K-1 MAX A GREAT SHOW... Buakaw`s KO Loss!

K-1 MAX FINAL 8 last night at the Budokan in Tokyo was a phenomenal show! Thank you to all who tuned in for the live PPV.

A lot of people are emailing me about Buakaw`s KO loss asking what the hell happened?

The way I see it, if you watch the fight, watch the KO round, with 1 minute and 23 seconds remaining in the round Yoshihiro Sato lands a FLUSH KNEE to the liver of Buakaw. A liver shot is devastating, the impact usually has a delayed reaction but it causes your whole body to go into shock and close down.

I believe this is what happened to Buakaw.

The knee to his liver lands perfectly and after this Buakaw seems to go into slow motion as his body just closes down. Thus he drops his hands and leaves his jaw totally exposed for Sato to KO him.

Have a look at it, see the knee I am talking about and watch how it effectively ends Buakaw before the right hand finishes him off.

Proof in point as to the devastation of a perfect liver shot.
