>>6341943IIRC K1 instituted a 3 kick a round rule to force guys to kick because punching was more effective. To say boxing sucks is throwing the baby out with the bath water. There was a guy that trained at the same gym as me who was a collegiate wrestler out of Oklahoma and he made it to the UFC, he had insane grappling and almost never used it offensively, his boxing made him the welterweight champ at one point. You might have heard of him.
