    A lot of people thought Kimbo was the real deal. I use to post on youtube. I have seen the comments.

    I use to think when he was undefeated that he could beat that Russian dude Frank Mir, or the big guy with a crew cut, with proper training and experiance.

    Not to sound like a racist but the only people who thought Kimbo was the real deal where alot of African American people or people who come from the Ghetto type neighboorhoods and kinda felt like they related to him. Kimbo seems like a decent guy but hes not cut out to be a MMA fighter fighting in the big shows. Kimbo is slow, has no stamina, old, has bad knees, no skills, not athletic and I could go on and on. Frank Mir isnt Russian buddy hes American as you can get. Frank would use Kimbo to whipe his ass with.

    Hyped because he could draw. Remember this guy became a household name putting those videos on Youtube the whole freaking world knew who he was and wanted to see what would happen. Brock Lesnar was extremly pouplar also coming in because of his WWE background and this guy was main eventing shows soon as he came out agian because guys like that sadly draw alot of money. Difference is Lesnar has talent.

    I would like to see Kimbo fight Bob Sapp.

    I think Sapp would have trouble dealing with the speed of Kimbo, but if the fight goes to the ground Kimbo would have trouble dealing with Sapps strength and submission ability.

    What?

    This would a classic match up of speed vs strength. I would really like to see this bout.

    You gonna tell me with a straight face you wouldn't watch Kimbo vs Bob Sapp? Thats is an intresting match up to see. The Japs would love it. And this fight needs to happen.

    First off this fight DOESNT need to happen. Secondly the Japanese MMA circuit is going through a downturn and i highly doubt well see Kimbo debut on any show in Japan be it DREAM WVR or Sengoku. Thirdly its NOT an interesting matchup. Fourth i never said i wouldnt watch it. Your point was to compare Sapps strength with Kimbo's speed. What speed?!?!?!?! Fifth no one cares about this fight apart from you.

    thats true :deal i could see him fighting in Strikeforce against a few bums, or fighting on cards similar to the ones Tim Sylvia or Butterbean fight on (if they could afford him)

    i respect anybody that steps in the cage good or not,with that said i hope he goes on to make a living fighting anyone,anywhere, at anytime the man is humble and deserves to fight,he just came to the sport to old and one dimensional,but i hope he continues to train hard and learn and maybe he will get called back up to the ufc someday

    Sapp is 10 times the striker Kimbo is. Kimbo couldn't even KO Thompson.
