KARATE CHAMP Jim Harrison CRUSHES Fred Wren in 1968 w/ 3 Referees including Mike Stone and Ed Parker
The ENTIRE FIGHT is repeated in SLOW MOTION so you can see the bare fist punches that Fred Wren blocks with his face. Jim Harrison was a serious bad-a**.
What you will also see in the slow-mo is that point karate in the 1960s did not prepare you for defense. You’ll see Wren getting punched in the face with his hands completely extended away, like in kata, rather than cover the target, like in boxing.
To add to this historical fight, for some strange reason, there are three referees. Maybe it was a three-round point fight? I don’t know who the second guy is but Mike Stone is first and Ed Parker is third.
This is one of the most entertaining match ups between two of the toughest karate champs in the 1960s Blood-n-Guts karate era going head to head in this 1968 grand championship of a major tournament.
