Just watched it. The black dude seemed to have more strength and skills but much less stamina. He was exhausted at the end and lost. I don't think he was even hurt. I think he just got so exhausted that couldn't go on anymore.

Overall, I'm not impressed with either one. Put them in with some pro fighters, and they'd be dog meat in a couple minutes. They lack the skills and stamina. What they have is only power.

True story officer but copping all of those punches wears you down and that's what shows that gannon was the better fighter. He knew kimbo was a thug and not a boxer so if he could draw the fight out and survive he'd come out on top rumble in the jungle style.

I agree with your comments towards officer but gannon showed some stamina and you should do some research before you dismiss gannon. The guy is a no rules/pride style fighter so this was out of his area a little plus for him to continue on after the beating he copped was pretty fantastic if you ask me.

Remember these guys aren't wearing gloves, that's a big difference when you're punching and getting punched and you can see gannon holding his fists because they probably broke 1min into the fight!

Do a Google search: Kimbo Slice. It's on the second page. I watched it for free.

I agree, a pro boxer would destroy either of those guys with quick jabs in a heartbeat.

That depends on the rules raptor, I haven't seen him fight but gannon would most likely take a boxer down before he threw his first punch.

Yeah, I'm talking about boxing, which is all Kimbo does.

Then I agree. Watching the vid again you see kimbo was first to go for the tackle (even though he specified it was a boxing match) but then when it didn't work out and gannon got him in a hold his team came in and split it. They also let kimbo belt gannon when he was on the ground but when gannon tried the same thing they stopped him at first.

I'd say that Kimbo is a street fighter that focuses on boxing but he's just a puncher that can take a few like butterbean.
