hi niceguy, nobody is organising a meet as far as i know but i have arranged to meet tmd[all things being equal] and it goes without saying that it would be great to meet the rest of the k4l guys/girls and cheer on any of us that are fighting!

i will be wearing either a oyama picture black t shirt, or a black kyokushin t shirt...jeans ........big and fat!! mrs hasbeen is oriental and petite.....no chance of missing us two!!!.....can anybody think of how we can all say hello?

if not please come and say hello to us and perhaps we can get a few photos?

Osu!

Anyone have an artist handy? A K4L sign might be a good beacon.

How about one of our members making a request to use the microphone? Maybe during an interlude?

Osu!

that is a very good idea dent....your reputation stays intact!

i`ve always found the bkk do`s to be a bit formal what we could do with is a defending champion, somebody who gets on with s.a and a k4l member!!

lucy come on down!!

if a stranger "approached the bench" [ i doubt if hanshi would remember me]
i`ve got the reply in my minds eye,"vort iss kay far ell, wah ah my karatikka members?"......with opologies to the great man!

That was actually pretty good. Maybe you could offer an entertainment-for-mike-time exchange?

Yes, methinks Lucy is the person to call on for the task at hand. Good choice there, H!

Osu!

Hello gang!

What are you roping me in for exactly??

Middleweight mens is going to be a cracker! Darren Stringer IS in the middleweight! As is Wai Cheung, Darren Chan AND Mr Jarvis if my sources tell me correct (they are good sources )

See you all there!

Osu!

H and I thought a K4L meet at the comp might be a good warm up for the upcoming British, and were trying to think of a way to get everyone together for a meet and greet. I suggested asking to use the mike, and H suggested your kind self as the voice for the announcement. (And the tricky bit where you ask to use it. )

What do you say, Champ?

Osu!

I'll be in my K4L shirt so I should be fairly easy to spot!

Kenny's mostly always fought at MW hasn't he? only know of a couple of comps he slipped over into heavy, man oh man what a MW category - really really not gutted I couldn't complete this year with that line up, I'd be destroyed, and all the more reason to get back down to LW for next year.

Ha ha good point tmd! I wouldnt wish competing with that line up on anyone! Think MW may well be the highlight of the tournament! The venue is not very big so we'll be able to spot each other pretty easily. Note to all others attending: If you see a crowd of K4L shirts gathering make yourself know!

Also heard that Darren Stringer will be entered at 70.1 Kilos even though he will be about 65. Is there no rule about fighting in a higher weight cat or is it up to the fighter?

As far as I know in all Kyokushin Knockdown tournaments you can fight at any weight above your weight so if he wanted to he could fight in the heavyweight category , as could Kenny and the rest and give us mere mortal MW's a chance

No there is no rule if you want to fight in the heavier categories. Actually the reason for this is that there are not enough lightweights in the mens this year so he can't fight himself

Osu!

Not to stray too far off topic, but it's funny to me how some weight groups are always better represented than others.

What isn't so funny is that there always seem to be more in my division, no matter whether I weigh 65 or 105. That I have yet to explain.

Osu!
