Kimbo's shitty ground game was the reason Roy ended up where he did...........twice. Doubt Roy gets another fighter in a crucifix.

Now let's not act like it is impossible to get up from under Nelson. You have to have BJJ skills and stamina in order to do so which Kimbo doesn't have as much as the creative editing on that show wanted you to believe.

Eh, I think Kimbo is one of the few fighters he can do that to so easily.

I want to see them put some guys that swing for the fence in with Kimbo. We all know what happens with a wrestler or basically anyone that is going to take him down. Throw his arse in there with Cro cop. lol

We know he has a fight in December. Do you think he'll be on the finale or on the PPV?

Disappointing result for Kimbo, but isn't Roy the best fighter in the house?

I don't know if Kimbo can do this, but I'd like to see him try to get some take downs so he doesn't have to worry about getting on his back, where he is absolutely useless.

I am just saying someone that big and round just would seem to smother anyone if he can get on top. If that is already his game I think that is pretty hard to go up against.

Don't know if he's the best, but he probably has the best resume.

I'd guess the Finale. I think he gets back in the house and Rashad sticks another wrestler in there with him and he loses again. Then he goes on the finale where they might find a taylor made guy to fight him like Brad Imes or something. I really want to see him fight a tough guy that will brawl with him. I mentioned Cro Cop, even Heath Herring would be great.

The key is of course to not let him on top of you. Then if he does, do not let him get into side control or mount. Big guys are a 1000 times bigger in these position if this makes sense.

Top HW however can still scramble and get up from these positions (see Mir, Nog, Couture).

I know he could, but every time I have seen him fight he tries to brawl. I haven't seen much of his Pride days though. That first fight he had in the UFC he got all pissy cause the guy took him down and wrestled a decision from him the entire fight.

Does anyone find it funny that Dana appears to be fan of Kimbo now? He was taking up for him.

Dana is a fan of the money Kimbo is going to put in his pocket. I do think it would probably be hard to dislike Kimbo if you were around him for a little while though. Its just easy for the fans because of the youtube stuff.
