Default Your favorite K-1(MAX) fighter

i don't know if this thread already exist.. couldn't find anyway
but i think its a nice thread to start with

I like to know what your favorite K-1 and K-1 MAX fighters are.
my personal favorites are:
k-1: Peter Aerts (dutch :P)
k-1 MAX: Andy Souwer (also dutch :P)

There are lots of dutch people in K-1 and k-1 MAX. much more than in the UFC or PRIDE or something.. its a shame we dutch people aren't that good in MMA (except Bas Rutten and Alistair Overheem). I guess we have to start wrestling on highschool too.

Here's my MAX list:
#1. Masato

#2. Kyshenko

#3. Buakaw
#4. Kozo Takeda
#5. Albert Kraus
#6. Kohiruimaki

#7. Souwer (But I do hope he wins this year!)
#8. Kido Yasuhiro
#9. Yasuhito Shirasu

#10. Yuya Yamamoto

K-1 for me is harder to order. I'll post that later.

THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING!

Definitely Peter Aerts, he owns all. Too bad he's had his peak already, but man he fought some great matches.

For K-1 MAX, I'd have to go with Souwer. Love his technique, he's completely into the game.

Andy hug was a kyokushinkai fighter right?? isn't that the one who trained under Mas oyama and brought kyokushin to europe??
hoost was a verry good fighter too, he was smart enough to stop when he was still a legend.. a shame le banner didn't do the same, he loses too manny fights bacause of the injury on his left arm.
peter aerst is still fighting good though (but i think It will be better if hes gonna stop verry soon).
I don't watch lots of UFC (in the netherland it wont even come on tv) so i dont know much about cor cop, only that he is a great MMA fighter.

Welcome freek, your first topic is a hit!

Jerome Le Banner, Crocop, Andy Hug are all legends, and deserve the respect they've earned.

My favorite MAX fighters are: Souwer, Kyshenko (he will be the next champion, I think), Masato (love his style), Kohi (looking better than ever lately), and Hong-Man Choi (personal favorite).
