I dont know if any of you guys were watching tonights Elite XC fights. During the middleweight fight that got stopped b/c of a finger in the eye, one of the commentators said that the fighter who won had a style like Floyd Mayweather. My jaw dropped when he said that dumb ass comment.
They also said something like: "This is MMA, not boxing. They're used to action from the beginning to the end." What ****ing morons.
I wont lie though. they had some females fighting. it was a pretty entertaining fight. i'll tell you what though. anyone who thinks that an MMA fighter has a chance in hell versus a boxer (with boxing rules) is crazy as hell. these guys dont know how to box for anything. i kept yelling at the tv "hit him to the body"
This is the first time I'm watching a MMA event live in over a year. I feel like one of those "casual boxing fans" who only watches DLH fights. :-( Kimbo is da reel deal~@~1`111`1 KO1 Tyson!~12`1111
Had to laugh watching a winded Kimbo try to talk about the fight. That damn ear popping was just the excuse the ref needed to save the hypejob's ass.
Thompson got hurt yes, but he also clinched evrytime he was hurt. give him a chance. You could tell that he wasn't going to get a break from the time the ref stood them up while Kimbo was takin an ass whoopin.
I will give this show one thing, Gina Carano was a hell of a fighter. Women's boxing could use that kind of hard-hitter now that Laila Ali is gone.
They've got Jim Lampley-like excitement with George Foreman-like analysis. A deadly cocktail for disaster.
he was taking it good on the floor and the camera went to the nose bleed section, WTF, any other fith would have been stopped when kimbo was not fighting back after all those elbows!!
