Quoteworthy:
“If he [Kimbo] fought anybody that mattered, I would book [Chuck Liddell] tomorrow…. The fact is, Kimbo’s not there yet. He would get destroyed. I heard he just got knocked out by Forrest Griffin last week in a sparring match after a kick to the head.”
UFC President Dana White admits that he’s open to the possibility of setting up a fight between former UFC light heavyweight champion, Chuck Liddell, and EliteXC star — and former Miami streetbrawler — Kimbo Slice. Two things have to happen first, however: Kimbo has to become a better fighter and he has to sign with promotion — White no longer cross promotes. That day might not be too far away. Sam Caplan reminds us that Slice inked a four-fight deal and his next bout against James Thompson in May will be the third under the existing contract. We know that Chuck will be down … Kimbo bothers him.
