<img src=icon_smile_approve.gif border=0 align=middle>:)I still haven't seen the replay to Prince Amirs show but would like your comments on the judging seen it was the issue in the
International Kickboxer mag last issue and got a real bad wrap on this forum and Tariks forum,I was able to use my judges and referees on the night what were your thoughts?I only think it is fair to give us a fair go on your thoughts..
I must say they were a 100% better than the last 3 shows that have been shown in NSW....
Looking forward to your comments...
Regards

Ps* especially Michael Schivello and Mark Castignini,it is only fair you let us know seen it was a big issue in the New Year.....

It's funny that we don't notice these when it's good judging. I guess we just take the officials for granted as doing their jobs the right way.

I really wasn't paying too much attention, but I can tell you Lucy that the decisions didn't outrage me.

A couple of guys here mentioned they felt Sonne had won, but I think it's just one of those things. Personally I felt that it was Badadato's by a small margin. Regardless, it didn't get anyone too riled up.

Woah, and how about that flying push kick by Sonne Vanathy. Get him in the next 'Matrix' movie I reckon.

I saw it 3 times. Once live and twice on Fox. Man, that Meads V Cedric fight was great to watch. I still can't get over how many of those super hard kicks Shane threw, and just as remarkably Cedric took without buckling.

well you know me lucy and you know i have been to millions (j/k) of your fights and was also there with my gimp leg at the prince amir show and NOTHING seem to bother most ppl in the crowd or me as i was walking about taking a few personal photos,,the badato vs sonny fight would have been the hardest fight to judge as it was damn close

only problem i had was the $55 cover charge and NO food to purchese..but thats not your fault or anything

p.s i have it on tape if you need a copy :-)
