Ken Shamrock Says He Will Break Kimbo’s Leg

Thu, 28 Aug 2008 20:00:39 +1900

Of all the movies in the Rocky series, my favorite has always been Rocky IV. The death of Apollo Creed at the beginning, Rocky’s need to avenge his friend, the training montage, it’s all great. Still, my favorite part of the movie is right before Rocky’s fight against super-Commie Ivan Drago when the two meet in the center of the ring and Drago tells Balboa “I must ...

Shamrock says brother beat Kimbo

Thu, 28 Aug 2008 16:25:48 +1900

The selection of Ken Shamrock, a UFC Hall of Fame member, as the next opponent for Kimbo Slice has, predictably, drawn great criticism. Shamrock has lost five in a row and seven of his last eight and hasn't win since 2004, when he defeated Kimo Leopoldo. He's also 44 and will be just four months shy of his 45th birthday when he meets Slice in the main event of an Elite XC card that will be ...

Don’t touch that dial! Kimbo Slice is coming back to a Saturday network TV primetime slot near you! (Well, considering he’s not showing up until October, go ahead and touch the dial if you must.

Ken Shamrock Talks Kimbo Slice Fight(Video)

Fri, 29 Aug 2008 00:35:00 +1900

This is actually from awhile ago, but of course now we know its going to happen so this video, just like that, becomes relevant again. I'm still rooting for Shamrock via heel hook or kneebar, that would be priceless. Some IFL fighters(or should I say former IFL fighters) also weigh in on the match-up.

CBS is Ready For Take II With Kimbo Slice

Tue, 26 Aug 2008 16:36:00 +1900

Elite XC’s national TV debut with Kimbo Slice earlier this summer was a ratings winner , circus-like in nature (exploding ears! ewwww!), and MMA purists deemed the night a laughable joke because Slice was awarded a victory in a match he should have (maybe!) lost. Elite XC’s second CBS effort didn’t involve Kimbo and hardly registered anywhere. So this move is obvious: ...
