Artur Kyshenko VS Andy Souwer

FINAL8 : K-1 Rules / 3Min. 3R Ext. 1R
Nieky "The Natural" Holtzken VS Buakaw Por. Pramuk

[Q]

Prediction;

Everyone will whinge that Masato was cotton wooled to his win.

Drgo points
Ablert & Giorgo extension round; Giorgo points
Souwer points; the guy is too slick but I would like to see Kyshenko win
Buakaw points (if he odds drop dramatically before the fight then Nieky for the win, Buakaw gets rich) Someone should buy this like Real Madrid and start paying him properly then he will never lose

[MichaelSchiavello]

At this stage:

Hiroya KO
Kid KO
Watabane dec
Mes KO
Kido KO
Hinata dec
Masato dec
Drago dec
Petrosyan dec
Kyshenko dec
Buakaw dec

Though my thoughts on Buakaw could change, just have to see him Sunday at the press conference. And Kyshenko / Souwer is a real fifty fifty.

The 2 middle fights are very difficult to pick.

Drago KO
Kraus Points
Souwer Points
Buakaw Points

[LeewkMT]

Im confused as to why everyone thinks Souwer will win? He lost to Kyshenko last time and with Masato out of it there is no 1 to stop him this time!!!

[Voice]

everyone isn't. Shiv is backing his fellow Italian. If he doesn't win, he sure will look best though!

I mean to beat Kyshenko??? I cant see it happening (hope i dont end up eating my words :D)

[MichaelSchiavello]

I'm actually backing Kyshenko overall to win MAX this year. Kyshenko vs Petrosyan in the final.

Yeh I think Kyshenko will win it overall too.

[supermario]

Why is this not being shown on Main Event this year? were the buy rates that low?

[Voice]

everyone (including me) has written off Buakaw. I really wouldn't be surprised to see him back to his best and get back in contention for this year's final. If Souwer and Kraus lose (which is a strong chance) then he will hold a lot of experience over the remainder.
Definitely a dark horse to not count out yet. He fought well against JWP but if he steps it up another gear he could be back to his best.

[Hironaka]

Kid looked like **** in has last fight. I would be suprised if he got blasted here.

LOL! Come Tuesday, I'm going to lighten your wallet! What's your thoughts on the can they set Kid up with? Also, any thoughts on Killa Bee's match?

[MichaelSchiavello]

Killa Bee? Kid IS Killa Bee, unless you mean Atsushi Yamamoto... in which case I bet on Watanabe, he is a bit of a loon but a very competent boxer.

I will be bringing a spatula to the Budokan to wipe Kid's Korean opponent off the canvas with.

As for Kawa vs Masato... once again... come tues... ** puts on Pimp voice ** "Bittch betta have my money!"

Atsushi is who I'm referring to.

[Valkrie]

I think the winner of Souwer vs Kyshenko will take the title, though Buakaw can never be counted out and Petrosyan is definately showing alot of future promise.

Giorgo Petrosyan

Artur Kyshenko

Buakaw Por. Pramuk

[Hironaka]

Hiroya didn't make weight. He was like 1.7kgs over according to reports. That is crazy. Apparently they take points off fighters who do not make weight and anything over 2kgs, the fight is scrapped.

Will be interesting to see how they handle this one.

[LeewkMT]

Can we please not have this POINTLESS arguement again lol :D Have another look back through the thread, im not the only one that thinks Kyshenko has it this year!!!

[Valkrie]

Daniel, Petrosyan won't get past Kraus.
Dhzabar should never have been in the K-1 Max final 16.

I think he can beat Kraus but could go either way, will be a tough fight!

[TomS]

I would happily back Petrosyan to school Kraus. Petrosyan is solid all-round with all weapons.

Kraus will be lucky to last the whole fight.

I saw Hiroya in Thailand a few months back and he looked way too thick (muscle, not fat) to make 62kg.

unbelievable...most of you guys have only ever seen Petro fight fight Dzhabar who is a 2nd rater and already you are thinking he is going to school all the old heads. This will be a very close fight but I lean to Kraus.
