kimbo slice???

then






now








i dont know to me something looks off.. looks like kimbo been eating to many slices in his time away from MMA. should make for an interesting fight

I hope Shamrock crushes him lol

yeah man i hope so too. it should take kimbo about 3 minutes until he is completely gassed out. it looks like ken really put work in for this fight and id hate to see him get smashed by someone like this.

I feel dirty after watching that fight, like I just watched snuff porn or something....

Was that fight staged or something? How does Ken not finish that choke?

Good comeback from Pitbull.

I was thinking the same thing early on when Shamrock went for one of the most awkward takedowns in the opening seconds of the fight.

Yeah, and it was so easy too.
Kind of awkward and too easy like the TD Couture had against Toney.

what about that strange clinch that they had. that looked really shady.
something seemed really off in that fight.
the take down was for shit and that choke.. that choke.. my 12 year old could have finished kimbo with that choke.
but that punch that kimbo hit ken with was as real as hell. he fucking blasted him hard.

Didnt realize you guys were discussing it here already

Yeah the punch was real for sure. He opened up a vag on Ken's forehead. Like Rogan said; I bet they had the fix agreement, but Kimbo just saw the opportunity to blast him and couldn't resist. lol

So Ken is saying he thought Kimbo tapped at the 2:57 mark, so he let up a bit. When Big John didn't stop it he tried to re-apply pressure but Kimbo was able to get a hold of his gloves by then.

Assuming there was no fix, that's at least somewhat logical as his hands did flatten out on the mat at that point. Still no way that was a tap and still a sore loser comment as someone who's been involved with MMA that long should know you never stop until the ref stops it.

Yeah imo 1 of 3 things happened:

1) Ken was paid to throw the fight and Kimbo was not in on it. This would explain the phantom tap by kimbo, but not the clinch.

2) Like Rogan said they had an agreement and Kimbo cracked him anyways.

3) And most likely imo - They had an agreement and Ken told Kimbo to go ahead and crack him to make it look realistic. Dont forget we are talking about a guy who was known to be one of the only guys willing to take full head chair shots in the wwe for realism (this is also the reason imo his chin is gone, not mma).

It wasn't a sore loser comment. He was defending himself and trying to explain what happened because people are saying he threw the fight...

fight definitely looked shady and to be honest it wouldnt surprise me if shamrock or kimbo were in on fixing it. but why? why would they do that? its not like any of them are elite fighters. even if they did fix the fight who cares at least we saw shammy get his head crushed by a beautiful right hand

Well relevance aside, it would be disgusting to find out that this was a fix, because that would be two possible such instances (Tito/Shlemenko) to go along with one absolute shit show abomination (that ridiculous Tito/Bonnar wrestling promo nonsense).
That's way, waaaaay too much bullshit in way too small of a timeframe for Bellator to ever again even sniff anything resembling legitimacy.

The Tito/Schlmenko fight was talked about being rigged? This one is certainly the better candidate of the two I would think.

Just rewatched the Tito fight... I never had that in mind watching it, but now... It's questionable...

Yeah and the fact that Shlemenko is a sponsored fighter under Tito's clothing line or something like that only further muddies the waters.
