Topic: Slapping Tournament - page 14. (Read 4335 times)
Just going back on this thread. I've watched a video of another slapping tournament and it's like being held everywhere, inside a ring, inside the bar and anywhere it can happen. But the video that I've watched is that I'm surprised to see that there's also a girl's competition for slapping. I find it odd and I don't know what to react to upon watching that video. The boy's slapping tournament is intense but I think I cannot take those blows and slaps for the girl's edition of slapping. The video was just posted on Facebook and you can search it with those keywords that you already know, girl, slap, etc.
I will never understand the point of this "sport".It is fun to watch but I wonder how these guys do not get mad after so many slapping and start an even more brutal fight.Even ladies do this and I found it ugly for women to beat each other.
Lol, this is somehow a boxing sport, if you are asking about how these guys do not get mad after so any slapping and start an even more brutal fight then try to relate it in the sports of boxing, why boxers don't get mad after the fight? This is because of sportsmanship, you wouldn't be a good athlete if you have no sportsmanship, they are doing these for entertainment and for the money as well. Respect each other by giving sportsmanship when losing.That's right! they choose this type of sport and they value their reputation, for sure they're getting mad but since it's a sport they just bring that emotions when it comes to their term. You just give a good example, UFC have a much brutal fight but after the fight both fighters still have a chance to hug and congratulate each other. Sportsmanship is very important and as fighter you need to value one.
joined the sport or whatever things you do get involved if you cant just accept defeat or simply being a sportmanship to have.This doesnt only limit out several sports but also into other
games as well where competitions or simply it involves winners and losers.
This might be brutal for some in talking about slapping but its true that UFC is way more brutal than this and i dont know on where they do get those comparison.

Respect each other by giving sportsmanship when losing.There are some problem sportsmen who don't take these rules and guidelines seriously, but they are the minority and suffer the consequences in sports industry for their bad behavior. So definitelly they aren't going to get mad on each other, because they will have their careers prejudiced later for doing so.
I have been around gamblers who would bet on how many cars pass on a traffic light and who will win an election, so slapping does not surprise me all that much tbh. To me, it is no more of a betting possibility than arm wrestling. If this came from Asia and had some more years under its belt, no one would bat an eye. I think it's just a matter of time, that's it.
If you gamble on how many cars pass on a traffic light, that will be gambling that you and your friends did and not listed on any gambling games. We know that many things can become gambling, and your example is one of that things. Yes, it is a matter of time to see if that sports can grow in other countries or be only popular. After all, many of us do not know about sports and even for betting on that sport.

We can sure say that if a person would see an opportunity to make money he would grab it, and particularly in parts of Asia mostly here in the Philippines were we have Spider derby,and now it is an online gambling here, most notable are cock fighting, I think arm wrestling was very common as a street gambling just like what's depicted from the anime hunter X hunter were Gon Freecss uses it as a way to increase his money I think it is very possible that a Slapping Tournament and gambling could be a possibility.
I think people are experimenting with things now a days and i think that many people are just getting bored with the lock down and pandemic that is why they always end up thinking of weird things for their entertainment, I guess the concept of the slapping tournament was because of their boredom.
The Slapping content began way before the pandemic. It wasn't considered as sport before but a show, and It's from Russia. Remember, Russian people loves to play games/contest that are either could physically hurt you or kill you (Russian roulette for example).
These kind of contest wasn't created because they are bored, Russians are competitive and so they are creative of a way how they can compete with each other. Testing physical capabilities is their way of recognizing how strong and competitive you are.
Yes I know that this Slapping tournament had begun way before the pandemic I am just saying that there are people who wants to put this kind of sports inside an online gambling site because of their boredom, Sorry if I stated that it is just a recent thing,
But thanks for pointing it out, well even though this is not considered as a sports and this is just for fun for the Russian of course, I am not against considering this to be in a betting platform.

A crazy tournament on the best in slapping I really think this is ridiculous at the same time would ease away your boredom but it is not recommended with the faint of heart, I guess this is very popular in part of Russia and if there are gambling site that has this on them I will surely go with the person that is bulkier, pretty much all bulkier dude seems pretty much have the power in their slaps, and recommending this for people that want the thrill if you get hit by a slap,
I haven't seen any gambling sites that can make you bet for this kind of tournament maybe because it is not that popular, and if it did I think this could be a hit and many will surely want to bet for the bulkier dude that is on this tournament
I will say that I am the first to admit that it looks ridiculous but at the same time people are doing everything they can to entertain themselves under the current difficult circumstances and this slapping tournament looks fun to watch and I would not mind it seeing it on TV and get a good laugh out of it, however I can understand if some people do not like it and do not understand why something like this exists at all and prefer to not watch it.

