They talked about it for a long time and almost everybody forgot about the deal but Lex Veldhuis(RaSZi) and Betrand Grospellier(Elky) will battle eachother in a Kick Boxing match. The Match will take place in Marbella Spain on the 22th of November 2011. The will fight each other K1 style for 5 rounds with each round taking 3 minutes.
The first appointment was set in 2009 but the injury prone Lex Veldhuis had to cancel the fight a few times. Then the WSOP of 2011 whould give them a stage but Black Friday cut deep in the Poker world and they decided to postpone there challenge. Now after 2 years the match will finally come to life in Marbella. These are the rules set up for the match. They are from RaZSi blog:
- 5 rounds of 3 minutes. We realize this is ridiculously long for beginners, but we had a reason for it.
- You only win the fight if you get KO'd or TKO'd, or if someone gives up. When we both stand at the end of 5 rounds the bet is wash. We chose to do it this way because if you work with scoring points, one of us might feel a bit unhappy with the ruling. This way you circumvent this.
- Kicks are allowed to every part of the body except the groin.
- No elbows
- Knees to the face and the rest of the body (except the groin) are allowed. Clinch knees (holding someone's head and repeatedly kneeing it) are not allowed.
- If you get counted down 3 times in 1 round you lose.
- If you get counted down for the 4th time in the match you lose.
- No headbutts, punched to the back of the head.
- Spinnings kicks/punches as well as sweeps are allowed.
We fight with 10oz gloves like K1 without helmets and shinpads.
