The Prodigal hook of Nieky Holzken

Callum Smith's resume took a boost due to this article.

 

@LeftRightDownThePipe I like the taste of penis.

 

He has been out of the ring for over a year now. Hope we'll see him back soon, as he gave Callum a decent fight as a late replacement.

 

Sweet. Yeah I saw Holtzken KO some guy Cosmo Alexandre. Then that Cosmo went and broke a former ufc "star" face (Sage Southcutt

 

I think age has caught up to him. He took a pretty bad beating in One last week. Granted he showed declines in kickboxing even prior to the Smith fight.

 

I think many said he was shot in kickboxing? Then he switch to boxing, it somehow gave Holtzken a second wind. Maybe he should return to boxing

Agree, he's clocking a lot of miles on the odometer at this point

 

Yep I have. Nieky is a real deal striker.

 

If there was a dedicated equivalent of Canastota for Western kickboxing (instead of piggybacking on the international karate HOF, as is the case) Nieky would be first ballot.

 

Something like that needs to happen before Superfoot, Benny the Jet and Don Wilson etc. Die. Western Kickboxing has a very rich history and it's participants deserve to be immortalized.

 

I saw him fight on a ONE championship card. It's an Asian promotion that deals with Muay Thai, Kickboxing and MMA. They have been throwing a lot of money around lately.
Might be that he stays there for a while.

Dude is still a beast at 35. He should stick to kickboxing. He looks a lot better doing so.

 

Sage sucks tbf. UFC basically let him go. Dude was getting knocked down left and right by nobodies in the UFC.
It's believed that ONE made Northcutt out to be a sacrificial lamb. A lot of people were shocked that they threw him in there with Cosmo. And they were right.
So now there is a lot of talk about ONE being superior to UFC. Because a nobody in Sage and past it Eddie Alvarez got flattened.
