Who has the best hands at 154 in K-1?

For me, it's Zambidis. He may not be as technical as some of the dutch guys, but I think his power and counters make him the guy with the most dangerous hands in MAX. Others?

kalakoda, the reason i didnt say andy was because he low kick alot now and tend to focus on that plenty. But sheer fists wise, kalakoda is awesome.

Zambidis? i can't say he has close to the best hands since he couldn't even hit Masato at all in their 2nd fight with Masato putting a clinic on him even with a broken ankle.

best hands would have to be Masato or Andy.

Masato no doubt, Souwer was winning with kicks but not with punches.

I always thought Masato had the best hands good power, combinations and hand speed.

i think zambidis has the best technique and speed
problem is his lack of reach, even worse is his boxing style (hooks) does not translate so well with guys with reach or good kickers like buakaw, masato... or the young russian fighter he lost to

so the best hands (most effective) at 154 would be masato
anyone who can beat buakaw 's kicks with his boxing deserves serious repect
i have rarely seen this happen vs superior kickers
kalakoda is up there as well...
as is souwer, strong punches, good counters, combinations
but he does get hit a lot, even knocked down by andy ologun. i don't think his evasion technique or footwork is as good as masato
