Ow,That will hurt the ol’ rep.
No way in hell that was a dive
watch the end of this video
it def caught him right on the chin and kimbo went down and coudlnt defend him self. it was a good punch to the chin that stunned and took down kimbo
Seth P. just became an overnight sensation. I’m glad he got such a break rather than Ken shamrock. Although I would have liked to see that fight, Ken has already had his time and everybody already knows him.
Now in the MMA, kimbo doesnt look like the same fighter he was before. Look in this Big D video. He is getting all fired up and giving free shots to the face. Its not even fazing him. But last night goes down after a little bop to the chin.
:word: I totally agree… it must have caught him just right, a combination of that and not expecting that little ass dude to come out swinging like his life depended on it
well, it probably did
i think that article is the best rendition of the entire situation written to date.
^^^ that’s why I posted

Fight was rigged . . . .
for Kimbo to win
"The promoters kind of hinted to me, and they gave me the money to stand and trade with him,” he told “The Monsters in Orlando” radio show. “They didn’t want me to take him down, let’s just put it that way. It was worth my while to try to stand up and punch with him.”
elite XC :ugh:
Kimbo :ugh:
Kimbo IS a monster, but an MMA fighter he is not.
That ‘fight’ was a perfect showing…
:gay2:
:lol:
Let’s face it. Some people are too blinded by who they WANT to lose, that they skip over how good the fighter might actually be.
BS fight, everyone thinks Petruzelli is god after a 13 second fight. Are you guys serious? :roflpicard:
Who was the croatian guy that came to UFC…MIRKO CROCOP! That’s him, can’t believe I forgot his name. Look up some of his fights in other circuits, he is an AMAZING fighter. Once he came to UFC, he had to get used to the techniques allowed in UFC and different fighting style, and got knocked out in one of his first matches (VERY disappointing). I’d still bet money that Crocop would win any fight that he was put in though.
What exactly is your point? Nobody is saying that Petruzelli is god. We’re just saying that Kimbo isn’t
Are you seriously comparing Kimbo “THE YOUTUBE SENSATION” SLICE to Mirko “Cro-Cop” Filipovic?
Mirko is proof that every amazing fighter is still just human. In the year’s notice that the ufc fighters has prior to Mirko making his appearance, guess what they were training directly for? To beat Mirko.
Petruzelli didn’t train specifically to fight Kimbo. He showed up that day because the tomato can got an ouchy and couldn’t fight. Petruzelli didn’t fight for a year before this, and still made a fool of Kimbo.
And I’d still bet money that Kimbo would be destroyed in any fight against a real MMA fighter that he was put in.
Mirko compared to Kimbo… :roflpicard:
Try again.
if you seriously were making an attempt to compare mirko w/ kimbo…
holy shit.
hahaha you fucker
hahaha you fucker
You asshole, lol!
And desert you.
But seriously, that was a weak knockout… It may be controversial, but if there is a good rumor that the fight was set up, I would not be surprised it is true
Should be interesting to see if / how he progresses.
I still say he has the strength & the speed, just wholly lacking technique.
His ego is hurt, he is probably gonna go for broke on that show.
