got over the disappointment of his fight with Haumono falling through last Friday to win an 8 man elimintion kick boxing tournament last night in Melbourne. Pieter won the first two bouts on points before scoring a KO win in the final, top effort. Hopefully some more details to follow.
Does Cronje have a kickboxing background? Or was he a late call up who happened to bash all the pro kickers in the comp?
Ex South African champ I believe in kickboxing. Whats amazing is he was prepared to face Haumono two days before the tournament!
Yeah I reckon most guys who had pumped up for a big fight like that would not even think about fighting in a kickboxing fight two days after they were supposed to fight, he must be one tough mutha
He really done well and for a guy that did not done any kickboxing for the past 3 years it was great. Yup the promoters in Melbourne want him to fight for the super heavy weight kickboxing title next year. Only bad things about the knockout tournament was that Pieter had to fight in the semi final against his mate from Perth Andre. But they done well.
Thats possible mate but i think he will fight around march next year for the WBO pan african title or if he can he will fight Solomon. Its a shame the tournament was called of. I think with all the heavys together it would be a great tournament
I think leapai is world rated it would be a good thing for cronji to fight for a world rating i watch the fox fight when they fought last time i thought cronji won!
great news!! he is a total weapon doing that :good thought he was hella tough, training muay thai does that too you :deal
