ELITE XC has some “balls” with this one.
Using a former legitimate MMA champion, a legend like Ken Shamrock as “fodder” for Kimbo.
You know, not for nothing, ever since GSP gave me a BS story about interviewing me(remember Michelle)and never followed through, add to this the fact that Mr. Shaw never responded to my emails about the year long wait to be interviewed, and yea, I’ve had a negative attitude.
Still, I was giving this “upstart” organization the benefit of the doubt.
The buck stops here.
I honestly hope that Ken takes this seriously and goes in this to win. TEST KIMBO KEN!
DON’T LET ELITE XC MAKE A FOOL OF YOU. IF YOU GIVE IT 100% and lose, so be it.
DO NOT give Kimbo a break for any amount of $$$.
If you can turn back the clock to the Ortiz fight and that version shows up, we will see what KIMBO is made of.
You had better believe that Dana White would find out if Kimbo is real or not.
The UFC don’t play!
You get “tested” real quick.
Thumbs up to Dana and Joe Silva.
Mr. Shaw, I do not appreciate being ignored after being told by your office that my resume reached you in CA.
For well over a year, not responding to email inquiries is most unprofessional.
My 2 cents!

I donâ€™t see anyway possible that Kimbo Slice will be Ken Shamrock. Shamrock is coming off of an embarrassing loss and Kimbo, by now, must beginning to believe the hype about himself. Kimbo has a big punch, but no discernable MMA skills. James Thompson was the perfect opponent for Slice because he has no MMA skills either. A better fight would probably be Robert Berry vs. Kimbo Slice. I wonder why they paired Slice up with the LOSER of Berry vs. Shamrockâ€¦

Re: Harry and the Hendersons…

Look at the picture of Kimbo way up there at the top. Same beard, same posture, knuckles dragging on the ground…

If it looks like a sasquatch, talks like a sasquatch, and walks like a sasquatch….

The problem I have with Ken is that in his last several fights (both Tito, Franklin, Kimo and others) he now wants to stand and trade with guys. That is NOT the way to beat Kimbo for Ken. I do think there are several HW’s that can stand and trade with Kimbo but not Ken…

One thing Ken does have going for him is he does not need to worry about making the 205lb weight so he should be more energetic, assuming he leaves the first round, that will be a big problem for Kimbo if it goes to later rounds (assuming the Ref doesn’t stop it for no apparent reason and declare Kimbo the winner)

I see Ken doing fine with the strength of Kimbo but Ken’s chin is in serious question, if Ken stands with Kimbo he loses. If ken takes Kimbo down he still has to put him in an extremely dangerous position or submission because the ref will not let kimbo lose to a GnP – Thompson had him for nearly 2 minutes laying there in a fetal position and the ref did nothing.

When I said Thompson’s ground game was in question I didn’t mean he had NO ground game, what I meant was Thompson is NOT a submission or GnP known fighter. He’s a strong striker that is an MMA fighter so he is well rounded. Ken SHOULD have better takedowns than Thompson has, He should also have a better submission game. But all of this is assuming Ken is even going to last past the first minute.
