the heavyweight division was so much more exciting back then. so many legends fighting each other. i hope kickboxing will get back to this level soon.

[@rey024]

Will never happen and here is why: This is the generation that grew up, when media exposure just became a thing on t.v., no internet yet. Bruce Lee, and action films adored by young men created these monsters years later. Kids nowadays are in now way motivated or inspired by greatness on social media because they are not exposed to it. Stuck in their bubble of idiotic search and demand on social media. Did a tic tock video ever make you wanna do anything in life, like inspiration that lasts for years? Bruce Lee did.

I've watched Tyrone Spong fight many times, he's so tough and skilled. Everytime I watch him I can't help but think if he was just a little bigger... He's just at that weight where he's too small for heavyweight but just a tad too big for light heavyweight for him to cut, in other words he's in no man's land, otherwise he'd be a beast.

[@nofearofwater]

I thought that in his fight with Sergei Kharitonov too. He could cut to light heavyweight but a huge water cut before a fight sucks dick.

[@craighuntley6547]

He was a beast LHW by the end of his career. He KOd everyone and then moved to boxing and did the same.

That's me training with MMA. I'm like 141 5"6 I'd get wrecked by the 155ers and 135 ( they walk at 160-175 typically some walk at 155) and 125 is just too sick to cut. I'm in a tough spot.

Awesome fight, two legends in my eyes, Spong has a beautiful style.

[@donniebrasco1364]

Spong didn't stand a chance. The promoters got terrified after alistair annihilated fujita and ended his fighting career. That they had to ban his clinching which is a legal move in kickboxing and mma. Which realistically doesn't make sense that promoters ban that move to give tyrone a chance. Hope he doesn't get in a bar fight. He's gonna be in for a rude awakening

[@MrAchillesM]

@@donniebrasco1364 what do you mean, Fujita kept fighting afterwards. K1 gradually reduced clinch until it eliminated it altogether to keep the pace of the fight high.
