Is good to see they want to make global expansion now that ONE is having less and less Kickboxing matches, but I think they should just focus on 75kg and below. Almost anyone good in Japan above 70kg is just a fat lighweight.

Thats kinda cool, though it seems like with Takeru gone K-1 doesnt really have any guys left I'm really wanting to see in the international scene.

I'm guessing Sattari is transitioning to MMA. They should co promote with One

So they not gonna bring in global talent ? I'm not interested then

Miss old real K1. Was the best show. WGPs were better then any ufc cards.

Best Heavyweights are in Glory and best lightweights at ONE. hard to compete there. They should focus in bringing the best 63KG fighters from all over the world. Thailand and China included

Yeah it's not old K1. One also got a bunch of lower weight class talents.

I don't think K1 will get huge without a proper hw division

Was good while it's lasted
