Acoustic

Technique is completely different however. Have you ever tried to mount any kind of offense with boxing or kickboxing gloves on in the clinch besides grabbing the head in a MT clinch?

Nothing?

The majority of clinchwork in kickboxing is more MT based. You don't see someone throwing double underhooks a lot and if they do it's usually to stall and they are separated shortly after. I would like to see KT based off only Boxing and MT primaries. Opinions?

Ray Thoen was caught by local reporters this morning after recent news of the signing of a fight with Zizzo. Reporter: Thoen, how do you feel about this fight? Thoen : Zizzo called me out and did a lot of talking. Now that he just lost and knows he has to face me again , he's silent. Come on Zizzo, climb out of your hole and tell the world how scared you are of getting knocked out again ! Reporter: quite the bold statement, you see the fight ending in knockout for you? Thoen: of course I do, Zizzo can't land on me. His stand up is elementary. I'm coming into this fight in fantastic shape. He'll be retiring after this one. Reporter: good to hear you're in high spirits, appreciate the time Ray.

You should, I prefer weight classes but still cool. I'm a big fan of KT in the game, still kinda young

NY is a fairly popular area, why not go balls to the wall with a structured org? That'd give a KT org in Asia (dynasty), Europe (effa), and now NA.

Ray Thoen called in to a local Kickboxing radio show today and wanted to share some things: Interviewer: Thoen, it's great to hear from you...but it's very unexpected. You seemed to be very quiet yesterday. What's the deal? Thoen: I was feeling pretty tired yesterday, and down from the fight of course. My apologies I guess. Interviewer: Well, what'd ya call in for today? Thoen: I wanted to to let all the EFFA Heavyweights know that I am still gonna run through em. Bailey was a fluke, everyone knows it. You put anybody in front of me, and I guarantee you they won't leave the ring without the referee having to help them get up. Give me someone next week, tomorrow, or even today and I'll win. I am the greatest to grace the kickboxing world, and won't be stopped any time soon. Interviewer: We appreciate the time thoen, and the speech. Hope to hear from you again soon.

Interviewers caught up with Ray Thoen after his disappointing EFFA debut: Reporter: Thoen, how are you feeling after your first career loss? Thoen: Obviously not good. Reporter: What do you think contributed to the loss? Thoen: I underestimated Bailey. I overtrained trying to get better for my next opponents, not worrying about him. Reporter: Whats next? Thoen: Obviously its up to EFFA as to what they offer me, but Zizzo has a had a couple of words to say about me. He would be fine, or even a Bailey rematch would be nice. I know I can take him. He's a chump. I respect Zizzo. He fought in Dynasty's SHW division with me, we took on giants. Bailey hasn't done anything. Reporter: So, Bailey rematch or Zizzo is next? Thoen: Like I said, it's up to EFFA. Whatever I get, I want it to be quick.

I have really good kicks as well, wonderful I believe. Maybe against smaller guys that are quicker I should be more aggressive?

http://mmatycoon.com/fightcommentary.php?FTID=547735 Thorns my guy. Beat plenty of better fighters then this guy. Has exceptional SD, wonderful speed, and gets caught with a head kick 5 sec into the fight?

Sounds good, got me a catch wrestler waiting to tear up the tourney...

Thanks, much obliged. Will do Company went under, and dont worry about it man. Thanks tho.

Need to launder around 15 k.

That's getting rather specific in terms of fighting. Currently we have: KT (Standup) (soon to be) Grappling (Ground) MMA (Both) If we get boxing, then I'm sure someone would rally for free style wrestling ect.

Seriously, no other HW's are interested? Even Holmgang ones? How can you be scared of a tourney in your own organization?

Isaak Checknov will join the HW tourney. http://www.mmatycoon.com/fighterprofilemanager.php?FID=195254

Well, most of my fighters dropped out (lost VIP) but it was making profit when it peaked.

Was the proud owner of this company but sadly my VIP ran out recently and I can't afford to redo it. I'd appreciate it if someone bought and kept it going, it's a solid gym. Thanks. http://www.mmatycoon.com/gympublic.php?gmid=2643

What'd ya need done?

No one?

Fairly new manager (around 8 months) and just started my own gym in Helsinki. Kinda ran into some financial issues, and just wondering if anyone would be interested in having some work (legal ) done in exchange for 10$ worth of VIP. Post here or PM me and we can work something out. I am pretty handy in Graphics work so that would be the best way to go about it.

If you set it all the way to counter strike it will never counter grapple, which meens it will never choose between counter clinch or counter takedown.

Counter strike vs counter grapple decides what u do when you counter a move. If you strike, it bases it off what you have your striking set to (punch/kick/high/low, ect) When you grapple, you move on to the next slider choice: Takedown or clinch. Determines whether or not you clinch or takedown if you are grappling.

What exactly was the bug?

Typically a higher experienced fighter has higher hype/popularity and that is how you would benefit from facing them. If not, then there really isn't a point in facing them (just like in real life when Shogun turned down Glover).
