    Not a fan of Solak, but he is putting on plenty of cards.
    I wouldnt complain too much.

    JUST a little bit of info on mike here ,mike was a boxer before he started kickboxing ,he was the national greek champion when he was like 16 fighting guys much bigger in their 20s and 30s ,he was selected to fight at the athens olympic games provided he ditched his kickboxing sponsorships .ive trained with australian champions and trained with mike ,he is on a different level . remember bassim chami fenechs up and comer,god bless his soul, zambo fought in melbourne went to fenechs gym the next day sparred chami with no headgear and 16 ounce ,basim had headgear ,mike anialated him,they stopped the sparr ,bassim was gettin hurt ,billy jumps in and goes thats enough. freddie roach has contacted mike and asked him to make the transition.

    mike loves kickboxing to much though.man if u guys watch him train ,hes a monster . remember why mike tyson was so successful against all his bigger opponents,power and speed to weight ratio was phenomonal,combine that with skill, heart and chin and there you go a monster is made.:yep

    Bless his soul, but i never rated Chami that highly.
    It would be intresting to see how Zambo went against a Waters type.
    King Davidson would destoy Zambo thats 4 sure.

    Davidson is awesome Maco.
    Ask Huricn or any of the guys that have seen him spar & train.
    1 of the best talents in the country & will be heavily avoided.

    thats why he should prob get out of this country and try make it in the u.s., but i get a feeling cos he keeps his hands low he will be caught at some stage or another during his career...
    kegsy are you a boxer? or do u just know certain people?

    I have looked and looked and have never found any evidence of any Zambidis boxing bout. Furthermore have never found any evidence of any Olympic team consideration let alone selection. Can you provide these elusive stats? You would think that somewhere there would be some form of results recorded but absolutely nothing.

    whats king davids weight ? and i highly doubt any one near mikes weight would destroy zambo given mike gives up kickboxing and boxes straight up, given time he would clean up. look how far briggs and solimon have gone in boxing from a kickboxing backround, zambos got more talent than both of them , and he started as a champion boxer also.:yep

    King Davidson fights today at 69kg, junior middleweight.
    Undefeated prospect with an awesome amateur record....probably the most avoided in the country.

    zambidis would get beaten up by good pro boxers they would use his hight and give him beatings

    how was zambidis a professional fighter selected to go into the olympic games?

    once again its corruption lol as i said before it was in greece.... just like the euro cup you couldnt seriously believe they won that fair and square could you???? the olympics were well behind schedule and they needed a boost(i have a few theories)
    zambidis wouldnt beat alot of boxers outside australia, he struggled with ozkan who had a war with chong nee, so there wouldnt be much room for improvement.... especially at zambos age...but i still reckon zambo is a crazy fighter, he possesses good power

    Always interested on the kind of coin in kickboxing.
