EliteXC Kimbo Slice VS. Ken Shamrock

LMAO... What can I say, the fight was a joke. Shamrock is injured from practice and in the last minute was replaced by former UFC fighter Seth Petruzelli. Clearly Kimbo was the favorite coming in this fight. He's bigger and he outweighed Seth by 30 lbs. I think everyone expected Kimbo to win, EliteXC was banking on him to win, after all he is the face of that organization and they will do everything they can to hype him up even if he's not that good at a professional level.

Kimbo Slice gained noteriety by fighting in backyards, people's houses and in the streets, by definition he's a street fighter, a brawler, but when you put MMA in the equation its a whole lot different. I really think that had Kimbo had been in the UFC that he would have been crushed easily by its stable of high caliber fighters. EliteXC is no way in the same league with the UFC.
Seth Petruzelli exposed Kimbo Slice's deficiency in the octagon, a short jab to the chin and he goes down and relentlessly pounds on him, the fight is stopped in 14 seconds. Winner: Seth Petrozelli by TKO.
