I'm a little late with this entry, but I had to work during Golden Week (makes you wonder why it's so golden?)

Basically, I thought that the camera work was pretty bad in Hawaii, and I wonder why K-1 allowed it to be shown on Japanese TV?

On to the fights...

1. Sawayashiki vs. Randy Kim

This was a good standing K.O.

2. Mighty Mo vs. G. Kim

Ended with a typical Mighty Mo "hook" K.O.

3. Choi vs. Mike Malone

I thought that Choi got about 2-3 illegal punches on Mallone that the referee didn't notice during the 1st round.

4. Mighty Mo vs. Noroikya

An even better Mighty Mo "HooK" K.O.

5. Remy Bonyasky vs. Graube Feitoza

Honestly, I didn't think that Remy had a chance, but, finally this was an old-school kicking-punching aggressive fight! Like old K-1!

6. Hari vs. Fujimoto

Totally amazing 1R K.O. kick from Hari. I expected this fight to go to Fujimoto, since the referee is typically prejudiced against non-Japanese fighters. But, I guess that you can't debate a K.O.!

7. Mighty Mo vs. Pichoknov

Kyokushin vs. boxing! A good fight! Mighty Mo showed that he could kick, and his 3R low kick was impressive.

In the end, it was a good fight night for Mighty Mo. It makes me think that he may be able to beat Schilt and become the K-1 Champion this year.
