I just saw trampoline jumping for the first time ever at the Olympics and fell in love with it. I loved watching the athletes getting some serious air and doing the most amazing flips, all while keeping their bodies under control in such a small area. It was fast paced and just thirlling to watch.

Tae Kwon Do and Judo are a must watch for me. Gymnastics and Badminton are also pretty fun to watch.

I love martial arts so I'd love to watch Judo and Tae Kwon Do and maybe wrestling. I haven't heard of Tae Kwon Do being in the Olympics before, this was such a surprise, no offense but it's one of the most stupid martial arts and it's in the Olympics now, I think fencing is quite stupid too. Maybe other martial arts are too brutal for the olympics?
And before anyone starts saying stuff like "Ooo, a fencing or tae kwon do master could kick yo ass!" I'd say that I know that very well.
Learning those are definitely better than being unprepared in a fight but I don't think that a martial arts that only allows kicking or only allows punching like boxing or in the case of fencing, only allows stabbing is stupid. You have to know a little about everything to be able to defend yourself. Kicking is really dangerous anyway, you have to train more to be able to kick without killing yourself because you could get grabbed by the leg and easily lose your balance. Why bound yourself like that. I was even thinking about learning a lot of different martial arts to be as prepared as possible when in need so to me it's really weird when people choose to only use one type of attacks.


Oh by the way, I heard that Estonia won the gold medal in the discus throw!

Other than martial arts I like every competition where Estonia is competing.

I'm a distance runner, so my favorite is the marathon. I also like to watch the 5K and the 10K on the track.

I like the marathon quite a lot as well but it's boring to watch... I'd like to be able to run so long and fast too... I get dead tired after only a few kilometres.

Yes, indeed, I like Muay Thai a lot as well after I played Kwonho and watched that Kenichi anime, Apachai is so awesome.
But you shouldn't say stuff like that. The one who is stronger will win, the style doesn't matter if you work harder than the opponent but to maximize your result, I wouldn't think that TKD or boxing would be good.

I like watching Judo or Taekowndo because I love martial arts. The other reason is cos I can't find any other martial arts in the olyumpics that I can watch (or maybe I didn't see it)

I learn martial arts myself for 5years now. I want to learn all kinds of martial arts and first I want is Muay Thai wahahaha!
