Watch the Forrest Griffin vs. Stephen Bonner fight. That is one of the best fights.

Their first fight. It’s considered “one of the best fights” in UFC history.

I lost a lot of respect for Kimbo for his post fight interview. He didn’t seem upset at all and still invited everyone to celebrate at his after party. WTF?! Jackass. You just lost in 30 seconds… at least look a little bit upset.

I dont think he cared, look at the way he just took the punches, you really think that first one would knock him down, then he would just look at the guy as he pounded Kimbos face in? I say he wanted nothing to do with this fight and lost on purpose

thats crazy talk. No professional would ever lose on purpose. What does losing do for him? Especially losing in such embarrassing fashion? Nothing!

He got hit right on the button and got stiff. There is no question that Kimbo can take a punch, but he got tagged on his perfect spot and went to the ground. Shit happens. I def do not think he threw the fight.

you dont have to, i said thats what I tought. No way that punched knocked him down, the guy had no weight into it at all. That Gannon guy and Kimbo fought and hit each other in the head for about 20 minutes straight. Im not buying it. Kimbo is hardly a professional, he was put into that role to make some dough.He doesnt have the mindset or the discipline of a proffessional. From all the interviews before the fight and the way he walked to the ring he looked like he did not care or want any part of this fight.

he always talks like that and he always will. It’s who he is and it’s just another reason why people like him. It’ll never change. Just cause he looked like he didn’t wanna be a part of the fight doesn’t mean he dove. I 100% think he got tagged perfectly (with a weak ass punch) and went down. Game over. Shit happens. He’ll bounce back.

…IMO of course.

He was being hyped up to be a “Professional” though. If he did infact want to lose on purpose, it was obviously a bad move on his part. It hurt his pontential career in the sport that he could have had and his bad ass reputation he came off with. You’ll probably never see him showcase another main event again.
