The Machida Karate System - Training Elusive Fighters with Chinzo Machida
Whilst Chinzo Machida is widely credited as being one of the main driving forces (as a coach) behind brother Lyoto’s huge success within the UFC, he is also a technically brilliant fighter within his own right too. Orthodox by nature (with Lyoto being a natural Southpaw), his striking style has seen him take numerous great wins in both MMA and Karate over the years.
As a coach, he works with athletes from the world of Karate, MMA, Kickboxing and Muay Thai to help further develop their striking. With himself and Lyoto both well known for their highly effective, yet elusive and unpredictable style of fighting, elite level fighters from all combat sports seek him out on a regular basis to learn the Machida Karate system to benefit their own sporting careers.
