The Amsterdam K-1 Grand Prix is set to get underway on Friday, April 24 at the Amsterdam Arena in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Here's who's been confirmed so far.
Quote:
Jerome Le Banner will challenge reigning K-1 champion Semmy Schilt in the main event. Touted as the best fighter never to win a grand prix, Le Banner has become known as a ferocious single-bout competitor, and many believe he stands a good chance of upsetting Schilt.
In other action, Poland?s Pawel Slowinski will square off with Holland?s Gokhan Sakhi, and kickboxing legend Peter Aerts will collide with Melvin Manhoef. Both matches will be contested under K-1 rules. Other confirmed participants include Buakaw Por Pramuk, Andy Souwer, Albert Kraus and Gago ?Drago? Aroetjunian.
No MMA fights have been announced yet, but rumours have surfaced regarding Pride veteran and current Strikeforce heavyweight champion Alistair Overeem?s participation.
