K-1 announcing a deal with Spike that will make all K-1 programming in 2012 available as a live stream at Spike.com, with all shows starting in 2013 to be shown on Spike. K-1 held a press conference, where, among other things, they announced 14 names for the Final 16 Grand Prix event on October 14. Here's the list:
Seems like on that list ghita would be a pretty big favorite(assuming hari cant compete) but there are a few names im not familiar with...any kickboxing experts wanna drop some knowledge?
Ashame this never happened a few years back when K-1 still had everyone, I think it could have gotten very popular. Glory have the better roster at the moment, but K-1 have the brand name and TV deal, I feel it is only a matter of time until they get back on top.
This is GLORY's lineup for their HW Tournament (not complete):
Semmy Schilt Remy Bonjasky Peter Aerts Jerome LeBanner Errol Zimmerman Gokhan Saki Sergei Kharitonov Filip Verlinden Ismael Londt Anderson "Braddock" Silva Brice Guidon Jamal Ben Saddik Igor Jurkovic
