How so?? He survived the ground game and was never stunned by the weak *** elbows. It was a good fight and took him into a zone he had never gone before. Bottom line is here that the ear exploded, Thompson was wobbly and Slice jacked his *** up a few hard times. Kimbo should have won the fight but needs to work on his conditioning, stamina and ground game from here on out.

I really dont care for kimbo, once he gets brought to the ground he has no clue what to do. Thompson had him beat IMO if he would of got his ear drained before the fight, They were both dead tired. Thompson should of just tried to finish it when he had him on the ground but they were both exhausted.

That whole league was a joke and an insult to the UFC. Kimbo had more powerful punches that was all....the ground game went to thompson all day long. If he had a little more upper body strength and landed some powerful elbows he would of took the fight. The elbows he threw DID affect kimbo as he showed signs of being affected but in the end his powerful punches took out thompson. Kimbos conditioning needs a big step up if he wants to contend with any fighters worth a ****. The UFC heavyweights I think would take him out no problem.....
I wouldnt mind seeing kimbo vs brock lesnar!

I thought it blew since he needs work on his ground...
Once there he was just trying to stop the blows. yes weak blows, but overall I was expecting more since he has BEEN TRAINING SO HARD....
He has always had a good stand up, so he should of just been working on his ground game. IMO... He knows how to stand and throw, I thought he was working hard on ground game.. that is why I thought it blew..

3rd fight, needs lots of practice. Don`t forget fellas. He is getting really old to try UFC fighting. I don`t think he is going to make it after last night!

Kimbo would get owned in the UFC...Tito is right about his assessment of Kimbo...he is no where near an elite MMA fighter...
It showed last night big time...he was clueless on the ground and after the fight they practically had to carry Kimbo out of the ring...he was totally gassed....
Any of the upper UFC HW's would of dominated Kimbo...
Kimbo still needs a lot of training...but father time is not on his side as he is old for starting out in MMA...
Kimbo/Lesner match would be a big headliner and probably make both fighters a lot of money...Lesner dumdumdum!
