History will be made on June 23rd, 2007 at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City NJ, as the former Heavyweight world champion 'Merciless' Ray Mercer steps into the Mixed Martial Arts cage at CFFC 5, against Internet star and streetfighting champion, Kimbo Slice. Who will be the last man standing? [details (http://www.boxingscene.com/mma/?m=show&id=770)]

The article says, "Mercer, the US Olympic Gold medalist in 1988 and former WBO World Heavyweight Champion is coming off a four-win streak to step up to the CFFC Cage as the greatest boxer ever to enter MMA."

Im under the impression Mercer`s last fight was his loss to Briggs, so this 4 win streak the article says he is comig off is bogus, he had 4 wins before that loss which they chose to ignore!

Ray Mercer is going to take slice's head off, cant wait to see this.

I'd put my money on Mercer, but if it goes to the ground it's anyone's fight. Kimbo also gassed out bad when he fought Sean Gannon.

Kimbo by armbar…

^^^^^^^ What he said.

I'm just anxious to see what Mercer can do with the little gloves on.

I would not say he gassed as they went toe to toe for 10 mins

He ran out gas and Gannon still had plenty left.

im willing to bet good money kimbo will come into this fight with excellent conditioning to accompony that strong punching power, after all , this could eventually become a 3 fight saga that will be remembered for years.. "PROVEN BOXER VS. INTERNET PHENOMENON"

Kimbo hasn't fought anybody like Mercer. If Sean Gannon could give Kimbo a tough time he will be no match againt Mercer. I say Mercer KO rd2.

Has anyone went to a sportsbook and checked the odds on this fight? I bet Mercer is a big favorite.

Then maybe u should bet on Kimbo, another Serra :p

I've seen Kimbo fight and he is a animal:o lack of cardio though but if he were to work on that and have good takedown defense aint nobody gon stop him. He also has a good chin and knockout power, should be interesting what happens with this one, Ima go with Kimbo.

his chin is bad, he went down fro a jab by bouncer and gannon, most of the guys he fights cant punch, the shots he gave free to that guy he tok because he braced for them, the guy couldnt punch, he was scared had no footing.

he seemed builed and i heard that other guy say "I slipped" after he hit Kimbo...The guy was pretty build and was probably the baddest man on the block until Kimbo came...
The new D-BO..."So where my 40 homie"?????????????

like i said ,before, kimbo was horribly conditioned for that fight. coming into this fight, he will be in much better shape, therefore , will be more aware and have a better defense. mabe not chin though.
