I dont think Kimbo is a hardcore bad guy. When he fights, he always recognizes when his opponent has had enough. He seems to control his excitement well too. IT doesn't surprise me that he's training hard.

I find the whole thing bizarre. If this guy wants to fight MMA then why isn't he? So much attention around a street fighter who was beaten by Sean Gannon who got owned in his own MMA debut seems goofy.

Nice link.. I have liked Kimbo from the first time I saw him. I'm glad to hear that he's a good person when it's not "go time". War Kimbo!

Of course they're gonna say good things about Kimbo if they're training him. I don't doubt that he's a decent athlete and all that stuff but about the celebrity status among the fans wtf does that have to do w/ anything? I mean maybe it's just me but I don't give a shit.

All we're gonna see is a blank Tank Abbott w/ some class apparently vs. a boxer who's past his prime... it's no wonder why people think shit of MMA.

As long as he puts in the necessary time and effort and takes MMA serioulsy I have no problems with the guy.

Perhaps it's just me who recognizes this, but the opinion of two people who know Kimbo is going to mean more to me than the opinion of a bunch of internet morons who are completely outside of the situation.

This sheds new light on Kimbo to say the least. I must admit that I thought of Kimbo as a thug before this; if it's true that is.

He gets a bad rep for being a porn star bodyguard.




We would ALL take that same job and party with the hoes too!

My ego was just boosted when I read none of Bas's fighters like to actually do the Bas Rutten MMA Workout.

I have it and its tough. Real tough.
