IKF Point
Kickboxing© is a
copyrighted program by
Johnny
Davis' (Right) and the IKF.
IKF Point Kickboxing© was specifically designed for the
beginning Kickboxer but will also assist the advanced Kickboxer to better their
skills. Point Kickboxing© allows one to concentrate on
technique as opposed to focusing on not being knocked out. Full gear is
mandatory and knockouts are not allowed in IKF Point Kickboxing©.
The contact is strictly enforced. You can only win a bout on points. The true
difference here is the style. For years, Point Karate tournaments have
flourished all over the country but the techniques one uses in a Point Karate
tournament (backfist, ridgehands etc.) are mostly ineffective and not
allowed in Kickboxing.
Point Kickboxers have to maintain the form and style of a
Kickboxer or most certainly face defeat. Competitors who've done Point Karate
tournaments and even Domination style fighting find
IKF Point Kickboxing© totally different. Some of the
differences are the 16 oz. gloves, "real" boxing techniques (jab,
hook, cross etc.) as well as the continuos fighting that challenges the
conditioning level of each opponent. If your guard is not up and chin down, you
are more likely to be out pointed.
IKF Point Kickboxing© allows you to keep the fighting
form of Kickboxing as opposed to switching back and forth from Karate. Most
matches are one or two minutes but can go up to three minutes for the advance
divisions. IKF Point Kickboxing© is not only the next step out of
the gym for the eventual full contact fighter or Kickboxing enthusiast but is
another outlet for the IKF to continue
building the sport of Kickboxing's bright future.
