IF THEY WERE GOING TO STOP IT THEY SHOULD HAVE DONE IT WHEN KIMBO WAS EATING ALL OF THOSE ELBOWS IN THE SECOND ROUND. I THINK THAT SOMEONE WAS PAYED OFF . THE STUPID OAF COULDNT EVEN WALK OUT OF THE RING AFTER THE FIGHT. ITHINK THAT REF SHOULDNT BE ALOWED TO CALL ANOTHER FIGHT EVER. THAT FIGHT SATURDAY NIGHT WAS STOPED WAY TO FAST.

FIRST, HE NEEDS TO SHAVE THAT GOOFY FACE, THEN HE NEEDS TO FIGHT SOMEONE REAL. YOU NOTICE HE DOESNT FIGHT ANYONE IN THE UFC, BECOUSE THEY HAVE PLENTY OF PEOPLE THAT WOULD WHIP HIM .

Those guys are both brawlers and are both at virtually the same spot in their careers. I would give a slight advantage to Houston since I know he can use the clinch and his knees. I would have also expected him to have done a lot of focusing on his ground game after his last loss.

I like kimbo as an entertainer but I'm not sold on his MMA skills set. No doubt Mike, It’s hard for Kimbo to be good on his back when he hasn’t been put in that position yet.

Brock's ability to take down Mir was impressive, and I don't think Kimbo has anywhere near the grappling ability of Mir. I've never seen Kimbo try to fight off his back. Elite hasn't matched him with a fighter who has any BJJ or wrestling skills to speak of, suggesting they know it's a weakness for him. One of these days they'll have to pit him against a good grappler, and it will be interesting to see how Kimbo holds up. I've got some doubts. I gotta agree with Derek B on Kimbo vs. Brock.

I don't think that Kimbo would be able to do anything while being face down on the ground with a strong solid wrestler like Brock. No doubt in my mind that Brock would easily be able to ground and pound, but wouldn't want to keep the fight standing up.

A few buddies of mine think Kimbo, and tho I am a fan of Kimbo (Miami native), I would have to give Brock the 1up. Complete sidebar–who would win in a fight between Brock and Kimbo?

I kinda had a feeling that he was going to lose the fight, but I'm hoping to see him stop trying to kill his opponents. no doubt about Thompson.
