Saying he wasn't a top K1 fighter is indefensible fallacy. He's just obviously not cut out for the kick-free strain of boxing. At least not at heavyweight. |

And if you think i wrote this to say that other better K1 fighters would be good in boxing thats not my intention as you can see in any Badr Hari boxing savior thread ![]() Who retired as a k1 champion?? Kyotaro was never the real champion and if you are talking about Schilt he is not retired he just KOd Ghita few days ago

Are you aware that Tyrone Spong fought super heavyweights with 90 kg??? In K1 its not same like in boxing the real champions are champions that won Grand Prix at the end of the year something that even Badr Hari never managed to win and Schilt won it 4 times like Hoost did and Bonjasky won it 3 times...Kyotaro was pushed hard because he is Japanese because of K1 popularity there, just watch Bonjasky vs Musashi to see the attempted robbery because Musashi is Japanese Bonjasky pretty much dominated but had to fight 2 or 3 extra rounds in a final of grand prix tournament to win it, Kyotaro beat Lebanner because Lebanner refused to go extra round because he felt he was robbed just as Bonjasky was..Kyotaro lost his last K1 fight to guy that is not super heavyweight so he was even heavyweight champion when he finished with K1... So just like i told you Kyotaro never won World Heavyweight Tournament and thats the only thing that counts in K1, there is nothing close to this title! |

![]() Musashi and Kyotaro are both recognized as very good. Not the best, but very good. You're the first person I've ever heard suggest either benefited from excessive gift judging, or only made it to a visible level due to their nationality as opposed to merit. Your original claim that he was never one of the top K1 fighters is still wrong.

Calm yourself.
A) I didn't say you were racist. B) I didn't say Musashi wasn't better than Kyotaro. C) I didn't say Musashi deservedly beat Remy. You're the one who claimed both of them were carefully maneuvered to the top non-meritoriously, and were the frequent recipients of home judging. I know the Japanese guys tend to get the loudest cheers in the organization's home country, no shit - but that doesn't mean there's institutionalized corruption or that Japanese kickboxers who rise up in the organization aren't earning their way legitimately. ...and JLB was in the wrong when he threw his tantrum. There was no robbery there. So please, cite some additional examples of either Kyotaro or Musashi receiving gifts (besides Bojansky) before you paint a picture of Japanese competitors being handed everything on a silver platter just because they're popular at home. |

There actually is a SHW division in K-1. The HW and SHW fight in Grand Prix tournaments but K-1 actually introduced the SHW division and K-1 title belts several years ago. Kyotaro was the K-1 HW champ before moving to boxing.
