Kyokushin World Cup in Weight Categories

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

World Karate Championship in Weight Categories is the second largest competition in Kyokushin Karate. This tournament is arranged by several kyokushin organisations and usually held every fourth year in between World Tournaments which do not have any weight classes.

Rules

[edit]

All world cup tournaments operates under knockdown karate rules which involves standup bareknuckle fighting with basically no protection. The more characteristical rules in knockdown karate compered to other styles is that you are not allowed to punch in the face and a point system that only count hits that actually "hurt" the opponent. This makes knockdown fighting very physical but at the same time quite safe considering that there are very few hits to the head. There can be slight variances in the rules between the different organizations responsible for a tournaments but the basics are the same. The rules has also been modified over the years.[1][2][3]

Normally knockdown rules includes

[edit]
  • No protectors or guards are used, with exception to groin guards and teeth protection.
  • 3 minutes match-time
  • The fighter that achieves an Ippon (one point) will win the match and the fight is stopped. An Ippon is achieved when an attack that knocks down the opponent for more than 3 seconds or renders the opponent being reluctant to continue the fight. An ippon can also be granted if an illegal technique is used and the other fighter is disqualified.
  • A fighter can also win the fight by Waza-ari (half point) which is awarded if the opponent is knocks down by less than 3 seconds and is able to continue the fight. If two Waza-aris is achieved during the fight it is counted as an Ippon and the fight is stopped.
  • If no knockdowns occurs, the judges can declare one fighter as winner by overall efficiency of techniques, force and dynamics.
  • In case of a draw there can be up to 3 extensions (each 2 minutes long). Some tournaments will also settled draws by weight different and result of Tamaeshiwari (breaking of tiles)

European Weight Category Karate Championships

[edit]

The Kyokushin European Weight Category Karate Championships is the annual Kyokushin Karate European Championship. It has been organized since 1978 and is held in four different weight classes. The first European Championships in 1978 were known as the European Championships in London.[9] After Oyama's death in 1994, the Kyokushi organization disbanded into several other organizations. The original IKO1 organization continued the European Championships under a new name in 1996. Between 1978 and 1996, there were mainly three weight classes, the light series (less than 70 kg), the middle series (less than 80 kg) and the heavy series (more than 80 kg). Exceptionally, the first European Championships had only two weight classes.[9]
