oh no, kimbos trained for a whole 2 weeks. i wonder if he trained that long when he fought afropuff LOL
sure you can learn shit in 2 weeks but this is kimbos first professional fight, how will he stand up under the pressure? how ingrained are the things he learned in that 2 weeks? has he trained enough to the point that his actions will be like natural reflexes? fuck no. hes gonna come in swinging wildly and that 2 weeks of training is going out the window. and for someone whos basically a rookie in the professional training/fighting game , 2 weeks isnt shit no matter who he trains with.
mercer by vicious brutal knockout
Two weeks of training doesnt mean shit for a guy who is raw off the streets. With that said I dont even know if Mercer is training or taking this seriously so I dont know whos going to win.
wow omg seriously you guys KEEP DUCKING MY POSTS.
WHAT THE FUCK IS MERCER DOING? YOU DON'T FUCKING KNOW SO WHY BET ON MERCER?
2 weeks training with Bas doesnt mean as much as you seem to think.
Would 2 weeks with Emmanuel Steward make Audley Harisson any better?
Its too little to mean much in this fight.
KIMBO shouldnt be allowed to have that large a beard.
Isnt a very big advantage, but it IS an advantage
For real, although I suspect that Mercer, even at his age and regardless of Kimbo's beard, is going to knock him out. I hope Ray doesn't injure him permanently. This will be a first seeing Kimbo fight without his pr0n posse jumping in or that cameraman saying such asinine things.
mercer is a tough mother fucker..he beat lennox lewis and he beat alot of giants hes a smaller heavyweight ... with small gloves that jab is going to be hell to get through
He didn't beat Lewis, man. Only McCall and Rahman beat Lewis.
feeding off a Paul above, Mercer's best days are behind him...we only hold onto his bouts of over a decade ago
plus when you look closely, he appears quite "stomachy"
but one cannot deny his heart, old school skills and remaining talent...

Those fights with Lewis and Holyfield were 11 and 12 years ago though; Mercer looked pretty shot against Klitschko in 2002 although he did give Klitschko a taste of what he used to have.
Having said that, he should still have too much for this fellow, who's not used to fighting guys with Mercer's talent.
