This is Libel you have no proof whatsoever!

Shame. I knew Kimbo was being over rated by elite XC as “the #1 striker in the heavyweight division” but I kind of like the guy in spite of that (and some of the newer “fans” of MMA).

I’m mostly impressed that Seth got a win bonus. Was it in his contract or did they not actually consider that Golden Boy could loose?

^I’d suppose Kimbo could be put under the “glass-jaw” category, relating to recent events.

Seriously though, I wish C.P. compiled a list of all the Kimbo supporters (more like nuthuggers, in some instances) — cause I’m not reading many responses from that demographic.

I wonder how much they paid Ken “Class Chin” Shamrock to stand and trade with Bumbo?

What a crock of sh*t! I knew EliteXC was over-hyping Kimbo but I didn’t think they were actually trying to fix the fights. There should be a FBI investigation into this. I’m serious. The fight was on TV, so that makes it FCC territory. Shaw should do some jail time if what Petruzelli says is true.

Hey big up to Seth Petruzelli! Way to get paid off the shitstorm that is EliteXC. Did the world a favour and got paid doing it.

I actually like Kimbo, in the sense that he got a ridiculous opportunity and made the right moves to get paid for it. As a serious MMA fighter he was a joke but I can respect that he made the most of a megabucks opportunity. For a youtube street fighter he actually had a head on his shoulders for success, even if he probably won’t ever have the talent im sure his promoters somehow thought he could.

EliteXC has given Seth a new nickname: Seth “Big Mouth” Petruzelli

I just read over on yahoo sports that kimbo’s salary for the fight was $500,000. Serves EliteXc right.

“And of course, let’s not get into that bullshit standup from side control in the Arlovski/Nelson match.”

Thank god somebody finally said it.

Mayhem420, I think in PRIDE the deal was: ‘you get X amount of money for fighting Sakuraba and beating him; you get X + Y amount of money if you fight Sakuraba and lose’ – a ‘losing bonus’, if you will. This is a little bit different – more of a ‘stand-up fight’ bonus.

This is pretty shocking. Elite is the lowest.

He should fight in the UFC against the elusive Karate guy?

Are you kidding me?

Seth “The Silver Splatter Back” Petruzzeli would get killed by Lyoto Machida.

Machida would behead him for disgracing Karate.

Listened to the interview – hey, you think they could squeeze in a couple more attention hungry theater kids into that room?

Wow. That video just shows how pathetic that punch was. Not to mention, how weak the finishing shots were. Most missed. Wow. Next time Kimbo gets into the ring with Seth, Kimbo will be peeing down both legs. And Seth looked terrified. I have never seen such a display of wussy punching and then acting like a wussy when getting hit by a wussy punch. That is crazy. I bet people will be lining up in Miami with there money out to hit Kimbo with their short jabs. There will be short jab classes all over the projects in Miami. Hell Seth needs to do a training tape on how to throw a short jab. It will sell like hot cakes in Miama.

Hahaha Kimbo is so shit, I could fight better than his ass…I cant wait to see what Dana White has to say in his next interview when he gets asked about this. The overly hyped gorilla man getting knocked out in the main event in 14 seconds by some guy with pink hair, dont get me wrong i love this Petruzelli guy now, but he said himself hes a part time fighter coming off a year break…on top of that Jared Shaw is shown yelling like a little girl in the backround because his money maker just got flushed down the toilet…now that is true entertainment. I cant wait to see what is next in store for this half ass promotion!!

okay this is really getting ridiculous

lol

I hadn’t seen such a pathetic performance in an MMA fight since Butterbean v. Patrick Smith. This may be worse.

I mentioned this on the other post, Jared Shaw looked super pissed with Petruzelli after the fight.

Now I think it’s obvious that Seth didn’t follow “instructions” and shit all over EliteXc’s parade! I am finding this real damn funny

@Old, Bald and Irish: thanks! I am at work and I wanted to know what he said.
Thats classic…. awesome.

@Miller419: Dude you know Seth already was in the UFC. He was in TUF 2 and lost matches to Matt Hammil and Wilson Gouveia.. Why would Dana want this guy back?
Besides Elite is going to make this guy the next coming of Christ.

I’m sure the queer sausage fest back at his house were celebrating and having multiple orgasms when he won. I can hear one now, “oh man just for that I’m gonna blow him all night and then cook him his favorite for breakfast, a sausage and 2 eggs”

and the rainbow belt means……………

lol what a fucking dumbass. You killed the golden calf, all bet set for at least one more decent payday before everyone realizes you’re still the POS UFC-washout we all remember you as and you go on the radio and give a play-by-play on how you took money to go along with them trying to set the fight? hahahah I’m sure they’ll be really anxious to put your ass back in a prime-time bout.

I am hoping that Dana White gets this guy. I could see him putting him in there with other Karate guy who is “elusive” whats his name… Anyway that would be a pretty cool fight and maybe it would be finished. Then Dana could laugh all the way to the bank when he sent Seth home and he would be worth nothing. Not that I am a UFC nuthugger but I cant stand EXC. I was excited for Affliction but after they signed with $kala I was heartbroken. Maybe another promotion will come along that can actually compete. I have made my case for an AFC NFC type MMA deal with another promotion and UFC with a year end “super bowl” championship set of matches with all of the weight classes respectivley.

I’d love to know that the hell the athletic commissions think of this – I believe EliteXC crossed the line with this shit and somebody needs to be hung (perhaps a Shaw?) for this. It’s shit like this that will stop the sport from growing and gaining more mainstream acceptance. Right now I don’t trust anything that happens at an EliteXC event, and I can’t be alone.

And of course, let’s not get into that bullshit standup from side control in the Arlovski/Nelson match.

Whoa… EVERYBODY needs to click the link for that radio interview with Seth Petruzelli.

On “screamin and running in circles for 15 minutes”

Seth Petruzelli: “As soon, as soon as the, the head athletic comissioner stopped me, he’s like, “You gotta calm down! The crowds getting too crazy!”, the first thing outta my, my mouth was “I gotta get outta here. I don’t wanna get shot!”

How did that punch knock out kimbo. How? must’ve had his brain up against the side of his skull or something…BUT HOW

Hahaha… this does not surprise me at all.
Isnt this the same thing that Pride used to do? Pay the guy to stand and trade with a person so they could see a “Spectacular” KO? I seem to recall an interview with Rampage where he stated that. That and now Tito might be signing a deal….
I mean with no big name to promote they almost HAVE to sign him to have someone to make the new Poster Boy….
Also whats with now calling Seth Rocky? Dude Rocky beat Apollo who was a Champ.
Not a Chump….. this was also not the biggest win in MMA history.
This was just a bad event…. bad promotion…. just bad.

I really hope Seth Petrucelli makes his money on the rematch. He has all the bargaining power in his hands. Elite XC and all their broadcast television-referee f*ckery needs him more than he needs them. He should be able to go to any other organization.

$100,000 buys a lot of KY…

Is that legal or whatever? “they gave me money to stand and trade with him.” WTF? I hope he’s not serious. This is a damn joke. I’m glad it blew up in EXC’s face.

Lol! This just keeps getting better! EXC is a joke.
