I didn't see last nights fight but seriously if dana gonna start firing people from the ufc for a couple losses you may as well add chuck lidell, frank mir, tito ortiz, come on..kimbo was just gettin his feet wet.
I do see ur point.. i know ur not directly saying fire MIR or Ortiz.. but saying bc of a few losses...

Danas reasoning for firing him is bc hes simply not ready... and he likes the guy as a person and hes not gonna send him out there to get embarrassed again... trust me i think if Dana still hated Kimbo like he used to, he woulda kept him for one more fight.

Kimbo wasn't brought in as a contract fighter to the UFC though....He didn't hafta fight his way up thru the ranks there. It was on some "let's see what happens" type shit and what happened was he FAILED MISERABLY.

Dude still got paid ALOT of money so it's not like he was ripped off. It's a business.

Last nights fight shouldnt be the reason kimbo gets let go - the fight was garbage because he fucked up and was throwing around big ass Mitrione in the first round and lost all his gas.

He's a character, and good for the UFC. I'm sure his handlers want more money than he's worth, but when its a pink slip or being in UFC im sure that will change.

Have you seen heavy weight fights? most are one dimensional.

What Mitrione was trying surprised the hell out of me - but when it just looks good and has no impact... does it matter?

last night's fight was weak as fuck but honestly i think if Kimbo focused more on endurance he'd be a problem

why? he has 0 chin, his hands are slow, and his punches dont have any power compared to other heavy weights, he isnt that good of a fighter period, even in his street fights, he would get dropped, and his bitch ass entorouge would rip dude off him, till kimbo recovered, he got dropped by a dude with pink hair, he hit james thompson like 50 times in a row, and dude was still standing, when in his previous 10 fights, he got ko-ed by 1 punch in the first 10 seconds, kimbo sucks, and is just hype.

Lol how in the hell is this Hater Shit? Its a business mayne, plus have you watched the fights? Yes, he can street fight. Its a fact. UFC and well MMA as a whole IS NOT STREET FIGHTING. There IS a difference. There IS technique and shit, not just punch a motherfucker in the face (although that is a big part.....u get what im saying). UFC is like the WWE of fighting. Other companies are the TNA at this moment. Maybe if Kimbo trains and gets better (kinda like how Lesnar needed to train bad since all he wanted to do was throw punches and didnt know shit else Vs Mir the first time), and fights in other MMA organizations he can find his way back to the UFC or maybe WEC.

Hes had a few chances.. He didnt win Ultimate fighter, and still had another chance even though he Dana said that would be his only way in. He just isnt cut out for it yet

Why the fuck is joe stevenson still around then?? Or for that matter chris leban or josh koscheck..they have all lost more fights in the ufc then kimbo..

Not to mentiuon he would still probably draw a bigger audience then any of those people i just listed
Joe Stevenson actually has talent. As does Kos & Leben. that's why they're still around.
