I was thinking about these two as well. Can't say I would be exited for either fight though. Actually, I wouldn't mind if they just gave Bonjasky a shot a Verhoeven. He looked awesome against Anderson Silva, his best fight so far in Glory by far. Also on of the worser decisions that I have seen. Didn't looked as good in his last fight against Mirko, but Cro Cop makes it tough for anyone too look good against him.
For his past accomplisments, the fact that he should have won the fight against Silva, and because that's a fight that we haven't seen yet, I think Bonjasky would be a good choice for a contender. Some people would surely moan bout it's legitimacy though.

I remember Quarteron having some hype back then, but he never got to fight in K-1. Looking at is record, he really only had that one fight against Slowinski where he could have proven himself. He really wanted to fight JLB back then but that didn't come to fruition.

Yeah, he's definatly the #1 right now. The Glory HW division seems a little bit weak right now though. I'm having a hard time trying to think who his title defense next could be against.

I see. I was under the impression that those were all the fights that has been announced so far. I didn't expected K1power to be that sloppy. J/K What do you guys think about Daley fighting for K-1? I'm curios to see if they maybe can make him to be a household name within the promotion. Which seems to be difficult considering that he has also stuff going on with Bamma as well as with Bellator. For a UK card he would be good. For Thailand though? I don't know.

I think the card is actually pretty good, given what names are left and considering K-1's current budget which I feel is REALLY, REALLY low. I imagine it to be around SuperKombat level low. The weightclasses make absolutely zero sense though, they need to clearly define them and abide by them. At this point I think they are just happy to have a decent card to put out and go from there. Well, maybe you are more aware of some of the names on this card than me. Because, other than the obvious good MAX final, I only know about Daley and Dida, who both can be seen as rather MMA attractions. As always, it's subjective and a matter of taste. Speaking about that, I do have a hard time believing that the local crowd in Thailand is really all that pumped for this current card either, except for Buakaw of course. I doubt the Thais even know who Daley is. You say "given what names are left and considering K-1's current budget which I feel is REALLY, REALLY low", but I do think that there would be certain recognizable fighters and local talent available, who wouldn't cost the world either. Sure, maybe it's a good thing that they are rebuilding the brand rather slow. I don't know what kind of plan they follow, but it surely makes some kind of sense. But at some point we do need to expect some K-1 quality, not just the logo of it. Maybe some other decent matches will be still announced...

What's up with all these weight classes? 61, 67, 70, 72 kg. Ok, at this point probably not very usefull to complain about this, as the card is pretty weak anyway, but still...

Emanuel Newton vs. Joey Beltran title fight headlines Bellator 124 in Michigan Source and more info---------------------- I like both fighters, and I think especially Newton is a interesting guy and fighter, so I will look forward to this one.

That should be a winnable fight for Kyotaro. I also jsut saw that it's a rematch from not too long ago (his second to last fight). I'm eager to follow his Boxing career more closely now.

LOL No, it isn't. The website is also a fake newssite, like The Onion.
