11 Year Old Kyokushin VS Shaolin Battle
Competition . Training notes . VideoNo this isn’t a battle that has lasted 11 years but a battle between two 11 year old competitors! This match pits a Japanese Student of Kyokushin against a Chinese Student of Shaolin Fists. The competion takes place in China before an all Chinese audience all dressed in Red! Who will win…?!
The two eleven year olds are almost equally matched in terms of weight, although the Chinese boy is a bit taller. For those of you who don’t know Kyokushin Karate is considered the “Strongest” karate mostly due to the training techniques; and Shaolin means (little forest) in Chinese though the name is famous in the Martial Arts as stories of Shaolin Monks come to mind. I think you will be surprised by the results of this match.
In my opinion the results are bogus but not surprising given the circumstances of the fight.
When you watch the video take note of the points on both sides ans post your evaluation of the fight in the comments. Let the debate begin!
Jason, first I like your site very useful.
Yes I knew the competition was taking place at the Chinese school and they were in uniform but the visual was to good to pass on. They were both very good fighters and did excellent jobs representing their respective styles. That being said the Japanese seems to control most of the match and score better points so I contest the validity of the results. The match would have felt better if it was on neutral ground. I would like to follow both their careers to see if they continue to the international competition stage.
This is actually taking place at the Chinese Kid’s school… that’s there uniform they are all wearing. And while that school is mostly likely in DengFeng or ZhengZhou and called a ‘shao lin’ school, it is most likely like all the others; you major in Wu Shu or San Da. That boy is obviously a SAN DA fighter.
And one hard little dude! As is the young japanese boy.
