Bas is bringing him along like a young prospect fighter...building his confidence slowly til he is sure Slice is ready for a real opponent...building his confidence...Lets just hope it is not the pace Duva has been bringing Mike Marrone
Well Duva is like Marrone's dad. Marrone DOESN'T have the goods to be a top fighter. He's skilled and a solid guy but he's getting ko'd when he goes against a heavy hitter. Duva doesn't want to see that. Keep him on FNF against guys who get 4days to train and aren't big punchers so Marrone can keep his undefeated record.

I think traditionally MMA is much more competetive when building a fighter. Boxing a guy has to be undefeated so they put him in with pillows for 30 fights before he faces a challenge. Don't think Kimbo or any mma guy getting groomed is getting off that easy.
