HERO'S 85 kilogram tournament semifinalist Melvin Manhoef held his media workout at K-1 EX in Roppongi this morning. The hard-hitting Dutchman, who showed up late to the gym for his workout, has actually spent the last week and a half in Japan, as he arrived on September 26th to accompany teammate Badr Hari to the K-1 World Grand Prix Eliminations.

Manhoef revealed that the was in great shape and didn't have to worry about jet lag, and felt ready to fight at that very moment. He was bold in his comments to the media, telling them that he is a warrior by nature, and has single-handedly won street fights against seven and eight people at once.

Discussing his bout with Oyama, Manhoef said, "I'll KO him for sure. Then Akiyama will be in the finals, I'll KO him too, and I'll take the belt."

Manhoef then took to the ring with three training partners to work out for the press. The Cage Rage 93 kilogram champion showed off exactly what has come to be expected from him, displaying fierce power and uncanny quickness, smashing the focus mitts with punch combinations. Manhoef also showed powerful middle kicks, and an array of flying knees which dazzled the media.

Manhoef's power also gave one training partner more than he bargained for, as Manhoef showed off his ground and pound for the media, and actually knocked his training partner out. Manhoef's partner rolled over and was incoherent, as the rest of his team tried to communicate with him, and even poured water on him in an attempt to revive him. Finally, Manhoef's teammate-turned-victim rose to his feet, and Manhoef continued sparring as though nothing had happened.

Manhoef was informed not long after that his workout time was over, as his opponent Shungo Oyama was scheduled to work out. "I am practicing now!" Manhoef yelled. "Make him wait outside in Roppongi Hills!"

"Defeat isn't in my dictionary," declared Manhoef. "I'm going to win this tournament, and take the belt, then I'm going to fight like crazy. I'm going to beat the K-1 heavyweights, and take the Grand Prix belt."

85 kilogram competitor Melvin Manhoef, who caused a stir at his public workout earlier this week with his wild antics, including knocking out one of his training partners, again dabbled in mischief at the weigh-ins, albeit more gently. While his opponent Shungo Oyama weighed in, Manhoef, who weighed in at 84.6 kilograms, stepped on the back of the scale. Oyama, sans Manhoef's foot, weighed in at 83.7 kilograms.
