MMA Quick Quote: Kimbo not Sliced by Forrest Griffin

Props: MMANEWS.COM
"No, there is no truth to that at all. It's bullshit and Forrest Griffin will tell you that it's bullshit too. The fact is it was a good sparring session and I was training with Forrest and he was talking to me about defending yourself at all times and then he threw a big kick and I was like "WOAH I never even seen that coming" but no I never got knocked out. Even if I did get knocked out, saying that and putting that rumor out there just makes you a pussy."
-EliteXC heavyweight Kimbo Slice responds to a rumor started by UFC President Dana White that he was knocked out by a head kick in a sparring match with UFC light heavyweight contender Forrest Griffin.

Wildman Boxing 101.
1. Keep arms by your side and never defend yourself.
2. Start EVERY punch from behind your back, swinging like a maniac so your opponent can see each punch coming.
3. If it looks like your opponent will hit you, run.
4. Mix in Black & White shot with colour to make it look like Raging Bull.
5. Have your mom do the video, it saves money.
6. Post on internet and be a self proclaimed bad ass.
Class, this concludes todays lesson.

This is so funny, I lasted about 15 seconds of the video. i did like the Forrest post of the leg kick, that was funny. Wildman, you should have atleast covered your face so people would not know who you were. You have to be honest, have you watched it, how much did you guys have to drink before doing this video. Also, curious, threw the repeats of all the hits you had on the other guy, where are all the cut out parts of him hitting you. Did they make you cry and you did not want to have them seen? I bet you show the full real video and you are the one that lost right?
I can not believe I even wasted this much time here….too funny…

Or, he may not have seen it because of that big ass bush beard! I bet there are some kind of critters in there.
If I were going to fight Slice I’d make him shave that beard. Sean O’Grady talked about fighters with big beards on Tuersday Night Fights. He said it can actually help reduce the amount of force on a punch.

“Oh hey kimbo, hows it going”
“good man”
“cool remember to protect yourself at all times”
“ok, ill remem-”
Here’s another time he did it:

You’d be surprised at the practice it takes to execute a leg kick like that. Its not as easy as it looks. You have to be able to turn your hips right. The power in any roundhouse kick is mostly generated ion the hips and not in the legs. Watch any of Cro-Cops left kicks to get an idea.

I posted this yesterday morning, and simply put, we really need Dana to cross promote just once. It’s so obvious that Forrest DID ko kimbo, because if he admitted it he’d be a pussy! This guy needs to fight someone relevant and stop talking back to chuck and calling out Gannon. We all know you’d beat Gannon dude, try talking about someone under 40 and ith a couple of quality wins.

gary shaw has already stated that as soon as kimbo makes his name in mma, he will switch him to boxing. so we’ll probably never see him against a relavent mma fighter. w/kimbo being on the cover of espnthe magazine, the switch will probably happen real soon.

Sean Gannon already beat Kimbo thats probably why he is calling him out.
Kimbo gassed but messed up Gannon’s face but Gannon was still victorious.
Kimbo was only successful at Street fighting because it was stand up only. Kimbo’s chronies were crying at Gannon throwing a couple of knees lol.
I’ve watched alot of Kimbo’s Youtube fights to see what all the hype was.
I wasn’t impressed. He fought some unfit guys, fat guys, long haired guys that couldn’t see a punch coming and guys that are all of the above.
Gannon was the only guy with stamina, which was all that was needed to win.

