Kombo's next opponent: James Thompson

May 31st on CBS---THE FIRST MAIN EVENT MMA FIGHT on
MAJOR NATIONAL NETWORK TV will be:

James Thompson (British)

VS
Kimbo Slice (from the ghetto of the good ole fashion US of A)



James Thompson...he's a can. He looks cool...big, buff, mean...but he got KO'd by none other than fatty himself, Eric "Butterbean" Esch, just LAST YEAR!!! He's lost his last two fights by KO. So, are they trying to build up Kimbo Slice. . .absolutely. I don't have anything against Kimbo as a fighter, it's just frustrating to see all the smoke and mirrors being used to build up his image and persona. Also, I don't like street fighting and since that's where he was born as a fighter, they/he want to put forth that image and I think someday he'll have a rude awakening at the hands of a real mixed martial artist.
