Kimbo Slice‘s pro-boxing debut last night in Oklahoma ended in highlight-reel fashion, as the former bare-knuckle YouTube brawler/MMA fighter turned out James Wade‘s lights with a crushing right uppercut, sending him through the bottom rope just 10 seconds into the match. Check out the video above for two different angles of the finish; as you can see, it took a long time for Wade to regain his senses.
Ariel Helwani passes along the word that Kimbo’s next match is scheduled for October 15th, possibly on the undercard of Bernard Hopkins vs. Chad Dawson. Can Kevin Ferguson really be an injection into boxing’s heavyweight division?


I’m not sure if this was fixed or not, but it sure didn’t look like a big knock out punch to me. So who knows, only James Wade. Upper cuts can and do catch you off guard so anything is possible. I am a kimbo Slice fan though, and I think he is and was a real tough guy. May his reputation had something to do with Wade’s early nap. Since Kimbo doesn’t have to worry about his knees being taken out from under him, he may do a decent job, time will tell. Join us at http://www.nvnewswire.com for more sports news.
