Kimbo Slice Vs. James Thompson

[Tom Yum]

I was just so impressed at how good he was in all ranges, and how adaptable he was...

Thanks, Tree!




oh you were taking about Faber...nevermind.

Is Elite XC affiliated with the UFC? I noticed that Elite XC had Mickeys, Burger King, and Rockstar as sponsors. I know Mickeys has been a UFC sponsor and I'm pretty sure I've seen Burger King on TUF.

It seems weird that the UFC would ink a deal where their sponsors are allowed to advertise with their competition as well...?

No they are absolutely unaffiliated. I don't think people sign exclusive contracts with advertisers.

EXCELLENT FIGHT: until the third round, I thought the referee stop the fight too early. Kimbo did show good defence on the ground, but thompson clearly had the first two rounds won.

I like watching Kimbo fight.

I think MMA benefits by having the occasional "Less Technical Giant" in the ring - Tank Abbot and the like.

I love to watch a technical game. But I like the wild cards too.

no theyre competitors.

EXC put on a few good shows but there last show on CBS, the one that counted the most, was terrible. It got a 6.5 million tv rating or something but that mustve gave only the wrong impression of MMA.

UFC (including WEC), to my suprise, is starting to present the fighters and fights alot more like PRIDE did with the professionalism and art.

Kimbo's technical game his improved, but Tank Abbot was just a monster in the ring!
