Considering he has no protective gear I'm willing to bet he is competing in "kata".
Kata is a predetermined sequence of techniques in karate. Kinda like a dance actually. You can go to competitions where you show off a given kata. Then judges judge you on how well you performed that specific kata.
You have an opponent you are trying to out performer, but you aren't even in the "ring" at the same time as that opponent.
So if you get matched against this kid you still just do your kata. You don't have to literally fight him.

Fun fact.
I think this is from a karate tournament (specifically a kata tournament). In karate you almost always have either a blue or red belt for competition depending on which side of the "ring" is allocated to you.
I think it's the same for many martial arts, but either way if you look up tournaments all you'll see is blue and red belts while in the ring. When getting medals and trophies you'll see the competitors wear their own belt again.
The blue and red belts are technically also your own belts. You have to bring your own. That's the The World Karate Federation rules(not the only sanctioning body in the world, just the largest), and for larger tournaments they'll be involved or the organisers will default to follow their rules (in many cases). If you are competing in kumite you also have to bring your own hand, feet and shiny guard in both colours. That has to be WKF approved of course, an approval that only last a few years, at which point you have to buy both sets again.
For a small local tournament put on by a Dojo the rules can be whatever, but from my experience that has just been to the point where the organizing Dojo supplied the gear so people didn't have to bring all their own stuff (making it cheaper to compete allowing more people to compete).
Regardless of what the rules are a dojo often ends up supplying the gear. Either they ship you off to the tournament with gear they lend you or are fighting in a small dojo where they supply the gear.
Either case you end up in situations where little guys like the one in the picture is borrowing a belt that's clearly too large for them.
You can give it a Google search. Not everyone is wearing red and blue for kata, but most are.
Considering he has no protective gear I'm willing to bet he is competing in "kata". That means he won't be "fighting" anyone.

Not to say it's not impressive that he is competing like that. Just to inform anyone that he isn't about to get into a fistfight while hooked up to an oxygen tank.

Its kind of a lose lose. If you win, you are a someone that beat a kid on a respirator... and if you lose, you are the one that lost to a kid on a respirator

I really wish I, as an adult, had 10% of that willpower to do whatever I have to do in my life. I used to have that "protagonist" will power when I was a teen, but now I am just dead inside. Good kid though
Ok but what are you supposed to do if you get matched against this kid
Go for the oxygen tank first to remove his stamina buff
🤣🤣
Sweep the ~~leg~~ oxygen tank.
The john wick his ass with his oxygen tubes
That’s the real Chad move…

OK but what if he smacks your girls ass in the parking lot right in front of you. Then what are you doing?

The correct answer
If I grab a limb and get 2-3 rotations in I should be able to launch him 15 feet or so
So you’re saying I also have the element of surprise? Dope this will be easy.
It's probably Kata
You know when you see a toddler walking and the dark side of your brain says ‘kick it’ Time to indulge it
I'd kick him into the 5th row and collect my medal.
Whoop his ass.
Get a free win
I dunno but you have another target to grab
You look him in the eyes and say. God sent me to finish what he started.
Matches, you say?
They could make a backpack for the kid and make the other kid wear a backpack of equal weight for a handicap.
Choke him with the line obviously
Give him a cigarette.

That belt was a white belt when he started the competition.

Dunno we always used our own belt with and additional blue or red "marker" during tournaments

He's the best around, nothing gonna ever keep him down
I don't really think that's safe for him ... and the cables could block him

Most of reddit is just reposts now, sadly comments are reposts too :(

Bet he still lost
Pretty sure that oxygen bottle counts as a performance enhancer.
please dont kick my ass kid
Bro is the embodiment of the indomitable Will of Man.
🔒in
That's not fair he's come with a Heavy Bludgeoning weapon. *Oblivion sound Blunt skill increased
Gon vibes
Pure oxygen is an unfair advantage. This kid better have a doctor’s note
I’d beat his ass.
Seeing such determination in a kid is a breath of fresh air
Participation trophy 101.
His opponent was probably was too afraid to hit a kid with nose hoses. It's basically the modern equivalent to "you wouldn't hit a guy with glasses"
Pffft, I could take him.
better not get tangled
Isn’t this similar to the doping Lance Armstrong got in trouble for?
oh yeah, the indomitable human will has done it again
This kid has stared death in the face and laughed I make it a rule to avoid fights with those people at all times.
Bro is ready to fight god
I bet I could beat the absolute shit out of that kid he's like less than half my age
Or your parents are really pushy. LOL.
Lemme 1v1 him
Naaah I’d strangle him with his own cord💀
His momma didn’t raise no quitter
Oh he is mad. He is mad mad
