If I had to chose between Kimbo fighting Big Ben or Tank, I’d pick Ben. I really don’t see Tank doing anything to hurt Kimbo except maybe, maybe KO’ing him with his first 20 punches or so. Slice’s head looks like 5 pounds of granite so him getting KTFO by Tank really seems slim to me.

Whoever he fights in EXC, I’ll be watching it fo’ sho’.

Sorry, Mr. Takedown. I can’t act like I haven’t had to doctor pics for the IFL site before. Let me tell you, it ain’t easy trying to take some dude’s MySpace profile picture and turn it into something usable for an online fight card.

Wow. At least the above picture doesn’t look like a mugshot or anything. Seriously, did they just stand him up in front of a blank wall for that photo?

In any event, I’m glad to see Kimbo get in a real org. Now maybe we can see him fight somebody, though they might have a tough time getting a fight with somebody as experienced as Rothwell sanctioned, given the disparity in records. What’s Sean Gannon up to these days?

hopefully all the hype behind Kimbo will be good for his performances…im just hoping he’s going to prove that he’s a great fighter.

Great addition.

You can’t deny that he is entertaining to watch and he will sell seats and PPV’s.

Davey D, you will have to wait til next year for Kimbo versus Rothwell. Even though he is out of the Grand Prix, Ben is under their control until the end of the year. I would assume they will just make the Kimbo vs. Tank fight again.

Ben Vs Kimbo…hey why not… How much does Kimbo weigh?

Ugh…wish Fedor had inked up with EliteXC.

It was only a matter of time before an org put some faith into Kimbo gave him his shot. I believe he will succeed. This might sound funny but how about Ben Rothwall vs. Kimbo Slice? I’d pay to see that one.

If Kimbo continues to train with Bas, I think he’ll grow and become a fighter to be feared for some time.

You mean Showtime? They have shows there yes.

Kimbo got his bread I suppose.
