Doug Viney Wins K-1 Las Vegas Shocker
LAS VEGAS, August 11, 2007 -- Doug Viney came to the Bellagio Hotel and Casino carrying his own bags, inconspicuous in an entourage that included K-1 superstar Ray Sefo and World Grand Prix Tournament favorite Alexandre Pitchkounov. Viney had a minor role to play, he was slotted for the tournament reserve bout -- an undercard contest that takes place while the house lights are half on and the stands are half empty, long before pyrotechnics and music trumpet the "elite" fighters' arrival. But when the night was over, Viney was standing center stage with the tournament trophy and a spot in next month's K-1 WGP Final Elimination in Seoul. It is an understatement to say that this was one hell of an achievement for Doug Viney.

LAS VEGAS, August 9,2007 -- Whether it's billabong poker, indoor skydiving or a comely companion -- you can find just about anything you're looking for in Las Vegas. But this morning Scott Coker's K-1 USA production team were stumped. Finally, just minutes before the World Grand Prix in Las Vegas press conference, Tony Valente rushed into the Bellagio Hotel and Casino with a wide smile on his face. His frantic search, covering more than 65km/40miles, was a success -- Valente had found the flag of the Republic of Belarus.
