    Okay, just asking.. It just seems so basic. It's like calling my bed (body layer) or some crap.

      Yeah, put it is a car park.

      Escalators used to be called moving stairs.

      We should call it as we see it. Life isn't a crossword.

          Kimbo Slice is a gimmick. Nothing more.

            Kimbo is a circus act

            Kimbo Slice is more of a joke than anything. Sad to see Slice getting any publicity for anything. Slice needs a nice car washing job.

              BoxingScene does this frequently. They run a press release written by a promoter or publicist that usually exaggerates or even boldly lies about their respective fighter(s). I remember a couple years back there was one about James Toney and it stated that he was a former hw champion.

              As to the thread topic, I tried to support Kimbo when he first went pro a couple years ago because I thought he deserved a chance to prove himself. However I stopped supporting him after watching several of his fights where his opponents took blatant dives.

                he is a circus act but I'm not going to hate on him. He's trying to make a living.

                  Kimbo slice is a circus act. They ought to have him wrestle a bear in a clown costume who has no teeth and claws or something while that loud circus music plays in the background. Pay him like 100 bucks and all you can eat funnel cake.

                    Wow, we live in a world full of ignorant people, dominated by the media. Kimbo a sensation? No wonder we still believe Coca-Cola is great. Damn.

                      I don't fault him for trying to make living as well, but I am disappointed that some of his opponents have taken blatant dives.
