That guy has a losing record in K-1. Compared to kickboxing and MT, yes its sucks badly.
Oh yes, he also has a lost his only MMA fight to a grappler.
insert generic training method>style argument here
TKD generally doesn’t spar as hard or often as, say, Muay Thai or Kyokushin. There is nothing wrong with the art itself, though kicks only can be quite limiting.
I predict, before the week is out Taekwondork will have more posts in Trollshido than all his other forum activity added together.
Also, I think Taekwondork needs to see the chart Honest_Truth made:

That video just proves that the guy in the red gloves can’t fight.
There are some legit TKD guys out there. David Loiseau made use of his TKD base back before he faded into obscurity, and Serkan Yilmaz is always fun to watch.
The problem is there are also a lot of half-asses out there do patterns and pointfighting and self-defense routines based around deadly palm strikes to the sternum.
Still, I’d rank TKD in a definitive category above “pure shit” arts like Aikido and Ninjutsu. It’s an “impure shit” art, like Shotokan and the other uncool karates.
Yeah dude, it sucks.
Everything sucks. I refer you to this old thread:

That TKD vs Kyokushin video was stupid. What rule set was that? Kyokushin black belts don’t wear gloves.

I could post a video of me winning some Kyokushin matches when I was a TKD student … but instead …
ahem
Go fuck yourself.

It also proved that the guy in the blue gloves doesn’t kick with any real power or that he was playing some variety of patty-cake.

I have heard a rumor going round that some MA’s train to fight for points. Can you believe that. What is this world coming to.

Given that I’m going to be around more, yeah, I think this is fairly likely
Looks like it only took a few hours.

This thread is one of the many reasons I’d love to have Omega as a trainer.

Be careful what you wish for.
If Omega trains his fighters with the same discipline that he trained himself with - what makes you think any part of that would be enjoyable?
Of course, if pain’s your thing…
