| I think it's at a point where Kimbo draws fans which is good, but he looks so bad that there might be some residual negative effect carried with it. Frankly, the guy has as an unexceptional of an MMA career as there is, regardless of how many fights he has. His celebrity in the UFC's situation is about used up. His profitability took a substantial enough hit that losing him is no biggie. | |

| Why did Kimbo get cut? Why did Kimbo get cut? Oh I know! Because everyone saw his weakness and more important, his gas tank. | |

Because he should have never been hired in the first place. The only reason the used him was to try and get a broader audience watching the sport. | |

| Look I know Kimbo sucks, but he was used and the fact that he was 1-1 in the UFC and was all over the 113 commercial makes me think he got the raw end of the deal. I have always been against him and still think Seth beating him was one of the best MMA moments.
That said, I am sorry for being an asshole last nite Ludo. My back was hurting like hell from work, Machida is not the champ, and I drank five beers. It all made me Badbeastcardinal12. I am still gonna throw jokes, but I shouldn't have been so aggressive towards you. | |

No way in hell Kimbo got a raw deal. He did not deserve to be there in the first place. The guy sucks , has no MMA skills and even said after this fight he needs to take his training a little more serious. This tells us he was thinking Meat Head would punk out and be scared so why train hard. If you ask me Kimbo made out just fine with his little pay day from DW , he should be thankful he got it in the first place. BA BYE Bimbo ! | |

| He got 25k for the Alexander fight and you have to figure he got 25k for this fight. So 50k from December 5th till now, not bad. | |

| He didn't look terrible at first, just once he got mounted. I think they could have found fights for him. | |

| That would have been perfect actually. The UFC could have thrown him into their legends division too, and got him superfights with Toney, Couture, Franklin and Liddell.
But I guess I commend the UFC for toning down on the freakshows. | |

| Yeah the eye gouging may have also played a part. After the first round his cornerman actually said to him "we may not get away with gouging the eye again". | |

| Headhunter and Toney would have been great fights to see against Kimbo. Stilll think they did him wrong. I hope SF picks up him and Buentello so I can see someone get KO'd. | |

Because he should have never been hired in the first place. The only reason the used him was to try and get a broader audience watching the sport. That was the only reason and mission accomplished. To be real the next fight for meat he will get owned and it just shows where kimbo really is. Kimbo cant make 205 and no reason too and he is too small at hw. Like dana said he did better than expected. | |
