Well it’s looks like I’m going to take me sometime before Google stops thinking I’m bad for you. Anyway we’ve got to push on. If your running IE or Safari you should be able to view the content with out too many issues.
Many thanks to welovekamatari for the upload. He sent me an email a couple of weeks ago… thanks for sharing. This was similar to the Vintage JWP footage I put up months ago. It’s amazing how much far you can come in 11 years. I guess if you think about it that’s almost an entire career for most. Think of what you were doing 11 years ago? Feels like another life, actually it was…
Wow… can you guess who the Nak Muay is? In this clip Masato is 17 and in is second professional fight. Read more
Back in the Saddle Again

I came across this little bit of news today. I guess the rumors of Buakaws departure from MAX were greatly exaggerated. The White Lotus is slated to fight Takayuki Kohiruimaki in super fight at next months K-1 MAX Japan Tournament. Buakaw is stepping in for an injured Yoshihiro Sato.
The tournament is on Feb 2nd, in addition to Buakaw and Kohi, Artur Kyshenko is also on the bill. I’m pretty sure they last time Buakaw and Kohi fought was back in 2004. I can’t believe it’s been that long…
I’m not really sure what to expect from this one, I’m curious if Buakaw in a good head space. I’m trying to be objective about it, but I don’t see Kohi getting past Buakaw.
