Damn, fighting those bums for all that time then getting dominated by Geale must have boosted his confidence then crashed it, broken fighter?

[Kegsy]

Yeah i heard my man Zambo won!!!!

I never doubted it.

Maybe he should have fought a couple bums as his warmup for this fight.:yep

[p4p1]

Dawson Was Robbed Blind If You Watch The Fight You Will Score It 4 Rounds To 1 With Dawson Dominating The First 4 Rounds The Scoring Was A Joke As Were The Knockdowns Not Being Called And The Referee Letting Zambidis Take A Knee Due To A "low" Shot That The Ref Didnt See If He Had Of Been Watching He Would Of Realised That It Hit Him Just Below The Ribs

I watch alittle kickboxing but how highly is Zambidis rated?

Everytime i watch him he is winning against decent opposition.Last fight i checked out on youtube was him ko'ing Ozkan.

He is a very good and exciting fighter, however slightly one dimensional. The top guys have started to work out, that you can keep him at bay with a good front kick and tie him up in close. Still, a superb kickboxer, no doubt.

[Marcus]

Zambo is a good fighter Ozzie, he has been around for ages and has fought all over the world. He is basic in his style but he is just tough as nails.

I dont think Dawson is ever goin to be the same, once your beaten by a power punching Tasmanian, its all over :deal

[ozziebattler]

Is there p4p rankings in kickboxing??

If so where does Zambidis stand??

Also i think Dawson was shown to be the good domestic level fighter that i always thought he would only be.Geale is another level.

Im not sure if Geale will win genuine world titles but he will atleast become a serious contender.Something Dawson never was never will be.

[Marcus]

Iv never heard of a p4p ranking in muay thai.

Zambo is good but not #1 in his weight class.

Who is the big star in Muay Thai??

I only see what they show on fox.Mainly oz stuff.

[huricn]

Yeah i heard my man Zambo won!!!!

NUTHUGGER

[Marcus]

I only see what they show on fox.Mainly oz stuff.

I honestly wouldnt know mate,but i think Nathan Corbet is the best p4p mauy thai fighter in Australia.

Apart from that, i think the best fighters are 50kg - 65kg from Thailand.

I you can watch some fights from Lumpinni (spelling) stadium. Thats the best Mauy Thai you will ever see!!!

[Kegsy]

NUTHUGGER
:lol:
Zambo is the man Huricn!!!

[huricn]

:lol:
Zambo is the man Huricn!!!

dont worry mate we all are nuthuggers to our fave fighters

[Robot16]

At his weight there are alot of great fighters.
Aussie John Wayne Parr, Buakuw, Andy Souwer, Yod, etc.

Id have JWP probably at #1 p4p in Oz as there is alot more comp at his weight and he ahs been around longer, but Corbett is a machine though.

[Marcus]

I dont think you can pass Corbet, he is a two weight world champ, and also a good shootboxer.

[LeonMcS]

Is that kickboxing with guns? Wow.

[Robot16]

I dont think you can pass Corbet, he is a two weight world champ, and also a good shootboxer.

Yeah i thought he had only fought shoot box a few times, i know Parr has too.

But imo Corbett is one of Australia's best, id say #2 behind PArr.
But Corbett just destroys every opponent in front of him.
But his division is just not as stacked as Parr's but both are great at what they do.

[p4p1]

baukaw(im sure i have spelt it wrong) is the best kickboxer in the world atm did anyone see the zambidis fight he had. baukaw is a fighting machine at another level

Bloody unbelieveable.:deal

mike zambidis goes from athens winter 0degrees to 35 degrees in melbourne with 2 days to climatise ,very silly management decision. i was ringside and mike clealy won the fight.dawson was banking on the knees to win this fight,unfortunately mike rocked him on numerous occasions with crisp clean power shots to head and body,dawson could not mix it up in the boxing department. this fight was under a1 rules,hedghog the ref continued to let dawson grapple and knee strike despite the rules.dawsons knees were not realy landing clean,bar a few which did,first round was mikes or an even round at best,2nd dawson clinched it ,slightly busier,3 4 5 was crisp vintage mike.

dawson was fresher i believe ,as mike appeared to be breathing heavy early,due to getting to australia far to late,but still did enough to win the fight . dawson was one punch away from being knocked out ,but mike just didnt have the gas,dawson didnt want to go there and mix it up with mike punch for punch,content on grapple and knee,need to do more than that to beat mike.:happy

dawson was never going down he controlled the fight mark de mori has hit dawson with everything and not put dawson down zambidis was dropped 3 times which were not counted he was never hit in the nuts explain when you bend someone over how u can knee them in the nuts why was the knockdown at the end of the 3rd not counted? zambidis is one of my faveroute fighters i beleive he lost. the only reason dawson was able to grapple even if the rules did not allow it they were not inforced the ref's fault not his. why did zambidis think he had lost he was about to tell solak he thought he lost before solak told him to stop talking

1.mike was on the front foot most of the fight ,dawson backpedling scared to mix it up with hands,then jump foward on occasion trying to grapple and knee.mike controled this fight ,not dawson.
2.slips are not knockdowns,either are pushes ,thats why dave hedgcock repeatedly telling dawson to stop pushing.all the previous undercard fighters were going down all the time from slips,slippery surface.mike was clearly hit in the nuts ,and went down twice from it,as you do.end of the 3rd dawson tried to knee,dawson pulled mike forward ,looked like mike fell from being off balance and not from the knee attempt.i asked mike after the fight bout the nut shots he said he didnt know wheather it was kick or knee,he said he wants to see the tape,but they hurt him alot.

3.no way in hell did zambo think he lost ,he was about to say fuck knows what to solak ,u a mind reader? zambo had his hand up waiting for his victory to be announced unlike mundine solimon 1 when u know u lost and hands are bye ur sides.i asked mike how u think u went ,his response i quote,i hit him with some good shots,he didnt hurt me apart from nut shots,i think i did enough to win ,i was tired from jet lag,i want to see the tape.

4.i asked chris johnson sniper who he thought won, i quote ,i think mike landed the cleaner ,harder shots,close fight but i think mike did enough to win ,but what would sniper know.any clinch and knee situation daniel had mike in was worth one point even if more than one knee was landed due to the a1 rules ,which means one point max ,which most viewers wouldnt know.

conclusion; great fight ,love to see a rematch,cant wait to see the tape,mike won the fight .if u go to kick boxing .com u can see photos which realy sums up mikes great defence and clean shots to dawsons head,sweat flying everywhere, pictures do tell a thousand words.:yep
