    Frye was old as the hills and gassed after a few minutes. It took James at least 2 minutes of near punching himself out to get the stoppage and he too was entirely spent.The victory was hollow and meant nothing. A prime Don Frye would eat Jame alive and James knows it. Dam shame as Thompsons such a nice kid.

    I hope Thompson wins but I doubt he will. Looking forward to the Lawler vs Smith and Baroni vs Villasenor fights. I think Lawler will win his fight but not so sure about the other fight but I think Villasenor might take it. The longer this fight goes the more it will favour Villasenor as we all know Baroni gasses.

    Prime Frye was only really successful in a bygone age now anyway. The sport has evolved way beyond guys like him.

    I have nothing against Kimbo, I just don't see any evidence he'll be anything more than a poor man's Bob Sapp.

    Frye used to kick some serious butt in the era right after they learned to defend against Jiu Jitsu stuff...

    Prime Frye would get nowhere today. Wouldn't be close to top 10.

    Kimbo probably has a better chin than Sapp but other than that I agree with you.

    I would put him over a lot of guys today - go look at his old fights. He could get down.

    I bet on Thompson for the upset. The odds are just too good to pass up.

    Have they fought yet? Thompson has a glass jaw. He was knocked out in 43 seconds by Butterbean.
