Sato standing over masato
Another K1 max final another “gimmee” to Masato .
Masato should have been beaten by Sato and then should have lost the final on points but it went through to an extension round and the fight was once again handed to him.

Corbett won his fight against the much lighter but taller thai.
Corbett took him out with an elbow which took the thai to a count. When he got up Corbett just finished the job
Zidov was demolished by a body shot from Eli
Sean wright defeated the preacher with solid boxing skills
JWPs fight was apparently awesome. Any other fighter would have been knocked out by Askerov but Parr weathered the storm and went on to win on points.

Two former K1 WorldMax Champions may be set for another rematch. K1 Favourite Masato has made it to the Semi Finals after defeating Drago. He’ll be going head to head with Yoshihiro Sato who knocked out Buakaw :(. This could be the fight of the night.
Whoever wins out of the Masato/ Sato match could potentially fight Andy Souwer.
Though Andy Souwer won’t get an easy ride against Ukranian Fighter Artur Kyshenko who managed to dominate Yasuhiro Kido with fast hands and strong low leg kicks. While just only 21, Artur’s youth may not be enough against Souwer’s experience but either way it should be a great fight.
Steve Wakeling has shown again that he is a fighter to be watched over the next few years with another impressive win.

Big Ben has won the WBC Muaythai Welterweight from defending Champion Nopadeth 2 at Rajadamnern Stadium (4 August).
Big Ben Chor Praram 6 powered over Nopadeth 2 Chuwatana in four of five rounds to finish a comfortable winner 49-7, 50-47 and 49-47.
Big Ben used his superior body strength to dominate the championship to take his place as an elite world champion.
Nopadeth 2 won the third round after trailing in the second, but the final two rounds were the domain of Big Ben who was far too strong in grappling and finished too strong for his slower opponent.
