well sheebshag that happens to all and kimbo pussed out and went to the ground where mercer had no skillz! as well as kimbo took a fall in his last fight i which everyone knows he got paid to do! he's a SELL OUT!!!!!!!!
the only reason kimbo won is cause he did what bas rutten told him to do push mercer up against the fence and fight him that way bas is the only reason kimbo was descent beating all those expierenced guys
Tim's definitely got a level-headed opinion on Kimbo. I think people give Tim too much shit for being "boring." He's no Randy Couture or Urijah Faber, but it's pretty damn tough to be a Urijah Faber when you're 6'8''. The man fights well, and I have no problem with a guy who's size is his advantage.
Fedor ruined Sylvia's shit in just over half a minute. Still if Kimbo and Sylvia fought i would put the money on Sylvia. Kimbo needs to beat someone who isn't a chump, then he'll get some respect IF he wins. Still the people who think he could beat Liddell or Fedor are idiots who've drank too much mountain dew.
well kimbo is a scary dude with a hard shot and a good jaw but guys like sylvia, fedor and leddell are world class i dont think you would see kimbo in the ufc anytine soon...cuz hes a markiting sceem there seting him up with people hes going to beat..but i dont know if hes goin to beat brett.
I dont either, as soon as he gets taken down the money stops. He damn near lost to Thompson who was just holding him down for most of the match (which kimbo CLEARLY tapped out on). He isn't going to fight Liddell because he's above him in weight, but he'd get killed in a fight against anyone real.
Yeah, although a fight with people from different weight classes could happen. Fedor and Couture have been trying to get a fight going for awhile. Still i think alot of the light heavyweights could easily knock kimbo's ass down rampage, liddell, silva, couture, any of them. Kimbo is just a big guy who can punch pretty well his skill is lacking though.
Once again.. he didn't tap. Watch the video again MORON and you will see he gives a thumbs up to the ref letting him know the choke isn't hurting him. I take it you don't have a decent tv cause on my 52" HD Plasma it was CLEAR (as you put it) to see he didn't tap. And two more things idiot, when he gives the thumbs up, the announcers even say "He's saying that he's ok". I mean did nobody hear that or something?? and also they asked Thompson himself if Kimbo tapped and guess what,he said NO!!!!
Uh oh i must be a moron because you even put it in caps. He tapped him on the fucking elbow dumbass. Oh wow, you have a 52" HD Plasma, a souvenir of the riots perhaps? Nobody gives a shit that the crowning achievement of your miserable existence is owning a tv, least of all me. Now, return to the sewer where you were hatched.
Truth is as weak as the UFC's heavyweight division is Kimbo really could make some noise there. I dont think kimbo is a top 10 heavyweight in MMA but UFC's heavyweights suck ass bad. Sylvia may be the most overated MMA fighter next to Kimbo after last nights stomping he got in 36 seconds
kimbo needs to fight a real fighter from his weight class, let him fight cro-cop.
cro-cop is a No.2 star mid level fighter,a striker like kimbo if he is as good as his fans wish he was would be able to should be able to KO or TKO him.
I like Kimbo, but after watching all of Fedors fights I realise he has a VERY long way to good and is nowhere near the top. I think Sylvia would beat Kimbo easily, he has alot of training to do before stepping in the ring with some great like Fedor, otherwise it'll be a stop before 36 secs and maybe a death...
kimbo is famous, but not famous from his prowess in the MMA ring. he can strike great. fedor can punch, the best strikers, kick with the best kickers, and out ground and pound the best ground and pounders. and not to mention hes one hell of a flexible guy for his size, able to submit people in many akward positions. kimbo IMO would get taken down in about 25 seconds, after fedor retaliates with a flury from then its over. fedor also has very accurate punches eh rarely misses.
i agree with tim, kimbo is not world class competition... but i almost choked on my cheerios laughing hearing it come out of tim sylvias mouth like he is anything better..
yea ok Tim... That's why you got your ass choked the hell out last nigt by Fedor!!.. You are a tall, peice of overrated shit!! Kimbo would fuck you up, stop hatin' on him, and worry about your losing streak you sorry excuse for a MMA fighter!....TIM SYLVIA IS A FUCKING PUSSY!!! WATCH THE CLIP OF HIM GETTING HIS ASS HANDED TO HIM LAST NIGHT!
no wwe isn't very good not enough stars and useless idiots like cena i wish he would go in mma so they could beat the living crap out of him
Fedor is the best hw ever he is the man he is awesome and will arm bar tim the russian bulldog the machine he will go for an arm bar and tim will not be able to stop him its just that simple the best fight would be couture vs Fedor that would be huge not tim who hasn't been impressive lately
at least kimbo is fun to watch compared to slyvia the slowass boring snooze fest the people only want to see him get knocked out well fedor should submit him and take this big dummy out
I disagree with you bam6956, though Silvia's style is not the big knockout type, his fights are a display of a different athlete than we are used to. He uses his "slowness" to his advantage, has amazing takedown defense, and can definitly connect. he has my respect for sure. The people who are snoozing during Silvia's fight maybe shouldnt be watching fights at all. WWE is that way ---->>
i disagree he is slow and fedor should take care of him easily fedor will take him down he has fighter power and has never lost the loss he had was some minor cut on his face that they called the match he is the man and tim isn't that good if vera didn't break his hand he would have beat tim his advantage is his height but fedor has beaten taller guys that weighed more
im a Fedor fan dumbass, im just sad that MMA attracts people like you. I liked it better when only hardcore fans watched it. The best man will win. It is you who cant face the reality that your watching the wrong sport. WWE----------->
bs that is alll that you are talking slyvia is boring unexciting and will lose to the man the legend fedor why do you keep bringing in wwe its fake mma is real and i like seening whose best overall technical fighters not made up shit and bodybuilding contests i have been watching fighting since back in the 90's so to say your hardcore is bs people are allowed to have opinions that are different then yours and if i think hes boring hes boring to me and alot of people
