Sure, the ending looked suspect. Even the post fight interview with Green looks suspect. I've never seen a guy look that comfortable with losing at the last second after dominating almost all of the previous action. I definitely don't believe Green weighed 223 lbs, which could suggest that some of the commission was in on it. Especially since the fight had 2 signals that normally indicate 10 seconds to go, spaced over 20 seconds apart. Almost as if to say," IT'S TIME TO THROW THE COMBO...!" There are also things about this fight that make it look legitimate. For this to be a worked contest, Green took a lot of chances going upside Kimbo's head. Would you chance waiting for the waning seconds of the last round to throw a combo? I know it increases the drama, but 3 seconds? It would be very easy to **** that up. The knock out blow also landed with the head in a very compromised position. Green's chin was up with the back of his head touching his neck. Most knockouts occur from damage to the base of the brain. A hard push, never mind a punch, could possibly hurt the base of the brain from that angle. Here is a look at more of the fight, and Green's post fight interview. I'm not telling you it wasn't a fix, but unless someone confesses, they will get away with it if all there is to go on is this footage. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bOsq06IbC14[/ame]
WOW.....Kimbos promoters could of atleast sent green to some acting classes before this farce...This is a disgrace..
As if Kimbo fighting a guy making his debut wasn't bad enough. He looked terrible doing it, and had about 20 to 25 pounds weight advantage over the guy. Based on that performance, there's absolutely zero future in boxing for Kimbo.
I'd say that Kimbo had at least 40 lbs on Green. Green clearly hurt Kimbo multiple times and was trying to knock him out, no doubt about it. I don't know what to make of it. Looks like they agree'd to have a legit fight but if both guy's were still standing after the clapper went in the last round, Green would take a dive.
Did kimbo even train he looked like ****! Oh yeah kimbo fixing a boxing bout can't imagine that! He learnt you can't fix ufc
Good question. He did look like ****, and there were no positive signs whatsoever that he'll succeed in boxing.
The heavyweight division in boxing is currently in shambles. That said, Kimbo showed nothing to indicate that he's a threat to any top-twenty guy around now. He is slow, labored, his power is not as fearsome as advertised. He would get raped by the 90's version of Butterbean the way he looked here. Even the moribund, cracked-out 'Hurricane' Peter McNeeley might of had a chance here. Well, maybe not.
He really has done well for himself in the $ department based on a few shitty youtube clips and well picked opponents.
Kimbo fought a guy who'd never had a pro boxing match in his life. Was made to look very ordinary. Trailed until a suspect last minute KO, and you came to the conclusion below. Can you please explain how?
Corner man calls out "Eight seconds Brian"... Brian puts hands down, chin up, falls over Not suspect at all... :roll:
