Wow!

No Peter Aerts on the card this time. He got minor injury from his last fight.

[Dikslapu]

Butterbean will eat him alive, literally!!!

[TheRockSays]

This topic should be moved to the K-1/Boxing forum.

[Booker M]

No, this topic should not be moved, because as stated, the fight will take place under MMA rules.

[sleekdom]

sheesh, what is the weight difference fr this fight, 170 lbs?

[Tony Montana]

This is a spectacle, nothing more. If Genki wins, does it really elevate his stature as a lightweight? I don't think so. If Butterbean wins everyone will say Genki was outweighed. Thank goodness that the UFC has ceased making these ridiculous kind of matchups. This isn't sport! This is a spectacle.

He got you there...

Chalk one up for Robby.

[claymore]

What a stupid fight. I love Sudo and he's the much better fighter but exactly how would Genki get 350 pounds down to ground? Obviously if the fight somehow goes to the ground it's over.

[D241]

someone having bj penn as an avatar i'd figured you'd think that a small guy does have a chance.

i actually think that this could be a very instrementul fight because Butterbean is actually respected by alot of people as a good boxer, even though his size and whatnot, he has punching power and is a unique speciman at his build but what he can do.

Genki is already known well in mma, he has done well with k-1 and mma, and this could be a very good bet for people to make. which is better, boxing or mma?

i think being that mma is a mixture of everything/anything, and boxing is only one thing, it's fair enough to say that it should be decided in mma rules, so the boxer can use what he knows.

i say Genki by something crazy.

[Lefty]

i wonder if bean has any grappling experience? i defy you all, and say bean by ko.

[Cbear]

This is horrible booking. Skill level not withstanding, there must be "some" parity in size of fighters. Next thing we know, K-1 will announce Emmanual Yarborough vs a crippled, blind, midget. :?

[Lefty]

$50 on the midget! :lol:

[Shamrocked]

i wonder if bean has any grappling experience? i defy you all, and say bean by ko.I'm not sure why I always seem to find myself doing this, but I too pick Bean by KO. As hard as Bean hits (with MMA gloves no less?), I hope for the sake of Sudo's mental health that he gets Bean down without taking a shot, but he's bound to eat something. :|

[cyonbloodbane]

I also think Bean will murder the poor little guy, Bean is not only a hard hitter anyone who has watch him fight regualrly knows he is a very accurate puncher his landed % is one of the highest out there ad with the weight, he will be hard to take down. This is gonna hurt.
