JWP vs. Kozo confirmed!

[( o Y o )]

TITANS 2nd was announced in a magazine today. I believe the date was August 22nd, and the headliner was announced as JWP vs Kozo once again. Lets hope it comes off this time!

[Jofeljoh!]

Great! This should be an interesting matchup. Could go either way, but I think JWP will win. His defense will neutralize most of Kozos weapons.

[Cracked_Knuckle]

Just a month after winning the MAX title he os off fighting Kozo for another? Gotta respect a man like that.

[Global Honored]

Great News! Definately will be watching TITANS now.

Is this for any Title? As I remember a report a month ago saying that Kozo would be fighting for a Title at the up-coming TITANS event.

I believe it is for a title, though I didn`t get the chance to read which one as I was on my way somewhere else when I dropped in just to check.

I just checked and found this by JWP on Blitz


The fight will be for the WBC world Muay Thai title at 70kg and hopefully I will be the first Aussies to bring one of these belts back to Australia. From what I am told the belt is the same as the WBC world boxing titles ones, the green one. I am very excited about being given this chance and really want to do well. I have the Max first on the 20th of July then a month later will fight for the WBC belt. If I can win both K-1 and WBC belts I will be one very happy Queenslander.

I pick Takeda to win by TKO leg kicks!

This is great news. I just hope this TITAN event goes to DVD

Will they allow Elbows in this? I mean this is a "Muay Thai" title... not the watered down "Thaiboxing" we're used to.

[larsenator]

It is FULL rules! :)

Great! Ive seen JWP throw some mean spinning elbows.

Kozo has a great Muay Thai resume, but I gotta go with JWP on this one. He has great power in his hands and Kozo has trouble with guys that have good hands. I mean Buakaw doesn't have good hands but when he went to them he won. I think that JWP will Knock him out.

[mugen67]

I like Kozo, but he's taken too much damage at this point in his career. He can't really take a good punch anymore. I think JWP's hands will be too much for Kozo, but of course, Kozo is still a dangerous fighter.

I hate this fight as I love watching them both. I do think JWP will take this one though.

Are you guys sure it is full MT rules? The last titans event was not.

[larsenator]

I am quite sure this is the first ever WBC Muaythai world championship bout and they have stated that they follow the sports authority of Thailand (FULL rules).
Hopefully it WILL be.

[Kamatari]

Hopefully it WILL be.
There's a Rajadamnern title match on the same card, go figure.

[larsenator]

I did figure - now you do the same.

Here's a hint mate: http://forum.kakutougi.info/showthread.php?p=34961#post34961

Already read it, in fact when it was officially announced there was no mention of WBC involvement which lead me to believe that it would just be a standard fight. Thanks for the news, anyway.

I don't know, you're just trying to one-up me aren't you? :( English is not my first language I think the "go figure" part was a bit much but I usually notice stuff like that the second or third time. And I'm from OSAKA, that's an excuse right? ;P

[larsenator]

Don't worry mate. I am Danish and misunderstand people on forums all the time my self as my first language is not English. :)
