lowly green belt" - we all kick beneath the sky.

Willie Williams was one of the great Kyokushin fighters from that period. Thanks for the info. Osu!

A real nasty brawl between the wrestler Antonio Inoki and Kyokushin fighter Willie Williams. I don't know the date or even who won - but Lord, what a brawl! www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0B1mugcGO4

I have no doubt this was largely an "exhibition", but these guys were skillful, and dangerous fighters. It should be further remarked that Inoki was a VERY dirty fighter if provoked (see, for example, his bout with the American kickboxer Everett Eddy). Anyway, enjoyable to watch these two...

I compete daily against the toughest opponent anywhere - myself. I can't claim any great success rate in these bouts, but I keep at it. One of us is going to wear down or change - sooner or later.

An informative article! Of course, all those who have simply jumped on board the current MA craze train (MMA), don't want to hear a word of it. And won't.
