8 events in 9 years and this is where we are.
The latest CKO article addresses the lack of growth by the K-1 USA franchise.

GREAT article! Amen.
I hae minor quibble's with one or two of the fighters you mention,
but in general, i think the article is right on Brother.
I had never thought of the location issues, as other things rotate and
although many boxing events are in Vegas, not all. There is no real
reason NOT to try and get this thing into Atlantic City, Chicago,
Madison Square Gardens, etc etc etc.
Also, the simple fact it has been removed from PPV status makes it
Out of Sight, out of mind for many fans. When it was on PPV iwas
getting friends who do KArate and boxing intersted in it. We could all
get together and watch. Now the casual fans do not even know the event is
happening. Not a good way to grow a fan base.
ANyway, great article and it would be wonderful if K-1 execs read it...
