I knew this would happen sooner or later. Elite XC has been putting Kimbo up against bums. He almost lost against the half brain dead James Thompson. If Shamrock would have been allowed to fight I believe he would have beaten Slice anyway. Yes he is washed up and done as a fighter but even he would have still won.
I have respect for Kimbo and what he's accomplished. Hopefully this is a wake up call for him and Elite XC... put Kimbo in the octagon with a skilled fighter that isn't washed up and he'll get dominated. Hopefully this will make him train a lot harder and really try to master MMA. I would love to see Kimbo Slice become a legitimate MMA fighter. He still needs A LOT of work but nothing is impossible.
Elite XC figured they'd throw in some nobody and let Kimbo dominate him and give the crowd what they wanted, to see Kimbo Slice knock someone out since Shamrock wasn't allowed to fight. Petruzelli's a skilled MMA fighter and just made a name for himself. Unless you're a hardcore Ultimate Fighter fan did you know who Seth Petruzelli was before tonight?

Perfectly said. Anyone that watched the fight on TV and not a short you tube shit quality clip knows exactly whats up. If your a true MMA fan than you can respect the fact that Petrazelli used a basic Karate Push kick to keep the distance, as Kimbo went to maul him against the cage Seth hit him with a short right, right on the magic spot.
Without a doubt Kimbo has faced bigger punchers even in street fights and by the looks of things people would say Josh Thompson hit him 3x harder than Seth..... All true, however Thompson didn't hit him where Seth did or as cleanly.
It's no biggie, Kimbo got caught. Only thing that makes Kimbo different is the fact that Elite XC put him at the top of the food chain and set him up to be the guy that launched them into the big league's. Not Kimbo's fault, good for him and his Family, and who knows maybe the best thing that happend to Kimbo was getting beat, "almost" getting beat last time is one lesson learned, getting beat to shit in 14 seconds in your own backyard from a kid that "showed up" to the venue to watch the fight, not be in it is the lesson of a lifetime.
Anyone saying it was fixed clearly hasn't seen the fight and if they did they are out of their fucking mind, Kimbo got caught, period.
