Brother.....
This is piss weak from BB.
This isn't TopKing pulling a play from the same chapter as "under-fire CEO fakes a heart attack at the share holders meeting" in the desperation book of plays, is it?

Don't want to come across as racist or something but well, this comes from people who thought it was a good idea to put up a movie with Buakaw bullying a dog online and who were quite shocked apparently at the negative response to it so we shouldn't expect anything too intelligent from them I guess.

In a country where you couldn't separate fighting from gambling if you tried, Buakaw files a report against K-1 for ties to (official) online gambling outlets? Oh man, very disappointing stuff from Buakaw and his team..

K-1 Thailand says that they are not connected to online betting sites. K-1 Thailand says that the changes they made to the format of the tournament will allow Buakaw to earn appearance fees that will add up to more than the prize money.
Thai PBS News. 7 October 2014. Buakaw assures that he has no connection with K-1 gambling.
Buakaw Banchamek's upcoming K-1 championship title fight has been complicated by problems after it was found that K-1 had published a link to an online betting site. This has made Buakaw worry that he might be wrongly perceived as being involved in conspiring with gamblers for this upcoming fight.
Buakaw, who has won the K-1 title twice before, said that there has never been this kind of betting on the finals of this tournament in the past, to the extent of having a website inviting fans to place their bets on the fights that will take place on 11 October 2014 in Chonburi. This might give people the impression that the organisers of this event are not transparent, & he fears that if he ends up losing the fight, fans might think that he conspired with gamblers to throw the fight.
Buakaw presented investigators with pictures of the website showing the betting odds as evidence, but he only filed a report in order for the police to be notified of this matter, so that the relevant authorities will monitor the situation. Buakaw assured that he will still participate in this fight in accordance with the contract that he has with K-1 Global. This is just hilarious even for kickboxing standards

How fucking stupid are these people? Holy fuck.
Muay Thai and gambling are joined at the hip, in fact, I doubt that MT would exist anymore without gambling.

reporting your own promoter to the police for absolutely no reason is, with some considerable ease, the most kickboxing thing to ever happen

So K-1 posted the world wide starting times of the Max Finals Live Stream.
Needless to say they couldn't have gotten them more wrong. They listed the starting time in Tokyo being on October 13th for example, lol

Thats the second time they have got something as simple as time difference totally wrong.
As for the Buakaw gambling thing, that is beyond ridiculous. I have personally sat in stadiums in Thailand gambling all night with locals, its the only reason most of those guys even go to the fights. As for it being the first time you can gamble on K-1, that is utter shit as I have gambled on K-1 online years ago. Obviously Top King are trying anything they can to get Buakaw away from K-1.
