Decent fight,Thompson fought in PRIDE f ew times,he's strong but very very chinny. Kimbo should KO him but we could see Kimbo's beard tested too.

James Thompson mate. He's a Uk fighter.
Big fella with no chin. he did pound out an aged Don 'magnum PI' Frye though.
Be interesting to see it
I can't wait. Usually the day after the fight, you'll find it on Youtube, so I'll watch it then. :)
Thinking about this. What i will say is thompson is afraid of no one, he's got fuck all chin but can thrown some serious bombs and is a big fella.
Thompson is an experienced fighter. He is no Mercer, Cantrell (disgrace) or abbott.
I'm actually looking forward to this one.
Kimbo is like Gatti and Butter bean were to boxing . They just are really good at bringing in fans.
I think because of his background we are all a little too critical of Kimbo.
I guess he should be allowed to develop like any young fighter
yeah, all Gatti fought were 4 rounders. :rolleyes:
kimbo is probably the most over-rated and most under-rated fighter alive right now. Personally I think he could step into the UFC and be a top 10 in very sot time. If you can't take him down (which is surely easier said than done cuz he's so flipping strong, AND has two heavy hands that make you re-think the whole shooting in thing) then you're in a world of hurt. His stand-up is already as good as most in mma. The guy can throw em, and he's no swing-for-the-fence scrub like most mma fighters. They are hard, short and accurate.
Oh, you hit the nail on the head there. :cool:Quote:

The Thompson fight will be a slaughter, he won't make it out of the first minute let alone the first round.
The only thing Thompson brings to the table is an hilarious staredown
Kimbo slice is the man with da knock out plan, guarnteed victory for Slice
I like the avatar. :cool:Quote:

Why cant they do a Kimbo Lesnar fight. Put him up with a tougher guy. A extremely powerful human. Or a Kimbo Silva fight. If he is as great and unbelievable fighter they would stop putting him up agianst clowns like a 46 year old boxer and a mean guy with a glass jaw. Step it up . Put him in agianst a real fighter.
Not that busy of a furom.
As I alluded to before, we're not making allowances for Kimbo, he's being brought along the same as any other fighter, we shouldn't expect any more of him just because he's of higher profile than his class.Quote:
