    This Just In: Axe Kick To Head Hurts...

    Just wanted to write a quick thanks to Coach Ross & Coach Ventura for hosting a cool event.

    It was nice to see Mutant Warrior- Sorry I didn't introduce myself but my head's still ringing (I was the guy with glasses sittin behind Suntzu).

    Big ups to the Lebanese team- they were all real cool- and my homeboy Suntzu who put on a helluva show (still real sorry I didn't record it).

    Congrats to BadBradBurrick from the UG who won what looked like a battle with Smyzt from Boston. Dunno if he cross-pollinates over here on KFO- but I thought that was an awesome fight, both of those guys got mad skills.

    Was markin out to meet Marvin Perry; even if only for a minute.

    Great seein Khun Kao again; wish we coulda hung out more.

    Thanks to my team members from Baltimore, Coach Julio, and everybody else who helped me prepare.

    Watchin the replay on my camcorder I was like "B*tch! I just got knocked the fugg out!".

    Gonna figure out how to scrounge up my dignity, fix my gaping flaws, and give it another shot in the future. In the meantime any advice to a struggling young fighter is extremely welcome and greatly appreciated.

    Probly wait for Coach Ross to post a more official recap.

    You got took out w/an axe kick?

    Kudos for getting in there and goin at it. I plan on training hard, at least 25 hours a week,for a good 6 or 7 more months before I try and enter any tournies... I want to go up to you guys area to compete as well... Not much San Shou/San Da scene around here.

    Edit: the film should help... I really want to buy a camera just to record myself free wrestling...

    First time even sparring without glasses or contacts.

    I think I misread the kick as a roundhouse and tried to slip it- exposing the side of my head as he reangled the kick. Follow-up punch, that I never saw, finished me off (tho I was pretty much already out).

    Not to take anything away from my opponent though, he destroyed me, just one mistake I wish I hadn't made.

    Back to the drawingboard I guess...

    But at least I got a cool T-Shirt.

    Thumbs up

    it was good to meet your team, i had fun bs-ing with suntzu and all you guys seem way cool. your coach julio is a riot

    a lot of good fights yesterday. don't feel too bad about getting ktfo, just use the experience to focus your training make you a better fighter.

    at least you guys got to fight, i was side-lined with busted ribs. sitting around watching, now that sux, makes it a real long day....

    take care man, and be careful with that head injury, don't spar for awhile. your coach will know what to do.

    later

    Thanks for the advice man.

    I'm gonna try to get in touch with Jurgen to see how he handles fighting without the specs; assuming he hasn't moved again. hehe

    Broken ribs must suck. Broke my arm in June and sitting on the sidelines drove me nuts.

    I'll be back though. Gonna spend the next couple months really getting to know my basics again.

    Hope we'll get to hang out more at one of next year's events.

    Rest that noggin. I made the mistake of sparring again two weeks after getting TKO'd and it was not pretty.
    I think 6 weeks is a minimum.

    Ugh....
    Suxors. Thats part of the game tho, good to see it doesnt discourage you. Just train hard and get in there and knock someone else TFO.

    The late Andy Hug, kyokushin BB and K-1 champ, took many opponents out with the axe kick.

    Its horribly telegraphed, but I'm sure if you slip it in at the right place you can knock someone out cold.

    The tricky thing about the axe kick is that it telegraphs as a crescent kick, so you duck or go to block, then it comes straight down on you. T.

    Yeah, there was one a couple weeks ago. I want to get at least a couple more months in SC before I compete.

    I thought only Paulie Zink did the axe kick. If I could pull of a axe kick ko I don't know if I"d ever stop rewatching the replay of it.

    never really thought of an axe kick having much practical application, but then ive never been on the recieving end so I couldnt say
