lmmfao.....Did you here the announcer say "which Tank will we see. Sherman or Septic..."
Man Kimbo leaned up...He looked pretty good. I think he would make a good Boxer as well. I thought the tank dude was better than that. But hell he took a hell of a shot. Who was the announcer at the end? He looked like a WWF wrestler. Also is it possible for Kimbo to fight Jackson? DOnt know much about UFC and MMA I thought they were the same.

jackson is light heavy and until they are in the same organization they wont fight and tank.. had knockout power and a decent sprawl but he is too old and cant compete with the guys at his weight nowdays

no one should of thought differently.. tank telegraphs his right hand, his jab is lazy and just kind of flipped out there. he does still have power in his punches but you should be able to step off cause like i already said he telegraphs his punches.

Kimbo is getting better.
He is talented and he is dedicated.
Dedication is what makes these fighters, great fighters.
He will be, but he has alot to learn and alot of training to do in my opinion.
God knows he hits hard.

Honestly Kimbo is making progress but if you look at the overall picture Kimbo has a street bare knuckle brawler mindset.
He stated that he's always wanted to fight Tank and Tyson. Gee calling out a couple of has been's. REAL impressive. Why not call out someone like Brock Lesnar, Andrei Arlovski, Heath Herring or as stated Frank Mir? Those opponents would all be very close in overall size. I am 150% confident in saying that any of the above mentioned fighters would plow Kimbo into the ground like an ox plowing a cotton field.
It would be pretty dumb to put Kimbo in a ring with someone that is a seasoned vet. Brock lesnar may not be a seasoned vet but he is a world class wrestler. In my opinion his management is being smart by bringing him along slowly and having him make some money at the same time. thats what good managers do. It was pretty dumb of brock and his management to put him in the ring with a former champion in only his second fight. Brock did not do anything except cry uncle in under a minute LOL! I would like to see how far Kimbo will have progressed within the next year. After that he should step his game up alot.

I am a little tired of hearing the broken record saying, "... but he hasn't fought anyone yet"
NO SHIT! He is brand new to professional fighting. Obviously the guy is not going to get a title shot right off the bat.
He will most likely have 2 or 3 more bums before fighting someone noteable. That's expected.
He is not the most technically sound fighter in the world, but he is very tough, extremely strong, and dangerous.
I am excited to see him doing well thus far and think he is a marketable fighter. He will be tested in due time, and then we will see what he is made of. But I'm not jumping down his throat for beating the two guys put in front of him, despite Tank and Ray not being the most formidable opponents.
I personally think the good fighters don't want to fight this guy. Too much risk, not enough reward... at least until Kimbo's win record increases.

with his aggressive style of fighting and strength, he has potential to do pretty well in boxing in the heavyweight division.
he would probably make more money in boxing than mma, that is if he can knock guys out like he did in the streets.

He would really have to work on his stamina for boxing, tho I agree he could do well and make lots more money. Plus I think his image would be great for boxing.

I'm not seeing why anyone hates on kimbo and brock. Ya they are new to mma but shit man these guys are 1000000 times the athletes that the haters are. I give them a lot of credit for getting out there and doing it because they got a big learning curve ahead of them. Most of the fighters have decades of training over them. But at least they are very physical and athletic so things will come easier for them. I loved those kimbo vids. And brock is just a monster and a freak of a human being. I think they will do well in mma just give them time.
Oh and I think Kimbo rapes Gannon if they fight now.
