    In its heyday K-1 was an entertaining spectacle oftentimes combining pro kickboxing with mixed martial arts. Unfortunately it seems some of the best strikers in combat sports will be without a big stage if K-1 does shutter its doors. There is still a forum for pro kickboxing in the Netherlands but nothing matches the grand scale of the K-1 events.
