Re-match between Sanny Dahlbeck and Jordan Watson set for Yokkao 18

Yokkao is set to return to Macron Stadium in Bolton, England. Yokkao 17 and Yokkao 18 will follow their recent trend of two shows in one night. The events are set for March 19, 2016 and they have announced the main event for Yokkao 18 to be a re-match between current Yokkao 70kg Champion Sanny Dahlbeck and Jordan Watson.

The pair previously fought at Yokkao 12. Watson was the newly crowned Yokkao 70kg champion at the time and was looking to make his first title defense. The fight was nothing but excitement as neither fighter wanted to give up any ground. Going into the fourth round it was a close fight and then Dahlbeck scored a huge knockdown with a barrage of punches, knees, and elbows. Watson recovered, but was again sent down to the canvas. Watson once again beat the referee's count, but Dahlbeck hell bent on ending this fight. He began to unleash a fury of strikes that had Watson hurt and the referee stepped in and stopped the bout.

If the re-match is anything like the first fight between these two then fans are in for a treat.

Results and Recap: Glory 3

Glory 3 took place in Italy this yesterday and the 154lb tournament did not disappoint. In the quarterfinals of the tournament Giorgio Petrosyan defeated Ky Hollenebck, Sanny Dahlbeck defeated Yoshihiro Sato, and Robin van Roosmalen defeated Tim Thomas by (T)KO to advance to the semi-finals, while Davit Kiria defeated Shemsi Beqiri by decision to punch his ticket to the semi-finals.

In the tournament semi-finals Giorgio Petrosyan out pointed Davit Kiria en route to a decision victory. Despite Kiria’s aggression, Petrosyan was too slick and used a slick counter attack to continuously score. In the other semi-final bout it seemed Sanny Dahlbeck had the antidote for Robin van Roosmalen’s relentless attack and through most of the first round Dhalbeck was able to keep van Roosmalen at bay. With a few second left at the end of the first van Roosmalen was able to get inside and knock Dahlbeck down. The second round played much like the first as van Roosmalen was having trouble getting inside on Dahlbeck, but once again as the round was coming to an end he was able to get inside and unleash a flurry of punches and knock Dahlbeck down again. The bout finally ended in the third round when van Roosmalen knocked Dahlbeck down with body shot and he was unable to continue. 

In the tournament finals Giorgio Petrosyan out pointed van Roosmalen en route to a decision victory to take home the tournament crown and the $300,000 prize. Despite his efforts van Roosmalen was unable to get inside on Petrosyan and land his powerful strikes. Petrosyan proved once again why he is considered the best Kickboxer in the world.

Results and Recap: Rumble of the Kings 2011

Rumble of the Kings 2011 took place in Stockholm, Sweden on November 26th. The main event of the evening was the much anticipated bout between Artur Kyshenko and Yodsanklai Fairtex. Kyshenko was the larger fighter of the two, but as always Yodsanklai was game. Kyshenko used his boxing in the opening round to keep Yodsanklai at bay. Kyshenko later connected with some solid left hooks that clearly hurt the Yodsanklai, however, despite being on wobbly legs he was able to not only stay on his feet from the punches, but survive the barrage that followed by Kyshenko.

The second round saw Yodsanklai come back strong as he and Kyshenko exchanged kicks and punches in a back and forth fight. In the third and final round it was clear Yodsanklai was fatigued, Kyshenko started to pull away as the round wore on. Eventually Yodsanklai let his hands down and was simply looking to land a one shot KO that never came. Kyshenko continued to work through the round and in the end took home a unanimous decision victory.
