Kampman looked out on his feet i thought the ref was right to step in it would only have got worse. that fight was my shock of the night

AKIRA · 09-21-2009, 06:32 AM

Ive never agreed with stoppages with a fighter standing. Kamp was pissed about it afterward, which sealed the deal of disapproval for me.

Cant someone have a fucking chin nowadays?

inteligent defence

AKIRA · 09-22-2009, 09:20 AM

Bah. Cabbage has zero defense, yet the fights go on longer cuz everyone knows he has a chin. There is really no way to discover that unless at least they go down.

Even in boxing when theyd call a tko when the fighters were standing its ridiculous to me. Not the defender's fault the attacker has NO KO power.

still kampman looked out on his feet his hand we re barely up. the ref just stopped the inevitable

Richie1888 · 09-23-2009, 04:19 AM

on second thought maybe ur right but im undecided i think the ref did the right thing. if in doubt and all that

question now is who do u take between him and swick ?

i was shocked at this dont know if anyone else saw it

Quinton “Rampage” Jackson Retires : Five Ounces of Pain

**IainDaniel** · 09-23-2009, 07:49 AM

I don't think he retired... Just quit the UFC

five ounces says he retired and so did his statement i think

AKIRA · 09-24-2009, 08:19 AM

Im not gonna get too washed up on this. I believe hell be back. However if he doesnt, I cant say Ill miss the fun. I mean, I think he did the best among the PRIDE fighters, but he mostly boxed while he was there. No slams. However he is my favorite fighter beside GSP.

That being said, its a little difficult to watch TUF now.

**Dale Mabry** · 09-24-2009, 10:47 AM

Did you guys watch TUF? I missed last nights episode but saw the premiere. It is hard to root against Kimbo, he seems to be a pretty good team player from the previews of what's to come.

AKIRA · 09-24-2009, 12:53 PM

I saw it and they set up a fight with him against Roy Nelson for next week.

**Dale Mabry** · 09-24-2009, 04:51 PM

Awesome, I hope he beats that tubby bitch, but I doubt it. Rampage is hilarious this year, did you see when they were picking teams and it was his first pick, he went, "Ti..., Kimbo Slice! Haha, Titties thought I was gonna pick him first." Sucks possibly losing him, would have loved to see that Rashad fight.

Richie1888 · 10-01-2009, 09:49 AM

no one see kimbos fight. had no clue what to do when it hit the deck

dana seems to be playing down the win looks like kimbo will definately fight on a ufc card

yeksetm · 10-01-2009, 12:46 PM

Im Australia and we've only had the 1st two episodes and from the looks of it none of those big fuckers have any cardio! I felt embarrased watching that 6'7 dude fight. He got the guy down and then snoozed on top of him. i reckon Kimbo looks the fittest out of the lot. Sunday night episode 3 and im looking forward to seeing some gold teeth scattered around the floor. My 2cents!

AKIRA · 10-01-2009, 01:29 PM

Kimbo's fight is yet another reason why I hate most TKOs.

david100proof · 10-01-2009, 03:58 PM

Kimbo is such a big losser send him back to the streets

TrojanMan60563 · 10-01-2009, 07:40 PM

Kimbo is a street fighter...doesn't belong in UFC...said it from the start...still feel strongly he will never hack it. Kimbo is large, strong, and youtube fights wanna be tough guy gang bangers for money... put him up against a real fighter and he looks like nothing more then a big pussy.

I have more of a respect for Kimbo after watching him on TUF. He seems down to earth and eager to learn. Yes he is a street fighter but a lot of UFC figters were street fighters. He didn't look horrible against Roy Nelson but he def needs to work on his Jiu Jitsu and wrestling. He's getting up there in age but I think if he keeps training he could def be a good cage fighter.

Finally watched the Kimbo fight on UF10 and man he sucked. I knew his ground game was lacking but i didn't think it was that poor. He should go away and just concentrate on his wrestling/ JJ. His stand up is pretty good, keeps his head tucked and his hands high. But as stated in a previous post his age is a massive factor and I think his UFC window is almost closed. Dana White might let him fight for marketing reasons!

TrojanMan60563 · 10-02-2009, 08:22 PM

I am not saying Kimbo can't improve. I am saying he has so much to improve on that he isn't likely going to hack it in the UFC. He can be the king of youtube street fights against wanna be hard ass thugs, but he is no where near the fighter he needs to be in order to have a prayer in UFC.

This isn't a stab at him...its just the facts.

CORUM · 10-06-2009, 05:36 PM

anyone who thought kimbo had a chance in the UFC was blind, deaf, dumb, and needs to find a new sport!!! i remember everyone hyping him up, this fat ass idiot was saying he can beat any of your UFC pussies!!! DAMN FATASS where'd ya go???? i really hate that kid that thinks he knows everything!!!

Everyone? I don't think anyone on here was saying anything of the sort.

AKIRA · 10-06-2009, 06:59 PM

I put some thought into this..

Kimbo is a lot nicer than I thought he was, regardless of his look. In any case, I dont see him going to improve really. I mean, when will he? Hes kind of old. Not to mention, throughout his quest for such knowledge, well get sick of him losing. Its kind of predictable now. Hes got a puncher's chance, but so do most fighters.

I think he should try out for boxing.

TrojanMan60563 · 10-06-2009, 08:00 PM

Aside from looking like a troll Kimbo for sure seems nice and more real then I originally thought.

The whole Kimbo getting a second shot on the show is a joke and a half. I think he is a strong striker, but will most likely never be a UFC top fighter.

I am going to agree he would probably do MUCH MUCH better trying to fight pro in boxing. He has the power but his chin is still in question for me since a baby jab knocked him down.

houston vs kimbo has the potential to be a good fight

There you go. There are some really good fighters in the UFC that have great stand up but little to no ground game. Stick him in there with some of those guys. With Kimbo, it's always entertaining.

AKIRA · 10-14-2009, 06:49 PM

Another fighter you could say that doesnt belong is Clay Guida. Hes a brawler, but hes fun to watch every time. But..well, hell never be a champ.

Yes but he is a big stepping stone for the welter weights. Kinda like a Keith Jardine for the LH's. Clay always puts on a great show.

Shogun got fucked .... what a bullshit set of judges... what fight were they watching?
