K-1 Dynamite 2008:Tatsuya Kawajiri vs Kozo Takeda

Kawajiri is a top MMA middleweight fighter. He was number one in Shooto prior to moving to Pride and now K-1. Takeda used to be the Rajamaden stadium champion (one of two top stadiums in Thailand). For you guys who don't know this is like being the world champion in boxing. But this was a long time ago and he is really past his prime, having been KOed in his last number of matches against the top K-1 Max fighters such as of Zambidis & Kohi. Forgot who else KOed him. He's known for his low kicks which while is powerful and has inturn KOed alot of figters in his rise to being champion, is really all he has. He is extremely one dimensional!

Again I and I'm sure most people will think this match will be in Takeda's favour. He was afterall a Muay Thai stadium champion and Kawajiri is a MMA fighter. Again folks, if the embedded clip doesn't work please use the link below.

K-1 Dynamite 2008:Badr Hari vs Alistair Overeem

I don't know why but the end of the year show of K-1 Dynamite this year is choc full of K-1 fighters against MMA fighters in K-1 rules. This is one of them. Badr Hari is the K-1 bad boy heavyweight finalist this year whow as disqualified for his fouls against Bonjasky. Alistair Overeem is one of the top MMA heavyweights in Japan is more known for his standup skills rather than grappling. Despite saying that though, Overeem submitted each of his four opponents in the European ADCC qualifiers to reach first place back in 2005. This surprised alot of people.

However despite him being known for his standup skills I think most people including myself do not expect him to give Badr Hari much trouble. I had trouble playing this video clip when I embedded it. Incase you guys are having the same problem, just click on the link below.

Hari vs Overeem

Russian Uranage throw

I got away with doing a very similar throw to this in one of my Muay Thai matches. I think as long as long as you don't do a full back arch and put more emphasis on the horizontal twist, the ref wil let you get away with it.

It's a good uncommon technique to use in the Muay Thai clinch, especially when you end up at your opponent's side and you have underhooks.

15 year old Mike Tyson vs. Kelton Brown

Mike Tyson when he was 15 years old. He was already punching better than most men at that age. What a monster!

Manny Pacquiao Training Highlight

Great HL training clip of Pacquaio training for his match against De La Hoya. Always inspriring to see all the hard work the pros put in for the short time they're in the ring.

Peter Aerts VS Badr Hari

The K-1 WGP 2008 finals just took place four days ago and what a night it was. I am not a fan of the heavyweights but Aerts vs Hari and Le Banner vs Bonjasky as the first round matches of the night really excited me. Hari was amazing up in the night. Here are Hari's matches for the night. What a natural talent and a dumbarse!!

Manny Pacquiao Vs Oscar De La Hoya Highlights

Highlights clip of the recent Pacquiao vs De La Hoya match. I don't think anyone predicted Pacquiao to win let alone in such a dominating fashion. He absolutely put on a boxing clinic on De La Hoya. I am amazed at how much he keeps on improving! Freddi Roach (his coach) is a genius!!
