He was aggressive and scared the fuck out Bo Cantrell...man I aint ever seen a dude so scared in a long time....Bo got all cocky throwing a swinging back fist right away, missed and Kimbo went after him, Bo got scared, dropped by an uppercut and got pounded....KIMBO SLICE!!!



he obviously is unproven though since the fight was so short

I agree. Kimbo has been impressive in his last couple fights, but he hasn't really been tested against any competition. They'll give him someone tough tho and then we'll see.

I'm not a Kimbo fan, but I do like the fact he's taking this sport really seriously. Training with Bas etc.

I think he's going to struggle when he fights a good wrestler though but that's just my opinion, I don't see him train, I don't know how competent he is on his back. I don't think EliteXC will match him up with any form of ground guy for around a year, they wanna' build him up to be a title contender.

Just wanna say i'm dissapointed with Diaz man, that really sucked.

I hate seeing a fight end because of a cut, but Diaz was getting his face beat in. Those little pitter pat punches weren't doing crap for him and Noon's takedown defense was too good.

I still don't know what to make of Kimbo. He's got a big punch but thats about all I've seen. I'd really like to see how his ground game is coming along with him working with Bas and all. That would be awesome if he went Brad Imes and started gogo'ing people.

I didn't see the Kimbo fight but people that did watch it told me it looked like it may have been fixed. That his opponent took the fall and tapped before he even started to get pounded on... does anyone who saw it think any like that?

yeah i wouldnt say it was rigged but i would say that although kimbo may still be untested he stands in the same position as soko and houston. who a lot of people have high expectations for

The thing about Kimbo is that so far in his 2 MMA fights, he has not wanted to just brawl. He rushes his opponent to the cage and tries to use knees, elbows, grappling, etc. he doesnt wanna turn it into a boxing match, he really is serious about this shit...sucks that he had to fight such a sissy bitch last night. still a good win for Kimbo though.
