Kimbo Slice, MMA, The Ultimate Fighter -- South Florida Sun-Sentinel.com

So how will he do?

I hope he doesn't disappoint me this time.

"The Ultimate Fighters sign undisclosed contracts and make about $5,000 per fight. It's believed Slice and local agent Mike (Icey Mike) Imber worked out a different deal since he is the highest profile athlete to appear on the show."

First they say he is humble for starting from the beginning. Then they say this and contradict everything. If he was humble he would take what everyone else is getting and work his way up the ladder. If he does it will be for the pay day and he will lose his first or second fight. No doubt.

Serouisly, I disagree.
Maybe not this generation but there were a lot of people who were fans of Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig. Yogi and Mantle.

I'm a Met fan but the Yankee history is a rich one.

Eh. I think its an alright idea, but I dont think he should be paid anymore than the other fighters. I actually hope this starts some drama in the house.

He won fights in the backyard. Ill bet that some of the other fighters have some backyard fights of their own. What makes them different? Cuz Kimbo was on YouTube? Any other reason?

Cause Kimbo hit people so hard, their eyes popped out of their socket. And that shit was on video.

Actually, I was discussing this on a fight forum and I mentioned that most of the fights on these shows suck. And they do.

Some are good though, but the majority are lousy.

Kimbo is too old to be fighting. He doesn't have the lungs or the hunger. He'll get knocked out.

Posted by: AKIRA

Probably sooner rather than later, yeah. But who knows.

Hah. Yeah, I really should have said 'some of those young guys'.

Did you bet money on his last fight?

Posted by: min0 lee

No, but all that hoopla about him and then the way he loses.

Even if your a hater of the KIMBO and/or never really watched TUF I'd make more of an effort to turn the tube on to see him hopefully lose myself.
