Founded by Masutatsu Oyama. In fighting the competitors have no or minimal shin padding and no body protection other than groin guards. Punches to the face and groin and joint attacks are prohibited. All fighting is bare-knuckle. Punches and elbow strikes to the body, and kicks (including kicks with the knee) against thigh, body, head and face are permitted, as are sweeps. A score is only made by knocking your opponent to the floor, or incapacitating them, or by sweep and controlled follow-up for half a point.