bc it will be very funny when tim loses well you never know maybe tim will catch him with something but i doubt it it would be a big upset if tim wins and fedor is very entertaining to watch
Fedor is basically undefeated. Gayna white talks shit about GREAT fighters when he was NEVER A GREAT FIGHTER. The worst guy EVER on UFC at any weight would kill Dana. Pride was rivaling UFC so UFC bought it and closed it down. Dana is not doing what is right for the fighters or for the sport. He is doing what will fill his pockets and swell his bloated ego.
fuck tim silvia and to hell with whats his fuck o yeah fedor randy couture is the man o i almost forgot fuck Dana white pay those fighters their money and way togo forrest even thoe you have to knock the champ out and kimbo you're good but id like to really see you fight some one of a higher caliber
tim sylvias pissed cuz he's been around alot longer and people find kimbo more entertaining when kimbo is still an up and comer. kimbo not the one tellin the kids to watch his fights its the kids doin it themselves. if people dont want kids lookin up to kimbo take the fuckin computer outta there room and stop bitchin
naw, they gonna protect kimbo! Keep him from any serious competition. The last elitexc show efore kimbo, thompson lost against brett rogers who is still undefeated. Why would a guy who lost, get the main card? Kimbo needs protecting, he needs easy wins to build a fan base so they can attach an "unbeatable" myth to him.
if you thoughtkimbo was a top dog before the fight with thompson,fine he was on a roll.
But after seeing james tool him on the ground for 10 minutes and kimbo barely being able to breath and give a post fight interview ( after 2 rounds,not even 3 full rounds)
If you Think he can hang with Any top tier fighter your amoron,he has yearrrssssss to go.
I agree 100%. In a bar fight, Kimbo Slice could kick alot of people's asses, including mine. But when it comes to MMA, he would simply be outclassed by any one of the top fighters, whether it be Fedor, Couture, Nogueira, or Hollywood Arlovski. Put him against somebody like Josh Barnett and Kimbo doesn't make it past the first. To make it in modern MMA, you have to be very versitle; UFC is no longer a freak show where Tank Abbott can fight guys half his size
i agree...kimbo is a good fighter but hes the biggest marketing sceem ever....they are putting him with people that hes gonna kill....they didnt think thompson would last that long because he lost his last to fights by knockout but look what happend....he took him and im still not happy that they stoped that fight....but if they put him up with someone half decent he would get slaughterd.
your partly right, but you are ignoring the biggest fact which is that Kimbo has only had 3 PRO fights, if you and the rest of the people who seem to be ignoring this fact would do some research into some of the best fighters in the world, you would realize that in their first 10 PRO fights they were also fighting scrubs. Kimbo's opponents are picked correctly given his experience, it would be unfair to match up Kimbo vs Silvia or Fedor, we are just watching a newbie's career from the begining.
you are correct in everything you stated... you cant match up an inexperienced fighter with someone like Fedor or Sylvia. He'd get killed.
However, you stated, some of the best fighters fight 10 scrubs in the beginning. This is true, but they also do this "building block" when they are in their early 20's not in their 30's!
By the time Kimbo understands MMA and has skill, he will be too old to be effective. If he were 22 years old right now, id say he could have a chance, but he's too old.
Since Kimbo is like 32, i would say he has about 3-5 years left in him TOPS.... so lets say he averages 3 fights per year (which is reasonable w/ his marketing). He has approximately 12 more fights left in his career at this rate (assuming he will not be a Randy Couture that can hang with the best at 40 yo).
That being said, within 8 fights he needs to fight a Josh Barnett or credible HW and not get killed to gain respect. After his Thompson display, that is highly unlikely! Not enough time.
"Not enough time."<--thats for sure, he entered the game too late, it takes years to gain a decent ground game, by the time he puts time in, he's out, so I say just enjoy his fights, dont expect him to fight any greats, hey Im a Kimbo fan, I been watching his fights since they first put them up, you wanna see a stud, watch the other dudes that fought, "Ray vs. Jorge"...that Jorge is Jorge Masvidal, that dude is gonna be somebody to be reckoned with in the future and now.
i actually find Kimbos fights entertaining as well.1 thing for sure is regardless who he fights,its entertaining.
I just hate how big MMA is now and how full it is of people that are fucking lost and think Kimbo is the next Fedor because he beat a 90 year old Tank or a 50 year old retired boxer.These online Kimbo nutjobs dont realize fighting in MMA and fighting some chump in a local bar is 2 totally different things.Kimbo could have been a great HW if he were 22 not 32 training w/ Bas.
the people that think that kimbo would beat or will be the next Fedor have no clue about MMA, you know how many fighters I though were gonna kill people with 1 shot, or dominate forever? Time has taught me that everybody looses. Where the fuck is Belfort and Crocop now?
Ironically, MMA fights are more like bar fights than the street fights that Kimbo has had. Those street fights actually have a lot of rules! No hitting on the ground, limited time in the clinch e.t.c. I think Kimbo could do ok but I don't think he'll ever have the ground game to challenge the top guys in MMA.
tim is not hatin on kimbo... he's just giving his honest opinion... the lawler fight did deserve to be the headliner but people aren't tuning in to watch his fights... people are much more interested in watching kimbo slice fight, even if it's against a sub-par fighter... anyways, right now kimbo would not want to fight someone as good as tim sylvia because he would get his ass handed to him.
I think after the Thompson fight,Kimbo is realizing he isn't going to make it in mma.He will go on to something else like side show fighting.He will be with the Butterbean,Bob Sapp,and Tyson.Just circus clowns.
As long as the money is pourin in he will continue to think he can hang.
when you have Bas in your corner telling you that you can hang, you'll try and hang, fight some cans and build a record till the wrecking ball comes down.
lolz wtf. hes giving it attention. events like elite xc etc non mma fans watch...and then they see the other fights on the card and witness the beauty of mma.... kimbo is just the bait.

