12/8 K-1 GP Finals

December 8 will be be K-1 GP finals. This is one of my highlights every year as long as I`ve been in Japan, however this year is a bit different. Due to all the rumors the last couple of days, a lot of people will be keeping a very close eye on Hong Choi Man. If he gets KO`ed, he will not fight NYE that much is clear.

Anyway, who would be the favorites for this tournament? As always it`s a very close field. It is hard to look past Badr Hari, not my favorite as far as character goes, but an awesome fighter. Also Semmy Schilt would be one of my favorites.
