Dude, did the Kimbo Slice fight look scripted or what? That looked way fake to me...
I'm pretty sad that Kimbo lost... I love that guy... Him and Fedor have the greatest personalities.

Maybe this was not the "Best" MMA fight ever...although I am sure many of you remember it.
UFC #1, first round ever:
gerard gordeau vs teila tuli

He got tagged in the jaw with a right hook as he came in on Seth, and he went down.
I've seen fighters hit harder than that and still stay up or recover quickly from a punch like that. But Kimbo, he just went down and stayed down.

Nah, Seth jumped right on him and there was just little Slice could have done except try to be lucky and have punches miss - it happens all the time, recently Edwards vs. Noons for example. Yves is most definitely not a chump, but just got overwhelmed after getting dropped.
It's crazy the kind of killer instinct pro fighters have. It never ceases to amaze me - I box and do muay thai for fun and when I have the opportunity to spar against a pro, the kind of constant pressure and exploiting your gaps and weaknesses is crazy! Drop a hand sparring against an amateur and you eat a punch, back off, and survey the situation again. Drop a hand against a pro and all of sudden you've eaten a jab, cross, uppercut and two hooks out of nowhere in a blink of an eye

I loved watching Kimbo lose! He has been spoon fed cans throughout his career. This loss couldn't have been any sweeter because 1. Seth is very unknown 2. Seth weighed alot less 3. 14 seconds 4. The look on Jared Shaw's face 5. Elite XC expected Kimbo to walk through Seth

HAHAHA I'm so glad this Kimbo Slice thing is finally over. CBS and EXC did everything in their power to find a replacement for Shamrock that would lose to Slice. So they get Seth Petruzelli!
HAHAHA he gave up 4 inches of reach and 30 pounds to slice!!!!
Elite XC is such a joke, I'm so glad Slice got rocked
**Griffin-Bonner was such an epic fight, I also really enjoyed the Faber-Pulver fight
