They See Him Flailin' They Hatin'... War Flail vs. Katana Fight Reaction

Описание: This is an interesting (and entertaining) sparring match that caught my eye, between a big dude with a pole flail and a Kendo practitioner with a shinai. I don't know anything about the fighters, as there is currently no info in the description, but they look competent to me.

I was expecting the fighter with the sword to pretty much get steamrolled by the polearm with its superior reach and power, but he did surprisingly well. Definitely an awesome match, and a good opportunity to point out some pros and cons of the flail in practical terms.
