Impressive, and the guy does not even bother with a high and tight defense - compared to other fighters in this league he looks surprisingly open. Maybe a style I should adopt.

not the clearest video, but shows Ottos famous faint kick to sweep technique:

So who can I practise on?

Otto is the man, people that say karate is slow. Look at this chap.

We can do some ashi barai on thursday

So fast if you did not know better it would look sloppy. The speed that he can take legs out from under people of that level.

Wow, he's good, really good, and it did look sloppy, to me (an untrained eye) but at the same time perfect blocking everything and getting in some truly sweet hits... dunno about the music in the third video though...

Real action never looks perfect, its not a film set. Speed, fluidity and power make the best look sloppy at points, but just look at the result. Form should follow function remember that.
