Kimbo Slice

This October 4th at the 3rd EliteXC on CBS ratings machine Kimbo Slice will step into the cage to face 44-year-old Ken Shamrock.

For some reason the EliteXC matchmaking team still feel the need to put Kimbo up against some soft opponents. Ken Shamrock has gone four years now without winning a fight. Why did the EliteXC not put Kimbo up against someone like Brett Rogers who has wanted to fight Kimbo since the EliteXC network debut. Or how about Sean Gannon who has been the only man to defeat Kimbo Slice in their Youtube.com brawl.

Ken Shamrocks most recent fight was at Cage Rage 25 where he lost to Robert “Buzz” Berry by a knockout. So if Shamrock is getting knocked out by Berry what sort of an advantage does this give Kimbo Slice? A big one. Infact the only way Shamrock would have a chance defeating Kimbo would be a submission. The submission should be highly unlikely though after Kimbo’s dismal performance against James Thompson he has probably been spending more time on his ground game.

The fight will be this October 4th on CBS Saturday Night Fights.
