whats funnier then the fight is you clowns crying over a guy thats better then you. Why does everyone pretend to hate him. Your insulting your own intelegence looking for ways to say hes a terrible fighter. He could knock out half the MMA before he even knew how to apply the rules to his fights. And are you kidding me with this ‘omfg it gotta be riggzord’ bullshit. Open your eyes an realize that most fighters dont get the chance for main events after only 2 fights because they dont show the potential he does. Instead a trying to make him look like shit with yer words why dont you step into the ring an own his ass. nuff said

First of all, we were 20 minutes into the show before the first fight started. What’s up with that? When I turn on an MMA event, I want MMA, not dancing hotties. When I want to see dancing hotties, I’ll go to Maxim.com.

Second, what’s up with the braindead elementary/incorrect commentary and FYI segments in the beginning? Carano was going for a shin choke and they said that she was trying to pull guard? They had Frank Shamrock in the booth. He knows better. I hate having my intelligence insulted. You don’t hear John Madden explaining how to score points before a football game, do you? If you really want to know the rules and lingo, watch a couple of fights or ask somebody.

I’ll leave the “fixed” thing alone. It’s just so hard to confirm. But there were some pretty lame decisions that were made.

James is right. MMA just got set back 5 years at least. The fights were ugly. There was very little display of grappling (not surprising considering who was on the card) and the officiating was terrible. This is exactly the “I told you so” that nay sayers are looking for.

Kimbo won, but it looked like the ref stopped it prematurely.

What a joke that kimbo fight was , He was fighting yet another mma bum and in the second round looked lost on the ground. The fight was stopped prematurely . How long will the elite XC shelter this guy from real mma talent. Also did you hear the crowd … they were Booing Kimbo , the fans are on to him. I have no problem with grooming a fighter but making a 2-0 fighter the main event , is that the best Elite XC has to offer?

Just watsched this and a bad stoppage in 2 straight fights. It was obvious Elite knew Kimbo was going to lose so they stopped it early. What a fucking joke this outfit is.

Oooo i can tell you that Kimbo will win because elite Xc (cough*A Joke*cough )needs kimbo to be the face of there brand and having your main fighter lose will make you look bad….also the fight is a set up made to make Kimbo win……do u really think Elite Xc will let nay real fighter fight Kimbo and let them kick kimbos ass….Kimbo is okay of a fighter for the first 20 secods after that he is done with no stamina no thing….he will never learn to be a full out fighter and if he does fight with the big boys he will lose toooo fast..by not K.O. But a Tap out or by sleep.

How did Kimbo cheat?

KIMBO is a joke, he cheated to win against Tank Abbott. Kimbo would get killed by Cro Cop, Fedor, Couture, Nog and maybe even Gonzaga. It would be fun 2 watch lesnar and kimbo, that would be the only fight i want 2 see Kimbo in. I think he is boring 2 watch, especially when he cheats like a bitch.

Kimbo Slice isn’t the biggest joke, but he’s definitely got some work to do. He’s fightin’ James (I love to get knocked out) Thompson, so this won’t really be a test at all. On the other hand, Catch 22, If Kimbo wins, it’s expected, if he loses, even worse. They’re setting him up for failure by giving him these weak fights, poor guy!

I agree atom well said but i think he is refering how Kimbo hasnt fought a true test yet. Kimbo’s a beast….granted but i wanna see him face a true opponent
