Kimbo Slice EliteXC's star is touted as one of MMA's greatest fighters, I want to see this guy fight a non brawler. For example when Kimbo was defeated (YES he has lost an unsactioned fight) by Boston cop Sean Gannon. If a fighter who can take a few hits and has a strong submission background with the size to manage Kimbo will BEAT him. The key here is whoever fights Kimbo needs to be able to tire him out while taking his heavy blows in the first.
Let's review the Thompson fight, Thompson is a brawler just like Kimbo. Nothing about that fight was technical and if Thompson didn't have a fetus hanging from his ear (ear.jpgear.jpg) he would have won. Kimbo could barely breathe even 10 minutes after the end of the fight, I am sorry he couldn't handle a serious ground game if dished out.
Kimbo fights Brett Rogers in Oct, which I think will be another dismal big man asthma attack. UFC President Dana White should find a solid big man UFC fighter should have big man Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira fight Kimbo. How great to see a UFC Vs. EliteXC fight?

If and coulda would shoulda... Thats great that 'if' Thompson didnt have that thing on his ear he would have won. But he did have it and he lost. Deal with it. Im not a Kimbo fan just tired of all the haters... Which is what you are.
