kimbo seems very different to the person I was expecting him to be. Very humble, and seemingly willing to learn. I expected him to be really big headed and egotistical, espically with the show pretty much built around him, but he wasnt at all. Now he has to learn to improve his ground game or he is going to get beaten every match.

Yes seems like he knows he could be a target in the House and all alone with 15 guys after him. After the 1st fight it did not look like either of those 2 guys would be a threat to Kimbo however i am not sure if he will be able to defend those wrestling skills of guys in the house. I would rather see a stand up fight of any kind especially in the heavy weight class it looks like Kimbo maybe fighting on Episode 2 airing Wednesday September 23, 2009 but not 100% sure yet.

oh without doubt he has a bullseye on his back. All those guys know who he is, what he did as a street fighter and his reputation. His stand-up is obviously great, but anyone with any wrestling or BJJ skills will just take him down and ground and pound him to a TKO. He could be a good fighter, as long as rampage improves his groundgame. If anyone tries to standup with him though, I think he would win.

Well After seeing the 2nd i would say boarder line boring and slow fight in season 10 , Episode 3 should pick up the pace a notch in the excitement category with Kimbo Slice being chose by Rashad Evans to fight his fighter Roy Nelson. I could see Kimbo taking this fight if there is a lot of stand up going on and his cardiovascular training is better than the first 2 guys that seemed to lack in that area....

Episode 3 is set to air Sept 30, 2009 10pm Eastern on Spike

I dont know. Roy Nelson hasnt got the greatest body and fitness levels, but he is a former World Heavyweight Champion in the IFL, and has a record of 13 wins and 4 losses. In my opinion he is one of the favorates to win the show based on his background and experience. Interesting pick, should be a very good match and I cant wait to see it.

Default Kimbo Slice vs Roy Nelson Results

Well I would have to say we were all looking forward to this fight and it was very nice that it was free on spike tv. For those that did not watch it yet i am not sure if its even worth catching the replay on. Round 1 took a few minutes to actually get going Kimbo hit Nelson with a few shots to the face and you could tell Nelson wanted no part of his stand up game. At that point he finally after about 1.30 seconds tied up with kimbo tripped him up and litterally landed his over sized body on slice who hates the ground game and we are with him on that. I was very suprised this was not stood back up several times we believe if this was a $49.99 pay per view on TV that would have happenend. Round 1 ends up with Nelson laying on top of Slice hitting him in the top of th head with shots your grandma could throw harder.

Round 2: Kimbo comes out and lands again on Nelsons face daizing him It looked for a few seconds as everyone knows his power. Kimbo through a knee while moving backwards and Nelson fell on top of him almost Kimbo doing it to himself at that point he then again layed on him and hit him with I would say the weakest baby shots to the head you would ever see in any weight class. Even Dana White commented on the terrible performance of Nelson. This fight was stopped almost due to Kimbo just being under him and not being able to toss him off. Kimbo was not daized nor hurt at any time just wanted to fight a guy that wanted to lay on him. I do not believe those shots on the ground could have hurt anyone fighter or not just Kimbo could not respond due to how Nelson had his armed pinned down.

I hope Kimbo returns stronger maybe next week being a replacement as for Nelson i would say improve or no one will pay to see that kind of fight at least we wouldnt over here and there was about 10 of us who have all watched this since day 1 in 1993 UFC 1. Everyone says Nelson is great however how is he going to last a minute with Brock Lesnar fighting like that he got lucky he won on the show.

I agree, without Kimbo in this season this bunch of heavy weight fighters i do not see standing a chance against the top guys with the condition most are in.

Hopefully kimbo comes back and knocks a guy out.
