When will they stop pampering Kimbo Slice?

Question

When will they actually start pairing him up with some viable opponents? Any time this year? Tell me why you think what you think.

Answer 1

like every one is saying he is bringing in the money for elite xc so there gonna keep throwing crappy fighters against him.

Answer 2

After his first fight on CBS Elite XC will look at the ratings the fight got.

If it shows that Kimbo is drawing a huge audience then they will continue to give him terrible people to fight just so it shows Kimbo is a strong light.

Once they feel that Kimbo has reached a peak level of ratings, they will give him a better group of fighters.

And you have to also remember that the fighters fighting in Kimbo's company aren't nearly as good as the fighters in the UFC so you can't fault Kimbo for beating on bad fighters.

Answer 3

I don't think they are pampering him so much, but just not rushing him too much into a fight that he is going to be outclassed.  Thompson is a good fight for Slice as Thompson is a brawler and a wild puncher.  He also cannot take a good punch.  Yoshida almost KO'd Thompson.  Yoshida is a light heavyweight, that only trained for a few weeks for the fight and is about 15 years Thompson's elder.  He is also a Judo expert, not a stand up fighter.

Anything, but a 1st round KO of Thompson would be a disappointment for Slice and the organization.

Answer 4

Dude...Elite XC has no credible fighters so they throw him against C class fighters that he will kill...

At least sign a B class heavyweight to fight Slice and show everyone hes pretty much worthless in MMA against quality opponents.

I am hoping a big time KO for Thompson! Maybe that will knock all these ignorant Kimbo fans off his d*ck!
