i guess 13,600 is not bad for sales considering how bad the show was.

it looks like the matchmakers have lost their nerve. they want kingi and esch to win their respective fights so they arrange it. i wasn't surprised to see kingi's opponent take a dive [he's a fake-wrestler after all] but fujimoto was a bit of a shock.

the silva-musashi match was embarrassing to watch. silva couldn't hit anything and looked hurt by musashi's punches. what is going to happen when he meets someone who has the power to punch through wet toilet paper?

the ref made a bad call against azem so to fix things he made a bad call against shingo. how dumb is that? this fight was decided by and illegal elbow that azem cut shingo with in the first round.

aerts gave the spectators what they paid for, an ass kicking. nak now can claim that he was knocked out by every k-1 grand prix champ except cikatic. i think we should get branko to come out of retirement and give him a royal flush.

the 2 knockdown rule was in effect for all the fights. dumb dumb dumb.


my advice to the k-1 is to use the sideshow freaks as a sideshow. if i can see lebanner-sefo, i don't mind a kingi-silva match on the same card. it is like a little spice. you wouldn't serve a house guest a plate of salt and pepper, would you? no. you put spices on a meal. this show had no meat.
