Mike Tyson will be the referee in a K-1 showdown between South African Francois Botha and Jorgen Holm, a K-1 star, whoīs 1-0 as a pro-boxer. The bout takes place on May 20 in Stockholm, writes Aftonbladet.

The new version wonīt ban anything it seems - itīs only that they have to be as safe as amateur boxing, which in effect will stop K 1, Thaiboxing and professional boxing the way it looks today.
