ESPN2 Showing "New" Kickboxing Shows

After replaying the same handful of K-1 shows the past few years, ESPN2 actually showed some fights that I hadnt seen before this weekend. They were all from a show in Belfast, Northern Ireland. The headline fight was a thai Sudskorn vs John Storey. Among other fights shown over and hour and a half was a superheavyweight fight with Oliver Van Damme. The announcers said
that Van Damme had just been k.o.'d be Jerome Lebanner a few months before, so I guess this show is from last year? This wasnt the greatest show, but at least ESPN2 is giving us something new for the first time in years.

I saw it, Pretty entertaining, but for an ESPN Telecast, the talent was kind of weak, so was the production value. But hey, at least it's kickboxing...

The Irish girl was fierce-looking. She had a face that could scare a snake. Too bad she got robbed on the decision.

not the prettiest fight, but it was interesting because the irish girl dominated the whole fight except for getting knocked down 2 or 3 times. Still, she probably should have won.
