Our strategy is to utilize the Norwegian power for the branding to let generic peoples know about Opera in Japan. In fact, the video was watched by more than 14,894 peoples so far.

I think the other was IE. He got kicked in the butt.

Argh! You guys spoiled the fight! I was going to watch the K1 event right now, after finishing UFC 79 and the Yarennoka event. As for Joachim Hansen, I think he’s a decent fighter and deserves a shot in the UFC or HDNet fights.

This was stage one of a long term plan. Now he has completed his training fight, we will let him loose on Asa Dotzler, then finally Steve Ballmer.

Asa has a reputation for dirty tactics in the ring and Ballmers’ use of flying chairs is second to none, I wouldn’t put my money on this weird viking guy in a speedo…

David Storey, I thought we were supposed to keep our plans and strategy on a need-to-know basis.

It was from the K-1 Dynamite!! 2007 event and this particular fight was under MMA rules.

The sport is MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) and some famous MMA promotions include UFC, CageRage, EliteXC and the defunct PRIDE.

It’s great to see my favourite browser and my favourite sport together

I agree with the Werwolf. Maybe it’s because I don’t like any of those sports, wrestling, boxing, etc.

It was a K-1 promoted event. K-1 does MMA as well as kickboxing for those who didn’t know that. Ultimate Fighting is the term that the UFC liked to use back in the day. MMA or Mixed Martial Arts is what people call it these days. And yes it’s actually a real sport, not a “sport”. According to all statistics I’ve seen it’s safer than say boxing, horseriding and many other sports. This fight was decent and Hansen won with a choke for those of you who didn’t understand what happened.
