First off it's Tim SYLVIA, not Silva, and along with Wanderlei, Anderson, and Antonio, Asserio and Thiago Silva would also beat Kimbo's ass. Iceman is not allowed to fight outside the UFC, so you won't see that, but if you're a Kimbo fan, be thankful.
You state Coleman is a legend, which he is, but you know what is background is? That's right, wrestling, the same as Lesner. There are a lot of successful MMA guys with wrestling backgrounds like Courture, Hughes, Kocheck, the list goes on, but how many successful MMA guys have a background in street fighting? You could maybe say Lee Murray, but he even had a submission background.
The point is MMA has evolved since its' early days and Kimbo is going to continue to be a sideshow until he learns a fighting DISCIPLINE, which street fighting is not. Lesner would take Kimbo down and just ground and pound him which he did to Mir except Kimbo wouldn't have the BJJ background to save himself. Guess, what? James Thompson is in Courture's camp training, so if he listens, he's going to do the same thing and ground and pound Kimbo. If he acts like an idiot like he has his last 4 or 5 fights and bum rushes with flying fists and leads with his glass jaw, Kimbo will win in 30 seconds, we'll see...
