Did Kimbo really get paid $500,000.00 to go down like a little bitch???

**seeandsee** · 10-07-2008, 11:59 AM

Kimbo sucks

**arial** · 10-07-2008, 12:02 PM

He was smart to cash out while he still could.

**Brad** · 10-07-2008, 12:04 PM

At least it wasn't a PPV. Thought I really don't think they'd get that many PPV buys for a Kimbo headlining fight.

**hypedough** · 10-07-2008, 12:04 PM

What the fuck Arlovski got $500,000 too?

**»Rob Content«** · 10-07-2008, 12:05 PM

Kimbo was worth a lot more to them if he won the fight, because he was their rating draw against big name guys who people recognize.

Now that he lost to a no name guy, he's not nearly a draw and it hurts their entire card.

Kimbo was exposed fighting someone trained. His online fights were against overweight out of shape guys.

RSP threw the fight against matt serra

it was only the highest odds fight in the ufc history.. 10:1...

**mynameisjim** · 10-07-2008, 12:13 PM

Maybe Kimbo is smarter than he looks and just doesn't want to fight anymore. He took his half million and just fell to the mat.

**Mr. Cool Ice** · 10-07-2008, 12:16 PM

He's from the street. It will be spent within a month. EVERY hangers on dead beat cousin in the world is hitting him up right now to get some. Sad.

**cess** · 10-07-2008, 12:17 PM

Yeah you would think the winner gets a big cut. I think Seth only got 50k or something like that. With Kimbo it should've been something like 250k to show up and 250k+ to the winner.

Actually Elite XC will be fine, but ProElite is fucked. Showtime will own Elite XC by next year when the fail to repay the loan that they took to keep the org afloat.

He got $500k for fighting -win or lose. He would have received another $100k if he had won.

**Manowar** · 10-07-2008, 02:17 PM

he would have made more winning it in keeping his legend going

Yep, I agree 100%. He was fighting guys that wouldn't otherwise make a card. Even Shamrock is way over the hill. But Kimbo was a name "Joe Six-Pack" could recognize so he filled seats.

Except that he probably wouldn't have won even if he tried. Kimbo gets tired fast.

**The Duck** · 10-07-2008, 03:30 PM

Whatever.

**sfera** · 10-07-2008, 03:53 PM

Right....

**cherrylula** · 10-07-2008, 04:20 PM

On October 4, 2008, at EliteXC: Heat, he defeated Kimbo Slice in 14 seconds by TKO. He was offered the fight as a stand-in after Ken Shamrock received a cut over his left eye in pre-fight practice and was forced to back out

So was Shamrock supposed to lose?

**Spunky** · 10-07-2008, 07:53 PM

It looked like a rig. fuck sakes,glad I didn't bet on him

**Phoenix** · 10-07-2008, 07:56 PM

his eyes look pretty awake on the way down
maybe he was told to go down in the 5th... pulp fiction ;)

The whole thing fucking sucks. What a biatch.

Still can't believe he went down like that...

I lost all my respect for EliteXC

Chumps are paid way to much for NOT putting on a good show

I don't get what you're saying. He could have won $100,000 + other bonuses if he could get up and continue fighting and win. Doesn't sound like anybody would stay down with that + the possibility of future fights bringing in this amount of cash.

**SmokeyTheBear** · 10-07-2008, 09:47 PM

i think alot of people underestimate what a well placed punch can do when the victim isn't expecting it. Kimbo didn't see the punch coming , he was caught "unawares". I wouldnt quite call it a "lucky" punch , just perhaps how it landed. I think if you recreated the scenario 100 times you would never get a result like that

Did Kimbo really get paid $500,000.00 to go down like a little bitch???
