The ref let it go obviously. Kimbo looked pissed, you don't take away any time from his dealing of whoop ass.

I thought you were talking about the ton of rabbit punches he hit Tank with while he was laying face down on the canvas.

If they took away a point from Brock for doing the same thing, to a much lesser extent, they should've taken Kimbo around the corner and shot him.

I have no doubt that he would've won anyway (excellently selected opponent, plus Kimbo is obviously working hard on developing some actual talent), but Tank looked absolutely ****ed when he got back up from that assault.

The first time Kimbo fights a fighter that is not way over the hill, he's going to be in deep, deep shit. He better be working on a plan B. if he can't land immediately.

He could have been deducted some points for the behind the head shots and also something could have been done with him throwing out the mouthpiece. You know though that EliteXC let it just go by because they want to hype Kimbo as this tough and badass guy and him throwing his mouthpiece out of the ring helped for that image. Plus the crowd went wild when he did it, so it obviously worked. Kimbo is all hype at this point and EliteXC is benefiting from it. Know you have to think when will UFC be calling?

I would of loved to see Tank knock all his teeth out after Kimbo threw the piece.

It was a mouthpiece. That's why the ref stopped the action.

If you look at the video again of Lesner's fight you will see he threw more punches to the back of the head then you think he did.

Also Kimbo wasn't gonna be DQed because the fight was never going to last to the end of the first round
