I figure this could be a good fight for Kimbo if he can get a few more wins under his belt.
Granted McCall would probably beat him half to death, but it would show a lot of guts if Slice took on a guy like Oliver.
I would be AMAZED if Kimbo could get past 2 rounds with McCall let alone beat him.
How about you guys ?
Might be a good marketing ploy for Grandpa McCall at least to get on TV but really its a massive mismatch I think. Kimbo would be better suited to call out a Tye Fields maybe...you could have it in a huge circus tent with boxing bears featured in the co feature, free popcorn for the kiddies.
Good idea. hahaQuote:

I like the sound of this matchup, McCall would kill him and that I would pay to see. Also I read Shannon Briggs doesn't want to finish his career on a loss so a Kimbo vs Briggs fight would also be worth a watch IMO. I don't think either fight gets out of the first unless the BOXER wants it to that is.
People are getting a little too excited over that pathetic win. Kimbo the clown looked like a robot the way he was moving. You wont tell anything about him as a boxer until he has completed at least a full round. Even Tye Fields would beat him! They are going to milk his popularity and keep giving him a line of bums to knock over and when they do move him up itll all be over!Quote:

Extremely bad idea imo. Kimbo has zero chance of knocikng McCall out and Kimbo has the stamina of a 60 year old.
Bad move for Kimbo; McCall would eat his best shots and knock him out in six. I think Botha would be a better match up.
I'd put money on Marion Wilson and Demetrice King to beat Kimbo much less McCall.
How about Haye ? ;DQuote:

I dont even know if he has a decent punch. All he did in his debut was what any heavyweight would have. Knocked out a cruiser who was knocked out by a cruiser in his only other contest;DQuote:

Take a look at that shitty backyard fight between him and some bloke called Adryan. That bloke took a lot of shots of Kimbo before even thinking of covering up. I dont think hes that big a puncher. Hes game but any of the names already mentioned would piss all over him. I think he will struggle with stamina big time!
Very few people if any have a "puncher's chance" vs Wilson or King. I think King may have been stopped once and Wilson never (I'm guessing that still stands) and they've fought plenty of up and coming top tier fighters who were far more skilled than Kimbo.Quote:

I really think and only half joking, Kid thunder will have completed more rounds when it's all said and done ;D
Yea but ya still skirting around my original question... Haye, dont think he would beat him personally, probably be a tough fight while it lasted tho........Quote:

i tell u what, McCall may be older, but he is a beast. the man hits HARD!!!
kimbo doesnt have a chance.
I saw kimbo get hit by a right from a guy with his left leg in the air, and the guy he kod in 17 seconds, Mark Gastineau could've beaten in 12.
That guy took a dive and I'm pretty sure that I could beat him in a boxing match.
