Hi Paul,

Thanks for asking about the KB4 this is going to be a on going competition we will be having two other different divisions on the 21st September as well probably looking at the 86kg and 67kg divisions Kickboxing rules only.....
Having had the experience in the K1 and seen how it was run and listening to fighters I thought of this idea.....
I thought that this would suit the NSW fighters more than others because of the restrictions here in NSW and I did not what to see them left behind so to speak.....
Where the style of tournament fighting is concerned...
I would see the fighters after there first fight battered and bruised and thought of a way of fighting where there would be more technique used
and time for them to be able to recover and have extra round of been able to win the fight without having to get rid of there opponents and gives there other fighter time to come back and letting the public see good quality fights...
To be able to fight in this type of tournament you have to be 18yrs and over had over 6 fights in kickboxing or thaiboxing or Boxing...you can be a professional or amatuer........
you will be in two groups A or B you fight 4x2min first up if you win from your group then you proceed to the final round which is 5x2min with 1 min rest......there will be NO DRAWN ROUND NO EXTRA ROUND A WINNER
MUST BE CHOSEN...........
In the Amatuer tournament divisions you must fight 3x2min rds then 4x2min rds final...
You can use this system in Kickboxing, Thaiboxing,and Boxing in which we will be using for the KB4 Tournaments.........
If there are any Promoters overseas who would like to promote this tournament using this system please email and I will send you the copy of the rules & regulations......

KB4 can only be a positive step for the sport Nationwide & World wide...
Regards
Lucy Tui
