I hate that type of sparring. And then people com plain about TKD sparring. Good grief. They both had one single attack. A crappy kick off the front leg. Ugh. I'm going to sleep.

the spin hook he got the 'knockout' with was pretty abismal. His head was REALLY low and it didnt appear he was controlling it at all.

He was also falling over alot... that might just have been the floor.

I noticed he got a talking to for striking the guy in the back of the head. If i was one of the refs i'd have taken him to one side and told him to exercise more control over his strikes, he seemed to be throwing them without control :eh:

there were alot of opportunities i noticed where sammy could have annihilated the guy with some jump spin hooks, the guys guard was low and i know sammy has the speed and the ability to perform them incredibly well, and he would have scored big points for landing them too.

Semi contact is good for what its designed to be good for. Thats to make people gain a better ability of blocking strikes, of developing speed and finding weak spots in your opponents guard. You cant say "its crap coz the other guy could knock him out but they stop it" because thats not what its designed for. If you want meatheads smacking the shit out of eachother, dont watch semi-contact fights.

I enjoy this kind of sparring, its a refreshing change from continuous, and you have to think ALOT more when sparring. This is what i used to compete in when i did TKD tournaments, along with some non-stop sparring rounds based on points. Its alot of fun! Dont knock it until you've tried it :good:

Meh. Full Contact for the win.

full contact when its only for points is pretty pointless, you dont get extra points for kicking the guy harder.

continuous sparring is better. Its as full contact as you make it, but its supposed to be semi.
