Uvais 'Aslan' Bisayev trains Kyokushin alongside Thai and MMA. No idea if he's competes here at Karate or not

The lad might be a savage, I don't know

But this clip does not show it, It's ridonculous at best!

the 1 where all 7 drop within 1-2 seconds is beyond farcical, even if fighters where so bad to get bashed like this the odds on all dropping the minute their hit is slim to none, Especially with the types of strikes been demo'd.

I might be new to the boards but when it comes Karate I'd definitely have to say Tommy Mc Cafferty.
I previously trained with him in Karate and he is seriously clinical+savage! We both got our black belts at the same time and ever since then he has gotten better and better....

I could have sworn that he was kickboxing/k1 and had just recently switched to mma

Ciaran, yeh that's true but he's also a second Dan in shotokan Karate and fought at international level as far as I'm aware...

It was an attempt at levity. I don't really think he's the bestest of the best

the only full contact karate style in ireland is kyokushin (no head punches) and thats a very minor art in this country.

Theres three irish fighters being sent over for the british kyokushin world tournament in england(one guy and two women). Theres been talk of finally having a full blown knockdown karate event in ireland in 2014 but there really needs to be more active clubs for that to happen.
