YES, I am a nerd who watches and talks WAY TOO MUCH about kickboxing! 👨‍💻 My name is Kimball and I am THE KICKBOXING NERD (formerly known as De Kickboks Podcast)! I've been watching kickboxing for a long long time. So I decided; let's make a Youtube channel and talk about kickboxing while having fun! I'm here to spread the beauty of kickboxing. Since I'm from The Netherlands, there's some Dutch content on this channel as well. Anyways, I hope you enjoy my content!

    Was 2025 A Good Year For Kickboxing? | Awardshow

    To support this show, please subscribe to my YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@thekickboxingnerd Today we’re gonna take a look back to last year’s greatest fights, best moments and give out awards in the Best of 2025 in Kickboxing Awardshow. In this year’s award categories we’ve got some familiar ones and new ones (like best haircut of the year). 2025 was a fun year of kickboxing, but not without its flaws. GLORY centered its year around a hugely convoluted heavyweight tournament, a switch in K-1 leadership, Takeru losing by knockout, Rico Verhoeven’s exit from GLORY, sigh.. But at the same time we’ve got some incredible fights like Mory Kromah knocking out Bahram Rajabzadeh, an incredible K-1 World MAX tournament, the return of Antonio Plazibat, Yuki Yoza’s immaculate aura, and so much more! Timestamps 0:00 - Best of 2025 Kickboxing Awardshow 0:35 - New categories and rules 3:18 - Upset of 2025 8:48 - Craziest moment of 2025 13:15 - Knockout of 2025 19:16 - Haircut of 2025 21:39 - Breakout fighter of 2025 23:38 - Event of 2025 27:02 - Organization of 2025 38:56 - Fight of 2025 44:11 - Fighter of 2025 48:52 - Was 2025 good or bad? 49:49 - Giorgio Petrosyan retires 50:21 - What did you think?

    SPECIAL EPISODE: Does Kickboxing NEED Rico Verhoeven and Badr Hari?

    Rico Verhoeven and Badr Hari are THE biggest stars in kickboxing right now. With them at the tail end of their careers I asked myself: “How does the kickboxing landscape look like after Rico and Badr inevitably retire?” Who will follow in their footsteps? But wait, why are there just two big kickboxing superstars? With Rico and Badr on their way out, kickboxing is in dire need of new superstars. But how are superstars built? 🤔 Wow! 🤩 This is my 100th video on the channel! Can’t express my gratitude of your support during the years. I appreciate each and every one of you who followed me on my journey as a guy who talks about kickboxing and spends way too much time editing these video’s.

    ONE 172 Japan Preview Show | Takeru vs Rodtang, Tawanchai vs Noiri, Grigorian vs Kaito & more!

    It’s time to get your jkick fix! In this video, I preview ONE 172 Japan, featuring the highly anticipated showdown between kickboxing superstar Takeru Segawa and Muay Thai phenom Rodtang. But that’s not all, this stacked card also includes: 🥊 Marat Grigorian vs Kaito Ono – A battle between a former GLORY champ and a Shootboxing/RISE champion. 🥊 Tawanchai vs Masaaki Noiri – The return to kickboxing for the Thai sensation against a former K-1 champ. 🥊 Hiroki Akimoto vs John Lineker – The former ONE Bantamweight champ aims to return to form vs the UFC veteran. Some say this might be the best card in ONE Championship history.  Plus, I’ll explain why I haven’t been posting consistently over the last couple of months. 📅 ONE 172 takes place on Sunday 23rd of March in the Super Saitama Arena ▶️ : https://youtu.be/ceQocI883j8 Timestamps 0:00 - Intro 0:23 - Story about my time in Japan 1:58 - ONE 172 Japan 5:44 - Hiroki Akimoto vs John Lineker 7:27 - Marat Grigorian vs Kaito Ono 10:28 - Tawanchai vs Masaaki Noiri 16:37 - Takeru vs Rodtang 21:32 - The future of kickboxing in ONE Championship 23:13 - Why I haven’t been posting consistently If you like this video, I appreciate if you like & subscribe. ► Check out my clips channel: https://www.youtube.com/@TheKickboxingNerdClips  #ONE172 #takeru #rodtang #kickboxing #OneChampionship #k1 #combatsports Support the show I am The Kickboxing Nerd.

    This GLORY Rule Change Could Change EVERYTHING!

    Fans have been frustrated with excessive clinching in kickboxing and there has been a lot of discussions on how ‘damage’ is scored. GLORY introduced changes in their rules to settle these discussions for once and for all. Also, did you know that non-GLORY fights can affect the official GLORY rankings? ► Buakaw: https://youtu.be/u6Xdm-AMxYo  ► Best of 2024 / Awardshow: https://youtu.be/OoN0sBsSk_c  Timestamps 0:00 - GLORY changed their rules 1:17 - Rule 1 - New clinching rule 5:32 - Rule 2 - GLORY defines ‘damage’ 8:42 - Bonus rule - Impact of non-GLORY fights on rankings If you like this video, I appreciate if you like & subscribe. ► Check out my clips channel: https://www.youtube.com/@TheKickboxingNerdClips  #kickboxing #combatsports #glorykickboxing #newrule #muaythai #GLORY98 Support the show I am The Kickboxing Nerd.
