    No interest as expected :)

    Intersting to see KO by spinning back fist. I did n't people did them anymore :) used to be a great ol kickboxing move.

    seems to have faded away.

    maybe I am wrong though. I am not a TV watcher , so dont get to see all this cool cage stuff very much. :(

    goes to show that it takes more than deep pockets to put on a top liner mma event - k1 cant simply buy their way to the top

    It's in a ring ;)

    That guy who got ko'd by spinning back gist was like the longest reigning champion in MMA. It was quite an upset.

    K1 can and will!!
    K1 rocks!!

    Tonight I had the choice of a load of idiots on The ultimate fighter or K1....eh K1

    actually what a load of tossers in the Ultimate fighter...have they ever heard of courtesy...i'm aware it's a repeat.....and I'd better watch what I say cos forrest Griffin won the light heavy...and he is SBGi ...and I'd be afraid....very afraid of upsetting the SBG people cos their MMA might stomp me into the ground....oh...i'd better shut up now.....right about now.

    Two things that strike me watching the contestants on the Ultimate Fighter

    1) They get a chance like that to train with the best and they go on the razz???

    2) Most of them are w@nkers. They have very little respect for each other and lack even common courtesy as EPO man says.

    Not being biased but by and large Forrest seems one of the cooler ones and should be a great character in MMA. What the sport needs more of.

    I had the liberty of seeing the ultimate fighter as it happened. I loved it. There were a great range of characters. Stick a bunch of guys in a house and you get a clash of personalities. It's bound to happen. I thought Josh Koscheck was a dickhead. Forrest is one cool guy. Chris Leben has some personal issues but overall he's a good guy and a really good fighter.

    For the next season, they should do less of the stupid challenges (which they are) and show more training, sparring ect..

    What's the point of the above rant EPO_MAN?

    what exactly is your point? - is it that you prefer k1 or a k1 mma show to an american reality show for aspiring mma fighters? - fair enough - strange comparison, but fair enough

    what i am getting at is that although k1 has deep pockets their match making leaves a lot to be desired - they have some good fighters - sudo, royler, bj and will generate some interest with having k1 stars try out in mma but they dont compare to a pride, ufc, euphoria, shooto, kotc etc etc event - imho despite the money they are throwing at these shows - time will tell

    I don't know!!
    I'm just back from oxegen - I was working secuirty there - never again people are just animals who can talk. I have no faith in humanity after all that.
    Kinda forget what i was on about before I went.

    Probably I was annoyed at the fighter - cos i cannot get the time spend watching it back.

    I hated the way they they couldn't take the result of a match well (most of them not all I'm aware). even the winners felt they had to abuse the loser or make "jock" style commment that would be seen in a teen high school slasher film.

    And also just trying to wind up you SBG guys cos it's fun....
    Sorry guys - but SBG(or all MMA really) on a high horse is a joy to behold.
