anyone have though about kimbo vs james thompson…. lol anohter cruise victory for kimbo

Comment by bvrasp about 7 months, 3 weeks ago

well Patrick, Thompson may not be the best fighter in the world, but he has some SERIOUS fight experience.

Hes a UFC and Pride veteran with wins over guys like, Dan Severn, Giant Silva, Don Frye and Yoshida.

Hes got losses from Aleks Emelianenko, Fujita and Butterbean.

Hes still a pretty young guy, but within the past 2 years, hes lost 6 of 8 fights, so his mma career has been winding down.

One things for sure, Hes a tough guy and hes got some decent wrestling skills.

Kimbo should win that fight, but hes nobody to sleep on.

Thompsons problem is his glass chin. I think Gary Shaw is doing the right thing giving him B & C level oponents till he can develope his groung game enough to start taking on top guys.
