You have Kimbo who just got TKO'd via an off balanced/one legged jab from his opponent. Then you have Oscar who got KO'd by a belly slap from Bhop. Vote.
That bum was scheduled to fight light heavy weight and still destroyed Kimbo. I heard Andrei Arvloski volunteered to replace Ken Shamrock but Kimbo's team denied.
KImbo's ko from a ballerina jab is probably one of the most pathetic kos ever.
Didnt he beat Mercer because he took Mercer straight to the floor rather then stading there and trade which is the only Gameplan mercer and the world thought kimbo would do?
I didnt see the fight myself just heard he took him down almost straight away
Here's the link to that fight....

I was SO disappointed when Ray lost.
I couldn't have said it better. Plus, how did he EVER beat Ray Mercer?????
Mercer was one of my favorite heavys because of his toughness and chin.
Then, Kimbo seemed to lay down to say "screw you" to CBS.
The "punch" that kocked Kimbo down made the puch that Ali floored Liston with in Lewiston, Maine look like Razor Ruddock's "smash"!
CBS will probably try to hype a rematch to squeeze one more "fight" out of him.
What would Fedor have done to him???

Both Oscar and Bhop were great at the time of the fight, and both Kimbo and his opponent were viewed as "bums" to many people here. I guess that kind've evens it out. In that case, both were ko'd by similar competition.
Apples & Oranges buddy
Kimbo had a hype train behind him with endorsement deals that possibly went down the tube. Him losing is a big deal to the mainstream media.
Oscar losing to BHOp (IMO) was a no brainer. I don't know how many people had Oscar actually winning that fight, but whatever.
Competitively I see where you're coming from, but it's a bit far fetched and irrelevant.
U guys act as if when Oscar when Oscar was KO'd, the entire boxing world wasnt screaming out that he took a dive. That's how pathetic that shot looked.
Yea it was pretty pathetic.
But you look at the circumstances, the fact that was after 9 rounds with a bigger man. Compared to Kimbos 20 seconds, being dropped by a grazing jab.
I think Kimbo by landslide in this one :lol1:
Obviously no comparison. Pretty pointless thread by an Oscar hater I guess.

De La Hoya was up at a weight he was shit at, against an ATG Middleweight, and was TKOd in 9.
Kimbo got pwned inside 1 minute against a no one, and was dropped by a grazing jab.
Yup.

Oscar lost to an ATG fighter
Kimbo lost to a BUM
I didnt ask about the quality of thier opponents. I asked which got knocked out in a more pathetic way. Mayorga was viewed as a bum when he KO'd the pure boxer Vernon Forrest. Does that not make it a valid KO?
