Why San Shou (Chinese
kickboxing) Stands Still - article submitted by David Ross
of NECAF (NorthEast Combat Arts Federation)
AX note: Very important article that
addresses a criticism of the USA WKF
organization. If what he says is true, there is
no denying the selfish attitude of the USA WKF
organization. If you have enjoyed watching San
Shou before or plan to in the future, please be
aware of the information in this short but
concise article.

Thunderzone IV -
Australia's Best Vs The Rest! - A message from Robert
Wilesmith of the Thunderlegs organization in
Australia regarding the proposed THUNDERZONE IV
event.
AX note: There are some accusations by
Robert Wilesmith of people from other
organizations. Is it nothing but a marketing
ploy, or are the accusations true? Or both? Read
what he has to say and you make that decision.

AX
Updates -
- Soon, the Kickboxing
news will start to be archived. I will place a
link to the archived section from here.
- The webmaster of AX,
Brian Ritchie, is going to be moving in the early
part of January to Dallas, TX. With this move,
there will, understandably, be a slight pause in
the news updates unless Andras can find extra
time to cover them.
- We will be working on
creating a "Support the sport" page for
Kickboxing which will include ways of contacting
your local TV and cable companies to let them
know that you are interested in watchng
Kickboxing. If anyone has any valuable
information to add that pertains to the world of
Television, please contact us. axcontact@yahoo.com
- The
AX Message board. Use it! Promoters, fighters, and
managers, it is one of the best ways to keep in
touch with the fans by asking them questions and
bringing up KB discussion. Fans, it is one of the
best ways to voice your opinions about the sport.
SPREAD THE WORD.
- We are thinking of
making AX T-Shirts, posters and other ideas, sold
at cost. We might post some example graphics up
in the AX Art section.
- We are also thinking of
switching to our own domain name. If anyone has
any suggestions for these ideas, contact us axcontact@yahoo.com

We
have recieved a response from the K-1
Japanese site regarding the lack of K-1
USA web page support.
Thanks
to Chris Hernandez for contacting the K-1
organization. This is their response to
his email:
Dear
Chris,
Thank
you for your inquiry. We just updated our
English pages, so please take a look of
it. Also, we are surprised that we still
have link with k-1 USA. It is totally
different organization who is running the
site, and we are going to provide our own
English pages.
Noriko
Fukushima
Ax
Comment: That is great news. At
least K-1 Japan is aware of the
situation. I wonder if word will get
through to the K-1 USA organization now.
Maybe this will threaten the relationship
between K-1 Japan and Art Davie.

Looking for competition
"down under"
Here is an email from a
promoter/manager in Australia who is

Any promoter that is interested should
contact him.
Dear
Brian,
I
am putting an official challenge out to
any Sanctioning Body, Promoter &
Trainer with my fighters for either their
fighters "World" Titles or the
Vacant Titles with my champion fighters.
They have bashed everyone here & are
looking overseas.
They
are as follows:
Ali
Hallak (55-58kg)
Marcus Mangan (64.5-68kg)
Grant Barker (92+kg)
Hiriwa TeRangi (95+kg)
I
also have top Amateur fighters at all
different weights form 45kg right through
to Super Heavyweight.Well, there must be
someone "ANYWHERE" in the World
who might want a piece of this action. I
also have a Pro Female fighter named:

is willing for the challenge to bring us
over there will get the return deal here

More comments about the
disappointment of the K-1 USA page:
I am also
disappointed in the quality of the USA K-1
Homepage. I also e-mailed them trying to obtain
information for television broadcast information
of the Grand Prix to no avail. The Japanese K-1
homepage was excellent until they dropped their
English page (hence the inception of the USA
K-1site). K-1 is a huge success in Japan
unfortunately, it is my opinion that Mr.Ishii has
made a poor choice of partners for K-1 to be
successful in the United States. My suggestion is
to e-mail the home office in Japan
(www.k-1.co.jp) and let Mr. Ishii know that we
need better information from the Japanese site or
find partners who will keep the USA site updated
and more informative.
Gerri
Ax Comment: Thank
you very much Gerri for your opinion on things. I
wonder, is K-1 listening?

K-1 Web page
woahs!
This is a message that
was sent to the K-1 USA web page message board. Check out the K-1 USA page to see what this message is
referring to.
Attention all K-1 fans
who can read this!!!!!!!!
Abandon this Piece of shit Web site immediatly!!!
Because appearantly that is what the staff
did...One day before the finals in Japan, in My
opinion the Superbowl of MA\kickboxing, and We
have not had an update for over Two months...Also
the last time I tried to use the K-1 usa
hyperlink to E-mail them it returned the mail
saying it was not active.. So do yourself a favor
and check the www.ringreport.com or Ax kickboxing
page for more info on K-1 because You are not
going to get it here... Please send me any
comments You may have.. Do me a favor and post
them for anyone who has not figured out that the
K-1 USA has abandoned Us. But then Please E-mail
Me directly because unless I hear Directly from
The Staff at K-1 I will not be back.....
Regards,
Chris Hernandez iceman@cyberg8t.com
AX comment: I would have to say that I have
also had frustration with the K-1 USA page. I was
first impressed with how much was developed in
what seemed like a short time. However, the
site's maintenance leaves much to be desired and
that is something that I don't expect from a
commercial site such as the K-1 USA site. The
source of K-1 USA information, it would seem.

official!
The North American San Shou
Championships will
take place May
14-16, 1999 at the Hotel Pennsylvania in New York
City. The amateur
tournament with 10 weight classes will take place
over two days so no competitor will have to fight
more than twice a day. The relaxed schedule will
also allow us to have more super fights between
the big names in the sport! AND TO TOP IT OFF,
since the cable broadcast is going to be tape
delayed, we can include BOTH the finals and the
superfights in the programing. Everyone will get
the recognition they deserve and no one will be
left out. For more information check the North

trouble' you were talking (See Ax news Oct 8th) about deserves more
acknowledgement than you think! I spoke the
WPKL-guys and the thing the city Council is
talking about is banning all martial arts that
aren't acknowledged by the NOC/NSF! That to me
would suggest that Thai boxing and all other
martial arts have to be Olympic! We have to take
rigorous action to preserve our sports. I've
started a big letter for the City council and
I'll send it to theWPKL, they know how to get it
at the right place.The word on the streets is
also there is an huge demonstration coming up!
