My vote is to can the shinguards and long pads. I used to fight 12 rounds with low kicks, going 2 rounds shouldn't be a problem for a pro.

IMHO.

I don't think imitating Mauy Thai is in the WCL's best interest. Doing whatever everybody else is doing and hoping you can do it better is a flawed approach. I like what we have now and I like the fact that what the WCL does is different. ... besides some of these guys look bad in pants I don't even want to imagine what they look like in shorts... the ladies however is a different story. :)

The league wants your opinion.

Fighters and Fans, what would you like to see next season?

Shin Guards or No Shin Guards.

Also, if you say no shin guards would you prefer board shorts over pants? Please post your comments.

I agree with some about the full throttle is the fighting, as well as, the fighting is stand up. Plus from the last two years I have seen they pride the WCL on Full throttle as well as technical fighters. So anything MMA is out like board shorts and etc...... But since it is stand up maybe something like what alot wear in International, K-1 rules and etc... Muay thai shorts. So Shin Guards or No Shin Guards? Depends on if they are going more International rules or K-1 and Muay Thai rules (Amateur pro has nothing to do with it rules style does). Smile

As a fighter I prefer pants. WCL started in pants and it would be great for them to continue that. Everythibng else depneds on rules style the rather keep.
