    2 side show sensations who packed serious power but lacked the finesse and stamina to truly become elite in the world of boxing. They instead became big hits as tomato can crushers, mma fighters, and wrestlers but they had their roots in boxing and punching styles.

    How would a fight between them go? Neither had great stamina so let's make it a 4 rounder. 8 oz gloves.

    Limbo 6'2 234 lbs 77' reach
    Butterbean 5'11 376 lbs 78' reach

    Kimbo would get destroyed in a boxing match. He'd need it to be bareknickle to have any chance at all.

    This fight has kept up even the finest minds awake in the twilight hours of fantasy boxing this is the only fight no one is truly sure of, between these two ATG’s it could be a master class boxing match, a war? or even a glorified sparring match depending on who shows up.

    Kimbo would take an MMA fight.

    Butterbean smashes him with or without gloves in a boxing match.

    You should have made this prime Floyd Patterson vs Butterbean: Could Patterson overcome the size difference???

    I think Butterbean is better than guys give him credit for, but Patterson lights him up like a torch.

    In a boxing or MMA bout Butterbean destroys him Kimbo had no chin and legs were already shot by the time he started doing MMA.

    Butterbean wrecks Kimbo in Boxing, Mma or kickboxing,

    Bean went 77-10 and 4 in Boxing and at one time went on a 51 fight streak without a loss,

    bean went 3-4 in kickboxing

    bean went 17 - 10 in MMA

    that’s 125 professional fights

    Kimbo went 7-0 as a boxer
    5 -2 -1 as an MMA fighter and 1-1 in exhibitions, add that to a handful of Backyard BKB and just based on experience level its not even remotely close,
    My theory is...Slice probably couldn’t hurt Bean as easily as bean could hurt Slice, I take Bean by KO no matter what Discipline they choose for the contest.
