Did anyone else see this?

Looks a bit shady to me the way the other guy was winning on points but then went down from such a weak punch.

what do you think?






P.S, apologies if this is posted elsewhere, I searched but couldn't see it.

Was Green really winning on points? I just watched with no sound and it looked like Kimbo landed more to me.

Also, I think that uppercut hit the button perfectly. Kimbo hits hard.


I can't even articulate why, but I'm a big kimbo fan.

With better coaching and management.... he would have gone further in MMA.

This, Green took the fight on like a week notice.

Kimbo is the future of boxing - mark my words :p


I share the popular opinion though because I think he would have had more success knocking out pro MMA guys in the "minor leagues" than he ever will in pro boxing.
Kimbo's knees are absolutely shot, any kick or TD and he's pretty much f*cked.....his hands are the best thing about him so boxing really should've been the first choice IMO.

Also I know it's mostly jokes but Kimbo is gonna get f*cked up hard when he fights anyone even semi legit....his 4 fights were against 2 debut "pro's", a cruiserweight and a MMA middleweight (Green).

I watched the fight and I thought Kimbo was winning as well. The knock out didn't seem suspect to me either. It looks like Green was hurt and tired and got caught with a short uppercut to me.

I've seen fishier but that was odd. Kimbo looked really tired (as usual) and landed some decent shots on Green that didn't seem to bother Green at all and then a short uppercut completely KTFO Green? It happens but it does make me wonder. We know Kimbo has been involved in rigged stuff before.

Kimbo's boxing skills are about the same as all those dudes that got fed to ButterBean around his time as the "King of the Four Rounders". Now, that is probably about where they should be at this point in his career, but he is old as hell to start making his way through 20 or so tomato cans. By the time he is ready for any decent competition, his body is going to be shot. The guy is an interesting figure and seems like a legit nice guy, buy his time in this sport will not be long.

I dont think hes gonna take the route of a young time boxer....he is probably gonna take 10-12 of these pro debut/undersized guys and then fight someone with some good name recognition to make a decent payday.

I wish he would of stuck with mma, he seemed to of progressed really well, but I guess the mitrione fight fucked his legs up a little too much. I think if he had maybe 4 more fights out of the ufc, he could at least started to make a name for himself with all the hardcore fans and who knows, maybe he could of come back, probably not but his chances were better there than they are in boxing. Isn't he nearing 40 right now?
Yeah his knees are absolutely shot, anyone who can throw a decent leg kick or shoot for a good TD would beat him easily....I never understood why he didn't go straight to boxing as that was his only real skill set when he first came to the game.
