Hard-working for many years, several podium places in different organisations, and been representing Poland for many years in the major tournaments. For many being seen as the proof of never giving up spirit in many extremely long and demanding fights. In Poland, known for hard fights in the Polish Championships with top fighters of the world as Maciej Mazur, Patryk Sypień with more.

Well…. if you can only go to one event the next year, here you have it: Fight seminar with Cristian Boldut & Valeri Dimitrov, held in Romania, Sibiu 20 – 22 January.
15 years ago we received the very sad message of the death of Tokujun Ishi.
“Despite prayers made by President Midori and all Branch Chiefs, as well as students and many, many other people, Shihan Ishi passed away today, on November 12th at 11:17am. He was 44 years old.”
The weekend 22-23 October, Maciej Mazur and Monika Zielińska was the guest instructors during a training camp held in Norway. Norwegian Karatekas was in for a excellent weekend lead by top athletes of the world.
In the World of Fullcontact Karate we have so many good fighters, that we cant hold track of everybody! We dive into the 14th All Japan Open JKJO held recently. In the final of the heaviest category: former IKO1 profile Yuta Takahashi (Takahashi Dojo) vs Daisuke Tada (Byakuren-Kaikan)
Riri Ishihara recently won the World Championship – lead by her father Tadashi Ishihara. By winning the World Championship, Riri copied her father from 1997, where he won the very first World Championship in weight categories.
We saw many good fights in the 7th World Championship last weekend. One of the absolute favorite fights for our sake was Dimitrov vs Artyushin. When you are slightly above average interested in this, you quickly remember whether similar fights have taken place – and yes, they met in The 4th World Championship as well. Want to compare the matches?
We found it interesting to take a look back at this tournament held in 2013. This version of the All japan Open had a strong support of fighters from other nations as well, and if we take some of the profiles – that can in matter of fact face each other again in the 7th World Championship coming up in September.
