Kimbo Slice ESPN magazine’>
(The cover of ESPN: The Magazine’s new issue.)
“I’m a streetfighter and I love streetfighters. It’s great to have other leagues. UFC can’t have everyone. There’s thousands of fighters out there and they need a chance to make a living. Me, I’m a Kimbo Slice fan. I like fighting. I see where Dana is coming from and I respect his opinion, but I like streetfighting.” — B.J. Penn
“The amount of talent and fights we put on are second to none. Think about it, the CBS fight that they are coming up with, who gives a crap about Kimbo Slice? This guy can’t fight MMA. You know what would happen if he fought in the UFC? I’d put him in against BJ Penn and (Slice) would get annihilated. The guy he is fighting, James Thompson, might get knocked out before he gets into the cage. Kimbo has no credibility at all in MMA. … I am telling you, BJ Penn would beat him.” — Dana White
“I still consider myself a baby at this game…Those guys probably know how to run circles around me, but I can bang with the best. And I’m not a one-dimensional fighter anymore. I used to have just a hammer. But now I’ve got a hammer, a tape measure, a screwdriver, a glue gun. Now I’ve got some tools in the belt.” — Kimbo Slice

Best line ever.
Isnt it amazing how 2 months of watching that old slapper Rutten's videos can do for wonders for someones skills.
Slice is still a one dimensional freak show... but now with 2 months of MMA training.
Wow! Im sure that guys who have been doing martial arts like BJJ for years are trembling now that Slice is a 'complete fighter'.
Bring Bob Sapp home!!!
By the time Elite & CBS are done with KIMBO.....Dana won't be able to afford him...
If he does Pony up with the check-book, it will be a nice payday for Kimbo. But if he pays Kimbo what he would be worth at that point, what's that say to his fighters that are already locked into those measly Zuffa contracts...?
Regardless of what happens with Elite, Affliction, Dream etc.....These new MMA groups hitting the primetime will increase our exposure and without a doubt raise our purses and salaries. Eventually Dana and his pasta pals will have to pay fighters what they are worth...
Funniest thing I've read in weeks..
Seriously though, a glue gun? LOL
everybody seems to forget that kimbo isnt trying to say he can walk into the ufc and whoop ass. he admits he is young to the game of MMA.
Kimbo's fights have always been entertaining, whether they were on the street or in a cage... and a lesnar/slice fight would be amazing
Kimbo will have 3 fights ( I think) after the May 31 CBS show, time enough for Kimbo to sharpen his skills for the bigs.
"Now watch closely as I glue my chest hair to my beard, *grunt grunt grunt*
I saw his vids online. He got asked to do MMA, well to me it was like a boxer was asked to do MMA. Got's a punchers chance, but put up against a submission guy, that is the real test. We will wait and see what happens.
Kimbo is going to break a glass jaw on May 31st.
Kimbo round 1, KO/TKO due to strikes to the jaw, 45 seconds in.
One thing to think about, the more kimbo's name is being said, the bigger the guy is going to be for CBS.
a fuking GLUE GUN????????
i now believe my 98 year old neighbor Maynard can kick Kimbo's ass.
to be honest...i bet Maynard's wife Ethyl could kick Kimbo's ass.
a glue gun.
absolutely...fuking...classic.
" know your upset that someone else went primetime before your group of Guidos did, but don’t go away mad…JUST GO AWAY!"
The "primetime" deal you speak of sucks! Many smart people agree with Dana for not taking that same deal.
@Aryan
"BJ is great at his weight classl…Kimbo would crush him in no time..Would love to see kimbo and lesnar though"
I agree that Kimbo Vs. Lesnar is the fight all types of fans would love to see and if Brock loses his next fight we just might!
@OctoTater
YOU LOSE, GOOD DAY SIR. YOU GET NOTHING!
Just cause Kimbo has size its means nothing if you don't have the skills to hit BJ.
BJ fights guys over his class and he does pretty damn great. Hughes, GSP, even Machida he has fought and those guys are some of the best. Kimbo isn't even near there levels yet.
Sure kimbo got a puncher chance but BJ isn't one to be knocked out either.
Gary Shaw states that Kimbo Slice will be changing his name to Kevin "Sore Dick" Ferguson. Because Just like a sore dick, Kimbo can't be beat!
BJ Penn is a World Class MMA fighter....But Cmon, the weight difference is too severe!
Yes It would be the toughest fight Kimbo ever saw, but his shear size & strength would be near impossible for BJ to overcome...
I know your upset that someone else went primetime before your group of Guidos did, but don't go away mad...JUST GO AWAY!
