to those who say kimbo is overhyped, think about it from a biz perspective, if your biggest draw was a 30 year old with on 3 fights, 2 professional but he gets millions of ppl watching him across the world, you wouldnt put him in the main event? i mean really think intelligently for a second, he is the biggest star in mma period, theres no debating that no matter how hard you try, thats a fact, and plus wat rhymeister saying mma fighters dont wear shoes when they fight, think about it like this rappers have sneakers that have sold more than real basketball players, so i doubt whether he wears sneakers when he fights is gonna have anything to do with sales.

Yea Undertaker used the gogopalata as a secondary finisher, and also hes been using the triangle choke for years. But Bobby considering that he has a background in kickboxing and wrestling, whether amateur or pro, could do some things, he's said he doesn't want to be in the UFC just wants to follow a dream, and considering he doesn't need the money he could definitely done that.

I feel what the UFC is doing is counterproductive to what they claim being their top priority being to grow the sport. Putting programming on the exact time of EliteXC's even is not for the good of the sport. A better and helpful idea is to maybe show some MMA before the EliteXC programming comes on CBS. But hey its a good UFC move not a good MMA move.

Yea, you say that like Nike has never embraced a controversial figure willingly. If anything Nike could greatly benefit from aligning themselves with him.
