   After seeing this fight recently I decided to do some searching about this dude that messed up another guys face so bad in a backyard fight. And it turns out he's known as Kimbo Slice. I've only seen like 3 of his fights so far, but it looks like he packs one hell of a punch! here's the stuff I've seen. He got creamed by a UFC guy, Gannon, but looked like he just ran out of puff in that one. And you can see how f*cked up the other dude's face was too in that fight. Anyway, Here's the vid links, they're pretty gory so if you don't like the look of my avatar maybe steer clear of it, otherwise check em out! And if you guys find anymore fights with this dude Kimbo please post em up I wanna see more http://www.youtube.com/w...mp;search=kimbo%20Slice

Thumb, WTF?! http://media.skoopy.com/misc/japantv/Lets get this straight – Gannon is not UFC material! Sean “the Cannon” Gannon made his debut in UFC 55: Fury. He was up against Branden Lee Hinkle, also making his debut that night, who proceeded to spank the living shit out of Gannon in 4:14. No second round needed. That is Gannon’s only ever fight in the UFC. His MMA record stands at 1-1. But yeah, Kimbo is cool. I knew you’d like the eye  I’ve got more vids, but I can’t be f’d finding/uploading them right now... will do when I get some time.

oh ok, didn't know he'd only had 1 or 2 fights. I heard he was crap compared to most UFC guys and led to people criticising Kimbo for only fighting bums. Still, he has a huge punch! Gannon's face was screwed up by the end too.

Not too impressive. Doesn't appear to have any extreme power, stamina is woeful, technique was poor. Wouldn't last 5 minutes in MMA. Seen better underground fights but the "Bird" one was quite good, he got mashed up.

No way would that guy last at all in the UFC. Slow stockers went out with Tank Abbot. You have to quicker or someone would break his legs with leg kicks and then ground and pound him as he is slowwwwww.

 Not bad Nibbles. At first I thought it was for real, but started wondering, damn this kid must pack a mean punch for such a little guy... But his rapping mate gave it away. It's refreshing to know their are people more bored than me out there

Its so awesome how this guy went from fighting in a backyard and streetfighting, to fighting in front of a huge crowd like that. Can't wait to see more of his fights now too

That fight was a joke last night and shows Kimbo has a looooong way to go before he gets any respect from the MMA fighters who cannot stand him. If he fought anyone good last night, he would have gotten his ass kicked when he spent the better part of the 2nd round on his back without a clue. First time they put him the ring with a good fighter,who knows what he's doing, he'll get his ass handed to him I'm NOT politically correct,deal with it!

"Ivan Drago"I preferred it when he was fighting bums on the street  That's what he's meant to do. He had no ground game at all,could not even figure out how to execute the simplest of moves while he was on his back I'm NOT politically correct,deal with it!

Why is the MMA grooming Kimbo as a poster-boy for the sport? He makes a mockery of everything the sport stands for.

I've been getting into this MMA stuff a little lately
And already I have no respect for this bum. He thinks he's a hero because he beats up on clueless people smaller than him on the street then somehow gets into a competition with real fighters. I so badly want to see him take on someone decent and get well and truely owned.

"Cold Dog"Why is the MMA grooming Kimbo as a poster-boy for the sport? He makes a mockery of everything the sport stands for. You're absolutely right CD. They're trying to cash in on his underground popularity,and it's gonna bite this company in the ass and quick I'm NOT politically correct,deal with it!
