Sefo, Buakaw, Kraus? Surprising, but if it comes off anything like this it will be very cool.

Surprised to see neither Hoost or Aerts there.

Yes, I also saw the interview, but I guess they are just plans, as the event is still VERY far. Bonjasky was there in the audience (It's Showtime 75 kg GP final).

i think simon rutz want a le banner - sefo match...

[( o Y o )]

I`d be shocked of FEG allowed that fight to happen outside of japan.

They are two of the biggest ticket movers here after all.

[il.puparo]

from 97, feg don't put le banner - sefo on the superfight, and i think many fans want this match, is my assumption, would be awesome

[( o Y o )]

I agree.....and both have got bigger and bigger followings since their last match. I think K-1 have hoped they'd meet in the GP

[AKA]

like always....we didnt sign anything ;)
We did not even discuss!

But I know that JLB would like to fight again in Holland so..... we are gonna wait and see whats happens!

[Mago]

Hahaha, this is so typical. It's confirmed then, the "plan" is to have all the mentioned fighters "and more", but the fighters themsleves don't even know their names were mentioned right now...

After all the rude people last year?

It's the dutch way of doing bussiness. Big mouth, lot of noise ... but in the end they get the job done. Luckily the dutch fighters (hoost, aerts, bonjaski ) are very keen on fighting in their home country and guys like JLB always accepts big challenges like a real fighter ought to. It's gonna be another great event for sure. I heard they wanted to expand the event with an even bigger audience.

Shinbone, I think JLB got treated well in Amsterdam by the organisation. He could enter as second man, got a nice entrance ovation, ... of course there was the decision and people insulting aka and team JLB, but maybe you have that everywhere ... except in japan.

They are planning to expand upto 40.000 people.
Yes, the organisation was good, but the way some people insulted AKA, his team and JLb was outrageous. This is not the way people should react to fighters, but that has everything to do with alcohol. A lot of people were drunk, so I hope they don't serve alcohol nect year, but I doubt the will.

It's not just the alcohol really, people here are just too spoiled.

That boo-ing in the audience is because people here are spoiled, but verbal assaulting against fighters and their mangers was caused by alcohol.

You're right. The actual name-calling came from drunk dumbasses.

Wow, this is looking pretty far ahead isn't it?
