Karate VS Taekwondo Sparring!! 3rd Dan Kempo V 4th Dan TKD (World)

ITS TIME! What's Better? WTF Taekwondo or Kempo Karate! In this episode of Seth getting kicked in the head, I spar with Master David Wright, who is a 4th Dan in WT and a 5th Degree Black Belt in Hapkido. We spar in three separate rounds. In the first round, we simply go freestyle stand up kickboxing. Leg kicks are allowed, but lets be honest, they're just not as fun as head kicks! David even lands a nice tornado kick and even a crescent kick on me! In Round 2, I try and look like a sport Karate guy, and David utilizes his kicking World Taekwondo Federation prowess.. That doesn't go well for me. Lastly, David and I go boxing for the last round! No Taekwondo Kicks, no karate kicks, just good ole fashion punching and movement, boxing style!

Lastly, I break down some of the best techniques that were landed, so stay on the look out for that at the end of the video!

Now, I am aware the itf vs wtf taekwondo is a thing. In the next episode, David and I talk about if and how WTF Taekwondo can be useful in MMA or in a street fight!! Make sure you check out the next episode of Fight Talk if you're excited about that!!

I'm jealous of the space you have to train and spar in.

[AmorXcatalunya]

i fucking love taekwondo kicks, they are so smooth and beauty. A taekwondo fighter + mma / boxing skills is so nice to see

[FrancisMaxino]

Good to see TKD guy using hands like we did way back when.

This video showcases how sparring can be beneficial, because it teaches you what to look for, just in case you have to use your skills against someone. Many humans dont understand, when you spar, you do it to learn from one another, not to put the person in a hospital. Awesome video.

TERRANCE OUT

I love the fact there's a zero ego battle. That you're able to teach each other along with yourself. when you see two people who don't spar to dominate the other you move like water, graceful but still intense enough to get a good workout and practical to test reflex's and improve area's you might see as vulnerable.

It appears Taekwondo guy had the better of you in every round. And he didn’t seem out of breath! Some respect points for TKD. 👊🏼

[bruhmoment]

People saying they can’t breath in their mask but these guys are literally fighting in mask

[johnh]

😂my buddy is a Taekwondo guy with hands, and this is almost exactly what our sparring matches are like. Their kicks are just so versatile

[timblaylark]

I'm always impressed with martial artists who keep an open mind and are humble enough to train with anyone.

[Diablos]

The TaeKwonDo guy in red didn't even give 30% of himself.. Feels like he's restraining a lot in this... The guy in black seemed to struggle during the whole sparring tho.. :$

[PBreeze]

I'm taekwondo biased. I appreciate sensei seth picking Master Wright because he really is technically solid. what I really wish would be stressed a lot more is people don't realize that taekwondo really emphasizes distance and that's what makes the art when it's taught correctly really dangerous.his footwork is great. Love the videos!

[SomnathRoyGrimfangs]

I'm a fan of your Taekwondo teacher now.

He's a little good at everything!

[Potatodrumcrow]

I’m a simple man. I see taekwondo and I click like.

[telinstrong]

Seth: *Memes on Taekwondo*

Also Seth: *gets kicked a lot by a Taekwondo Guy*

Seth afterwards: It was his speed not his style I swear

[zach]

Honestly it really isn't a fair comparison through sparring. TKD is design for blasting, lethal kicks but in sparring you aren't trying to injure your opponent. I think that's why TKD gets a lot of hate in the Martial Arts community but in a real fight, TKD could kill or permanently damage someone.

[ninthkaikan]

Nice video, Seth. It’s great to see a TKD vs Karate without being a low quality video or being a compilation

[mcarnese]

So you have finally learned the "Vanishing Drive" technique sensei

[Intdu]

Tkd guys with hands, timing and good footwork are scary in sparring lol.

[soupedkid]

You did it!! More sparring vs styles videos if possible, This would be an amazing series
