mcdonald is one of my favorite fighters. but voodoo is a member so that is where the loyalty lies.

mcdonald probably has the fastest hands in the k-1.

or just things to consider

-legs
not the toughest in the k-1. he has been dropped with low kicks but that was pettas who is scary with the low kicks.
you may want to have a few hard low kicks delived early to keep him from boxing without fear.

-stance
very wide. you usually don't see a stance that wide.
low inside kicks to break his balance and set up head shots while he is recovering his balance may be possible.
if he abandons the wide stance, maybe a few push kicks might tempt him back into it.

-body
mcdonald is still a blown up light heavy.
no one has really tested his ribs. most fighters are so tall they use knees or so strong they try to punch through his guard.

tight defense
-getting a clean shot on his head is tough.
the good news is that his vision is obscured with his hands up like that. hello high kick.

it is a shame i haven't seen carter fight. if i knew his strenghs i might have more to... um more to ignore. right voodoo? LOL.

"dempsey though the ropes"
speaking of dempsey, i wonder why josh dempsey wasn't give consideration this time out. he looked okay against musashi.
