I must give my friend Yves Edwards a whole lot of love for this fight and all he's done in MMA. He's a good guy and one of the best strikers I've ever seen.

GO THUGJITSU!!!!!!!

Ugh.....

All this fight can do is set the sport back 10 years. Neither guy is anything more than a bar room brawler. It will be the ultimate train wreck, and I pray that this isn't the first MMA fight that someone sees, and forms the opinion about the sport based on it.

Definitely not what the sport has evolved into. However, I remember the first couple of UFC and would still enjoy a good fist fight. Tank put on a good show, and this should be interesting. It is more along the lines of a freak show, not a main event :D
 
Tank just showed up for a check. I have NEVER seen anything that pittiful in my life!!! But, Kimbo does look like he has improved his striking. He looks more fluid and sharp
 
He will eventually, but remember that he only has 2 pro fights now. Most guys with 2 fights never see this level of competition.

He's got some good hands and power, but everyone should know that already. Tank was the perfect opponet for Kimbo, as would any fighter who prefers to stand and trade.

Yves had an awesome flying knee.
 
I think someone like Tim Silva would have kimbo tapped in less than a round. Any heavyweight with a halfway decent ground game and half a brain will take out kimbo.
