Re: Does Kimbo Have What It Takes To Be In The Ufc?
From what I've read, he won't fight in the final of the Ultimate Fighters against one of the others finalists but he'll have a side fight with Houston Alexander in the same final on december 5. I guess it means that Matt Mitrione (Miss brain swelling) was just bullshitting all time long and will still go to the fight.

Re: Does Kimbo Have What It Takes To Be In The Ufc?
The thing with Kimbo is: He drags a lot of audience. Especially peoples who aren't expert in MMA. The guy has a good charisma and has been marketed intelligently in the beginning. And to top it all, he's a very nice guy and a hard worker. For the UFC, the guy is a lot of attraction on the sport at the moment so that's why they would like to make him fit somewhere. That could explain why he had a side fight for the ultimate season 10 contender and not participate in the final: he lost therefore he can't have the contract but that doesn't stop the UFC from getting him a fightspot on the side.i had a feeling the show wus fixed

Re: Does Kimbo Have What It Takes To Be In The Ufc?
Kimbo is a great guy that comes with a good marketing base and exciting style but he simply has no ground game. If ,and its a big "if", he can get by Houston the UFC can feed him some hand picked scrubs to make him some money and sell tickets but the end state is that once he makes a move up from B- fighters he has very little future in MMA.

We will find out tonight after he fights Houston Alexander who hits like a mule but gasses quickly. If he loses then kiss Kimbo goodbye but if he wins then he extends his 15mins a little longer.

Re: Does Kimbo Have What It Takes To Be In The Ufc?
well he has proven to at least have the heart to give it his all...the ground game has improved greatly and he is always dangerous standing....
P4P in the MMA leagues no but interesting and entertaining enougfh to make a go at it.....
He did well and beat a true MMA fighter who is dangerous in Alexander..(Who I thought would KO Kimbo but was surprised)
I missed me, so Im back!

Re: Does Kimbo Have What It Takes To Be In The Ufc?
When you think he really has a degenerative knee problem. It goes to show you he has enormous core strength to pick up and throw Alexander around like he did. I think with a few people who are real smart behind him who can shape his game to suit his own weakness and his strengths;then he could make it quite far. On his own,or with just meat heads behind him he will run into faster leg kickers and faster movers all day long with no answers and it'll cut his career short.
