Su****ious moment during 2nd round of Kimbo Fight!

[MikeBrew328]

Did anybody see when Kimbo was getting choked out for a minute or so, and then all of a sudden the camera changed to a very long shot for about 3-4 seconds, and Kimbo was magically out of the choke? It looked su****ious because Kimbo's opponent was talking a lot to the referee during this....

[Mr. Ryan]

I thought I saw him tap out during the first round when he was getting choked against the cage.

I thought I saw him tap out during the first round when he was getting choked against the cage.

nah he was telling the ref he was okay, so the ref didnt stop the fight.

And that zoom out was long after Kimbo broke out i believe

[GattiFan]

He tapped.

Or...waved his hands in a very "tappish" manner towards the ref.

And then took 543 unanswered elbows to the face and head while having his arms pinned against the cage and under his opponents knee.

They must have been told DO NOT STOP THIS FIGHT...

Until of course..

you have a totally obvious way to stop it in Kimbo's favor.

I'll be honest...

I thought kimbo would walk through this guy.

And...he got exposed.

Shamefull of the Network.

Total shame.

[Dorian]

and why did the ref make thompson stand up, when he was in the side control, you cannot stand them up if they are in a mount, side control even if they are not throwing punches

Just because Kimbo was taking a beating

[Motofan]

That "fight" was the fakest thing I have ever seen. Either they are both the slowest guys ever who pull their punches so they dont hurt the other guy, or that was faked like WWF. Not a real fight. Ive seen more blood in the WWF, so dont tell me that makes it real. I also couldnt stand the announcers talking about Kimbo like they were watching there kids play Baseball or something. I have never seen anything so pathetic in my life. "With a 2-0 record...!!!'

I'm more worried about the scorecards...

Just got a call from BE editor in chief Luke Thomas in Newark at the Elite SC event.
Luke got his hands on the judges scorecards and here's how they had it scored:

All three judges scored the first round 10-9 for James Thompson.

But in the 2nd round it got weird as Bittencourt scored it 10-9 Thompson, Crosby scored it 10-8 Thompson and Colon gave it to Kimbo, 10-9.

Something rotten in Newark ladies and gentlemen.

Yeah I was wondering what the scorecard's would be at the end. Because I felt Thompson was going to get robbed. How could anybody give the second round to Kimbo, I could see maybe the first, but not the second. Thompson's ear was ****ed up, but that stoppage seemed questionable. Kimbo didn't have much left in the tank.

Considering its Kimbo's third fight and we've never seen him on the ground he was quite impressive reversing and getting up many times on the ground. The ref didn't stop the fight from Thompson's elbows because they weren't significant enough along with the fact that Kimbo seemed o.k.
