A Kyokushin classic – see the legends up close (video)

In its 55-year history, Kyokushin has been through a lot of changes, but today we would like to give you the opportunity to go back to an interesting moment of it.

We jump into the time machine to go back to the year 1999 when a tournament for Kyokushin fighters, Seido karate, and Oyama karate was held. A lot of notable K1 fighters took participation in it with every one of them competing by the rules of Kyokushin. It should be noted that they are mixing kickboxing rules with those of Kyokushin. The attractive fights, to which WKU and SENSHI are trying to bring Kyokushin back to, sure will be a delight for the true fans of the martial art.