It amazes me at why so many people hate on Kimbo. The guy did what was best for his life. Hew was making some decent money in those back yard brawl. Is it Mino’s fault that so many idiots became a fan of his because of those fights? NO. Laugh at those fights all you want, but they got him where he is today….Headlining the first ever CBS mma card. The guy used what he could to make a life for himself. He has taken mma and his training serious. For the most part he has been respectful (except for when hyping up a fight). At least he is a REAL Fighter, which is more then I can say about a couple big mma stars like Tito.
Kimbo is still working his way up. Although his mma opponents were cans, he did what any fighter starting out in mma has done, worked his way up from the bottom (and he is still doing that). Although he has fought Cans, each opponent he has fought in mma was better than his last opponent so whats there to complain about? Thompson is a big dude, with a lot of mma experience ion the big stage. He has a win over the Great Yoshida. I have no problem with this fight and it will be the 1st Kimbo fight that I actually am looking forward to seeing. Its not his fault that so many idiots in this country are HUGE fans of him, which is what is causing him to be the main event of many ELITEXC events. Just like Brock was the co main event of the biggest event of the year(superbowl weekend)… The decisions to make Brock and Kimbo headline cards when all the die hards no they arent worthy isnt the UFC’s fault, its the stupid ass American fans.
If so many people werent facinated by him, he wouldnt be sold as a main event. EliteXC is doing the most they can with the little they have to work with. I think its more of a sham, that the UFC put Brock in the co main event, than ELITEXC using Kimbo as a main event. EliteXC doesnt have much Depth or big money draws to compete with the UFC, so I have no problem with them trying to do what they can with what they have (Kimbo).
Whats the UFC’s excuse? They are the most dominant mma organization in the world with tons of Depth in most divisions. They could have put together a million more deserving main events than Brock vs. Mir. All that accomplished was getting Brock a quick loss.
As for Kimbo being Knocked out in sparring….Who the hell cares? Why is this news? Top fighters get KO’ed in training everyday. If you arent getting knocked out occasionally, then you arent training. Fighters training at Chute Box get knocked out every day. So Kimbo got KNocked out…who the F cares. Its not like he got KO’ed from one of Forrest’s powerless punches. If it did happen, it happened because of a Kick to the head. Of many people in the world do you guys know that can take a shin to the face and not get KO? This is just stupid. People making a whole lot out of nothing.
I believe it was Yoko Couture who started this stupid rumor. Even if it is true, who the hell cares? What do you people think happens in mma training? Pitty pat?

I usually agree with you John, but your hate fpor Tito is obvious. to say tito isn’t a ral fighter after all he’s accomplished is stupid. I’m not a Tito fan, but come on bro! As far as Kimbo, I agree,he’s done a lot for himself, takes training serious and respects the sport. My point is, why not just say “yeah it happened, but it won’t happen again?” To say a pussy would get/admit getting KO"D, well maybe if he fought a gguy under 40 or with awiinning record, he’s know what getting ko’d is like (not being a pussy)! Until then, he can continue cashing checks and making money for elite and just shut up. As far as him making good money with those “fights” online. 10k per fight, and there are only like 3-5 of them. “internet sensation?” It was stand up only, no knees and against guys that were shitty fighters. We got to call a spade a spade, he’s not proven!!

Tito NOW is not a real fighter. Back in the day, Tito was a hell of a fighter and I used to enjoy his fights a lot.
If Tito had half of the fighting Fury Kimbo has, he would be a Monster!

Kevin…where the F in my post did I say he was a proven MMA fighter? R u dislexic or something? u put a crap load of words in my mouth. By the way, making 10k to fight in those B.S street fights, sounds like good money to me… (ask Kalib Starnes lol)
If he did get KO’ed and he is lying about it, its only because every thing gets magnitized emensly on the internet, and he has Dana White tralking crap about it. If so many Keyboard warriors (as Mousasi calls us) didnt make so much out of nothing, he wouldnt have to be defending himself against BS like this.
How many people have yiou seen take big Kicks to the face and not get KO? I can only think of 1, Mark Hunt against Cro Cop at Shockwave!
You think I was impressed by those BS internet fights? Hell no I wasnt! But it impressed the hell out of America, enough so that the guy his headlining the 1st ever CBS card and will grace the cover of ESPN the magazine.
He has done so much with what he has had to work with, that I actually respect him as a business man!
KEVIN: I have said about a zillion times that he is unproven…the only thing proven is that he has the heart of a fighter…..and to start in mma, I think thats the best base to have. I would rather have a fighter starting in mma with no skills, but that likes to bang, instead of a pure wrestler scared to get hit in the face.
Kimbo is a FIGHTER! Will he be a successful mma fighter? the Jury is still out on that, but he has a chance. He has the exposure needed to push him hard to work at becoming one and he is training with Bas Rutten and Extreme Couture…. I give this dude a chance. I am not ready to hate on him or right him off like the majority of you guys. If he were to fight a top 10 Heavyweight today, he would get crushed, but 2 years from now, who’s to say he wont be a force!

