There was some great action in the tournament, particularly the semis and the ridiculous final round; at the very least, I recommend you go check out the "K-1 WORLD YOUTH" bout and the match between REINA and Lim Su Jeon - regardless of the decision, it was a fantastic way to start off K-1's Women's Division.

Su Hwan Lee was destroying everyone… then he got destroyed.

I don’t know which was tougher to watch: Lee getting blasted, or REINA jumping around and thinking that she’d won the decision.

Watching REINA cry after the fight was heartbreaking.

Did you see the concern on Hong Man Choi’s face? Oh wait, there was none.

Where’s the outrage about K-1 cutting away from Su Hwan Lee as he was being taken out on a stretcher??

So there was a stretcher?
Obviously you saw it. The UFC pretends like it doesn’t happen at all when somebody gets brutally KO’d. K-1 probably has a 5 page article on his health on their website we just can’t read it or identify it.
Gimme 1 round!

Only joking. But yeah you can see the stretcher for a moment when they go to a wide shot of Lim in the ring.

LOL @ saying K-1 probably has a 5 page article on it. That’s hilarious. Simply browsing the main page of the site reveals that all they have on this show are the results, not even a write-up.
A lot of the time your insistence on viewing non-UFC organizations through several layers of rose-tinted glasses is quite amusing.

Just for the record
It hasn’t been updated yet – though I’m sure K-1 won’t have anything on it. They are just as scummy as the UFC when it comes to that
Gimme 1 round!

I can read it well enough to know that the most recent update there was March 9. So unless they preemptively wrote an article about Lee’s health almost two weeks before he got KO’ed, I’d probably say such an article does not exist.
