A community portal about Karate with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: Karate is a martial art of Ryūkyūan origin. The word "karate" comes from kara, meaning empty, and te meaning hand. Karate has a rich and diverse history of development, incorporating countless influences from other martial arts and cultures. Today, karate is known primarily as a hard style striking art, featuring linear punches, blocks, kicks, knee/elbow strikes and open handed techniques. However, soft style punches and blocks, grappling, joint manipulations, locks, restraints, throws, and vital point striking are often an inherent part of many karate styles.
Lyoto Machida, also known as "The Karate Kid" of UFC, has recently announced that he will not be fighting fellow Brazilian Mauricio "Shogun" Rua at their highly anticipated rematch scheduled for January 2, 2010. As it turns out, Machida will need surgery to repair an injured hand which he sustained during UFC 104.
