No , fights like that are illegal in most countries . Before UFC and Pride , there were some Illegal full contact fight groups , but nothing that organized . That was purely fiction .

<>"Kumite" actually just refers to sparring (see: http://martialarts.about.com/od/japanesebasics/g/Kumite.htm). There are many "Kumite" contests annually held in various countries, including Hong Kong. However, the Kumite alluded to in Bloodsport is a fictional "underground, anything-goes, secret" contest that a man named Frank Dux claimed to have fought in and won in 1975. No one can prove this "kumite" actually exists.

It's fiction-consider the source. Frank Dux's stories are right up there with Steve Seagal's CIA secret mission nonsense.

anything frank dux says is not to be taken as truth. 90% of what he claims to have happened in his past has either been proved as false, or cannot be conclucivly proved either way.
