Jonno: I am in agreement with you so i don't know how i've got it arse first.

Two questions for anybody:

1) Why does the K1 organisation refer to it's style of sport as 'Kickboxing'?

2) And is this prestigious, pioneering organisation wrong in doing so?

KICKBOXING is a generic term for certain boxing & kicking sports such as:

K1 is a 'form' of Kickboxing.
As is Full Contact.
As is Low Kicks, aka Freestyle, aka International Rules.

I would even put Muay Thai under the Kickboxing 'umbrella' sporting list, much to the sheer gut-wrenchingly disgust of the muay community regarding such a thing :) (joke)


BUT SERIOUSLY, IF K-1, GLORY, SUPER KOMBAT, ETC, CAN LABEL THEMSELVES AS KICKBOXING SPORTS, THE WHO ARE WE TO STATE DIFFERENT?

If i took full contact and said i was now going to permit elbow strikes, does that not still make it kickboxing? It no longer makes it full contact, but surely it's still KB.




And yeah, back to topic. Looking forward to seeing the upcoming Glory fights, can't wait.
