Don`t see why Danny would get encouraged by that
Don`t see the ref letting Danny hold Matt by the neck whilst wrestling on the floor

Williams may be talking of a K1 kickboxing fight where Skelton was KO'd by a kick to the head.

that fight was against Tom Erickson a 300lb wrestler under MMA rules
Had it been K1 rules poor Tom would have probably been knocked out, just as Shannon Briggs did to him.
This isnt the le Banner fight where Skelton was stopped

Aint no shame in getting stopped by le banner, the guy is an animal.

no shame at all Skelton joins the likes of
Peter Aerts
Ernesto Hoost
Mark Hunt in being stopped by Jerome... those guys have 8 Grand prix final wins between them but it didnt stop them getting KO'd

Did you see the fight were le banner gets head butted intentionally and ends up with a rahman like golf ball on his forehead. I honestly think he pulled back on some of his strikes against the guy to give him a bit of extra punishment.
Cant remember the other guys name off hand think he could have been french also and it was a bit of a grudge match.

Cyril Abidi is the other guy
and there is a lot of bad blood
Abidi tried to have a pop at him a few years after a fight, had to get seperated

Abidi is a funny one... he has a bit of a Bruno syndrome.... he gets caught with a good dig and kind of freezes and stays upright taking a beating....
dont bow down to my knowledge... plenty of much more impressive guys around!!! but thanks anyway!!!!

So, I don't really watch much K1. Who is the best around at the moment, and who are the best fighters of all time?

lol that was lovely. Skelton given a good beatdown there. lol.
in fairness to Skelton, Audley/Williams and co are complete crap so he could beat them like he beat McDermott (angry that I never actually saw this fight!). And he might be able to maul his way past byrn/ruiz/wladi/valuev
he has a chance, but he really is deplorable to watch.
However, I hope he mauls williams.

to be honest knockout might have a better idea but imo of all the mma heavies Fedor Emelianenko has to be right up there he is awesome.
Heres a little vid of him to check out.

Best K1 at the moment..hmm there are a few Semi Schilt, Le Banner, Ignashov...
Best of all time Ernesto Hoost, Peter Aerts, Ray Sefo, Andy Hug.
MMA, Fedor is head and shoulders above any other big guy.
little guy, Gomi is probably the top dog.

He's a monster, he was dropped on his head and still wasn't KO'd.

Remi Bonjaski[spl] has to be up there with the best hasn't he? Last time I watched one he cleaned out Vernon White with a quality fly kick!

i dont like to say this about any fighter who gets in the ring but Remy hasnt got the biggest heart out there in my opinion.... twice i have seen him quit now, once against Sapp and once againt Schillt when it looked like he could have carried on...
Obviously he is a brave man just getting in the ring against those guys.. but to be a legend i think you have to show a little more...

I like Bonjasky, technically he's the best in the world. Not a killer in the ring though, I agree.
Best at the minute for me is Schilt, as the reigning World GP champ.
Regarding greatest fighters, the general concensus is Hoost, although he's tarnished his legacy a bit for me with carrying on a bit too long and losing quite a few in recent years.
Knockout, you mentioned Ray Sefo, but he hasn't won much though, has he? He kinda reminds me of a K1 Ray Mercer.

True Sefo hasnt won a lot, but he has consistently been up there with the best and beating the best for 10 years, thats why i put him up there with the best.... hard to put your finger on a boxing equivalent...
Have you seen Sefo's KO of LeBanner from back in the day??? its a beauty... gets dropped himself then gets up and takes Jerome out with one shot...

by the way, was it you who said they had Lebanner V Skelton??

One Bonjasky fight that's fun to watch is against Frans Botha. He literally didn't throw a punch, just peppered him with kicks. Awesome.
By the way, the 'throttle-choke' or whatever you call it... grabbing them by the throat with your hand, is now against the rules as a result of the Skelton / Erikson fight.
