k-1

Yes, I do. However, to be honest it had a good few years at the start with Andy Hug, Peter Aerts, Mike Bernardo and Ernesto Hoost amongst others but now it's just a freak show with bizarre refereeing decisions. I lost interest when Akebono got in there. What a joke. I feel sorry for Jerome Le Banner in all this, who is trying his hardest despite having dodgy hands.

yeah Jerome Le Banner is a real fighter he won't give up . his arm is broken on three places but he wanted to play :)
but I think Badr Hari was the best in 2008.
 
I do watch it because I live in Japan but have to turn off the God-awful Japanese commentary which unfortunately includes a female celeb who knows little about it and just screams inane comments. It's almost unheard of in my home country of the UK. My all-time favourite is Peter Aerts but alas he is past his best and should retire instead of carrying on against much younger and fitter guys.

I like Cro-Cop but I think he sees it as a bit of a circus and prefers Pride.

I am currently watching the World Grand Prix. Bonjasky was funny at the press conference saying Overeem should stay off the drugs.. :) Overeem has been juicing no doubt!

Cro-Crop did wanna try MMA when he was in K-1 but he went Pride for the money.. That was his main attraction.

Reports are he is signing with Dream (which is K-1 MMA) so K-1 could book him in MMA or K-1 rules if they wanted. Mirko is a shot fighter now though! His legs are totally fcuked!

Its good Keijiro Maeda won the Tournament as Japan needs new stars in K-1, MMA and Pro-Wrestling. That match vs Melvin Manhoef looked kinda strange though as the punch didnt look that hard.
