I have really short legs which makes kicking really hard to be powerful and fast i have really strong muscle in my legs from HEAPS of bike riding which is great for leg locks and chokes but i really can't kick how do i practice to improve my kicks?
I have good technique but i just don't have the power to back it up
Start practicing on the heavy bag. Practice kicking as hard as u can and with speed. Each time u kick that bag it in prints that into ur bone on your legs. If u do it with less effort or sloppy. Then that's what it will in print into ur bone and u will not do as good. Expect only the best out of your self and keep repeating these exercises everyday. Practice strength and speed. As long as u practice that, i promise u will get better.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles The soccer kick is the colloquial term for a kick performed against a prone or supine opponent by a fighter who is in a standing or semistanding position, specifically to the head of the downed opponent. Though a foul when delivered to the head in the Unified Rules of Mixed Martial Arts which prevail in America, the technique was commonly employed in Pride Fighting Championships where it often spelled an imminent end to the contest by (t)ko, owing to the effectiveness of the technique. Notable practitioners of the soccer kick were fighters Wanderlei Silva and Mauricio Rua both of the Chute Boxe Academy, a famous mixed martial arts gym. There are still small MMA organizations that allow soccer kicks to the head of downed opponent. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Tennoe, Mariam T./ Henssonow, Susan F.

Mixed Martial Arts Techniques : Leg Kick Move in MMA
Why boxers are so vulnerable and weak compared to kick boxers,wrestlers or MMA fighters?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBG9PeImA10
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fV8RxbOgfJg
Ok someone can mention the only example of the washed out Tim Sylvia but we all know the boxer will always have a punchers chance, specially in the heavier divisions, but boxers in general look so soft compared to other combat sports participants!
MMA fighters ,wrestlers,Kick boxers,Muai Thai fighters look like warriors,now guys like Dirrell,Calzaghe or Mayweather look like warriors to you?I can still remember the biggest disappointment in my life when a fake WWE guy, Stone Cold, putted Tyson on the ground with one simple move like Tyson was a bee or a child and Tyson needed 10 guys from his security guard to save him from the suffocation.
Many boxing fans call other combat sports gay and soft but it seems like it's the other way around maybe?
Boxing is more gentlemenly but nobody with half brain would deny MMA and kickboxer would have the advantage in real fights. Remember when Bonjasky kicked Ray Mercer and Mercer just quit, this is the se Mercer who went toe to toe with Holyfield for twelve. That was funny. I prefer boxing though because it's all stand up, but boxing has problems. Look at this Pacman/Ma fight, in K1 or UFC these guys would be forced to fight each other or sent their pinkslips.
What you're talking about is Karate not Kickboxing. Kickboxing is a generic term and doesn't describe Karate. American Kickboxing does not use a gi. Also Chuck Norris participated in Karate tournaments. I've never seen him fight since he stopped participating in the early 70's (not 80's) and I don't know what system they used at the time but it could be one of two things. Full pads or 'knockdown karate.'
I've seen karate tournaments back in the 90's and the fights were finicky-looking at best. This was the full pad fights, mind you. Depending on the fighter (which was a lot of them) you'd see one guy, or both, bouncing back and forth on their feet. I know it helps set up a quick snap kick but it made a mess of the fight. And the boxing is atrocious as what I can describe as who can slap their opponent faster without getting hit back. I hated this system.
Last I checked the style of Karate is pretty timeless. There are some changes in different schools but the style is still there. Same kicks and same punches. So what is this 'old style?' Unless you're talking about the tournaments as you described would be knockdown karate. It's still around. Like the other people have said it's not as popular as MMA hence you don't see it as much.
If you're a MMA coach why would you describe a MMA fight as 'kids' throwing each other to the ground and as a street fight in a cage? MMA fights also take place in a ring (and just recently also a yamma pit….). I don't know what you're teaching but styles such as jiu-jitsu, wrestling, judo, or sambo even cannot be loosely described as 'throwing each other to the ground.' Each martial art has its intricacies and deserves more respect because that's what these 'kids' in MMA are learning. And they're learning it because karate alone is not as superior as you think.
What a load of rubbish. You'd see a lot more deaths in MMA, kick-boxing, boxing, etc. if this was true. Killing a person is very, very difficult to do with just 'one blow' as suggested above. The author has seen too many movies.

And oh yeah, this promotion is looking great!!! Hopefully the new k-drama “DREAM” is making mma and kickboxing more mainstream.
