Cage Today:
The plot thickens between the UFC and Kimbo Slice. Dana white commented that Kimbo and Forrest Griffin were sparring and Kimbo got knocked out by a headkick.
Kimbo comes back and says that he didnt get knocked out but Forrest did surprise him with a headkick. He also called Dana White a "pu$$y" for spreading that rumor.
This feud is reaching a boiling point and I hope both sides ante up and give the fans what they want to see.

I think he got rocked but didnt get knocked out. If Sean Gannon can knock him out i'd question his chin also. I wonder how Kimbo would do against someone who actually fights back.
-
He does need to cover more, but he is looking for the knockout all the time. This is what people like about him. I don't know if he'll change that or not.
-
dude obviosly u didnt watch that whole fight he got hit in places where anyone else would get knocked out multiple times and to last that long against a trained fighter while he was a street fighter is prety impressive if u ask me
-
I dont think you should question his chin. The reason he went down in that fight, was because of fatigue. Did you see the three or so punches he took earlier when he wasnt drained? He just stood there and shrugged it off. I think he will change his fighting style a little, not to where he wont look for the KO, but to make sure he isnt subject to a big punch. People have to give him some credit for taking on somebody who had trained MMA for a little while.

He does have a good chin, but he does need to learn to protect himself. He is fighting fighters now, not street garbage. I do want to see him move up this year and fight some bigger names. He is too old to slowly move up the ranks. He needs to try and make a big splash.

That's what the beard is for....to protect his chin!
-
it looks so thick it probably does reduce the damage

He could hide dangerous objects in it.

Great insight! I never thought of the shield as being your shield.
-
i 100% agree he was fighting nobody's b4 and now that he has real talent in front of him he has to make a big impact and quickly!!! if he doesn't he might find himself back on the street! he is a beast though i can't wait to see what he really got!!!
-
I guess the question is now this. How many fights does Kimbo have to win before Dana will give him a shot in teh UFC cause obviously they are buddies. Maybe they don't hate each other like Dana and Tito but what do you think?
-
Kimbo v. Lesnar would be creamworthy. Let's see how legit both of these guys are.
-
I did give it to Lesner, cause Kimbo isn't going to submit anyone
-
lesnar is a joke haha how many fights has he 1 win and a loss and he should of won that fight but messes around and lost
-
He is still a rookie. He made a rookie mistake. He will be a force in the heavyweight division. Just give it a little time. Like you said he only has 2 fights, but he is a great wrestler, and is very strong.
-
Kimbo might take it "in the butt"
-
I would bet a lot that almost every org went for Kimbo. But XC gave him the best offer.
-
kimbo will beat his ASS
-
really no one should question this mans chin every one who watche d the videos knows he can take a hit tank hit his a couple times anddidnt even rock him just watch the hits this man takes i do agree he needs 2 work his ground game some more but kimbo is a fighter no question about it
