So Whats The Story With Heath Herring And Yoshihiro Nakao

Now i salute Herring for knocking Yoshihiro out after he tried to pull that kissing shit.. and i commend the officials for calling it a no contest instead of an L for Herring, but whats this i hear about his coaches attacking Herring in the back after it was over? I must've missed something.,.

And what (if any) concequences did he face after KO'ing him? I remember seeing the video but i never heard what the aftermath of the whole situation was.

i always thought that whole situation was BS....

in the run-up to that fight, there had been a lot of talk that Heath's knee was still injured after the Greco fight and that he might drop out....that would have been damaging for K-1 given the hype the Pride Shockwave show was getting, especially the Ogawa-Yoshida dream match-up....

then that little acting job by Nakao happens and the fight doesn't go down...a nice, memorable moment for the viewers at home....

Heath was required to attend sensitivity training, and counselling to help overcome his rampant homophobia. From what I hear he had to watch 100 hours of "Queer eye for the straight guy". Apparently, it has worked because went I met Heath he tried to kiss me!

I was more skeptical of how such a pussy looking punch KO's Nakao, that punch was more of a weak jab not even thrown with the worst of intentions.

herring should have just beaten him then kissed him back after



either the whole thing was staged by K1 due to herring beiong injured and creating a story, or herring mugged himself out of pay for the fght

Unexpected and right on the button. Plus it had decent power. Watch the gif closely and you can see his head really snaps to the side.
