[PaddyO'malley]

yeah ok lets see wen di opps win di coin toss an' him nuh have di option fi move oot di way wut finna happen den

Mi glad di yute found him place inna di combat sports world but guarantee bro nuh last 3 scraps pon di #PowerSlap stage

 

[snugglecakes]

Some of the fights are pretty good, it's like MMA but with less grappling but still a little bit of GnP unlike Muay Thai

This fight was an extra stupid can crushing though

and if they put him against the top heavyweight they have... it'll still be a can crushing

Why are so many people hating on Karate Combat? Is it just because of the commentary? Because all I've seen are consistent highlight reel KOs from every event

 

[FEDORFAN44]

Best place and rule set for him.losing to lane showed he will never sniff a championship in ufc

I like it but I think its got the same issue that BKFC does - its too close technically to another sport that has a much stronger talent pool. It kind of sours the enjoyment a little when you know the top KC guys would get their asses kicked under their own ruleset by plenty of kickboxers/MT guys and even some MMA strikers.

I watched Karate Combat once. I will never watch it again.

You can only choose to watch Karate Combat or Power Slap for the rest of your life — gun to head, which do you choose?

Tell them to pull the trigger?

I choose the gun.

Joanna is a bit unrecognizable there but she is out of competition so I guess it's only natural.

 

[Khaosan]

I choose the gun.

Big bro lost to Austin fucking Lane and now went back to beating up Puerto Rican Uber drivers

 

[Hitdepruns]

Great fight.

 

[MMAProfessional]

I mean, an overhand right was thrown by a 6'7", 265 lbs guy that landed right behind the ear. That's gonna drop most people.

Also leaving out the fact that he's a bronze medalist in Taekwondo. I'd hope he would make it easy. I'd assume he smokes everyone although they do allow brief grappling so maybe not.

 

[The_Renaissance]

Best place for him, it certainly wasn't big league MMA that's for sure.

 

[CroCopsLHK]

He's a lake a mile wide and an inch deep

I can't even name the people who beat him in ufc. He beat someone spectacularly named Parisyan who fought like an idiot

When mma rules are in place he's been broken in ufc. I'd love a new giant Kevin Randleman looking KO machine but for now he can stick to karate
