that should be a good fight. i just watched a few of his youtube fights.

**theatrain** · February 16th, 2008, 12:37 AM

Hes a really good guy from the looks of it. He looks like a scary ass thug, but in reality he seems like a nice guy.

i wished i could be there to see it live but unfortunately i shall have to see it on the screen.

**theatrain** · February 16th, 2008, 12:44 AM

Hah! Wildstang, I knew ever since that Brock Lesnar post I have converted you into an avid kimbo fan, I just knew it!.

By the way, if anyone remembers the youtube thread, I made a post on there it was to 5min.com video of Bas Rutten (One of the greatest MMA of all time) doing some pretty funny things, well anyway thats Kimbos Trainer since his professional career started and he put away his... well, I can't say gloves? lol.. since he stopped street fighting.

**wildstang** · February 16th, 2008, 12:52 AM

i'll admit he's caught my eye....lol ive watched a few of his barenuckle fights and they were kinda impressive.

**theatrain** · February 16th, 2008, 12:55 AM

Hes very humble.. which I like. Hes not too cocky and no matter how much smack
someone talks he really doesn't like to talk it back.

Tank Abbot just runs his mouth... hes completley out of shape I have no idea how hes
going to keep up with kimbo, but he has skill that I'm sure will not go unnoticed.

yea the fight i watched after connecting with the uppercut he helped the guy up and helped him walk over to a pallet.

anxious to see results of the fight above, but heres somebody i wish would start a carrer in mma. YouTube - Goldberg VS Tank abbott
atlantas own former-dirtybird bill goldburg

**theatrain** · February 16th, 2008, 10:12 PM

Goldberg is a beast!!

But I personally don't like "wrestlers"
I tend to favor the stand up guys, boxingm muay thai, etc

I don't like ground work much. There's a few things on the ground that impress me, but I mostly like watching for hay makers or nice clean shots to the face

i think goldberg would have a decent standup potential. in the link i provided it was clear tank was acting as if he was in a ufc fight not wrestling. goldberg just rocked him with body shots.

Kimbo Won via KO in round 1.

If you wanna watch UFC or other MMA events LIVE (but dont wanna pay $$) go to SopCast - Free P2P internet TV | live football, NBA, cricket and download the program.
Then you can stream live Channels. UFC and other fights will be held on the "MMA channel".
I found it from a friend the last UFC event, and trust me...Im never paying for a PPV again.

Was there ever any doubt. Kimbo fought a washed up, out of shape bar brawler. I want to see him against someone that is worth a shit and see how he does. I will admit from watching him that 1. He can take some punishment and keep going with his steel head. 2. He hits like a ton of bricks. 3.I like how he presents himself. But come on guys you are talking about him like he just won a UFC heavyweight championship. Put him in against some real fighters that are in their prime. If he wins some of those (which i think he could), then I will give him more props. Until then keep it real on what he is. A really badass backyard fighter.
