The first fight between these guys was awesome -- no, they're not the top pros in their weight class - but they are so evenly matched it makes for a perfect fight. The first meeting ended in a 'no contest' because of a finger in the eye -- it's cool they are fighting again already to correct a mistake by the ring doctor. <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/H6YgvPJPQfU&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/H6YgvPJPQfU&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> CBS put together a pretty cool little promo for the fight.
not a bad fight card overall for elitexc....diaz and shields are fighting also. i can't wait until the rogers v slice fight. i think it's sometime in september. kimbo will get beat down if he fights rogers. if he beats rogers that would certainly be a massive step forward in kimbo's career.
Lawler vs. Smith was one of the more entertaining MMA fights i've seen -- yeah, there are better guys out there, but this match up is perfect -- these guys just attack.
I think a prime time fight on national TV [CBS] deserves at least one bump... No Kimbo isn't fighting, but these guys were far and away the fight of the night.
Im looking forward for the final fight on CBS.....flipping back and forth between Spike and CBS. BJ Penn is my favorite fighter.
I haven't heard anything about this. Isn't Kimbo a Heavyweight and Robbie a middleweight? Robbie would have to pack on some SERIOUS pounds to fight at Heavyweight or would Kimbo be dropping weight to fight at Light heavyweight? I dunno, let us know where you heard about it man.
Kimbo goes 230-250 -- he is definitely a heavyweight. Did anyone catch his interview -- the dude is very well spoken for such a supposed street thug -- i'd like to hear more of his history. He will definitely be headlining the next big card on CBS so hopefully he will get a interesting match up. We need to pull up some old Kimbo threads SamFisher posted a few years ago -- could be funny... 'He needs BREAD! ALL DAY!'
