[YT]edcEtGqEkK0[/YT] This is their 2007 fight in the K1 max final event. (It wasn't 'the' final though) Buakaw started well with the kicks but seemed to want to turn it into a boxing match, which is not his strongest point. Masato outworked him and outfought him. Buakaw shouldn't have abandoned his bread and butter.
Not seen that. I wonder why they only fight for 3 rounds in K1? Is that to make the pace fast and have exciting fights?
That is definatly a factor, but it is mostly because of the tournament setup, cant have guys fighting 3 long fights in one night. The superfights used to be 5 rounds.
They've changed the rules in an attempt to make it more exciting. They also modified other things like no clinching to make it more fan friendly.
