Answer 1

Depends on which one you are. If you are the fellow in black you need to work on not blocking low kicks with your hands. that will get you seriously hurt.

I also advise against sparring next to a road where auto's are flying by. One slip or stumble and you are not going to have too worry about training for a long time, if ever.

How long have you been training?

Answer 2

got ok basics....dial in those techniques and i cant stress to keep your guard up enough..also FOOTWORK solid kicks wont do much if you cant move with them.....

Answer 3

Your face was wide open for strikes to the face.

You really should have removed your jacket.

But for 1.5 years, not bad, not good.

Answer 4

first of lets be serious that was bad by my standards. and as someone who does train MMA Total Gym in SA town u need some work the clothes your wearing not good, being on a sidewalk not good, none of yall have anytype of form. the only thing that i can say does impress me is the spinning leg kick but when u do this u have to look when your coming out of the spin so you can make sure you hit your opponent. because throw one like that and its easy enough to have someone side step you and go for a take down

Answer 5

oh nice bro ;) when we usualy spar we have eqipment on cuz we take in hard blows...urghhh i come back home with bruises lol..i dont know WHY they kick so hard : |

it looks good for a beginner. I train shotokan karate, been 7 years since i started.

wish ya luck,

Answer 6

Your kicks are BAD ***. If they were quick, you'd have PRO potential!

Answer 7

Pretty good at controlling your distance.  A little off balance in some of the clutch moves.  Don't waste engergy throwing kicks when you are too far away to strike. Otherwise pretty good.
