    Billy Conn would win a decision. He wasn't a big puncher even for 160 pound standards. Tommy Hearns took his power up to light heavyweight. Tommy Hearns knocks out Kimbo Slice because Kimbo had no talent at all.

    It was actually a Japanese kitchen appliance that was sold by infomercial and could be yours with just three easy payments of $19.95. (They threw in a nogg separator absolutely free of charge, which was great for the holidays.)

    (I'd have gotten one, but although the price was right the payments were much more difficult than advertised.)

    I think the real question is how long could Kimbo Slice last against Butterbean?

    I'd say two rounds, tops. Butterbean was actually pretty dangerous; to guys with limited skills, very dangerous.

    I saw Kimbo actually take quite a beating in some of his street fights. The dude is pretty damn tough I'll give him that much. It might take even Hearns a bit to wipe him out.

    Look at the fellas he was fighting, neighbourhood hard men though, that's white collar stuff..He was tough I agree, but Hearns right hand ??? Really ?? Just so I don't come across as a hater, I liked Kimbo, you could blatantly see he was a good hearted geeza and it was sad him passing so young

    Actually it's a shame they never fought. I bet it would have been a PPV extravaganza...seriously.

    Man, I don't know anymore. Slice took a huge amount of punishment before he went down ... but the guy hitting him looked like a penniless man's version of Butterbean. Hearns' punches are whip-fast and explosive. On the other hand Hearns is also a much smaller guy than Slice. On the other, other hand Kimbo has zero defence. Maybe Hearns would take him out real early. I'm not sure.

    Is Kimbo vs Bean boxing or MMA?
