Being an MMA fan I'm interested to see this card. Looks pretty good, and FREE.... I doubt I would pay to see Kimbo/Ken Shamrock fight..





KEVIN "KIMBO SLICE" FERGUSON (3-0) VS. SETH PETRUZELLI (9-4)

Round 1 - Petruzelli tries an early knee and then drops Slice with a right to the chin. Petruzelli immediately goes in for the kill and blasts the staggered heavyweight with a barrage of punches. Slice rolls to his back, and the onslaught continues. The referee moves in for the potential stoppage, and after the punches continue raining down, the bout is quickly halted. Petruzelli has stunned and silenced this Florida crowd with a remarkable performance. Seth Petruzelli def. Kevin "Kimbo Slice" Ferguson via TKO -- Round 1, 0:14.

Elite is feeding Kimbo cans, primarily because he is their big draw. If they just mixed up the card and put him against Arlovski, he'd get his butt whooped. Shamrock's best days are over 10 years behind him, this is just a stupid matchup. I predict KO in the first minute.

I'm more interested in seeing Andrei Arlovski fight :D

Agreed.

Kimbo and Brock Lesnar would be something i'd love to see though. :headbang:

Brock Lesnar would probably destroy him. It's be interesting to see the two heavyweight celebrities go head-to-head.

reminds me of what they constantly do for wrestling, give you a little teaser on the free channel then switch up stuff to a PPV. Did they give a reason for not fighting? I just saw the schedule and then turned the channel.

Edit** Updated OP with Fight Results. All in all it was a pretty good show. at least Gina Carano kicked ***..... Just another excuse to post her pic :D

I have just watched these videos:

* Kevin “Kimbo Slice” Ferguson vs. SETH PETRUZELLI
* Andrei Arlovski vs. Roy Nelson
* Gina Carano vs. Kelly Kobold

Not quite what i was expecting from kimbo. Since he was used to street fight, i though he had a good change to win. Let's be honest, Roy Nelson didn't have a chance in hell.

I didn't even know there was women fighting. It was a bit dull, but that last 10 seconds had nice contact. Just shows how late i am in the news.
