    I think Kimbo turns down the fight.

    And yeah, wasn't very impressd by Schuab. I think Roy would school him.

    TUF is skipping next week and will air the two-hour special Dec. 5th, FYI.

    Is touching gloves when the round starts a strategic maneuver? I noticed Schaub didn't want to do it against Madsen. It is one those things that gives away your reach?

    I bet a select few fighters use it for that but I think in general it is just sportsmanship

    in madsen's first fight when abe tried to touch gloves, madsen took the opportunity to take him down. so it's not too surprising that someone didn't want to touch gloves with him.

    Yep.

    there have even been people to fake touching gloves, and throw kicks (I think Manny Gamburian?)

    That Swiss fighter knocked his opponent out in one of the UFC under cards after they touched gloves after an accidental head butt or low blow (I forget). That was a sucker punch.

    It was hilarious when Rampage was explaining to Kimbo how he's going to get kicked in the knee over and over again if he gets the fight. Kimbo looks at him and says "So what the fuck should I do?" LOL

    Darrill has been recalled to the Army. He will fight at the Finale but afterward will go back into active duty, it seems.

    I read that too, that sucks for him, especially if he ends up winning the whole thing. He said he wanted to lose weight to drop to 205 though, if that happens I want to see a titties vs Rampage match.

    with the ratings he generated?? It'd be more shocking if he was left off the TUF 10 final.

    He's fighting Houston Alexander, a guy who likes to stand and bang. Custom made for Kimbo to at least have a shot at winning.

    Houston's leg kicks will chop Kimbo down, me thinks.

    Houston is gonna knock the fuck outta Kimbo. Houston Alexander is no joke standing up, especially against a guy that got knocked out by a jab.

    LOL if Houston's been watching TUF then he'll know he should be using them.

    thing is, I gotta believe Kimbo is training hard at ATT and will be somewhat improved by the time he fights.

    if he's been f**king around then he's dunzo.

    The only thing is, how much bigger is Kimbo than Houston?

    Kimbo weighs what 230? 235?

    Houston doesn't look big for a 205er.

    Good question, but I see Kimbo getting rocked either way.

    Kimbo versus Houston Alexander is a great matchup. Whoever lands first is going to win via KO and I think Houston has the hand speed advantage.
