Are you saying that Kimbo should have just came in and fought the top fighters in MMA to start? I don't think so. Every fighter needs to work his way up and fight "tomato cans." In fact I don't believe Kimbo should have fought anybody worthwhile until he had at least 10 fights and more preparation, not even a washed up legend like Shamrock. Kimbo is a tough brawler, but not a MMA fighter...yet.<!--QuoteEnd</div><!--QuoteEEndNow; when did I say that? I'm not blaming anything on Kimbo; as it's not like he has been hand picking his opponents. He fights anyone Elite XC puts in front of him and I respect him from that. He has also been extremely soft spoken and knows that he has a long way to go especially after his controversial fight with Thompson. What pisses me off is the promotion, and them acting like Kimbo is an MMA God. If you were watching the telecast last night; just hearing the announcers call the fight was hysterical. "Oh my god, this is the upset of the century." Gimme a break.
