    Seth's only weakness is advanced submissions.

    This will be Kimbo's greatest test,

    As I said before, the only way you're going to stop Seth is if you pull a real good submission on him. Dude's got a chin too.
    This was an hour before the event started.

But the truth is, MMA fighters don't get as much lethal blows to the head and body on a sustained period as boxers do, to them, one flimsy tap and its over. I won't even be surprised if somebody got rich in MMA today.

        He didn't HAVE any cred, it was all hype.

            And everyone in MMA got the same idea as yours? That KIMBO's only way to win over Seth is to submit him? I doubt that. Would you know what the odds are for this fight?

                I just wanna see the ratings next time for this CBS experiment with MMA. Last time I heard they got about 6 million houses to watch, what will they get 250k to watch the great superstar Gina Carao(not sure the spelling). Honestly, CBS did go the right way with this trying to hype up a power punching guy but MMA to the regular public wont click because no one dominates. I wonder what the ratings would be if boxing were to put on some real good punchers and make them look good. Put Lopez and Pavlik on a bunch of ABC cards and let people follow them, bet it does really good after a show or two.

                  Yeah, pretty much, because regular MMA fans know who Seth is.

                  Yes, most of his losses came by way of submission. The other loss was by Dec. His opponent was a better wrestler. But he was never knocked out in ny of his MMA or Kickboxing matches.

                  If there were odds for the fight, Seth would have been the dog in a bad way. Mostly because Vegas bookies don't follow.

                  Someone would have made a killing.

                    Mercer had help but blew it off.

                    Tank gets beat up for money

                    And The ref stopped the James Thompson fight because the NJSCB got ****ing squemish about James ear.

                      Kimbo was not good enough for the UFC he has only been training for a couple of years that is no where near enough training to fight anybody even average
