It was a fair loss if you look it was a missed punch these things happen im sure fedor has gotten over it and im sure you can too it was rulled ok because it was a missed punch and not a illegal elbow like most fuckwits are refering to it as.


...holds win over Fedor E.

Its kind of a dubious win http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGJu_v3G93g&feature=related 75.63.7.2 (talk) 03:20, 24 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

The doctor called the fight, it was awarded to TK by TKO, his hand was raised, and the result has never been overturned. That's a win. Period. Gromlakh (talk) 03:34, 24 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
Please watch the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGJu_v3G93g&feature=related and reconsider. In the strictest technical terms it was a win (as Fedor probably could not have continued as a winner with such a large cut in the contest). However, it is not a "win. Period." It is controversial, the move was illegal, it looked very accidental however, and this fight should really have been ruled a No Contest. Best, 209.10.89.3 (talk) 14:01, 10 July 2008 (UTC)Reply
It should have been overturned, that should have been a disqualification loss for Kohsaka. That was the worst "win" in the history of mixed martial arts. I saw the video, the guy just punched, missed and switched to an elbow which no one would expect considering it was illegal under the rules of RINGS 99.237.188.60 (talk) 04:40, 18 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

Kohsaka won. Fedor lost. Fedor has moved on with his life. Others should consider following his example. MisterJayEm (talk) 18:57, 24 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

Koshaka won? LOL! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.168.192.220 (talk) 09:25, 15 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

TK Guard

edit

I removed some incorrect material on the page regarding "debate" about the nature of the TK guard; "TK guard" is a precursor of modern butterfly guard, and the articles quoted are flatly incorrect and/or have been misunderstood by the person who linked them.

What the TK guard is (and is not) may have been more clear at the time and so some people likely don't remember, but you can still hear it described by commentators during most of the fights that TK, Mo and Frank had at the time.HistoryFightFan (talk) 02:15, 24 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
