==True!!

It was not even a regulation fight according to their
own specifications of 5x3. it was 5x2.

This it did not qualify as a legal world title fight,
aside from the fact the jury was overuled for no good reason.


They should have made it 5x3 as their own rules require

(and stuck with the original judges decision.)

I wonder which fighter could not do the three minute rounds?

You KNOW that had something to do with the decision to make it a non regulation 5x2 fight. Why else would they waive their three minute round requirements???

I don't believe I have ever seen such bungling, and then pusillanimous caving in to pressure by a sanctioning body.

BTW: I have heard form several people inhthe NL that Soumia's management (Force Management) and her gym (Gym International) have had a strained relationship with Luc Jensen, who was one of the three discredited judges. So why they accepted him in the first place, without saying anything is hard to understand-UNLESS they were just so sure Soumia would easily beat Mary Hart who had been inactive for almost 2 years. I can see why they would think that-Soumia is quite impressive and hasa bright future-if she doesnt get caufght uo in any more controversy.

I'll have more on that and some other intersting matters soon. I am getting lots of e-mail on this from Holland...

Its a real shame that everyone in Holland can't just bury the hatchet, make peace, and work together; because there are so many talented women kickboxers in the Netherlands-it could be a mecca for the sport

It really appears that The WPKL totally dropped to their knees and rolled over after some pretty strong pressure. And now they look simply pathetic.

This story isnt going away....there's much more.
