"I got my first black eye," he laughed. He later turned to Petruzelli and joked, "You knocked me out in front of my family; that's (expletive) up."

Through it all Slice remained the only likable character of this foolish farce. He wasn't the one claiming he was the best in the world. He was just a working-****dude who figured out how to beat the system and cash in on his 15 minutes of fleeting fame.

He's got kids to feed and bills to pay and right to the end, he was milking bonuses out of the promotion, a one-time homeless man holding the Tiffany Network's prime-time programming hostage. Only in America.

A humble man thrown into mad hype a not once did he say he was the best. He found a meal ticket and got on the train don't hate him hate the hype.

I agree to hate the hype, not the fighter. I've got no problems with Kimbo, and he did the smart thing by going professional for the paycheck to feed his family.

I think he can rise above and do much more. He will lose some and win some but he will be great just I hope the hype dies a bit.

I never bought into the hype of Kimbo Slice, but you never know; This loss could be the determination he needs to actually become a force in MMA. I wouldn't be surprised if his career is over though.

I really don't see him being able to beat Tito....Tito took Chuck Liddell into the 3 round. If Kimbo can't beat Seth than he stands no chance against Tito.

I was not expecting Kimbo to take the loss as easy as he did. I guess It is a good thing considering a majority of the fighters become extremely depressed after they lose a fight. I'm wondering if he would have won if he fought Shamrock though.

TO me this really proves nothing.. If you watch boxing fights occasionally you will see fights that end quickly due to a lucky shot or a freak accident.. This is not defending Kimbo Slice (I personally despise MMA), just saying I think people are being awful hasty.. Not to mention he is clearly not experienced enough he has had only a handful of professional fights.

Kimbo got sliced and diced, but I don't hold it against him. He's playing with the big boys now, so give him some time to learn how to play their game.

No such thing as a freak accident or lucky shot inside the octagon. Both fighters are aware of the multiple ways a fight can end.

Judging by the man's street fights, he was a very good bare-knuckle boxer. Judging by his most recent fight however, he didn't have very good chin. He was a very dominate, in-your-face, speed and power boxer from his videos. Kimbo was a tough street fight, but just needs to work on his chin and more bobbing and weaving, because he can't fight in the big-time the way he did it on the street as far as his defense game goes.

Kimbo is a great sideshow, but its just not going to happen for him. The days of a brawler being able to make it big time in MMA are over. He may be able to knock out some putz they stick in the octagon with him, but anybody decent will take him apart.

Exactly. I mean it was cool to see him sleep random dudes in somebody's backyard, but once I heard he was doing MMA, I stopped paying attention.

I agree Kimbo's a likeable guy. The ONLY likeable guy? No way. Seth's had bad breaks and finally got a stroke of luck for once.

That said, the owners and managers of EliteXC are ultrajerks.

I still think the ref ended the fight kinda early.

But wow, some random pink haired dude easily beats Kimbo Slice. He's not so good after all. But, with that being said, I wouldn't wanna get mugged by him.
