http://mmajunkie.com/news/15060/kimbo-slice-scores-the-ultimate-fighter-10-slot.mma Holy shit, as a Kimbo fan from his youtube videos, this is fucking awesome, the guy is a riot, will bring HUGE ratings to Spike and the UFC, and hopefully (as a fan of his) do well. I wouldn't be surprised whatsoever to see him get his ass kicked, but he should bring some entertainment to the show. Hopefully for his sake he's on Rashad's team so he can maybe learn some other techniques other than what he already knows how to do - throw bombs. Him and Rampage would be one of the most hilarious duo's ever though.
Holy fuck. Ratings bananza. I really hope he makes it into the house. If he is on Rashad's team, imagine the trash talking between him and Rampage. Please make it into the house, Kimbo.
The heavyweights don't have to fight to get into the house this season. They have already selected the 16 that will make it in the house.
LOL, I guess that's why they weren't having tryouts! I never would've minded Kimbo if they hadn't marketed him as a top heavyweight, which he clearly never was. Rampage + Kimbo should equal hilarity.
Kimbo comes in at about 6:40. [video=youtube;fHGSihL_dv0]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fHGSihL_dv0[/video]
^ Do you know what he's sayin'? Yeah, but do you know what he's sayin'? Do you know what I'm sayin'? Do you? Do you know? What I'm sayin'? Do you know what I'm sayin'? Do you have a GED? Still, gotta give him respect for putting everything on the line. He gets blown out on TUF and he walks away with what? Guy made $500,000 in his last fight and it was watched by 7-million people.
I'm predicting that whomever the opposing coach is, will put in their top wrestler vs Kimbo and Kimbo will spend 2 to 10 mins on his back and lose right away
I keep thinking there has to be a swerve coming. Something along the lines of: Kimbo spends the first 7 weeks providing "color" to the house, but when he is finally supposed to fight in week 8, he develops a phantom injury and has to drop out.
I hope Kimbo wins the whole damn show. I'd love for him to improve like hell and fight Brock Lesnar one day.
Personally, I don't find either of them very sympathetic. Lesnar is a raging egotist, and for awhile there the Kimbo nuthuggers were the worst in MMA. Kind of a moot point anyway - Kimbo has as much of a chance against Lesnar as Bob Sapp would against Fedor. (and when someone compares you, unfavorably, to Bob Sapp - you might as well just light yourself on fire!)
