I think submission is kind of pussy like and really doesn't work in the street. If someone arm bars me or any thing else I would crush there nutts to the point that having children would be out of the question . But I guess.......what ever he won. No holes barred I still think Brock buries him. Hell set up Slice with Randy Coture. Slice losses . Tank was a joke in UFC . The guy gets winded getting into the ring.

    The comparison with Joe Calzaghe is way off, I can only assume you don't take much of an interest in Boxing.

    As for Brock Lesnar he's an actor who got found out last time cos he has no power. As soon as Lesnar is hit on the chin it will shatter. Lesnars strength is on the floor and that's where he lost so god forbid what would happen if Kimbo hit him.

    As same for most mma glass jawers. I would pay to see a mma guy take 600 shots and not go down.

    I hope you don't really believe that boxers have such better jaws that prevent them from going down. It is truly a testament to the difference in gloves. Be realistic, boxers have the same physical makeup. The difference is the padding of the gloves.

    I know a few buddies in Akron who do mma. They trained for a few years. They trained less than a year before there first fight. Now boxers train as young as five. They train to do three things. To deliver a punch to take a punch and avoid a punch. So yes boxers do have better chins. They don't stand up strait when they punch and leave their chins to hang out and dry. The knock out is caused by inrushia in the skull. Gloves where invented to prevent the knuckles from breaking.

    First of all Gannon cheated, The rules for the smoker fights are hands only....Gannon got him in a chokle hold and would not let go....Kimbo was up a long time before he went out...So before you start getting smug with yourself speak facts....

    Second it was a long long time ago when that fight took place....Since you are soo smart take a look at Gannons MMA record, 0-1 he went into MMa based on that fight...look at the year he fought MMA as a pro....

    Slice is training with one of the greatest MMA fighters of all time Bas Rutton...I agree that Kimbos ground game is more then likely horrible at this stage and a decent MMA fighter with a half assed ground game would take him on the mat but present it in the right context...Don't use a video from that far back and the fact the guy cheated to make an arguement...That is just plain BS

    Yes a lot of people said it was supposed to be a bare-knuckles fight only. I don't know what all was said before the fight, but if that's the case, then yes, Gannon did cheat. Still, you've got to be pretty bad-ass to knock out Kimbo.

    Honestly, who us Tank? A bar fighter, fat and out of shape! I'd like to see Kimbo Slice fight Fujita, Mirko, Arloski, or even Gongo!

    It's been a while, but to the best of my recollection, the rules were "Stand up only, no kicking, no ground fighting." It was basically very poor and vague rules. Gannon heard no kicks, so he thought knees were okay (A big stretch) and stand up only, so why not standing guillotine, especially when the guy shoots on you.

    All that matters is that Gannon took everything Kimbo could throw back then and still dealt out more than Kimbo could handle. That being said, Kimbo is FAR from the same fighter he was back then.
    Boxing is like a handjob, and MMA is like a hot sweaty orgy with 5 chicks. I could never say no to a handjob, but which would you rather have?

    Yeah hopefully he's learned a lot more by now.

    Heavy,

    as new as kimbo is to the game, I actually think he's more talented than Sapp could ever dream of being. IMO, the only reason Sapp has lasted this long is because he is so brutally strong. I said this a long time ago... you can't get to where kimbo is without having spent some time in a real gym. The man has awesome power and is actually one of the more technically proficient stand-up fighters in mma already. you're right about Bas... in time Bas will make him awesome all around.
