Kimbo/Nelson are you f***ing kidding me, Im positive this is exactly what Dana wanted because Im honestly sure Nelson brought in as insurance to make sure Kimbo didn't win.

He didn't, that's the funny part. I find that judging quite ridiculous. lol, yourmom, you really think dude dominated that fight? He may have won the second, but no way he even came close to winning the first round. He literally only landed 2 leg kicks. Even if he DID win round 1, it wouldn't be in dominating fashion.

People I'm saying it now, if Kimbo can get to the second round with Roy, it's ANYONE'S game in that fight. Roy's gas tank is atrocious.

..... Kimbo Vs. Roy Nelson? I mean wtf, they're giving Kimbo the best and most experienced guy of the whole season? Damn.... Good luck.

It does happen to be a REALITY show, bro.

Because he got dominated in both rounds and did nothing to hurt james.

This is crazy though, the biggest most meaningful fight is coming on only the 3rd episode. I can see roy taking it.
He did not get dominated in anyway in the first round. Second round goes to James.

The judging should have called for 3rd round.

Wow, third show and Kimbo is in. I expected Dana to tell the coaches not to bring him until the end. That ending to the show got me a little excited about next week. Lets go Kimbo! I know most don't like the man, but he does have a chance against the more experienced fighter. You never know for sure who will win In the cage. I hope kimbo takes this. I like his stand up but if Roy connects with a shot, it's lights out Mr. Slice.

Agreed, its going to be a stand up war for sure unless Roy Nelson decides to do the smart things and take it to the ground. Just lay that big belly on Kimbo :(

I'm pulling for Kimbo though for sure :thumbsup:

Wes is a very massive man and when you have that much mass, even if you worked hard... You're going to gas fast, i still have no idea how Brock doesn't suck wind. Now since I'm a wrestler I'm very biased towards wrestling as a style lol but with the way I see some of these people. How easily they went down last week and how easily Wes took him down tonight. I can see the guy from last week doing very well being a wrestler and having some ground control. TBH I think many, many, many people out there who are the new fans, have no idea who Roy is and just sees some fat guy for Kimbo to maul. IMO Roy kills him but kimbo may have a chance if it goes into the second round. These ratings are probably going through the roof and it just makes me think, why didn't dana try for a little more hype incase kimbo's gone. (Bobby lashley could have been perfect for this season bringing in some of the pro wrestling audience and he would have done probably really well)

I wonder how they're going to do next season to attempt to follow this hype.
 
#122 ·
I'm surprised to see this fight come together. I have to pick Roy on this one as much as I'd like to see Kimbo get such a big win under his belt. I think the ratings are gonna take a pretty big hit though if Kimbo loses. Probably would have been better for Dana if Kimbo's fight came up later in the the season or if he was given less dangerous competition so early on.

Rampage is a bad coach. He picked the first fights. He even said in tonight's episode that he knows that Rashad is going to pick a wrestler or jui jitsu guy to fight Kimbo. Why didn't he just match Kimbo up with someone he thought Kimbo could beat when he was picking the fights? Seems like the best way to try to get Kimbo to the next round.

this season is gonna be gas out 1st round central.... Hopefully sims threw everyone a bone, and Kimbo KO's big country, and everyone who dares step in the ring with such a mma legend.

So far its been meh fighters. Wasnt that sweeney dude Rashad's first pick? I mean comeon , i surely wasnt impressed with him. I hope people pick up there cardio up a bit. I know there heavies and all , but comeone , it's 2 rounds, they should have at least some sort of cardio. They should be throwing everything they have at each other , not stand around a good portion of the round with there hands on there hips this aint dancing with the stars (rampage's dude). Hoping next week is a good one, Kimbo will look to throw some bombs , and Roy is looking at kimbo like he's a big juicy hamburger.
