STFU Kimbo won over more fans in his loss last night that Puke Lesnar did in any of his wins. Kimbo's been humble, gracious, grounded, and eager to learn. He never asked to be a part of the hype machine, he just wants to fight. I think it's fitting that a Puke Lesnar fan would be totally against Kimbo. Two totally different spectrums when it comes to displays of class. Kimbo displays tons Lesnar has none "Puke" Lesnar eh? How long did it take you to come up with that one? Sounds like something a ing 4-year-old would say. You cannot possibly compare, let alone mention Kimbo and Brock Lesnar in the same sentence. That's like comparing solid gold (Brock Lesnar) to a pile of stinkin' horse crap (Kimbo Slice). Kimbo wishes he was where Brock is at this point and from the sounds of it, so do you. But God-willing, that will never happen. Brock is the current UFC Heavyweight champ. What the is Kimbo Slice? The champ of the ing K-Mart parking lot?? I wonder if I offered Kimbo 20 bucks if he'd fight in my backyard and let me film it and then post it on Youtube. I would throw in a a can of Pringles for free. I'm sure Kimbo would appreciate that. Being the street-fighter he is and all. He's probably used to rummaging through trash. I don't give a flying if Kimbo has won over fans or any of that crap. After all that wasted hype of the constant commericals airing over and over again hyping his ass up, he still proves what a dud he truly is. I'm glad he ing lost and if he does get lucky enough to get a 2nd chance which he doesn't deserve, I hope he loses again and goes back to the ing Burger King parking lot where he belongs. He's a ing bum. End of story. All this yammering coming from the same guy who said he knew Forrest Griffin would destroy Anderson Silva. Heh.

I was one that hated Kimbo before the show. I admit I judged the guy before I knew him. I actually gained a ton of respect for him.
I think they marketed him so much because this is not the Kimbo everyone (including myself) expected.
I can honestly say I am now a fan of his. It is to hard to dislike a guy that is willing to learn, showing respect to everyone and being a team player. Sure he isn't where he needs to be. But with the attitude he has shown he could get their.

So my prediction looks to be correct: Next week it's Kimbo vs Schaub. Just look at this clip from last nights episode, obviously it's a clip from next weeks episode but was tacked onto last nights for some reason. Everyone thought this conversation was about Roy and Kimbo's fight, but they're actually talking about Kimbo vs Schaub. You can hear Roy say "get him in the crucifix position and you're landing unanswered shots, YOU KNOW LIKE I WAS"

Nice catch, that does make it seem pretty clear what next week's fight will be.

Wow, what a huge failure by the TUF editing producers/editors.

But with the attitude he has shown he could get their. Totally agree with this. He's come off as completely likable without relying on any tough guy, street thug bs. Is the season hype deserved by him? Probably not. But he's handled it with a lot of class thus far.

Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if Kimbo didn't fight next week. This could all be a ploy just to get us see him fight again. It very well could be Demico fighting next week.

I think the reason they are putting so much into Kimbo in the first three to four episodes is so the haters will stop hating. I've always had nothing but respect for the guy and every interview he's been through he seems humble and constantly talking about how he just wants to learn and fight. I don't see him winning the season even if he does come back, but I'd like to see him win another one or two if possible.
Kimbo's biggest problem is lack of experience. Training and practice is completely different than being out there in the real thing. The more fights he has the more he'll learn to do things by instinct. From what I saw when he got on the ground, the first time he listend. Corner said push off the cage, he did and rolled out of it a bit. At that point he bottled up and became a turtle on its shell. In the 2nd round he didn't even try to push Nelson off of him. I could tell the only thing going through Kimbo's mind was breathing, he wasn't trying to control Nelson at all, he was just trying to get his wind. Nelson cake walked into the crucifix position and did what he knew was easy to do to get the win. If Kimbo had just pushed off and bridged a bit he could have rolled out of that, hell any experienced wrestler would have rolled it.
Once he gets some more fights under his belt and has more ground experience in actual matches he'll come around.

Well technically... if he says "Kimbo wins but Dana reverses the decision, resulting in a Nelson victory" like I've understood... then he got the winner right. Just got every other aspect of the fight completely wrong. I will watch the fight on Saturday night when TUF 10 airs over here in the UK. I was trying to hold off on the result but didn't know when it was broadcast in the US so unfortunately found out in here about two hours ago. He did not say that. He said Dana had the chance to reverse the decision, but did not. That doesn't make any ing sense whatsoever anyway. Cool. I just took half of the statement. Nothing large enough to argue about. Sorry dude.

Have you guys read any of the recent Interviews from Nelson? He's really getting in over his head with arrogance, lol. He talks about how he and kimbo are cool and what not, almost buddy-ish to a certain extent, then when asked about Kimbo fighting again on TUF he just shrugs it off with sure he might fight again then he can lose to someone else.

He didn't "kill" him. He just did exactly what he said he would do.

I still think Kimbo fights Schaub eventually, the clip I posted a few posts up just tells it all. I figure they will milk a Kimbo return for the next two weeks. Shame Rampage walked out on Demico after his fight. Demico put up the best effort out of the last 4 fighters on Team Rampage.

how embarrassing if Rampages team doesn't win ONE fight...
he really did a horrible job picking the team..
with that said I'm pretty sure Kimbo will fight again..didn't the previews show him doing some ground and pound on some guy with a tattoo on his arm? Kind of like how Schaubs tattoo looks?

I have a feeling all Suga is doing is setting it up for the Jackson MMA guys to be in the finals. This is shaping up to be the worst season yet, fights are average at best, and the cast interaction is a little bland. I didn't like the peeing in food, drunken rampages but really, a guy sweating a lot and talking about flowers?

I think they definitely need to go back to "fight to get into the house"

Why the hell is Kimbo back? He got raped by Nelson.
