Dangers of training in a style that don't let you hit the head - develop bad habits, namely hands up!
When we first started promoting sanshou in NYC, we had a lot of Kyokushin fighters, they were tough, but low hands and obviously zero boxing skill made things hard on them
lol at "traditonal sparring"
what's up with kicking in while in clinch range?

oh dayum at that fighter
The lack of punching to the head changes the fundamental shape of the fighting as has been said... and since you can't punch, of course you kick in close...
Well, that and the fact there was no clinch allowed....
Jon Bluming, with his Judo training, of course was opposed to this format, and was very vocal (well, he was very vocal about everything) to Oyama about this, when push came to shove, Bluming did in fact throw people in Oyama's dojo
Bluming suggested to Oyama to change the format.. at least to include the Judo throws and some ground... Oyama resisted....
The story goes, Oyama eventually said he wanted to see a draft of some new rules, those rules were brought to him, and while at the last minute he still felt such a change would split his organization, he approved the author of those new rules to start his own organization with those rules... that became Daido Juku
