You must have been watching a different match to the rest of us. If Akebono
could in fact take a punch then he might have lasted a reasonable amount of
time. Akebono is an easy bleeder, I am surprised he wasn't covered in claret.

K-1 is for losers that have nothing else in the world to lose. It's a shame to
see a great champion like Akebono debase himself.
