Yes there are weight divisions, but there are also tournaments with a open weight class.

If you are so unfamiliar with the sport as to not even know if there are weight classes, it isn't to much of a guess that you don't know much else about the sport either, including rules and how to actually fight within those rules.

Yes this is an assumption, but given your original post, it doesn't seem too unreasonable.

There, I've answered your question..now;

I know the rules of the sport but I never seen much KK action apart form Kancho Shokei Matsui doing the 100 man kumite.

Just cause I dont know about the weight divison, doesnt mean I dont know about the sport.

Also to the guy who said they would kick your ass, there's no point trying to talk to you.

There have been lighter fighters who have won, Benny the Jet and many more but I am goinng to sleep and cant be bothered to waste my time with you.

I think theres no point talking to you. If you enter a competition, it is not only possible, but highly probable that there will be people of your skill level. You think you can beat someone with a 12 inch height advantage (god knows what kind of reach advantage) and almost 100 pound weight advantage? With such a huge advantage, it is reasonable that they would not need to be more skilled than you to win. You are a fucking idiot. You are not Benny The Jet. You are not Sakuraba. You are a damn fool. You are nothing.

Havn't seen much KK action? Do you even TRAIN in Kyokushin? You don't need to worry about fighting blacbelts if you're not even in a dojo.
