                          I really feel sorry for Mercer. He's 46 years old, and is a washed up boxer.

                          Kimbo has been training with the Avellans down at FFA Miami, one of the TOP schools in Florida.

                          It's gonna be so one sided, and I can't wait to see Kimbo turn Pro!

                              That Kimbo guy is nothing but a big bastard. He's totally amateur...I saw a few vids of his fights..well he can beat guys but he's not a good or trained fighter..he'll loose unless it's cheating

                                  Kimbo may catch a beating that will end him in this fight

                                          Hello, this is Marcos Avellan, one of the head instructors of FFA. Kimbo Slice will be making his pro MMA debut versus Ray Mercer this June in the CFFC 5 event. Ray Mercer is a former WBO Heavyweight Champion and Gold Medalist boxer.

                                          To answer a few frequently asked questions... Kimbo trained with FFA on and off for the past couple of years for bareknuckle boxing techniques. We had never trained for MMA - rather we worked on boxing, elbows, striking from the clinch, etc.

                                          Kimbo, despite what many people think, had never trained consistently before. He has a busy schedule and hadn't made the mental commitment before.

                                          Now he has decided to commit 100% to professional fighting and is taking the plunge into MMA. Considering his background is pure striking, he is taking a tough first fight. Most fighters from established camps take easier fights for their first few. Keep in mind, Kimbo is still a white belt.

                                          That being said, we have about three months to prepare for this bout. Kimbo will be coming in FANTASTIC shape and will be ready to take out Mercer. Kimbo has solid striking technique and incredible power... with guts to match.

                                          He is working MMA with black belts David Avellan, Efrain Ruiz, and myself. For his boxing, he is working with FFA striking coach Eric "El Tigre" Castanos (three-time kickboxing world champion and boxing coach of Jermain Taylor). He definitely will be trained properly for the fight.

                                          I'm very excited about this match up, we started training about ten days ago and the man is on a serious mission.

                                          Sincerely,
                                          Marcos Avellan

                                                  he's much more a bouncer than a real fighter....I belive that he'll be training a lot (with the best instructors he can have) but he's VERY slow for being a pro IMO.

So these two will stand up and bang it out most of the time and should make for some good action. It's really going to come down to who can take who's punch better than the other. I'd put my money on mercer, he had a chin when he was a pro and has taken many many more hard punchers. But really this one will be entertaining if nothing else.

                                                                                                          Striking is only one part of the equation.

                                                                                                          Kimbo is training at FFA Miami, one of the best grappling schools in Florida. I've personally watched David Avellan beat Rener Gracie in a submission grappling match. If for one second you think that FFA isn't training Kimbo in taking Mercer down, and ground and pound, you need to learn what MMA is al about.

                                                                                                          Go watch UFC 1 - 4. See what happens when strikers don't know the ground. Get back to me.

                                                                                                                      This is going to be an unfortunate event..

                                                                                                                      Just nothing for Mercer to gain.

So these two will stand up and bang it out most of the time and should make for some good action. It's really going to come down to who can take who's punch better than the other. I'd put my money on mercer, he had a chin when he was a pro and has taken many many more hard punchers. But really this one will be entertaining if nothing else.

Chuck is actually a great ground fighter.

Watch every Rampage fight starting from his first one agaisn't Saku. Steady rising.

All I see is that fucking gay ass music video from "Rick Roll". Anyone else have a different link to the news clip?

                                                                                                                                                              I'm not taking away that he's an athlete. I'm saying he won't be able to make the change from boxing to MMA. He's too old, too many ingrained habits from boxing. Whether I'm wrong, we'll find out in 3months.

                                                                                                                                                              As for Ground and Pound versus Liddell..
