Yoshiki Takei

He was a K-1 kickboxing champ and just beat Moloney in his 8th boxing match. What do you think of him and who does he fight next??

As a kickboxing fan i was happy for him but also very surprised. Moloney did next to nothing until it was basically too late, and even then he almost put Takei in a bad place. Takei's main weaknesses are his lack of conditioning and his overreliance on throwing haymakers. If he catches someone he could put them out, but if he fights someone who pushes the pace he's gonna have a short title reign, it's that simple.

Don't even get me started on what Nakatani would do to him.

i think takei was impressive considering he has no amateur boxing exp. moloney couldnt do anything for 11 rounds. since he knows what a 12 rounder is like now, i’m curious to see how he does on his title defense. then we can determine how good he really is.
