K-1 kickboxing : ウィキペディア英語版 | K-1
K-1 began in 1993 and is a kickboxing platform and martial arts brand well-known worldwide mainly for its heavyweight division fights. On January 2012, K-1 Global Holdings Limited, a company registered in Hong Kong, acquired the rights to K-1, and is the current organizer of K-1 events worldwide. ==Name== The letter K in K-1 is officially designated as a representation of words karate, kickboxing and kung fu. Nevertheless, some reports suggest that it represents the initial K found in competing disciplines such as karate, kickboxing, kung fu, kempo, ''kakutougi'' (the generic Japanese term for "combat sports"), and () kwon do.〔Tashiro, H., & Tyrangiel, J. (2001): (Turning the martial arts into mondo mayhem ) ''TIME'' (September 3, 2001). Retrieved on March 4, 2010.〕 Yet another theory claims that the K simply comes from ''kakutougi'' and the "1" component pertains to the single weight division (in earlier competition) and the champion's unique position.〔Maylam, J. (2001): (K-1 hits the spot: Ultimate fighters pack a punch ) ''The Japan Times'' (October 21, 2001). Retrieved on March 4, 2010.〕 Nevertheless, the promotion held several tournaments under K-2 and K-3 banners from 1993 to 1995.
