Kimbo Slice was saved by the bell......

[speed dawg]

I'm a Kimbo fan, but geez, he lost that fight, and it was an injustice to that English guy he fought. He was dropping bombs on Kimbo's head at the end of the second round.

Slice really needs to refine his boxing skills. I did, however, think he performed well on the ground before he got tired.

Wrong...its MMA buddy....nobody gets saved by any bell. Those are the rules, dude couldnt finish him by the end of the round he has to wait for the next one. Why dont you blame the english boxer for not dropping his fists fast and hard enough so the ref can stop it faster??

Or better yet, why not blame him for having a cauliflower ear, because everyone knows if he didnt have that kimbo would have never popped it and had his blood pouring out and the ref would have never stopped the fight.

 

[speed dawg]

If it had been any other fighter, the ref would have stopped the fight at the end of the 2nd round, when he was getting pummelled.

 

[Ken785]

Wrong...he was laying there but he was trying to block the punches with his hand, therefore it is intelligently defending himself. You sound like a new MMA fan that doesn't really know what MMA is about.

I thought Kimbo tapped I think it was the second round. I think he was in a choke hold but it's hard to remember.

He probably wanted to but was too tired.

I agree with "speed dawg", kimbo got saved. I don't like how Kimbo has all this hype, yet he hasnt beaten anyone. That british guy gave kimbo all that he could handle and i wouldn't even say he was that great of a fighter.

 

[Ken785]

Kimbo is a street fighter and is just a beginner at MMA. He needs a lot of work still, but ive seen his street fight videos and hes the last person the would want to start sh!t with...

Ok here comes my rant:

I actually can't stand people who keep on saying that (nothing personal Ken). Oh wow so what? you follow this sport for over 10 years before it became mainstream? you know all the fighter's names and their moves? you are an amateur MMA fighter?? big fvcking deal!, its called fvcking sport entertainment not some religion to follow and worship. You are no different then the casual sport fan today who is caught up in the hype while watching mostly a boring fight with two guys wrestle mostly on the ground for the majority of the time (oh and please spare me the line " you just don't understand the skill of the sport to apperciate ground work and enjoy the fight"). :box: :cuss:

This has been packaged so good and hyped to the young crowds in such a way that dissing a MMA will make one seem like an outsider and nobody wants to be an outsider. Just recognise the fact like everything else that is out there (when someone is making money out of), you are being bamboozled and slowly conditioned to liking it.

Please, those fights are screened, they let kimbo fight bums, look at what happened when he fought some who knew what the heck he was doing,(Sean Gannon?) he lost. I mean don't get me wrong, kimbo is a beast, just don't by all this hype. Besides he is new to the sport, but at 34 years old he better learn quick. But yeah, they'll keep putting bums in front of him to fight just so they can build him up.

That shyt was rigged, straight up. It's run by Mr. Mafioso Gary Shaw who randomly talks of fight bonuses after the Lawler-Smith battle. Not to mention he was there lecturing the first fighter after his victory and taking up the whole fvcking screen. Let's see, Carano not making weight, Phil Baroni deflated (as in no fvcking steroids, that's a 1st), and that guido ref who clearly was IN ON IT and constantly wiping Kimbo's a$$hole.

I'm sorry but I had more fun watching the TUF marathon on Spike and the WEC bouts which both hold much higher talent than those boring primetime fights. I'll give Lawler credit but that's it. Fvck, even the UWC event I saw live held a better pool of competitors, refs, commentators and atmosphere.
