Kin is a K-1 kickboxing  guy that has been with K-1 since their start i the early 90's.  He is a bit long in the tooth, pushing 40.  He initially seemed clueless on the ground, evidenced in his loss to akiyama..... he looks to have progressed to at least serviceable on the ground (the ishizawa fight.)  I think the key to this fight will be how Minowa approaches the fight.... he usually fights more to entertain than to win.... see his first fight with Phil Baroni, he stood and banged with Phil despite being much better on the ground...he played his opponents game in an effort to put on an entertaining match for the fans and got curb stomped by phil for his efforts.  Minowa knows better, but i see him standing and banging with Kin and most likely gettin pwned.....

hey nate.... give us an update on the $100 challenge.....hope the bankroll is growing.....
