People are asking for Kimbo to face Antonio Silva or Brett Rogers. And the opposing viewpoint are saying that no way should a guy with just 2 MMA fights fight someone of any stature. Its a tough situation.
I agree that a fighter with just 2 sanctioned fights should be allowed to be built up. But the problem lies in EliteXC shoving the guy down our throats. How many times Saturday night did I have to hear how Kimbo was a superstar? They are the ones making him out to be unbeatable. So its only natural that fans want to see him against better competition. If you're constantly being told what a superstar you are watching, you want to see him prove it.
I like Kimbo and still think he has a good future. But like many, as long as EliteXC continues to push him as this unbeatable monster, I want to see him prove it against better fighters.
