>It'll take time to grow
Pure idealism. The ratings are falling year by year and they have practically no good fighters or big matches.

ratings have been going up year by year you melt thats why Fuji keeps re-newing their deal

>filler yokohama show doesnt do peak K-1 ratings
its a disaster!!!!!

No one hyped the Yokohama show here and the Puro Twitter adjacent RIZIN fans that I follow weren't even tweeting about it.
They are no more than casuals who probably only watch the NYE show.

It is. Mayweather killing that twink killed this shit company.

Mayweather helped set a ratings peak of over 12%

Buried their biggest name and then fucked off. Anybody who watched this match for Mayweather will never take Tenshin seriously.

No, YOU won't take him seriously. That doesn't mean the rest of the public won't. Losses aren't as damaging there as they are in America. Look at Masato (I know you don't know who he is).

Already ordered it

Another no-name jap that never made to the big leagues? The "public" saw him getting hammered and crying for his mommy. Tenshin's fucking done.

Masato was a rockstar and one of the most famous people in Japan. He was the big leagues. The anticipation for a Tenshin-Takeru superfight is as high as ever, and Tenshin is more famous than ever. You could not be more clueless.

Superstardom in Japan doesn't mean shit and you know it. Nobody cares about Tenshin-Takeru except teenage girls who are still wet for them. Even fucking Sherdog doen't talk about it.

Ive been trying to find Rizins old shows and watch from the beginning for a while now with no luck. Anyone know where I can find em?

A lot of RIZIN fights are on this account.
There are torrent sites that have them but they are invite only.

The rizin PR guy said there will be a way to watch all old events online soon

It didn’t even count as a loss because it wasn’t on record, if it was a work or a shoot fight they still ruined their top star, fucking retards lmao

Sherdog is a dead boomer forum what is wrong with you lmao

Masato doesn't have many losses... he was also a K-1 champion and beat guys like Buakaw and Souwer. how is that comparable at all?

Masato lost like 4 MAX grand prix's in a row. His entire appeal was seeing if he could overcome the odds and break his losing streak.

he was a 2 time k-1 champ with wins over some really legit names. to compare him to a no-name 18 y. o. kid who has never won any sort of prestigious title in any combat sport in his life and who cried after getting thrashed in a single round by an ancient mayweather jr. is laughable. he's not masato and he never will be and not just because he embarrassed himself in front of the world but because japs don't really give a shit about combat sports anymore

Tenshin has already beat three Thai stadium champions as a teenager, his pedigree is unquestionable. He won't ever be as famous as Masato, no fighter will be, Japan's culture isn't as fixated on kakutogi as it was in the late 90's boom, but the notion that the loss, or any loss, would kill his market value for good is entirely unfounded. Only people who say that are people who aren't paying attention to the scene.

did he win a stadium championship? no? then fuck off. he hasn't won shit and hasn't accomplished shit and I'm going to hazard a guess and say the "champions" he beat were probably more out of prime and rundown than floyd is now (who tbf is still in excellent shape) am I warm here?

He didn't win a stadium championship because he doesn't fight in Thailand. Why would you ask that when it's not relevant and not his ruleset? They are huge scalps and far more experienced than him and he's beat three of them already. He will beat two more before the end of the year. He's a much better fighter than Masato ever was, even if he won't be the same kind of superstar. Although a Takeru superfight would boost his star. You don't follow kickboxing.

>Why would you ask that when it's not relevant and not his ruleset?
LOL it's even worse than I imagined. So let me get this straight. the guy's claim to fame is beating 3 past their prime MT fighters under kickboxing rules? those are his major accomplishments? I was gicing him the benefit of the doubt. thought he at least had the balls to fight full MT rules in Thailand...jesus.

yeah you're right btw I don't follow kickboxing anymore and thanks for reminding me why. it's a joke sport.

If they were past their primes they wouldn't be holding major stadium titles when Tenshin beat them. The Thai scene is brutal and rigorous and weeds out old competitors very quickly. I shouldn't need to explain that to you but since you don't follow kickboxing, I guess I might as well.

