How a sanda bout works

1. Sanda, the fighting form of wushu, allows punches, kicks and throws. It is fought on a raised square platform, the leitai, with no ropes.
2. A punch to the head or body, or a kick to the thigh, scores one point. A kick to the head or body scores two.
3. Putting the opponent on the floor while staying on your feet scores two, and so does the opponent falling off the platform.
4. Judges score each round separately, and the first fighter to win two rounds wins the bout.

How long

Three rounds of two minutes, with a minute's rest. If one fighter wins the first two rounds, the third is not fought.
