K-1 to the MAX

In all the post-UFC 100 madness the quarterfinals of the K-1 World MAX 2009 tournament kind of slipped under my radar a little bit. Man, I do loves me some Muay Thai. If you’re interested in the full results go here.

If you just want a few highlights, check out Thai legend Buakaw Por Pramuk’s three-rounder with Nieky Holzken (looks like Buakaw has been doing a little boxing; his hands are pretty crisp, although nothing compared to his legs) and Artur Kyshenko vs. Andy Souwer, who fought a battle for three rounds and had to fight an extra round to break the judges’ deadlock.
