Well, my guess is the Dutch dominance for over a decade now. Aside from one or two skilled opponants (who more than often needed help from the judges, read:Musashi), most competitors simply didn't last long enough. Most competitors are intimidating looking, really big of very one-dimensional. The talented fighers, such as Ruslan Kareav, LeBanner or Ignashov all fight with too much passion and take too much risks. For most people around this world they don't have fighters in K1 to support that are serious contenders for the championship. Even as a Dutchman who loves k1, it is really really frustrating that the majority of the foreign fighters never seem to learn to defense the low-kick and thus being chanceless on forehand......
Your list is 100% heavyweights. :blood P4P can include other weights, you know. If that was a true p4p list it would need names like Mayweather, St. Pierre & Petrosyan.
I said/meant similar to pound for pound you plonker. Obviously a cross for cross ranking dosent really have an objective measure, but in my mind its who would you take into a combat situation kinda of thing. Also Mayweather is a joke compared to the big boys, pound for pound included...Pacman stops people who average 10 pounds more than him, Fedor destroyed men twice his size, etc Mayweather relies on 3 men sitting at ringside raising his arm.
