At the "Its Finally On" fights with Zambidis & Behic, Tarik publically mentioned that he would see to a bet against Fenechs boys for a sum of one million (if remember correctly). With so much talk about promoting kickboxing downunder, wouldn't that money be better spent promoting a "winner takes all fight"? I am sure with that kind of purse, we would get some big names here fighting ( Le Banner, Aerts, Cyril, Greco etc)
Maybe Tarik should tell Fenech to stop wasting his time with his little fighters, and concentrate the $ on the bigger picture.
Any comments?

Cheers

The million would be a bet not prize money from my understanding. Meaning he wants to win a million being supremely confident. The K-1 GP winner gets about half a million. So he wouldn't be paying anybody a million to fight.

I rercently spoke to nader and he confirmed with me that Tarik wants to fight in "kickboxing rules" and Nader declined and so did team fenech.
