I agree plus Buentello has been Ko'd before I think Kimbo would get the better of the exchanges and eventually put him to sleep

Didn't AA knock Paul out in under 10 or 15 seconds of the first round in their fight? Wasn't that the one that was so damn fast that even the crowd didn't see the knockout?

It was 15 seconds of the first round and like i've said before, if he cant withstand the first flurry from Kimbo, it may be another short, painful night for the headhunter.

This is the perfect fight for Kimbo. I don't think he's ready to go in w/ a grappler who will take him down and test him on the ground. Buentello will be willing to strike w/ him, and it would be a good test for Kimbo.

I think the UFC made a poor decision putting Lesnar in w/ a submission specialist who exposed his weakness. It seems that for Striker/Wrestlers getting into MMA, BJJ is the most difficult aspect to grasp. Elite XC would be wise to continue to put strikers in front of Kimbo for the time being. If it gets to a point where Kimbo's threatining a title shot, then he needs to be tested as an all around fighter. As an asset, he's most valuable to Elite XC fighting exciting stand up fights w/ exciting stand up fighters.

The fight w/ Brock and Mir could really have gone either way. Had Brock won that fight, people would have said that it was a great idea to pit him against someone who he could seemingly overpower w/ his wrestling. He would have beaten a guy that was not a striker and that would have justified throwing him agianst a BJJ guy.

Either way there would have been "if this than that" scenarios IMO. In this situation there will always be controversy regarding his first opponent.
