I hope Jerome kills Choi. God knows he won’t get a decision…
Hey now. Choi earned his spot.
But yes, Choi’s gonna DIE!
I would love to see LeBanner whip Choi’s ass, but I don’t know about the reach disadvantage. I’ve never really seen him hurt in a fight.
Did anyone see Shilt vs. Choi? How much damage did Choi take in that one?
I thought the previous year’s K-1 World Grand Prix winner was supposed to get a bye into the final eight, starting one or two years ago.
LeBanner has the power and ability to destroy Choi. He has that huge ass chin that might as well be a bullseye for LeBanner’s right.
I’m really pulling for Sefo or Jerome to win this one. They both have come so close, and are probably the best fighters to not win a Grand Prix.
Great fight!! Unfortunately the judges got it wrong. Choi deserved the win after 3 rounds, and then again after the extra round. Great fight nonetheless. Choi has improved a lot, and Le Banner did well to get in a few nice head shots.
Also, the Ruslan Kareav/ Hari fight was a joke. Hari was clearly down when the blow that ultimately ended the fight was landed. I think K-1 has their favorites, Kareav is one as is Le Banner.