"Not enough time."<--thats for sure, he entered the game too late, it takes years to gain a decent ground game, by the time he puts time in, he's out, so I say just enjoy his fights, dont expect him to fight any greats, hey Im a Kimbo fan, I been watching his fights since they first put them up, you wanna see a stud, watch the other dudes that fought, "Ray vs. Jorge"...that Jorge is Jorge Masvidal, that dude is gonna be somebody to be reckoned with in the future and now.

i actually find Kimbos fights entertaining as well.1 thing for sure is regardless who he fights,its entertaining.
I just hate how big MMA is now and how full it is of people that are fucking lost and think Kimbo is the next Fedor because he beat a 90 year old Tank or a 50 year old retired boxer.These online Kimbo nutjobs dont realize fighting in MMA and fighting some chump in a local bar is 2 totally different things.Kimbo could have been a great HW if he were 22 not 32 training w/ Bas.
WanderleiSilva29 3 years ago
the people that think that kimbo would beat or will be the next Fedor have no clue about MMA, you know how many fighters I though were gonna kill people with 1 shot, or dominate forever? Time has taught me that everybody looses. Where the fuck is Belfort and Crocop now?
Jdollaz03 3 years ago
Belfort is on the preliminary card for Affliction.... his career went to shit after his sister was murdered.
Crocop is in Dream now (which is basically Pride, they just changed the name), but missed Dream IV due to surgery on his knee.
I hear you though.... you can never tell with this sport.
WanderleiSilva29 3 years ago
Ironically, MMA fights are more like bar fights than the street fights that Kimbo has had. Those street fights actually have a lot of rules! No hitting on the ground, limited time in the clinch e.t.c. I think Kimbo could do ok but I don't think he'll ever have the ground game to challenge the top guys in MMA.

tim is not hatin on kimbo... he's just giving his honest opinion... the lawler fight did deserve to be the headliner but people aren't tuning in to watch his fights... people are much more interested in watching kimbo slice fight, even if it's against a sub-par fighter... anyways, right now kimbo would not want to fight someone as good as tim sylvia because he would get his ass handed to him.

I think after the Thompson fight,Kimbo is realizing he isn't going to make it in mma.He will go on to something else like side show fighting.He will be with the Butterbean,Bob Sapp,and Tyson.Just circus clowns.

As long as the money is pourin in he will continue to think he can hang.
when you have Bas in your corner telling you that you can hang, you'll try and hang, fight some cans and build a record till the wrecking ball comes down.
