Ken Shamrock vs Kimbo SLice

[Forrest]

who do you think is going to win? (and how?)

[Ivan]

i dont like either of em. i hope they punch each other out at the same time.

I'm almost positive that Shamrock will win. Maybe I'm crazy but I don't see what's so great about Slice. He's strong, he's big, and he can throw a mean blow. I think Ken will be able to hold his own while they're standing. I haven't seen anything great about Kimbo's groundwork. As soon as Ken takes him to the ground it'll be fight over. Then again, maybe I'll be surprised. Slice has some serious brute strength to him.

[Seth]

I'm guessing Shamrock by submission...

[Forrest]

yeah, i'm thinking Ken has to take him down... i also think if Ken lets his ego get in the way and tries to stand up and strike with him, he could get tagged.

Kimbo won't stand a chance with Ken on the ground though, and that's where he's got to take it from the get go.

[Rattlebone]

I'm sure Ken will press the issue for a quick takedown and submission. Seniors nite at the buffet ends at 8pm ya know.

[Forrest]

that brings up another issue..

at what point should someone like Ken Shamrock hang it up? some of these athletes don't know when to quit and end up taking a pounding that results in serious repercussions (i.e. Ali etc).

like him or not, Ken has done a LOT for the sport, he is still in great condition etc, but he can't possibly be at his best (because of his age). even not being at his best, he can still beat some of the top fighters in the world, but i doubt he'll ever be going for a title shot again.

Ken should have retired the FIRST TIME TITO beat his ass at UFC 40 he has one win since then in 7 fights.........that makes a pretty strong statement that your done !!

[JBNTX]

I think Shamrock might pull this out of his ass with a Knee Bar or Heel Hook. Kimbo is very unbalanced when it comes to MMA. If your not an out of shape has been...........(Look out Shammy) then Kimbo would not stand a chance. They are having this guy fight LEGENDS of the sport THAT ARE WAY WAY past their PRIME (Tank Abbott and Ken) really sad that HE is the Elite XC poster child .......there is so much more talent in that organization that are true mixed martial artisit. Kimbo is a wanna be thug, who is riding alot of BS HYPE and internet knock out fame. He is a disgrace to MMA and Gary Shaw should be ashamed of promoting him and making money off this flash in the pan. In 10 years everyone will still know who fighter like Randy Couture, Chuck Liddell, Mark Coleman, Bas Rutten, Urijah Faber etc are. Ask around about Kimbo in 10 years. It will be like asking about Vanilla Ice.........Ice ICE BABY !!!! He will be remebered as a JOKE !!There is not enough money in the world to espire to be that.......maybe thats just me and I have a little something called PRIDE. To each his own. I guess being a joke is not far away from being a internet PORN company, which is what Kimbo wears on his fight shorts......Reality Kings.......PORN Kings in my opinion = ass clowns.....I'm just saying. Mark my words in 10 years Kimbo will be the next Robbie Vanwinkle !! WORD TO YOUR MOTHA..........

LOLOLOL love it!

Couldn't have said it better myself. Period.

[MatthewX]

I know all hardcore MMA fans know Kimbo is not main event talent. How can we blame him though? It isn't his fault people watched his you tube shit and liked him. He is living the American dream... 15 seconds of fame and few million dollars. Elite can't protect him forever. Soon, America is going to want to see him with a belt. I believe that will be the end of Kimbo as main event material. Bas will probably still try to push him, but I think he will be gone after a couple loses against average talent. Off topic a little... check out the Aleksander Emelianenko v James Thompson fight. Then remember the Kimbo v Thompson.

[JBNTX]

Well said Matt...............Tompson is a can. I have seen guys at my local gym that could wipe Thompsons ass without breaking a sweat.

[MatthewX]

I didn't think Kimbo would go down this soon. I honestly thought Kimbo would beat Seth, but I guess he's much worse than I thought. Come to think of it... Take a look back at your own MMA career, how good were you at 1 year of training. That is where Kimbo is now. I didn't win my first wrestling tournament until I was in 5th grade (I started in 1st).

[smirnhoff]

11 seconds to a guy from the under card. Elite XC is finished.

[JBNTX]

As Matt X said you cant blame Kimbo for riding the wave of success he has had. Hell he made $500000 and got his ass kicked. That was just his fight purse. Add up his sponsors and appearance fees and the dude is pulling down TOP LEVEL fighter cash. HE BETTER SAVE his money though !! He has been exposed for what he really is a Tuna swimming with a school of sharks. Elite XC has put all their eggs in the wrong basket and now it is falling apart.

I'd really like to see Elite XC change their attitude a little bit and I think a lot of viewers agree. I personally would like to see them lose the WWE feeling because I think it's only hurting MMA
