Fighting a WAY over the hill Tank abbott won't tell you much about Kimbo.. unless he loses. Kimbo is training with MMA legend Bas Rutten, so he's at least training for the sport like he's serious about it.

Is he not a little past his game as well?</div> more than a little, he's got 3 wins since 1996 and only one of those is a 'name' fighter.. and he wasn't a good fighter either. he's over the hill like tank

how about James Thompson losing!! further proof as to how overrated Pride was by Pride nuthugging fans. I didn't dislike Pride at all, I just Loathed the Pride-eccentric fans.. they're kinda like Kobe nuthuggers. good to see Yves Edwards and his thug-jitsu ways back on the winning track.

I'd like to see him face James Thompson
