- Well, excuse my spelling, but that sounds like Kyokushinkai. I believe
- this is Mas Oyama's system. I think they ran a tournament
- called the "Sabaki Challenge". A single elimination fighting
- tournament where anything goes. The last guy standing won.
- The video that I saw was pretty hardcore. That year it was
- somewhere in Colorado.
