Kimbo going to boxing possibly?

[2-0-Sixx]

I think he can do good in 4 round fights against bums and journeymen. Anything after that he'd get crushed.

Ultimate Fighter” season ten cast member, “Kimbo Slice” is said to be really focusing on what his next move will be, while he has offers to fight for both MMA and Boxing promotions.




Speaking to MMAJunkie.com, Kimbo's manager Mike Imber said:




“He has a lot of offers and opportunities on the table, so it’s up to him. Those guys (the UFC) gave Kimbo an incredible opportunity and (we) can’t thank them enough for that. Who knows what the future will bring with them?”




“It’s been his call from the beginning, and it’s his call now.”




The street fight king was released from his UFC contract after his second round TKO loss at UFC 113 from Matt Mitrione earlier this month. Rumors surfaced that he would be appearing at the DREAM 14 card on May 29, but those rumors were turned down.




Stay tuned to Wrestling-Radio.com for more information on Kimbo's next move.

He needs to go to pro wrestling. He won't last in boxing either.

 

[Johnny Truelove]

lol kimbo has the worst cardio i've ever seen i think after a couple ric flair chops to the chest he would be out of air... ha.

 

[iaoish]

I don't know what happened to him...
But he needs to get back on his weight and stomp fools in the backyard again.

Fighting in and out a ring are two completely different things. He cannot manage himself in a ring... then do what you do best and do it outside the ring...

 

[iaoish]

dubbele...

 

[SC_408]

lol yeah he wouldnt make it, his age is catching up ...he needs to just use whatever money he has left and invest it on somethin else , idk

 

[MOREBASS]

I think its too little too late for Kimbo.


His conditioning isn't really there, and you aren't going to get to the level of these guys after a year or two of training, just to be honest.


I'm a Kimbo fan just because he's humble, and comes from nothing. But I don't think he'd do any better in boxing, than he did in MMA. Well, maybe against bums like 2-0 said, but not at any high level of the sport.

 

[B-Buzz]

his knees are shot, seems like that would keep him from really doing anything high level/competitive. And I think Dream tried to set him up against Minowaman but they didn't have enough time to negotiate

 

[MOREBASS]

Kimbo vs James Tony in the back lot of a Hope Depot. Let's go!

 

[bgrumpyp]

No doubt in my mind he would do better in boxing(4 rounders). I think MMA is to much for him to pick up at he's age.

 

[MooreBlock530]

use the strength towards a realistic career....good idea

 

[mExIcaNox4]

WWE or TNA

 

[naner12]

He can do good in 4 rounders against COMPLETE bums. Journeymen are journeymen for a reason and that's because they can smash out guys like Kimbo ..

 

[Palmer]

Gotta give the man props for trying to stay active in the fighting scene. I wish him nothing but the best. Dude is old, strong, tough, presents himself well and actually gives a fuck about staying active in the fighting world. No hating from my end here.

 

[Reggie PUSH]

I think he can do good in 4 round fights against bums and journeymen. Anything after that he'd get crushed.

yea he can go the butterbean route and get paid..but he doesn't have much power..even with those 4 ounce gloves on so imagine him fightin trained boxers..and he has to get acclimated to boxing again bcuz with mma it's way different stances..he's got to get his footwork back

 

[T-Rip]

I would have liked to see kimbo in mma in his 20's, he would have been a beast but I would like to see him in K1 even though he doesn't have much left in the tank at this point

 

[UCDgreek]

^^he would be awful in K1. he cant take a kick.

 

[BROWN GUERRERO]

Yeah, k1 is definitely the worst choice for him. Can you imagine him taking a kick from Buakaw(whos like half his size)?? Kimbo would fold like origami.

 

[B-Buzz]

lol I would actually pay a lot of money to see Kimbo fight Buakaw

 

[BROWN GUERRERO]

Kimbo would need a pair of these immediately after -
