my mistake... tomaz barada beat the north korean guy at the 2001 ITF World Championships

this is one of the better sparring matches technically in ITF. a lot of ITF sparring matches now are so sloppy. all you see competitors do are running in with barrages of punches and sloppy kicking, but there are few that are just awesome fighters technically. tomaz barada is one of them. he defeated the guy from japan in "king of taekwon-do" tournament and beat the north korean guy at the 1999 ITF World Championships

it is rules. but then now in ITF taekwon-do world championships, expect to take full contact. its a shame really, but it does happen. i mean ive been punched off my feet in a national tournement from the power before, alot depends on the ref aswell. as to what he allows.

Besides a question of points, one don't want to get to close to the adversary (mainly if the adversary uses legs a lot -such as in TKD-) because it will not last too long trying to box (not only because a power that a kick transmit is a several times larger than any punch but because when the adversary gets too close -to punch/grab- is when jumping spinning kick and an ax kick can be used in a more effective way).
maidanac (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
Yes, one can "fake" a possible kick under the belt (i.e. legs, knee) and while approaching to suddenly change direction... About the spinning kick, that was a jumping one (if I saw correctly) and any jumping kick posses some inertia that it is difficult to control so it will always more powerful than a non jumping kick (with exceptions). Cheers.
