I am shocked that Dana didn't sign him to fight Brock that would be good ratings LOL

Yeah, being from South Florida myself, I've heard a lot from him on local radio shows. He's actually a pretty good guy and a lot smarter than people give him credit for. I'm a fan! |

Yeah, I totally admit that I understimated this dude completely.
It was easy to write'em off as some internet/youtube street fighting thug and when his name started to get tossed around in serious MMA circles, I figured it was mainly freakshow appeal.....But it's good to see him training so seriously & having such a good attitude about it. He's not resting on his internet image of pure street brawler to get by.
That said, he is in his early/mid 30's and has only been seriously training for about 18mo or so....so we'll see how far he can actually go in the sport.
Bas has said though, that the dude has such good fighting instincts and has been so eager to learn, that he has progressed a great deal in that time. Gonna be cool to watch'em tonight.

I was surprised to hear him talk. I sort of expected him to be a thugged out idiot ala Charles "crazy horse" Bennet, or be as smart as a brick like Diego Sanchez. He actually seems like a smart, likable guy.
It's sort of a shame they couldn't find him a better opponent for his debut. I seem to recall Paul Buentello calling him out not that long ago, I'd sort of like to see that match.

I'm a fan of Kimbo and agree with Stephan Quadros. The more fights he has, the more he'll fine tune other aspects of his fight game because he's gonna need it. Bas is doing a fine job with training pretty much a no skilled street fighter.
If Bas can get Kimbo to learn even basic ground fighting? Watch out. This fool is gonna hurt some dudes in the HW divsion of MMA

I would agree... an uppercut that landed to the body, then an elbow that seemed to glance Cantrell's head, who then falls and begins tapping like he is scared for his life... |

Cantrell did not come out to fight. He wanted the money and not getting hurt in the process. That's what he did. So, this fight, as Bas said, is no indication of where Kimbo is in the sport.
Yes, he is big and he hits hard, but so do many others. A fight against Buentello would tell us where Kimbo really is.
