Default Kimbo vs Shamrock

So big bad Kimbo's next fight is against Ken Shamrock, have a feeling Ken will get destroyed and is on a 5 fight losing streak as it is just now !!!

Ken has one chance in this fight i reckon and that's to take Kimbo to the ground and work a submission on him, not gonna be an easy task im sure as Kimbo will know this is what Ken will be planning and im sure they will be putting some serious effort into his takedown defence.


Looking forward to this fight all the same as should be worth watching no matter what the outcome, always been a Shamrock fan since way back in his early days in Pancrase.

shamrock should have called it a day way back imo
he was good back in the day when mma fighters were more brawlers than skilled athletes.

^^^ Yeah watched that fight, was Lesnar front to back the whole match...


Kimbo is a amazing brawler but half assed MMA fighter and as said Shamrock is waaay past it, won't mean anything beyond the beating they give eacother. Perfect

kimbo and his manager will be in no rush to take on a fight he might get beat in,the more bums that get lined up the more cash rolls in.

they will want to protect his internet legend status.

Have to agree mate, im a great fan of Ken's and he was one of the original pioneer's of MMA and UFC so respect must go out to him for that but his recent performances have been shite to say the least !!! His last 2 fights against Tito Ortiz must have been done purely for the money as he got his ass handed to him both times !!!


Its really a win win situation for Kimbo in this fight cos if he wins they can say he beat the worlds most dangerous man and if he loses ( which i very much doubt ! ) they can say he was up against one of the best submission fighters in the world !!!

Kimbo's last fight against James Thompson showed just how inexperienced a fighter he really is and the fight should have been stopped as Thompson pounded on him for fucking ages when he had him down on the ground and Kimbo did fuck all in the way of offence against it !!!


I hope Ken manages to take him down and give him a good working over as Kimbo needs to be taken down a step or two IMHO !!

there was a thing on youtube where kimbo went up against a guy with dreads
the guy with dreads gave him a punch while he was on the ground and kimo's crew went all "that's cheating, let him back up again" and the guys momentum was all gone

fair play on kimbo he did hit the guy hard enough for one of his dreads to fall out, but that's all he is, a punching machine, he doens't look lik ehe can do anything else

Kimbo is just a bum beater on you tube, with no stamina and limited skill. The moment he meets someone half decent who's not a has been he'll get fucked.

Fook knows why folk think he's summat special! He's a big ugly cunt but theres millions of them around.

I too would like to see Lesner get hold of him! At least he's proved he can hack it in the real world of mma.

Lesnar and Kimbo would be an interesting match up !!!

Cant ever see it happening though as Elite XC are using Kimbo as their golden boy just now and have invested millions into him so there's not much chance of him going up against someone with the power and skill of Brock for quite some time i think !

Lesnar is a fucking animal, the company that supply the gloves for the UFC fighters only made them up to size XXL and they were nowhere near the size of Brock's hands !!! They have had to make them in size 5XL especially for him !!!! Imagine getting a slap from one of them !!!!

That was a quality fight, i love watching Lesnar, ever since i was younger watching the wwf/wwe, he was always my favourite.

Far too in experienced and silly in his first fight, but the one above proves he is the business, big, stong, fit, composed, clever, he's got it all i rekon

As for Kimbo, internet hero indeed, be interesting to see him getting put up against someone half decent. Instead of a past it Ken Shamrock.

if kimbo gets beaten by a fat bloke in his underpants, even after the bloke in a mac saves his ass twice, how's he going to face up to someone who's actually any good

in saying that, i'd last about 1 second against him so perhaps i shoudln't be bigging itup
