    Nothing to do with Kimbo's people...They arent the ones that started that, plus how would it benefit them to say that someone was pretty much paid to give you a better shot at winning and you still lost:huh Not sure that that is something that Kimbo's people would do:verysad

    Kimbo was exposed when he went to war with James Thompson. :lol:

    I was suprised they took on Seth at the last minute and was less suprised that Seth beat him.

    A) its like when you were a kid and your dad had 28 bucks laying around the house and you only took 3...You could have took the whole amount but the reprecussion would have been much greater

    B) Im sure they thought as long as Slice isnt on the ground he would win, since they thought that he could be heavyweight champ in boxing right now.

    For the love of God, people, please stop making posts about Kimbo. These keep getting moved to the MMA forum and we already know about it all.

    Pleeeeease stop.

    Well, the big question is would he have still gotten the extra money if he lost. If all they did was raise the KO bonus, but he still had to win to collect it, then whats the big deal?

    Besides, it's MMA, so who really cares? It's more like a wrestler being paid extra for letting the other guy hit him over the head with a chair. lol
