basic 1-2-3 combo, kyokushin karate style.

[shinkyoku]

Since there has been quite a few threads on kyokushin karate lately:
Here is an introduction to a basic kyokushin karate fighting combo with Kenji Midori (last pre-fracturing kyokushin world champion 1991, and now head of the Shin-kyokushin faction of kyokushin karate).

The basic punch-punch-kick combo. As Kenji Midori does it.

It's a very good combo and i'ts already a classic in kickboxing.

I love how he does NOT have his hands on his hips like traditional karate guys

The combo is really effective, hopefully one day I will be as good as kenji midori. I also like the 1-2-3 combo, where instead of a jodan mawashi geri, you use a gedan mawashi geri, I think thats really effective and applicable anywhere, I see Hajime Kazumi do it alot.

Never claimed it was unique to kyokushin.

Actually very few karate guys do. Not even point karate guys.
chambering punches at the hip is a training tool, not a fighting guard.

He only showed the jodan& chudan in this clip. in the full vid he showed the gedan too.

The clip is form the "born to be the strongest" 4DVD series. showing some 8+ hours of top level tournament fighters showing fighting adapted techniques and combos -and not a formal technique or kata anywhere.

Promo for vol 1 of the series:

Lol. it seems youtube is doing a coyright infringement cleanup. ohwell, atleast some people go to see the vid in the OP before it got canceled. That vid and the uploader got removed fast. Parts of it can be seen (so far) at the end of the promo clip in the previous post.
