Ken Shamrock vs Kimbo Slice

no, he's not ready for those guys, and likely never will be. he's too old. but with that said, i don't think that fight was indicative of his lack of skill or holes or whatever. Every guy to ever step into the octagon has been caught by a shot like that. 4 oz gloves will do that. they could fight 9 more times and kimbo could win every one. not WOULD win, but could.

fights like that are indicative of nothing. he got caught. big deal.

yea thats pretty true, he got caught end of. It happens but it does not always mean the fighter that got ko'ed could never beat the guy that ko'ed him. However the lost is not like Lesnars lost to Mir, that lost clearly showed Lesnars inexperience. Kimbo's lost showed his come forward attack that got him so popular needs to be improve. It isn't his lack of experience that got him ko'ed, it was what made him so popular that got him iced. Its interested what kimbo will do now, will he just continue to come forward and attack or will he really learn MMA. Just like how Brock Lesnar is really learning MMA.

I am leaning towards Brock, one who will have a longer and better MMA career. One of the Legends of MMA once said "you must evolve with the sport to last in it". I see Brock evolving more with the sport then KIMBO.
