I really want to see him taken down.... to the ground that is. I am interested to see what kind of ground skills he has. I'm not saying I want him to lose, I just want to see how much more game he has. i think it is a little hard, maybe even unfair to judge him as amazing or terrible, until we get to see his whole skill set. Not saying he should enter the abu dahbis or anything but it would be nice to see him get tested and hopefully pass. i love his movement and compact punching and he is exciting for sure.

I'll be excited to see when he can prove himself. EXC will need to start ramping up his competition otherwise the MMA hardcore fans will start to get impatient and we'll be arguing about hype vs. reality for a long time. He's basically EXC's only star so they will milk him for as long as possible. Maybe if they can land/build some more talent, they won't have to worry about risking a Kimbo loss.

Do you feel better about yourself now? Where am I being a smartass?? Since you apparently have a comprehension problem, let me simplify my comments for you. I don't think Kimbo has established in the cage that he should be the most popular fighter in the world, it just doesn't balance with his accomplishments. HOWEVER, I do think he should be getting all this hype and more, in order to spread the popularity of mma to non-fans. I also respect the dedication he has put in to his training and hope he succeeds to live up to all the hype. You are in such a hurry to try and look smart, that you actually decided to "call out" someone who agrees with you. he is a hard working, exciting, polarizing fighter. If he succeeds it will be good for mma as a more widely accepted sport. Next time, instead of calling people names, why don't you spend a little time reading and understanding the post. Maybe you will realize that you are commenting on something that basically agrees with your stance. “your brain tells you to be an uptight smart ass. my brain looks at kimbo and projects his obvious skills and top training team into the potential greatness that he can achieve in the sport, and will at the very least achieve in short, exciting spurts.”
