SuperKombat is holding a "World Grand Prix" starting in an hour, available on Eurosport and whatnot. Four-man LHW tournament and a lot of Romanians kickboxing sloppily. I'll probably watch on the side at #mma

There is every possibility that these live entrances are going to beat the actual fights in entertainment value and I am OK with it.

This is a very bizarre B-level Romanian kickboxing card where dudes have enough skill to defend and avoid getting KO'd but at the same time lack the skill to actually finish the fight. Really nearest anyone got to a fight-finishing move is a dick-kick that got a point deducted.

1. Crocop is now having a rematch with Jarrell Miller, the American boxer who beat him at the last "K-1" WGP and lost an absurd hometown decision

2. that tournament in Dubai went exactly as expected

3. The K-1 show in Thailand has been postponed due to the coup

4. Possibly related to the Noiri business, but something called the K-1 World League was announced, and as with all "world leagues" it naturally is Japanese fighters in Japan. It's being run by the guys who do Krush, and Krush owns. Dave Walsh doesn't seem to think it has anything to do with the other K-1 too.

1. That tournament should be essential viewing for anyone who wants to know about the state of modern-day kickboxing. From the absurd Mirko decisions, to the emancipated horse meat-less Badr Hari, to the Eastern European sideshow acts like the Stoica brothers and the audacity to call itself a K-1 World Grand Prix, all you need to know is that this is the second biggest kickboxing organization in the world putting on the best show they could.

4. I am all for Noiri and co. from childfight leagues to continue beating up on each other with reckless abandon.

both stoica bros

it's superkombat so you'll get at least a few romanian whores stumbling around lipsyncing, maybe a live rap act or two and at least 2 or 3 people coming out to Sail

Also bad ring gear, bad henna tats, bad spinning poo poo and overwhelming 3-0 decisions for their opponents.

Looks like Noiri vs Kaew fell through for some reason and Noiri's fighting a Dutchman instead. Kinda disappointed about that.

Man tonight was not Noiri's night. Teep'd in the dick and then getting his eyelid split open with a flying knee for a cut TKO. Poor guys in tears as he walks out.

Massaro Glunder looked real good though. Freakishly long legs and crisp knees.

Speaking of batshit fights looks like the 55KG WGP event is fully up on YouTube (and several shows after it too) and you really should watch the finals between Takeru and Taiga.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wD874EGZ3Uk

You should watch each guys' first and second round fights too from the same card as well as Massaro Glunder vs Masaaki Noiri from the same card. But watch the finals.

what's been the change lately with this? i thought the chinese government was hesitant to allow combat sports due to it potentially screwing with their traditional martial arts stuff.

Pretty sure Kunlun just drew the highest ratings for broadcast TV in the entire country, and have been doing well on TV in general. You get enough money potential rolling, praying mantis style tai chi can go suck a thousand-year egg.
