No place for honor in K-1: Akebono

AP , HONOLULU

Akebono promises today's fight will feature no running or chasing -- just two mega-heavyweights "unloading" on each other.

He downplays his first loss to Choi in March.

"Basically, I went to his backyard to fight him. Now he has to come to my hometown and fight me," he said. "Mentally, physically, I've been working hard. I know I cannot lose here in Hawaii."
