I watched this a few Saturdays ago on CBS and loved it. Unfortunately I have not seen it since on CBS Saturday night. Anyone know if this has been cancelled, or on a different channel ?

TIA

i agree with the last comment thompason had that fight, and i think they robed him, he was on his feet and staggering, but his hands where up and he was punching back, the ref actually stops the fight as thompason is throwing a jab ( which was a realy crapy jab) but at least he was defending himself and fighting back, the bust hear didnt mean shit, it blood so what if Kimbo could have gotten the KO he would have but he was to gassed,….i liked the rest of the card, excepted for the lawler/smith fight , which i think should have continued

Hmm didn’t the last two fights seem like BS.

The outcomes were crap. I hear Smith tell the doctor, I’m ok…

That was BS! They didn’t even give him his five minutes and his eyeball wasn’t even red or anything. Complete crap…they were getting low on time or something.

Kimbo match…. Ending completely sh*t.

I am not saying he wouldn’t have won but why did the ref stop then? If it was the ear then why didn’t he call the Doctor?

If it was because he got rocked by those shots to the head….Umm he wasn’t down or out …… Hell they let the ladies duke it out way past the point of being able to the stop the fight.

Also when Kimbo was laying there, not defending himself for a minute and a half, why wasn’t the fight stopped there?

My guess is they needed Kimbo to win, regardless and so the ref and others kind of did what they wanted on their damn decisions.

I want Kimbo to do well… I firmly believe he is the sh*t and his punches are rockets, but tonight was complete utter bullsh*t.

Most of the card was good, but in my opinion the last two cards were kind of shady.

OH BTW Brett Grim Rodgers is the first fight on the card. How in the heck do you get that, but the guy you beat is in the Main Event. HMMMM

How is this John Colossus Thompson fighting in the main event against Kimbo when he got knocked out against Brett Grim Rodgers in his last fight. Does that warrant an Main Event spot when you get knocked out or is EliteXC just trying to build ratings by setting Kimbo up with easy fights? When is he going to fight someone like Antionio Pezao Silva? If he wants legitimacy then he needs to fight legit fighters. Dont’ get me wrong, Kimbo has good hands and I loved watching his fights on the internet, but if he wants the respect of a legit fighter, then prove it against legit fights.

HANDS of STEEL Scott Smith should get to fight Cung Le if he can beat Ruthless Robbie Lawler. I would say the winner of this fight should get a title shot against Le . but I think Robbie would get destroyed by leg kicks, just like Pete Spratt did.

I like these fights as well and want Kimbo to win very badly but, he is fighting a badass dude. Thompson is 6′5″ and ripped and can definately throwdown so Kimbo will have, by far, the toughest match of his life against this guy. I just hope Kimbo dominates him so everyone will quit saying he hasn’t faught anybody good or anyone with a well rounded fight game. Come on Kimbo!!!

all around good card. I wouldn’t mind seeing kimbo fight any of the five in the poll.

sean gannon - personal rematch. screams grudge match.

ken shamrock - still hall of famer though way out of his prime

don frye - hard hitter, pretty good record = slug match. i think it makes sense to be a good stepping stone so kimbo can get some experience before bigger tests. kimbo hasn’t been pushed yet or backed up. you got to at some point in your fight career.

buzz berry - came off his biggest win against shamrock (though ken’s riding huge losing streak). kimbo came of his biggest win so far against tank (although abbot’s like 9-14 though). see which one really has what it takes to make it big.

Big foot = biggest test. silva came of his first decision win over what many consider a washed up ricco rodriguez and is having knee surgery now. but is still a good and huge fighter from att. I don’t think Kimbo is used to fighting guys much bigger than him.. possibly i may be wrong.