No one fights full Thai rules in Thailand except Thais and a few insane Brits. You don't follow kickboxing and you don't know what you're talking about. At least you can admit that.

lolol oh I see current champs... meaning the guys were under a ruleset they not only don't normally fight under but had not even trained for. I mean did they even train for this particular fight or did they just ship them over directly from bangkok the night before? you realize that you are just making him look worse with each post right? sorry but kickboxing is a joke sport with no talent pool and this kid will never be famous for anything but crying after getting steamrolled by floyd

Thai stadium champions have excellent records overseas. You don't know what you're talking about.

they have excellent records when given proper time to train and transition into a new combat sport. hence why there are is along history of many thai champs in western boxing. hence why buakaw was a solid win for masato. but if you're telling me this jabroni fought CURRENT active champs then you're telling me there was no transitional period. it's not an impressive feat. would you be impressed if he beat floyd under kickboxing rules? how about while he was still an active wbc champ? I mean you probably would cos you are clearly dumb but the rest of the world wouldn't

No, they have excellent records overall. That's why they're revered as big scalps whenever they're felled. Tenshin knocking out Wanchalong with a spinning hook kick is the first time a reigning Thai champion has ever been knocked out under full Thai rules while fighting overseas. Ever. Never happened before, he did it when he was 16 years old. Did you know that?

>but if you're telling me this jabroni fought CURRENT active champs then you're telling me there was no transitional period

No I'm not, this is your defective brain playing tricks on you. Thai fighters have been competing in Muay Thai and kickboxing simultaneously for years, Buakaw is the only one you know because you're a casual, but he's a special case, who totally gave up Thai fighting. The vast majority that cross over do both and do absolutely fine when they aren't facing mercurial talents like Tenshin.

>under full Thai rules
the fuck are you on about... you literally made it a point to say all of those fights were NOT under full MT rules.

I lied. You were misled. He slept him in the first round under full Thai rules because he's that kind of monster.

>I lied
because you don't know what you are talking about and are doing wiki research as we speak. the only legitimate MT championships that mean anything are the stadiums championships in Thailand. So back to the original question, why isn't he fighting there if his MT is so great?

is my girl Rena fighting ??

No, I know about it all and you don't even know any Thais aside from Buakaw. You don't know about current Thai champions doing both kickboxing and Muay Thai full time and excelling, like Seksan, Rodtang, Rungkit, Suakim, and a whole host of others. I don't know why you're so invested in a conversation about a subject you aren't up to date on and have said you don't care about. Nothing else to do tonight but get shat on over the internet?

she's fighting in MSG next

oh shit! BASED

no, you clearly don't because you keep avoiding the question. where is his lumpinee/rajadamnern championship belt user?

Where is Buakaw's?

traded it in for a k-1 belt. does tenshin have one?

How many K-1 belts did Buakaw have at 20?

>You don't know about current Thai champions doing both kickboxing and Muay Thai full time and excelling, like Seksan, Rodtang, Rungkit, Suakim, and a whole host of others.
right so excelling = losing shitty decisions to jap cans?

same number as tenshin

I don't know what you think you're referring to - but Seksan is unbeaten under unified kickboxing rules, as are Rodtang, Suakim and Rungkit, aside from the former two's fights with Tenshin.

how many fights. how championships. nobody seriously competes in two different combat sports dude

Uh, yes they do. Seksan is in the semi finals of the RISE Kickboxing grand prix, as is Rungkit. Both are current major stadium champions in Thailand.

>RISE Kickboxing grand prix
so literally no championships won but they are close to winning in a second rate org... cool thanks for proving my point?

UFC

>K-1 boomer shilling his dying org
Takeru got fed a pure clincher from a lower weight division to get a Thai on his record. Fucking shambles of a promotion. Tenshin is fighting 130lb monsters with actual ranged toolsets. You are a casual if you don't see that RISE's tournaments are the best in kickboxing this year.

And Seksan won a Kunlun tournament you faggot know-nothing no-life boomer

Joke promition for a joke sport. if you are under 169 lbs and don't fight under full MT rules in the stadiums you're pretty much a clown. Now I'm gonna go watch rampge ko abidi under kickboxing rules

>kunlun
LOL

Tenshin already fought and won under full Thai rules. He doesn't fight in stadiums because he doesn't want to have to deal with crooked gambling syndicates taking his entire purse and having to fight twice a week to eat.
Kunlun have the deepest pockets of any promotion and just nailed Tawanchai, the best Thai fighter on the planet and the fighter of the year 2018, for their next tournament. You are a boomer casual.

Based

It's not even the loss. It was his massive ego and the way he handled the loss. It was supposed to be a friendly exhibition match until the little faggot decided he could actually take the greatest boxer of the past 30 years down despite having no boxing experience and being 4 inches shorter and 20 lbs lighter.

Floyd was in there having fun for the first 15 seconds until Tenmeme actually started throwing bombs. You could literally see the moment Floyd said to himself "fuck this" and decided to destroy him. Also him crying like a little bitch for 10 minutes straight afterwards.

His reputation is ruined whether you want to admit it or not.

Anybody have a stream?
