K1 Maynard fails again. Guess he got bored wrestling for so many years. But hey if he wants to keep getting KOd cause he thinks hes JDS or Roidreem or whoever, its his career going down the ****hole.

@AllHailKrull, after you get rocked it's basically instinct making him keep up not thought, don't judge ...
