Philippines vs Vietnam | Taekwondo M -68kg Semifinal | 2019 SEA Games

I remember my TKD days... Kudos to all Filipino athletes!!

im not filipino but i watch a lot of matches that arven participated in and damn that man can really fight 😳

This was actually not a bad match. People will never stop complaining.

To those people saying that taekwondo is useless in real fights HAHAHAHAHAHAHA do you think that we only use our legs? We use hands too, specially to those who learned the ITF Taekwondo, and in street fights there are no rules we can kick where ever we want

We never fight Taekwondo like that in the 60's in Viet-Nam. We need to see more kickings such as side kicks, thrust kicks, reverse kicks and flying kicks. I know, nowadays the new rules were applied to be safer during trainings. However, if it is a martial art then its extreme traditional technique must be kept to be comparable with other kind of martial arts. Swinging the legs just like a snake just try to hit some designated points to get scores, it makes this Taekwondo no longer be called "martial art". Taekwondo used to be one of deadly martial arts and I am so proud to be a Black Belt with 17 years in training. Let's make Taekwondo more exciting..... !!!

Respect sa mga bagong player ngayon, panahon nila ngayon , wag ipag yabang Ang panahon Tapos na.

Please bring back old taekwondo, we want to see KO and a powerful striking

Alcantara is my friend in highschool. He used to jog from San Miguel to Tandag City back-and-forth and that takes 1hour via motorcycle. Imagine that... And the heat is almost 32°C everyday.

Y'all keep complaining about how new taekondow is not as good as the old school but new taekondow is alot safer beacuse old school was alot violent as there were even deaths so of course they had to change some rules!! Also i find this fight pretty good, and trust me when i say that these kicks may look like nothing but they hurt as hell!!

I miss taekwondo😭❤🔥

Okay so there are a lot of comments about how old taekwando is better than the new style. In my opinion, I still respect it for what it is. Traditional taekwando looks like it really hurts and people don’t know how dangerous it could be. I do prefer to watch videos on the old style but it looks like it hurts way more to get hit. Can’t we just respect what we have for now and be happy these guys aren’t killing eachother with their kicks?

Let’s go where are my Vietnamese’s brothers and sister

I want to make a point that its never pro's in martial arts that disrespect other disciplines, its just people who want to feel that what they do is superior because of their insecurities

love how the scoreboard just completely vanishes lmao

Boss upload lahat ng laro ng taekwondo sea games dami interisado manood!!!¡?

Respect to vietnam from phillippines!

Old school tapos na un ..appreciate niyo nlng ang sa ngayon mga mema kayo.

ngayun points system na ang pinakaimportante. hindi yung tudo sakitan

The outstanding unwritten rule reigns: "Huwag ka gagamit ng turning kicks kung alam mo na maiilagan lang ng kalaban mo..." Nice one PH... Push 45 plus push axe kick... lupet... same kick na nagpaknockout sa karamihan dati... hahaha...

The rules of taekwondo today is much safer done the old days, so its much better this way. Aiming at winning but in a safer way.
