I think Mercer could pull it off. But, Kimbo seems to have been training to look as much like a homeless person as possible, so you never know what the Hell he will bring to the fight. To me, this is like an aging boxer beating up some homeless guy on a street corner. Hmm, this fight is in the ring right? I mean, it's not actually taking place on a street corner? Is it? (LOL, J/K)

Same here. If I had found the odds sooner and was able to put it up, I would have put a ton on Kimbo myself. As it is, Ive only been able to bet under 1K....ive got just over 30K on Penn.

I have absolutely no clue as to who to bet on in this one. I also have the majority of my points tied up in TUF 5 Finale. Neither have any MMA fights under their belt, so I am really on the fence in this one. Any clues,tips, etc. on who to bet on??

Im afraid that youth, speed, strength, and conditioning might be all stacked against Mercer on this one. The man is 46 years old and looks every bit of it. I just hope this fight doesnt turn out to be a debacle like the Morrison fight.

I just watched the fight and Kimbo completely destroyed Mercer. He was throwing knees in the clench, landing combinations with strikes, had a great double leg takedown, and then ended the fight with a guillatine choke from guard. He looked pretty good but then again his opponent didnt really train for an mma match either. So take that as you want to.....
