My Sanshou In House Tournament at Tat Wong Kickboxing - 9/14/2008

Below is the video of my latest fight at my school (Tat Wong Kickboxing). This was an 'in-house' tournament which means that it was a fight between students in the same school. We had students from San Mateo school, Concord school and of course the San Francisco School. 

Each Sanshou fight followed the official Sanshou tournament rules. Three 2 minute rounds with punch, kick, throws and push-outs. Those push-outs were definitely something different. It pushes you to know where you are on the mat and making sure that you don't go out of the line. If you're out of the line twice, you lose. 

The main difference that I really noticed was that in this official rules, they actually stop the time when the referee stops the fight due to push outs, unsuccessful throw, etc. You can't imagine how much that delayed the end of the round. I've done this 4 times before and this is the only time when one rounds seemed like two rounds.

Well anyways, enough chatting, on to the videos. Below is my first 2 rounds. It's not even worth it to see the third round =)
