[sanctuary]

This will hurt.

 

[azywrckt]

I really wish Gao lang will win but I know deep in my otaku heart that Kanoh has the impenetrable plot armor and wont be defeated until the end or almost end of the manga.

 

[Big_Boss]

So, strongest fighter can't counter kickboxing with addition of elbows? :raughs it japanese:

 

[krispy]

i know he wont win cause its a manga and hyping up for nothing is what it does...

@big_boss i dont think u read that properly but watevs

 

[Stoner]

I mean, his face is on the cover of volume 26 lol.

 

[OniBarubary]

This fight is ridiculous

 

[Big_Boss]

@krispy, what part? Kickboxing - stikes/punches with legs/fists, muay thai - stikes with knees/elbows, what part I got wrong?
And Fang struggles against this combination.

 

[fifthtouch]

and mayweather just punching and hugging. Why cant anyone beat him?

 

[Kathartes]

@Stoner
Last volume is 27 though. Most likely reserved for our forgotten MC.

@Big_Boss
There are many styles of kickboxing, and Japanese kickboxing allows knees/elbows too. Btw, comparable martial arts don't mean they have the same principle. If that's the case, you may group all martial arts in the world into a few ones based on how many limbs you can use.
Niko's lesson of the day: application makes the technique. Okubo can try that combination and Fang still beats the crap out of him because he has no mastery of it.

Finally a fighting manga full of freaks shows a character putting on a remarkable display with pure skill and no bs yet some people keep crying a river about it.
If you want muh superpowers, stick with opm lmao

Gaolang practiced in muay thai for whole 20 years, switched to boxing and mastered that too. He's arguably the best boxer and nak muay combined in kengan universe, you can't really downplay that as someone "just using boxing and muay thai."
Fang was probably weaker than Gaolang's full power at the start of this match, but Fang's "evolving" as the match goes. You need to defeat him before that, but Gaolang still hasn't managed to score that deciding hit, and we all know where this will go.

 

[Serenata]

@Coriander Yeah, let's not forget how the Fang beat the other guy with just one punch to the head, a punch so strong he bend the skull almost killing ... I think that wasn't evolving thing anyway, just a really fucking heavy strike ... So the fang has a very decisive final strike and Gaolang has jabs

 

[krispy]

@big_boss other people explained it more peaceful than i wouldve but the fact is they understood what they read

 

[Big_Boss]

No hate to Gaolang, dude is pretty serious competetor for finals, but I don't see how beating and MMA heavyweight champion is easier than beating a heaviweight box champion who also practice a muay thai, while rules of "everything but weapons is allowed" is applied :\
But here it's pictured that Fang has ALOT more struggle against (in my opinion) much simplier opponent.
@krispy, no worries =)

 

[Kathartes]

@Big_Boss
Basically you mean:
1) Both of them are champions, so their strength is roughly the same. Fang should have an easy match.
or
2) This is no-rule fight, therefore MMA with more variety of technique should be better than simply boxing x muay.
So, which one?

Either way, since when champion title or form of martial art is used to determine someone's strength? Did you just disregard people's talent and effort because they can't be measured by power level like Dragon Balls?

 

[Big_Boss]

@Kathartes, closer to 2nd, but:
1) Not better, more effective in more scenarios, and especially in no-rule fight.
2) Title itself is not what matters in my statement, both are heavyweights that's what I compared mostly, so roughly both of them are used to fights in that weight.
In this fight it's shown that specialist in only 1/4 of aspect (blows, hold, locks, throws) holds ground much better than specialist in all 4 of those, and that's not to my taste, as simply as that.
