K-1 2011 *Updates*
Posted: Fri Apr 15, 2011 2:00 pm
The new system of K-1 press conference will take place at the end of golden week (golden week is May 3rd to 5th) in Shinjuku. Around June 25th they will hold a Japan Tournament in Tokyo. It won’t be a 70kg tournament since Krush are holding their 70kg tournament around that time.
The K-1 event around June 25th will be a MAX event but as reported earlier it will not be a 70kg tournament (most likely a minus 63 Japan Tournament).
There will be World Tournaments for both the 63kg and 70kg weight classes this year. It will be a first for minus 63.
After the June event they are planning to hold events in Europe and China.
TV status for K-1 is not yet fixed. Tanikawa said that he wants to go for it after the new system of K-1 is set. Holding an event is more important right now. He’ll hold one regardless if they have a TV deal or not.
