Aaand they announced another fight and it's not Leona Pettas vs somebody LoL K-1 Super Heavyweight - 100kg + Kwon JangWon vs Ando Yusuke
Kwon was recommended by "Sexyama" Akiyama Yoshihiro who K-1 asked to be a K-1 Korea producer but because of his contract with ONE he couldn't accept right now.
The number of fights I can't really comprehend. Like really.

Apparently Ishii Kancho proposed unification of rankings, awards and rules between K-1 and RISE and RISE representatives didn't say "no"

So it's going like this: Wajima Hiromi vs Darryl Verdonk Ouyan Feng vs Pascal Schroth Umar Semata vs Nakajima Rei Davit Kiria vs Thananchai Sitsongpeenong Zhora Akopyan vs Taras Hnatchuk Stoyan Koprivlenski vs Kacper Muszyński Dengue Silva vs Riku
Semenov and Pikeur are out with injuries and they're messing smth with the replacements (I hope they don't put fighter x directly into Final 8 but it looks like that will be the case).
They also added some other fights.
Super Featherweight - 60kg Hirotaka Asahisa vs Remi Parra
Catchweight - 56kg Osawa Fumiya vs Yutaka

So Kacper won the Iron Fighter tournament but says he won't be fighting in the march K-1 event (too soon) so he's probably not in the Final 16 (says he's still going to fight in Japan though).

So the line-up for the Iron Fighter tournament is Mika Tahitu, Kacper Muszyński, Jordy Beekwilder and Călin Petrișor. Although I wouldn't say with 100% confidence the winner is going to enter The Final 16 just yet form past experience.
Now that you mention it, a clinch fighter is an odd choice for K-1 rules but who knows.

Let's hope this guy isn't connected to hooligans. Don't know bro. He is a declared supporter of Hutnik Warszawa, a club that plays on a level of Dutch Vierde Divisie or German Oberliga so he is pretty hardcore. Bet he is a known figure amongst their hools but lets give him the benefit of the doubt.

Meanwhile, it's been 17 years already since Pope John Paul II passed away. He was truly the greatest of Poles. Wonder what he would do in this crazy world of today.

Well, let me just say this. I didn't really like Ukrainians up until four days ago but now I feel a hell of a lot of respect towards them and can only hope I could act this brave in a similar situation. So if Putins objective was to turn all the rage of us normal human beings towards Russia then he got his wish.

This is like the only internet forum I still post on (and even then it's just sporadically right now) and we're in a rant thread but still please bear with me.
Up until now I thought I was a citizen of the world but I don't think I want to be a citizen of a world that does nothing to help an independent democratic country being attacked by bandits so I will return to being just a mere Pole and say this is the first time I'm actually proud that our not-so-special football national team refused to play any games with Russia and that our volleyball team (where we're actually World Champs) did the same. And while I'm finishing typing this it's time to start actually doing things, like helping the Ukrainian refugees that are already in my city but also lobbying to ban all Russians from our competitions. Yeah, I'm all for isolating Russia both financially and socially. I can't imagine treating them in a normal way right now, though I'm sure there are many decent to great human beings among them.

Well. Yeah, that was my mistake it would seem. Like I said, I'm not realle into politics. Fact remains, now it's Ukraine but tomorrow we can wake up with the enemy standing at our doors, or borders to be more precise (though I'm talking striclty about myself now, who knows what that russian scum wants to do really).
And about EU. Many Europeans hate each other because of some stupid mix of historical-ethnical-completely irrational reasons. Nothing really new for anyone living here who isn't a complete ignorant. Still, quite interesting to hear it again.

To tell you the truth I never imagined it would hit me this hard. And I didn't even like Ukrainians. Won't pretend I knew it was inevitable and stuff, cause I'm not into politics and such, so will take miscmisc word for it. Will just add that if it comes down to it I'm ready to fight any crazy communist (and there's not even an ounce of patriotism in me). Hope for the best but prepare for the worst as they say.
