K-1 fuses centuries of tradition from the martial arts into a thoroughly modern and electrifying spectator sport. The K-1 World Grand Prix is a heavyweight tournament with rules that are acceptable to all standing martial arts. The letter K appears in Karate, Kung Fu, Kickboxing, and Taekwondo, and the number 1 simply means the best and the strongest martial artist in the world. The elaborate staging of K-1 events makes these extravaganzas a veritable feast for the senses music, lighting, lasers and purotechnics are all a part of the show. Honour and respect rule in the K-1 arena as the combatants draw on their finely hined skills to deliver clean punches and kicks that make K-1 the most sophisticated and advanced combat sport in the world today. Watch all the action from 2003 as eight men all strive to take the K-1 UK Max crown.
