Kickboxing has always been known for its tight rhythm and intense process, and its excellent ornamental characteristics have won the attention of a large number of fans. With the vigorous development of one championships in standing fighting in recent years, a large number of world top players have also been signed, and with its luxurious lineup, it can also be called the world's first event brand in the field of kickboxing. And such a high honor is naturally indispensable to the contribution of some meritorious kickboxing veterans.
TOP 5: Lerdsila
Nicknamed "Lightning", Ledesra is in the same line as Saenchai, the most legendary Muay Thai king of our time. Boxers who know Ledesla will also be able to see that his style is very similar to that of Good Guess, and his eclectic playing style and super fast reaction speed make all opponents feel powerless from the bottom of their hearts. It is also they who let boxing fans know that Muay Thai, which was originally known for its toughness, can still play like this.
As early as 2000, Ledesra won three levels of canaan long boxing championships and has become the top level boxer of Muay Thai. He then moved to the international arena and won the world championship titles of WKN, WPMF, WMC, WCK, WLF and Lion Fight, and also contributed greatly to the spread of Muay Thai in various countries in the world.
In 2018, Ledesra entered the ONE Championship with his legendary past and unbeaten record for three consecutive years, and continued his legendary career in Beijing, Jakarta, Manila, Bangkok and other places, and soon played a four-game winning streak. Unfortunately, in the 2019 "ONE Championship: Warrior Branding" competition, the nearly 40-year-old Ledesla was defeated by French Muay Thai star Elias Mahmoudi, which became the last game of his current career.
TOP 4: Nieky Holzken
Perhaps many Chinese boxing fans have only heard of Nikki Hozken, but they don't know how strong he really is. In fact, Nikki is a "heavenly king" in the European and American kickboxing circles.
Originally from the fighting kingdom of the Netherlands, Nicky has competed in K-1, Glory, It's Showtime and other top international kickboxing events of different eras, and won the K-1 Nordic Championship and glory three -77KG world championships, is the most powerful king of the era of the middleweight, and was also voted kickboxing player of the year by Kickboxing Planet.
In 2018, Nikki Hozken competed in the ONE Championship with a high voice and defeated world stars such as Cosmo Alexandre and Mustapha Haida. As recently as April of this year, he beat Australian Muay Thai legend John Wayne Parr with TKO.
The current 38-year-old Nicky has played 6-4-2 in the ONE Championship and continues to pound upwards.
TOP 3: Yodsanklai
In contemporary times, there is only one 70KG Muay Thai king who can be on par with Buakaw, and that is Yasan Clay. Yasan Clay is also known as the "first man of traditional Muay Thai" because he is not only able to dominate the arena under the rules of kickboxing like Bo qiu, but also exists under the rules of pure Muay Thai and even the traditional tangled Muay Thai rules.
During his career, Jason Clay has won two classes of The Lumpini Boxing Championship, two levels of WPMF World Champion, WMC World Champion, THAI FIGHT World Champion and Lion Fight World Champion. It has maintained a record of 7 years of total wins and 32 consecutive wins. Because of its dazzling record, even many people think that the broadcast of the strongest era cannot defeat Yasan Clay at its peak.
In 2018, Jasan Clay competed in the ONE Championship. In the round cage, Yasan Clay's powerful attack ability once again shined, and soon won 3 consecutive ko games, explaining to the world's boxing fans what is the "avenue to jane" attack method. But the good times did not last long, and after defeating another legend, Andy Souwer, Yassank gradually went down in form, officially announcing his retirement with three consecutive defeats and ending his career.
TOP 2: Andy Souwer
Once K-1 was the world's top fighting event, the K-1 champion is undoubtedly the most watched fighting star. Andy Suva is the two-time K-1 MAX champion and one of the most powerful legendary kings of that "god-fighting" era.
Andy Suva, also from the fighting kingdom of Holland, is the one who brought the classic X-attack in kickboxing to the K-1 MAX arena, and it was his presence that brought the entire K-1 MAX world to new heights. There are countless kings who have lost to Andy Suva's fists and legs: Bog, Masato, Albert Kraus... These legendary names are still deafening even today.
But at the end of his career, Andy Suva failed to continue his glorious record, and Andy Suva, who played for the first time in the ONE Championship in 2018, suffered a defeat. He was then struck by Yasan Clay TKO at the ONE Championship Tokyo, losing two consecutive games. In 2020, 38-year-old Andy Suva did not return to the ring after defeating China's zhang Chunyu.
TOP 1: Giorgio Petrosyan
If Andy Suva is the old king of the K-1 era, Giorgio Petosio is the last emperor of the K-1. Previously, in the fiercely competitive K-1 arena, no champion had ever been able to have the same strong dominance as George. No matter what kind of opponent he faces, George can use his incomparably precise and rigorous technique to break it down and destroy it. He also won the K-1 MAX World Championship for two consecutive years.
After the fall of the old K-1, George moved to Europe and the United States and won the GLORY World Championship. But just as he was in the middle of the day, he encountered Andy Ristie, who was as bright as a meteor but short-lived. George suffered his first defeat in 6 years and was the only time in his career that he was KO. After the war, he did not play for two years, and after his return, it was a bloody storm.
Also in 2018, George competed in the ONE Championship and has now played an unbeaten record of 7 wins, 6 wins and 1 resultless, and won the World 8-a-side Championship. Currently, George is also on his way to the throne of the ONE Championship World Champion. If George can take this precious gold belt, then he will become a real "kickboxing grand slam" player, a legend within a legend.
Entering the fiercely competitive ONE Championship Arena, some legendary players are not safe, and some continue to make history. But in any case, they are once a being with a supreme aura, and they can continue to fight in the world's top arenas. And falling on the road of the charge is the best destination for the fighters.
