So just to clarify even though difficult it could be possiable to make it to the K1 in Japan and make a living from it?
If that is right do you know how long it would take (best case scenario) and how a fighter could prove themselves for such a prestigious league?

K1 in japan is the culmination of a years worth of contests in various countries to find the top 8 or so. They then fight at the Tokyo dome in Japan for the title.
They make money out of advertising and from sponsorship as opposed to winning fights, the money for winning fights isnt that much and not really enough to live on, though if you win the K1 final its a nice little pay off.
Ive spent the last nearly 2+ years fighting and training in thailand. If you have any questions just ask.
More realistic to cover someone fighting in thailand and doing it for the love of the sport. K1 is very tricky and something people find their way into after fighting successfully already in thai/kick boxing. Its not right for everyone at all.
