A fat slob beat Kimbo Slice

Post by hibbingviking »

Kimbo is pathetic. He has no ground skills at all. how could a fat slob like roy nelson beat him?
kimbo was out of gas and had no ground skills. cant teach an old dog new tricks.

A fat slob who's been fighting 5 times as long and has almost 20 fights against some damn good competition...

You really need to watch more MMA if you think Roy Nelson is just a "fat slob". Like Demi said hes been around he is a good fighter.

Let's put it this way...it was kind of a boring fight...and a bit of a letdown to see KIMBO! get beat.

I still respect Kimbo. He conducts himself in a very respectable manner, he's not just some dumb street thug that's for sure.

You also can't blame him for the huge hype that built up around him. Blame that on that promotion company that signed him. They saw him and the popularity of his street fight vids on youtube and thought "Cha-ching! Here's the cash chow we've been praying for"

I'm glad. Hopefully magazines and websites and fight fans wont piss away anymore time talking about this gimmick who fought in fixed fights.

even dana white said roy nelson didnt do much in the fight. bimbo slice did even less. the ref shouldnt have stopped the fight however with those pillow punches roy was throwing. bimbo wasnt taking any damage and wasnt in trouble. :govikes:

Watch 176 lb Royce Gracie a few years back take on burly guys weighing up to 80 pounds more than him and submitting all of them. Its the skill level and calm factor that wins these fights.
