Hs anyone done the 100 man kumite in karate

I would like to know as I heard you have 2 get 51 wins or something like that, so how is a win , loss and draw decided b4 another steps in.

 

That is actually a really good question. I am interested as well.

 

Here's a link with some information.

Thanks for the link Soulfly. Interesting read for sure.

 

haven't like only five people done this so far and gotten through it?

 

excuse me, fifteen.

 

wasnt there this K1 fighter who claimed he did the 100 man kumate, then got knocked out in his match. Whats the point of fighting 100 cans?

 

The point is that 99% of people fighting in K1 and K1 MAX could not do it.

It's an endurance test, a toughness test and a test of the will.

Most people who finish the 50 man kumite (let alone 100) go straight to the hospital and stay there for a while.

Not everything in martial arts is about fighting in K1.

 

Francisco Filho. I saw him beat a guy up too... I can say both those things of most fighters.

Filo has beaten Remmy, mike bernardo, Iggy, leko, hoost, and aerts. That's one impressive recrod in K-1.

 

Damn, sounds tough to me

 

kumite... didn't van damme do that in one of his movies? lol

 

Was he got knocked out in his match like once or twice (Bernardo... should it be
considered as a KO?)

But he knocked so many people out as well and beat so many top K-1 fighters
and he himself is considered as a top fighter.

He beat two grand K-1 champions in their prime (Aerts and Hoost) and other
two K-1 champions right after they won their belts (Hug, Remmy).

Also, he is the nemesis of 3X K-1 WGP Champ Aerts for giving him that shin problem
by busting it up so bad that Aerts is now constantly having shin injury after Filho
almost broke it.

He also handed 4X K-1 WGP Hoost his worst beating ever.

Doesn't that sound quiet impressive?

 

In my old Kyokushin class we me and another guy did 40 * 1 minute rounds alternating between Kyokushin style standup and wrestling against the other guys that would always circulate.

 

Thanks for the link. Good read.

Just cuz of that I want to see it LOL. Van Damme better not **** this up.
