Surprising results. I thought Kido or Ologun are
going to win
I have to add that Ologun has been 1 point
reduction in all his rounds because his weight was
800 gr more than the limit. So surely if he had
been in the correct weight, he would win the fight
with Kohi, i think.do you see Yuichiro "Jienotsu" Nagashima??? Its so funny, he is a freak
Look: h ttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_uh8pDcEiA
Man I gotta see this one!! Looks like Kohirumaki
showed great skill that night. Plus there seemed to
be a nice balance in dec and KO wins. Can't
wait to see these matches! Thnx for posting
asfranco88.
Look, this is the comment of one fan of the event,
it isnt mine, but i think is good:"Did you guys actually seen Kohi's performance today? It was atrocious. It was obvious that he hasn't learnt anything from his last fight. He just kept running around, clinching, and throwing barely legal knees and rabbit punches after clinching.
His first fight (against Andy Orogun) was so boring that it was the only one out of the tournament to be cut to the last round. And even then he kept clinching so much that the referee had to give him a yellow card.
His next fight was supposed to be against Hinata (who managed to take a victory from Kido), but since he was injured, Kido (who could barely raise his right arm after having it practically destroyed in his last fight) fought (rather half-heartedly) and lost.
His last fight was against a man who had taken hideous damage in his previous two fights, was the clear underdog even in terms of actual ability, and he still just tried to keep running after taking a down. And just after Masato said that Kohi was just the kind of weak-willed and unfocused fighter to screw up, his opponent retook a down.
It's nothing more than luck that Kohi managed to actually win the tournment. Praise should belong to Nagashima (the cosplaying guy who destroyed Hayato then fought an excellent fight with Yamamoto before having to stop from a cut), Hinata (who was actually downed by Kido but managed to take the fight with skill and a huge lots of guts) and most of all Yamamoto. These guys are the ones who showed K-1 spirit.
No wonder Kohi is being slammed across 2chan. He really doesn't deserve to go onto the Final16"
I cant say nothing, i have to wait to see the event, and the i will coment. Seriously Kido defrauded me...
