That is definitely awesome considering all the talk of K-1 going bankrupt which caused a big question mark for the future of kickboxing...I may just have to see if one of my friends is down to go on a little trip when December rolls around...I wonder how expensive tickets will be, but chances are since its a world wide tournament and its in New York...probably pretty expensive.
