Why not call it 'Japanese Kickboxing'?

Why are some many of you trying to justify stealing the name of another brand?

How many of you have actually fought official K1 fights or even watched one??

This whole debate is a joke... K1 is a brand and should be respected. I do use the term K1-style very carefully, but I have actually fought, train and worked with the K1 in Japan. I now meet so-called K1 champs who have never even been anywhere near the official K1 and I find this insulting to genuine K1 fighters.

I have been reluctant to post anything on this subject, but after reading all these posts it now seems obvious that something should be done by the K1.

Maybe the K1 will police it, maybe they wont, but until they say anything more I think we ALL should respect the brand.

Take some time to research the history and origins of the K1, Kyokushin, Kenji Kurosaki, Maeda, Ishi etc etc...

Osu!
