[QUOTE=Heuristic;2964136]He has awesome leg dexterity and has won Kickboxing Championships in Serbia. Also fast. The only thing I dislike about him is that he kicks to knock me out. I know from simply blocking the kicks that he doesn’t hold anything back. That rubbs me the wrong concidering his level, that he shows complete disregard for safety.
He kicks like a modern K1 kickboxer. Full swing. No lead leg sidekicks. Every technique is to KO me.[/QUOTE]
I once fought and beat the world’s best fighter. He could karate chop cars in half and could fly kick from 1.2 miles away. I have a gi so he didn’t stand a chance. Just take my word for it, no proof necessary.
You do realize your bullshit stories sound just as stupid right??
[QUOTE=GrouchyOldMan;2964148]I just went back and reread your OP, to be sure I wasn’t suffering from dementia or the lingering damage of having recently taken a bad fall and being thrown on my head.
Six pages after asking whether or not boxing is effective against kickboxing “in an average gym”, whatever the fuck that means, you are now answering your own question, with anecdotal tales of epically grandiose bullshit.
I don’t think anyone’s father needs to be brought in to this. JKA kumite has nothing to do with the topic at hand, and experience in martial arts isn’t hereditary.
And if your sparring partner ‘fell to the ground’ every time you blocked one of his kicks, it doesn’t sound to me like he was any good at full contact kickboxing. You’re aware kickboxers block one another’s kicks?
Besides, what makes you think he was sparring to win the way you were? If he’s an experienced competitor, then he probably knows better than to spar to win, and was actually sparring correctly.
It sounds like all these stories you hear of white belts bragging how the “tapped out a purple belt”.

I don’t see why not. They asked who he is. It’s not like they are in any way qualifed to evaluate his Karate.

Well I did ask since he was attempting to humble brag., He was claiming “My father is however a former European Champion in Shotokan Karate and the highest ranked instructor in his organization. A legend in Karate.” How is someone suppose to walk past that?

I think Bnet said it best
“I’m convinced you’re just a troll.”

Oh come now. The were using TKD hand gear, no mouthguards, no cups, in a Dojang’s open gym. You know damn well they were going light and playing tippy tap, if it ever happened. He is just full of shit.
He has already claimed he can’t video himself cause he needs a hand to hold his phone which I am forced to conclude also means he has no friends, no possessions of any sort to prop his phone up with, nor a computer to edit the footage, nor internet to upload it and we are all imagining his postings.
I am of course completely happy being wrong if evidence is ever introduced. But a “Serbian Kickboxing Champion” getting trounced by a dude with 3 months of boxing in a Dojang is bullshit. None of it makes sense as his story goes.

No. His background is full contact Kickboxing. The other guys are exactly of the kind you describe; tip tap pussy footers… And yes I have no friends.

Probably not even his father, just some video he thought looked cool enough.

“Disqualifed for excessive force” in a striking competion = “it’s for pussies.” Remember all those MT and K1 and kyokushin guys that got disqualified for excessive force? Me neither.

He is a Yugoslavian Karateka. Was Yugoslavia known for pussy training? Lol.
[QUOTE=Heuristic;2964203]Do you want me to post a picture of me standing next to him?[/QUOTE]
Sorry, blood tests are required here.
How about you post something, anything, resembling a martial art worth discussing. Right now you’re barely reaching the stimulative level of second rate erotic fiction.
Where the did I write that I trounced the kickboxer? Can’t you people read? I said neither one achieved anything. I don’t know which class of a kickboxer he is.

If you crashed his gate and dumped him every time he kicked then you trounced his clumsy untalented Serbian-Kickboxing-Champion-ass under modified cuddly TKD rules but striking with K-1 power kicks in an open Dojang.
Which is exactly what you have been claiming. I hope you can see how silly this is when you add up your posts into a cohesive narrative.

No. He threw the kitchen sink and I evaded or blocked. His precision was good. He did however overextend himself from time to time and tripped. Nothing strange about that.

Our words are here for all the see and uneditable after 5 minutes. You wrote what you wrote and people can read it how they wish. Maybe reread the thread carefully from the start before you post anymore.

Well if you are so impressed by me not taking any clear hits that you refuse to believe it, then I take that as a compliment. I was anticipating his his kicks though and wasn’t productive myself. Hard to connect a target that is defence oriented.
