Kimo Slice got knocked out in 14 punches recently. Kimbo was the You Tube street fighting sensation. He has been recently marked as the next Mixed Martial Arts sensation. Some how his second fight was a highly promoted main event by CBS. I am a MMA fan and it was easy to see that this guy lacks the skills to even be awarded an MMA contract let alone be promoted as an main event. The has the look of a fighter, but fighting at that level requires advanced skills that he lacks. Kimbo was knock on his ass by a replacement fill in fighter with only 14 punches thrown. When you look at his picture your first thought is "I would not want to run into this guy in a dark alley". Getting knocked out in that manner makes me wonder if you were to scroll down on this picture he would be wearing a pink mini skirt. As I'm LOLing I do realize that I would only say that while hiding behind my computer (I could take him if I had to). Because this guy looks like he comes for central casting and the blood thirsty nature of human beings we will see Kimbo again and again and again. KIMBO SLICE vs MIKE TYSON?

As a fellow MMA fan I'm just glad to see the hype die down on this poser. It really is ridiculous how many people looked at his beating guys who lost 7 out of their last 8 fights or 4 fights in a row and started talking him up like the second coming of Mike Tyson. The Tyson fight you suggested is something that a lot of people have talked about, but I think it would take EliteXC's last bit of capital to offer him enough to fight. They have already lost $60 million, so a move like that would probably be their make-or-break first move into the PPV realm.
Kimbo's popularity is more because of the porn money behind him than his YouTube fights. The folks at Reality Kings have a ton of money and have been pushing him. CBS is taking the bait and hoping that connection isn't exposed too much.
