Lashley seems to be doing what Kimbo was doing in fighting big names, a lot of them past their prime or if they ever had a prime. It's smart in the name recognition that it builds but I doubt that it'll build the type of readiness that he'll need for a real big name opponent in their prime.

Don Frye by quick 1,2...then pulling out a rocket launcher right before lashley pulls out a hidden uzi...blows lashley up with the ring..then escapes on a speed boat

Wouldn't it be better for Lashley to build a skillset before beginnning a regular diet of top competitors? Also, Frye is the man for giving Lashley this opportunity. Frye is a legend with nothing more to prove, but Lashley needs this fight to develop.
Right on man....but I thinks its just the anticipation behind him and the fact that he is being groomed to be a contender. I dont want to see him risk his record and a chance at the big league just because the fans are rushing him. Let him get about 8 fights under his belt before he takes on anyone in the top 20.
