We obviously have different opinions.

I have mine on K-1 style Kickboxing, the techniques allowed under K-1 rules ( ie knee-kick as stated on the in the official K-1 rules on the K-1 website ).

We also seem to have different views on Muaythai.

Mine are that, like the rules of K-1, I only regard a bout as a Muaythai bout if it is under the same rules official rules, in this instance - as used in the Thai stadiums of Raja and Lumpini, ( not much U.K. invented 'C' class and 'B' class going on there ). I would not call a 'C' class or a 'B' class bout Muaythai.

Now, I am posting on your HGH promotions threads, or anyone elses that is promoting a Muaythai show and then putting on 'C' class or 'B' class bouts.

NO I AM NOT!!!


All I am doing is looking to promote a Grandprix Tournament, using the same Kickboxing rules as are being used by the main promotions in Europe, which as K-1 style, include Knee-Kicks.

I am doing this to give U.K. fighter that may have aspirations to compete on these events, valuable experience under the specific kickboxing rules. Along with this, offering a decent prize fund, by U.K. standards of £5'000.00.

Also there potentially will be some International K-1 and Muaythai bouts on this show. No need to ask me if they will be 'C' class or 'B' class.

So, good luck with your Muaythai promotion, and its 17 "Muaythai" bouts ( all under the same rules as used in the main stadiums of Thailand? ). I hope this goes well for you.

Maybe, with a bit of luck the £5000.00 - 70kg Grandprix tournament will be a success to.

Although, maybe not - with all the negativity that has been drawn to it. Time will tell.
