Hi Bovy

Under the ISKA , there are 4 disciplines.

 

The main ones are:

FC = Full contact kickboxing , basically what used to be called Full Contact karate , the usual kicks above belt, long trousers used.

 

Low kick= What we used to call KICKBOXING rules , what i call proper kickboxing

Shorts are worn and kicks to the legs allowed.

 

Then there is :

Thaikickboxing = Basically the modified version of the thaiboxing rules. NO elbows at all and they break up the clinch is there is no activity (not to be confused with K-1 where the clinch is broken straight away)

 

Muay Thai= FULL rules + Elbows + Thai music + 1st round is always scored even + 2 minutes break between rounds.

 

Hope this answers your question mate.

Do you train at wicker camp?

Where does the oft-quoted 'Oriental Rules' come into it? Is that the modified Thaiboxing rules? What's the difference between Low Kick and Thaikickboxing? No knees in Low Kick?

Oriental rules is basically modified thaiboxing rules.

The oriental rules seems to have various interpretations these days.

Low kick allows kicks to the legs but no knees.

Aren't you forgetting the best fight of the night, Adam V Simon?

Aren't you forgetting the best fight of the night, Adam V Simon?

 

That was a cracking fight! Had me on the edge of my seat. At times I thought Simon was going to stop his younger opponent.

Another thing to consider is that was Simon Marsdens VERY FIRST full contact fight!

Im glad that he has left the light contact circuit behind as he was clearly overqualified to have been competing at that level.

The above sentiment had been echoed by many people. This first step he took was one he probably should have taken years ago and I think everyone is glad he did it.

 

If Simon had played by the rules however the decision may have gone his way. Not taking anything off my mate Adam Lawrence though

That fight itself MADE the whole show . well that and Scot Syke's fight. The rest quite simply lacked excitement. Oh well you cant have everything.

[Kieran101]

No not really.

Only Shane Beard, Joe McGovan and Paul Cropper from SDF and also Yousif &Safa Ibrahim from AFK the twins from AFK and 3 or 4 other AFK fighters.

Nobody from Sheffield academy , marsdens ,... or any of those type of clubs will feature on this event.

 

discuss 'type of clubs' Unless I'm seriously mistaken I thought these 2 clubs provided the best fight? So why wouldn't you want their fighters on your card? Am I missing something?
