So.. Kimbo wins another fight.. thoughts?

Cantrell just flopped once he was hit.. Looked like he gave up after the 1st punch

Big time flop, that was pathetic. I want to see Kimbo Slice vs Mike Tyson in a bare nuckle boxing match. That I would pay for, and I would put money on Kimbo.

"I've fought two nig....."
"I've fought two guys in one day! I'll do it again!"


That was a total work. Dropping after a single hit like that is an insult to the sport itself. Although this is Showtime, and it is Kimbo, so I guess it's to be expected.

That was horrilbe what a load of crap

So Ortiz/Evans 2 was begged off by Tito as a result of him caliming to White that he had an injury.

Ends up he was filming on The Apprentice.



What

A

Douche

Hammill/Bisping 2 was delayed for the same reason (injury on Matt), but he tried to not let anyone know. Dangerous, but on the complete other end of the spectrum from the washed up Ortiz. Matt needs to get out of Frito's camp before he rubs off on him.

Tank has reportedly been offered a six-figure payday to fight Kimbo at Showtime's next EliteXC event.

Who knew 1-5 in the last six could be so profitable

Alot of MMA fans will complain that this is a waste of time, but I would definatelly watch this

 

[onebigeric]

I was a closet Tank fan for years and there's still a little part of me that enjoys watching him.

 

[CaptainCharisma]

^thats just cause your curious to see how drunk he comes to the fight

 

[onebigeric]

^Basically At this point I just have this morbid fascination with what Tank will actually do when he shows up, and if it will look anything like fighting. I still remember when he stripped down to that blue grape-smuggler...

Edit- *Shiny* blue

Houston Alexander's head keeps growing.

 

[onebigeric]

Maybe he got hooked on the miracle juice...

That was one of the greatest episodes ever

Sokoujou is fighting Machida at UFC 79...ya who saw that one coming, god i cant wait for this card

 

[onebigeric]

I thought Sokoujou had signed with EliteXC

I've never been more relieved to have been mislead The AA is brutal, but Machida just doesn't quit; that'll make for an excellent bout.

Anyone wanna post the full 78 card.. im too lazy to look for it.
The only fight i know of is Rashad vs Bisping... good match up....but not much of a main event IMO

 

[onebigeric]

I think I need to get back in the habit of posting my predictions on each card, even if it's just to get them shot to pieces. You with me, CC?
