BOOM! HEADSHOT!

A friend sent me this. It is a sweet kick...

Knocked Out With A Tornado Kick

It is good to see university level MA.

Maybe they will start some MMA at that level...

I am just amazed that the guy got up and tried to walk. Also, the guy in blue-and-white is a black belt, while the guy being KO'ed is a brown belt. I could be wrong, but I think that a brown is two or three below black--or is one below? I forget, but the guy in blue is clearly more skilled.

Also, listen to that impact! That is a hard kick to the head.

As my friend said when he got up after being KO'ed: "Hijo de puta!"

It's Olympic Taekwondo fighting. This year's collegiates were in Boston. The kick thrown is a nadabahn or a turning roundhouse kick. Oh, and brown belt is one below black in Taekwondo.

Yeah? Cool. I wasn't quite sure which MA they were doing. I have not kept up with any of that in a long time. Thanks for clearing that up. Whatever you call that kick, it was sweet.

Unless you have a online DVD dealer, you can't watch the world games or US, Europe or Korea championships. They do give a decent chunk of airwaves during the Olympics. Baiscally Taekwondo is kickboxing with all the focus on kicks.

i used to be in TKD i think it would be more effective if they had a better guard like kickboxing stance or something. NICE KNOCKOUT

now that was some kewl lookin moves..... kicking with teh front of teh foot like that would have less impact then a shin connection though, i am surprised that the guy got up... i mean withough gear that guy would have been toasted. Tae kwon do is a kewl MA buit is all feet. my buddy is brown belt in it and he couldn't throw a punch to save his life. but he is one of the few that can kick a smoke out of your mouth.
