Karate Do



I come to you with only Karate,
my empty hands,
I have no weapons.

But should I be forced to defend myself,
my principles or my honour,
should it be a matter of life or death,
right or wrong,

then here are my weapons,
Karate,
my Empty Hands.

Cage KOs 2011

Dave O Donnell shares his Top Ten KOs of 2011.

Interestingly most of these are still punches.
There is one kick, a spin backfist, and one brilliant kradot kao flying knee.

Through most of the fight clips you see very little except punches.

Mark Weir of GTI TKD, a former champion and master kicker, is KOd twice here when his kicks fail to land.

Fights that go down come back up and the punching starts again, it doesn't flow into grappling.



The message that hand range is still THE range in combat still stands.
