Hey guys,
Well, i happen to like Kimbo, and what i love more, is that most fans like him, because they feel him. If you listen to the crowd after the fight when Seth was speaking, they booed, but then when Kimbo talked briefly, they cheered. And this is because he has believability, because of his street fighting. Trust me, i could care less about all these guys gold metals, USA ranks, and olympic credentials, ie: Shamrock. Who cares, they should've stood there. UFC came from back yard fighting, but is cleaned up for branding purposes.
Anyway, I know that he needs much training, but that fight surprised me. For about 12 seconds of the fight Seth was petrified, and knew that Kimbo would kill him, but he landed a quick punch, which shocked me when Kimbo fell, because i've seen him take punches that hit like bricks one after the other after the other, and still whip the dudes butt right after.
And Seth, damn near missed every punch to follow when Kimbo was on the ground, LOL.
Kimbo needs efficient ground tactics, and obviously needs to become a bit more patient, but his career is far from over, and in his time, he is going to sadden a lot of assholes with the same perception Dana White has of him.
I'll be humbly waiting for a reply, but make it a good one, please, ha !!
