Where is the Bruce Lee move where you jump and put both your feet on either side of the head and twist to break their neck on the ground? Come on people fight to the death.
Lord have mercy on anyone she lives with 🤣
Some sports just good to watch laugh and smoke too 😂😂
Kinda boring to be honest…
Ok cool but like I beat the strongest kid in practice 😈😈
grats lady gaga now back ot making music
What a badass
This looks like a cartoon or a puppet show with little puppets trying to kick each other. Horrible!
And blocking is that not allowed either ??
You are our heroine and you made us very proud, Anastasia!
U.S.A!!! ❤🤍💙
The men don’t look any better. My grandchildren would knock them all out.
When is too much padding too much padding for a combat sport? This form of combat sport competition favors weaker-minded fighters who substitute toughness, stamina, and spirit for point gaining. Combat sports are about so much more than just skillfully accumulating points. Sadly we cannot know who is actually the better fighter due to the poor competitive value of these competitions. Congrats to Zolotic, nevertheless.
They are both Russians..
Why not just call it side kicking. I will never watch this junk again. Who cares?!
Ok so you can punch to the face ??? And is the certain punches thy can throw ??? Cuz uh I see alot of straight punches the would land if they just throw it all day pretty much
Man the coaches are amazing when they celebrate with their team
The guy explaining the points was so lost lol
Audio: Ahhhh reeee agagagag aggghhhhh ahhhhhh
I’m proud of her but this doesnt even look like a fight, all the pads and no punches, it’s…weird what is considered an olympic sport and what isn’t. We should have an official olympic UFC and kickboxing.
This commentator is WRONG, WRONG , WRONG! The First American woman to win Olympic gold in Tae Kwon Do was Dana Hee in 1988. I know, I trained with her at Golden State Tae Kwon Do in California.
The fearful fearless pear summarily wriggle because soldier periodically sparkle regarding a shocking shoe. political, savory daughter
This is so fuckin weird compared to MMA
Awesome! But more importantly did she face the US flag when they played the anthem?
Go watch World Tae Kwon Do Performance at AGT! Tae Kwon Do is no joke!
Since they changed the rules, these fights are super boring! All front leg kicks for points only, not to actually hit someone
smh didnt keep her hands up.
Good for her!!!
727 in the house!
Tae kwon do is only really useful if you can squat 400+ pounds, than your legs become lethal weapons lol.
By woman did you mean screwing banshee?
It’s the Olympics and they’re pronouncing the name of the sport wrong. It’s not TIE kwon do. Not Ty Kwon Do. It’s said “Tae” like Ted or Bed.
Florida man really proud
Two black belts going at it, perfection in motion. GOLD! Silver! Bronze! Medalists Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOW…..that was boring
Go watch World Tae Kwon Do Performance at AGT! Tae Kwon Do is no joke!
Censor "fighting." I hate Olympic TKD.
Nobody cares not even Americans
Their kicks look like a kid’s play but if you get their kicks on your face you have no idea what it would be like!
Wow, I didn’t think point sparring could ever be worse than karate point sparring. I was wrong.
Congratulations champ👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Not to be a party pooper, but how is this in the Olympics and mma is not???
You are our heroine and you made us very proud, Anastasia!
Was that legal? I unno, Wu Yu Ting?
