Default Kimbo vs. Tank

Anybody watching it? Should be a badass fight. It's this Saturday on Showtime at 10:00 pm EST, which is 9:00 pm our time. So who do you think will win?

well, its a story of a has been vs. a never will be. But it might turn out good.

Tank in a 1st round knockout IF he doesnt get submitted. Kimbo doesnt have the power to knock tank out, yea I said it.

I think Kimbo wins, this doesn't mean I think he's any good. I think any top 20 heavyweight knocks him out or submits him. Tank is washed up.

I dont see Tank getting knocked out by Kimbo......Tank has a fire hydrant for a head and can take a beating....but I do agree with Jesse, its just two guys that wont amount to much more than their status they have now. But in the end I think it is a good match up.

I say tank is going to **** him up. Kimbo is a mean fighter, and a thug, but tank is an OG fighter who just brawls and dont care.. He dont care if he gets knocked out or not....

But it will be a very interesting fight......
I will be watching it... I know they both been training...
well this fight could go either way... we shall see in 3 days.

I think kimbo is a backyard brawler and not up to the class of any real MMA fighters, but even I think Kimbo will wear Tanks old *** out.

KIMBO for the win. Tank is old guys, his record is like 1-7 in his last 8 fights. He didnt knock anyone out then and kimbo can take a punch too. But who cares they both suc IMO. Some MMA shows cant find fighters so they get the KIMBO's and keep the ol washed up guys like Tank, its just a waist of money on two idiots!

Tank has some popularity, but their careers are heading in 2 seperate directions. Don't get me wrong, 10 years ago Tank was one of my favorite fighter. Kimbo may be a thug, but he has some power and has been working diligently on his ground game. Not to say he can't be beat, but I don't think Tank has what it takes to beat him. Look at what Mir did to Lesner. If you put Kimbo in the cage with a well rounded fighter, he would have his hands full. Put Kimbo in the cage with Tank, and this is what you get:
