Not sure Mercer could still get a boxing licence though.
Someone mentioned Evander but IMO that would be risking Kimbo's life. Evander may be an old guy but he's in shape and is a true legend. He would cause serious damage to Kimbo.
Here's something else Gary Shaw says, "Om nom nom nom nom, lies, nom nom."
Its pretty sad when guys who can't cut it in MMA are coming over to boxing.
Like said previously, Kimbo is a big guy who can throw big punches, but he's relatively old, has stamina issues and has NO chin. Watch his fight with Seth Petruzelli. Seth is a 205lb guy, who knocked Kimbo out with a jab while he had one foot in the air.
I can see the headlines next month BTW...
DAVID HAYE AGREES TO FIGHT KIMBO SLICE
I doubt Haye would fight his own brother lol.Quote:

Boxing is a big tent, there's no limit to who gets fights providing you pass a physical (in most places). UFC is very exclusive, they do try and take the "best of the best" but they've had their trouble trying to grow the sport in certain weight classes and with certain fighters that are difficult to make contracts with.Quote:

Even if he cut to cruiserweight he'd have trouble vs their top level guys.
Look at it this way....who do you have in a Kimbo Slice-Brian Minto fight?
Kimbo wouldn't go 2 rounds with Minto IMOQuote:

I mean who here would pick Kimbo to beat Cliff Couser ?
I sure wouldn't.
...now that you mention it I do begin to question my previous statement...but hell there are so many titles, I figured he could at least pick one offQuote:
