The Gina Carano / Kaitlin Young fight was great..  Two very skilled fighters going at it, no question.  But the rest of this was a joke

EliteXC made a joke out of the MMA last night.  That Kimbo fight was ridiculous..  Both those guys looked like 2 guys down at the local gym going at it. 

The only thing that was established last night was the view that alot of Americans have about this sport calling it "barbaric". or as McCain put it, "human cockfighting"??  Alot of people have those views, but they don't even watch the UFC to see what it's all about.  The UFC guys are very skilled athletes.  Now, the first chance MMA gets to showcase the sport on a prime time network, EliteXC delivers us Kimbo Slice as the headliner???  I knew it was doomed before it started. 

Plus, if the Lawler/Smith fight was a title fight, then it should have been the main event..  But no, they put Kimbo in the main event to showcase has backyard brawling skills and p*ss poor ju jitsu against the glass jawed Thompson who is a joke himself. 

The only thing I was waiting for was Don King to enter the ring and claim Kimbo as the greatest fighter in the world. 

EliteXC will NEVER be anywhere near the class of the UFC.

That was complete bullsh**! That was less of a win for Kimbo and more of a loss for James Thompson. I watched that fight, when thompson was on top, he did not know how to ground n' pound. Put Kimbo in the cage with an elite fighter.

Put Kimbo in the cage with the WORST UFC heavyweight right now, and he loses in the first.

MikeF421 is on the money.

Don't hate on Elite XC for the CBS card.  I know this is the first time a lot of people have ever seen Elite XC, let a lone a MMA bout.  Hopefully most of you have seen all of the previous Elite XC cards on Showtime and they were great.  I like MMA and I do not favor one promotion over the other.  UFC of course is #1, but there are many othere great fighters in other organizations.  Elite XC is just getting started and they have some great fighters.  Smoking Joe is very very good.  KJ Noons is amazing, Diaz is exciting.  There are many many great fighters and have been many great fights in Elite XC.  Don't judge them by one show on CBS.  CBS was calling most of the shots.  They have a lot to work out and through and they will. 

Tonight you will see a great card with the WEC.  If I had to choose my favorite organization right now it would be the WEC.

War Pulver.  Hoping for a miracle.

Bad or good, keep posting.  The more posts we have everywhere on the internet is good for MMA.

After that fight its going to be hard for them to promote kimbo, he just seems like a regular average elite xc fighter, and also they cant challenge him with a better opponent for the next fight because he'd lose.