This slapping is mean to inflict harm on both participants, it's better than if they are going to do this event I read it's meant to be a show that it should be a match between two enemies or two people with conflicts so it becomes even in hurting themselves, slapping is dangerous and even harmful than a punch and you see both participants coming in with full force, this is really dangerous.
You should say that to MMA, boxing, and other contact sports that can go real wrong real quick, too, but they are still being held just because they are 'legal', in a sense that they can hold tournaments and events provided they have the necessary license to do so. These fighting sports involve two contestants who don't necessarily have anything against their opponents yet they are still risking their lives for the sport and the money. What makes it different from slapping tournaments? With the right amount of precautions, medical professionals, and security around, I don't think it's that dangerous like what you're trying to make it out. But still I understand the sentiment.
Finally some common sense around here. And let's not forget that MMA was and still is illegal in some countries, and that does not make it less of a sport. Also, slapping is relatively new in terms of being organized, so let's give it some time, sports tend to evolve in a 10 year period.

It's not just Russia, it's also the US so it has not much to do with the countries preference in games. And slapping will not kill you. It will hurt you. But also things that will hurt you are MMA, Boxing, Kickboxing, Powerlifting (people killing themselves under the weights), skateboarding, rugby...need I continue?
And slapping tournaments have been around and covered by some media before the pandemic started. Case in point https://www.vice.com/en/article/evewxm/competitive-slapping-is-the-worlds-greatest-sport
I don't know what exactly you were trying to point out.
There's no comparison with country's sports/games reference right there.
What I have stated is the origin of this whole slapping tournament/contest. I didn't say "Only" Russia, and I didn't say Slapping will kill you (atleast not on the spot, but there are slight instances when you're slapped so hard that it could send you to the hospital, worse die).
What I said was

And also, those you have mentioned was a regular sport and is totally different than the slapping tournament/contest where in no way you can defend yourself. MMA, Boxing, and other contact sports allows you to defend yourself all the time. Skateboarding have crash support gears.
And lastly, I also said that the slapping tournament has been around before the pandemic.
does this tournament really exist?
honestly I have never seen such a unique tournament, and if I can know, what are the criteria that determines a person to win in the tournament?
I think maybe the tournament is just a tradition that is broadcast live on tv, like a tradition that happened in Peru Takanakuy to settle grudges between two people or more in the last year.
I think the slapping tournament is a unique tournament and winners and losers of course have something in common at the end of the tournament, which means getting bruises on the face
The very first reply in this thread already sent the Photos about the game but if you did not come to read the thread then you will never learn this.honestly I have never seen such a unique tournament, and if I can know, what are the criteria that determines a person to win in the tournament?

There were updates from Slapfight Championship wherein they are in the works of holding an event wherein MoistCr1t1kal is one of the English commentators. It's definitely heading towards the right direction and is gaining more and more audience ever since Charlie covered that one single fight as a meme. I do hope they up their production value and the amount of medical professionals on site as it's really a good deviation from your traditional fighting sports and it's equally, if not more entertaining than your regular boxing/wrestling/MMA matches.

If that is on TikTok, I guess that will be to entertain the audience, and I do not think they will slap with full power. They do that for making money because I heard that they could get money by doing something like dance or other things. But if you watch the video on Youtube, you will see the real slap because the video was made for the tournament.
I doubt that the participants will be able to control the strength of their muscles in this "sport".
In the first rounds, it was okay... but after taking a few slaps the guy becomes vindictive, and I think for women it must be even tenser.
Definitely, this is a sport that deserves respect, in a little while they will invent an "ear tug" as sport... it doesn't exist yet, right!?
But let see it later.

I do agree with you. This slapping tournament began way before this pandemic period. Just like the below article, it was in March 2019, so pandemic was not yet here at that time. Just part of their culture, I guess. Developed thru time.

To be honest I never wanted to watch and even bet on a slapping tournament like this, I felt like this was not a sport or anything and I could not afford to see it. At that time when I was looking at the video on the facebook and there was a slapping tournament like this, at first I was curious but after seeing it I was no longer interested in seeing it, much less to bet on it because by us betting on it means we support such a tournament and I am not want.
