K-1 MAX LIVE ON MAIN EVENT ... JULY 7

Reasons to Watch K-1 MAX LIVE on Main Event

F) YASUHIRO KIDO -- JAPAN`S NEW MUAY THAI STAR

Many of you may not be too familiar with the name Yasuhiro Kido... but you will be hearing about it for a long time to come.

Kido is the 26 year old who has set Max in Japan alight this year when he won the K-1 Japan tourney seemingly out of nowhere. The tourney was action-packed and in the final against Hayato, Kido was a monster, KOing his rival in the first round after having defeated Andy Ologun and Keiji Ozaki in style earlier in the night.

Kido is a Muay Thai stylist and it tells... he loves to use his knees to great effect -- just look at the way he knee-****d Korean K-1 Max champion Chi Bin Lim in just 30 SECONDS in the Final 16, knocking Lim out with one of the best knees to the jaw you`re ever likely to see.

Kido comes into July 7 on a ripping 7-fight winning streak, but now it`s time for him to meet Max`s A TEAM. How will Kido fare in the bigtime?

Kido is full of energy... he is hungry... he is on a roll and even though he doesn`t have Masato`s movie-star looks, the fans have embraced him. He`s funny too. Did you see his speech after he knocked out Lim in Hiroshima?

As he bounced around excitedly... "Wow... Wow... Wow... I mean Wow... Wow... Oh Wow... Hahah... I won! Wow.. Wow!!"

It was hilarious and also refreshing to see just how much his move to K-1 Max`s top flight has meant to Kido.

I really like him. He`s great to watch and uses all his weapons well. He could be a threat to Kyshenko. Mark my words.

Here is his AWESOME KO of Chi Bin Lim... the KO happens at 03:42 in the video... wow wow wow!

After winning the K1 Japan in a real bash-a-thon tourney of local fighters and a couple gaijin (an out of form Olugun in particular) it was good to see Kido resolutely earn his place with one of the KO`s of the year. Lim is a bit of a journeyman so will be interesting to see if Kido has what it takes to cut the top 8 standard.
Kyshenko should be too good for him but he won`t give a lot away in reach so he has a real chance (until the second round that is).
