I'd like to see Cung Le go up against Buakaw "Por Pramuk" of Thailand. I believe both men are undefeated in the ring as of late. In that fight, I'll put my money on Buakaw, but I'm sure Cung Le would give him a very tough fight with his boxing skills and special throws.

the only reason cung le is undefeated is because no one else in K-1 plays his game. they occasionally throw him some sap who has no idea of the rules, but he won't step up to a kickboxing format, and no one big in K-1 wants to fight in a match that works the way san shou does. I think he either needs to enter K-1 properly or MMA before the head honchos start to take him seriously.

Don't get me wrong
Originally posted by Mike BrewerI think Cung Le is an awesome fighter, but I too would like to see how well he'd hang with rules closer to the UFC or even straight kickboxing. Still, you can't take anything away from the guy. He pulls off some throws that even Judo guys would be proud of, and he does it against guys who are trying to punch and kick him, so give credit where it's due. He also trains like a madman, and I don't think I've ever seen him step in the ring in anything less than top condition.
That said, it would be nice to see how well that skill carried over when the rules weren't as familiar. As long as he competes in major shows under a different set of rules than the rest of the field, people will always wonder if he's really a great fighter, or if he's just good at his own game.

I'd come down to your Bay Area gym but I'm unfortunately from far away.
