Listen, I have MMA training in my background and as I look at this fight I see 100000 things wrong with his opponents approach.... Now fear is the biggest thing with these guys... Kimbo does a few things good... He has a good stance, great head movement, controlled agression and is very coordinated and fluid despite his muscular upperbody (which in a streetfight leaves an impression and gives a pyscological edge over his opponents) If he went up against someone remotely around his weight that equals his skill than it would be a good even fight.... The Gannon fight was sloppy, Gannon only won because he was able absorbed and overwhelming amount of punishment and Kimbo got gassed from teeing off on him... Gannons face was shredded to bits... I saw Gannon fight live at a UFC event and believe me when I tell he got his ass whooped by a guy have his size....
Kimbo might have a future in the pro's whether its MMA or Boxing.. he appears to be athletic for a big man at 268 but his age is a factor, but he has along way to prove if he is legit and not just some 2nd rate felony fighter... Regardless if this fight comes off there will be a Fukload of publicity
This is a publicity stunt. No way will Kimbo get in the ring with Mercer. I actually just hit Kimbo up to take his $10K challenge. I haven't heard back. No way his people let him get anyone near anyone close to his size that knows what they're doing.
Hey guys i know that kimbo is a loser and ray will kick his ass but hey is this thing going to be on TV or PPV I have been reading on this and it doesnt say if it's going to be on TV do any of you know it is?
i cant imagine that the promotion would miss out on airing this on ppv, im sure it will be on the internet about 17 minutes after its over thoOriginally Posted by Klitschkofn4lfe
You got a point about being a villian. Kimbo is one scary looking dude. He probably wins a few just on intimidation cause he's got hair everywhere but his damn head. He's at least as intimidating as Dbo from the Friday movies.
As far as who's gonna win against Mercer? Well Kimbo SEEMS to have a good chin and good power. Mercer definitely does so it should be entertaining.
Kimbo
Bigger
Stronger
Younger
used to getting hit with bare fists
Mercer...
Skill
Power
chin
experience
I wouldn't pay $50 bucks for it on ppv, but I want to see it.

He could be stronger, but that's hardly finite, and he definetly doesn't hit as hard as you acknowledge... And as far as Kimbo being used to getting hit bare knuckle, as an advantage, it just doesn't hold water imo....Mercer has notoriously had a granite jaw, and tasted punches(even with gloves) that Kimbo could only have nightmares about getting hit with.. I think your underestimating the fact that Kimbo fights complete bums, he hasn't tasted real power, and when he arguably did, he was KTFO against Gannon. Mercer should take this easy imo, all he has to do is want it.
the one major advantage i think kimbo has tis that he is used to defending bareknuckle, which should make him more comfortable with the mma gloves then mercer who used far bigger gloves even in K1
Yeah, I for sure want to see this fight now, after watching three Kimbo fight videos. Anyone seen his fight against "Adryan", this buff white dude, weighed bout 240. Which I think was a little inflated, he looked like maybe 220. Anyway, that dude went right after Kimbo flailing away, then closed his eyes and flailed, then turned his back and got hammered. It was pretty entertaining. If these two fight, I don't expect Ray Mercer to flail, close his eyes, or turn his back.
"You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"
I can already hear Mercer's bones cracking and his blood flowing
I don't think Kimbo has a good chin I think he has a big beard!!!
The majority of the guys Kimbo fights throw their punches scared and that has an effect!
Kimbo is a punk, I would love to see him knocked the fuck out
That guy Adryan could not punch correctly . The way he placed his shots were laughable and they werent landing with any power behind them, , however that was enough to force Kimbo back . He came forward and if he can put Kimbo on the backfoot . Logic dictates that once Ray gets Kimbo backing up , it will be a short fight .Originally Posted by Hulk
Adryan got hurt began backing off then turned his back . Kimbo quite rightly hit him in the head whilst his back was turned and the guy was convulsing for quite a while. Afew seconds earlier he was cracking his knuckles to the camera sucking his belly in as he walked through the gate . Kimbos opponents are getting worse though . His first backyard fight was good when he let that built guy take free shots at his chin then the guy made some excuse he was slipping and quit . That was good cuz we saw the damage Kimbo can inflict , but then he takes on guys like afro puff and you can see they dont wana fight . Theyre just waiting for the 1st punch so they can crumble and quit . We saw Kimbo get owned by Gannon and now even fat bouncers are flooring him . He stands no chance against Ray
Thats all true. The Adryan guy didn't know how to throw punches, but I think he showed more balls than any of the other guys I've seen Kimbo fight (I haven't seen the Gannon fight). The Bouncer was huge, landed one good jab and got scared after bein hit a few times. The Rasta fight I just got through watching, the one in the boat dealership parking lot, he took one good uppercut and got KTFO. Big D, the guy in the first backyard fight, he got discouraged after Kimbo let him hit him in the face a couple of times, after that he got his eye seriously fuked up, and started making excuses. So overall of those guys I think Adryan showed the most balls. Still none of those guys really know how to throw punches at all, and a couple of em weren't even really fighters. I find it hard to believe some of these guys have backers who put up 10,000 on them to win against Kimbo. What a waste of money, most have no chance.Originally Posted by GAME

I am not saying that Kimbo will win. I definitely think Mercer has every real advantage other than those physical aspects I listed. We haven't seen Mercer do well for a long time though and this is MMA rules. And Kimbo didn't get ktfo against Gannon. He was so exhausted he couldn't fight anymore. Gannon kicked his ass but not from a punch that floored him. It was total exhaustion. Anyways I would still watch it. Anyone the size of Kimbo has a chance of landing a big shot. And we know Mercer can give and take.Originally Posted by p4pking
Any decent boxer with experience and skill would deal with Kimbo easily. Kimbo has built his image on the net fighting people who don't even know how to fight (perhaps Gannon can be excluded from that statement). If a guy walked into a boxing gym and said "Hey dude I've had a few street fights and been in jail and i look scary so i want to fight Ray Mercer" what do you think most trainers would say? And i doubt Kimbo could fight in any comp that drug tests.
