Now I'm not saying that it's the most efficient Martial Art or anything but it's an exaggeration to say it is useless.
*facepalm*The very nature of this thread is for nothing other than shit talking. If you think this is a serious matter you need take a strong look at your perception of the word.

Seriously, dude... you and Chino ought to just get together and hump it out. Your pent-up animal desire has clogged your sarcasm detector.
I agree. I've seen the video before and I love the setup. Let's break down the KO.
1 - He does a flying kick to back his opponent into the corner. The opponent has to be in the corner or else the KO setup won't work.
2 - His opponent is now cautious at long range after seeing the flying kick. This gives the Cappa guy enough room to do two spinning kicks. He purposely misses the first one and tricks his opponent into lower his hands. The second kick comes out and KO's his opponent.

African slaves in Brazil performed it like a dance to deceive people into thinking it was just a dance when it was really more like a sparring session and then used it for real in slave revolts. It became illegal to practice Capoeira in Brazil because people were kicking ass with it for real.
The further you lean away from the kick the less leverage it has. Don't believe me? Try it on the heavy bag. Leaning into the kick always has more power. The head whip does help to generate momentum, but ultimately doesn't make up for the lack of bodyweight behind it.
The correct answer is Yellow Bamboo.
Google it. You will not be disappoint.
Yes, throwing your bodyweight into a kick adds power. Now try to kick a person's head leaning into it. It's impossible. You have to lean back to maintain balance and a defensive posture as you exit.
