A martial arts style which is totally ineffective in MMA competitions like UFC and Pride. Every time a Karate dude gets in the ring, he is either knocked out or taps out. If you want to learn self defense, study grappling, wrestling, or kick boxing.

Karate is only good against opponents who are untrained. Even then, you still may get knocked out.......