I hear you John, but everyone knows why he is getting main event status.
But is it good for the sport, as Muscle Dolphin rightfully points out, I doubt it.
Kimbo had no MMA experience and walked into a main event in the MMA mainstream, based on his fan base or because he is respectful or because he takes his training seriously lol??
We have a great boxing talent in the UK called Amir Khan. He has a huge following in the UK. However, he is still fighting the regulatory contention fights before he gets a world title shot.
With regards to Lesnar, this is a major UFC blunder. A total disrespect to all the existing UFC fighters fighting for contention in any division.
However, Dana could argue Lesnar had the same skills as ‘Hall of Famer’ Dan Severn?? Who knows.
In conclusion, I whole heartedly agree with Musle Dolphin. People like Kimbo headlining will only make people not take the sport seriously.

It’s a pretty sad state of affairs when a guy like Kimbo with absolutely no MMA accomplishments to date gets this much PR. If this trend continues then the attempt by many people to make MMA a legitimate sport in the eyes of the mainstream sporting world may be set back permanently.

You know, if your a porno bouncer from Miami making Youtube videos of yourself fighting people off the street, you might find yourself in the perfect storm. With the power of Youtube, the unfortunate American brand that is “Ghetto”, and the wirlwind upstart of MMA organizations with lots of money who are looking for their own big star, this guy has found himself in a rare and lucrative financial position. All the stars have aligned for this guy. The great God of luck has showered Kimbo with all that is good. If I make a video of myself swimming a few laps against some out of shape competition and then post it on Youtube, I might get lucky and get a few comments. I won’t on the other hand get an offer from the Summer Olympic swim team to compete for the gold. Now imagine that I did in fact get that call. Now if you will, imagine me calling out all of the world class swimmers out as if I could beat them. It shows a remakable lack of reality based common sense on my part, does it not? Kimbo suffers from this same mentality. Can you believe the nerve of this guy? It’s almost like swimming with great white sharks and poking them with a spear. Kevin is in for a rude, rude awakening, and I for one can’t wait.

Howie, I appreciate your ability to be able to predict without any bias feelings, seeing that your mma knowledge is so much better than the likes of Bas Rutten. Plus you being able to see the future ability of a fighter yet, probably not knowing anything about his present state nor his training regime, but when guys like you speak we should definitely listen. By the way for everyones benefit its a double standard for you to run your mouth about Kimbo, yet tell him he should shut up. Don’t say I’m a fan I can say whatever, he’s a fighter and can say whatever. To me I think it’s real funny when you guys say Gary Shaw should not promote Kimbo this way, thats the exact reason that none of you have any idea about promoting, you see you spend as much time talking about Kimbo as you do any other fighter now thats real funny. It’s also real funny that Shaw is wrong for promoting Kimbo because he’s known, but Dana was right for promoting Lesnar as though he is the next best thing to fried ham. Oh yea Lesnar with a 1-0 mma record called out Tim, Randy, Mir, and pretty much said he would destroy everybody. I’m not a real fan of Kimbo, but I would like to give him the opportunity to prove himself, before I without facts make an assumption hence the first three letters could be me or you.

oh. its you again. you know lesnar at least had quite the prolific wrestling background(a staple in mma) while kimbo has just street fighting. training w/bas would make a big difference for kimbo if he ever gets to show it( read comment to kevin above). lesnar would kill kimbo in a real mma match or a street fight. im not a fan or a hater of kimbo either but i kinda hope elitexc does well. free mma is worth going throgh some of the circus acts. you know dana’s the man, it’s just stuck in your subconscious.lol! what do you think about fedor vs sylvia and the reported payouts for both fighters.

b.w Kimbo is a pretty good boxer, I’m not totally convinced that Lesnar would beat Kimbo. Lesnar being only a pure wrestler leaves himself open while bum rushing a guy, Kimbo being a good striker and very fast and accurate, could very well ko him. That payout is good for Tim, and Fedor but stupid for a promotion that small. Then again I don’t see this as a big fight, but others may and it may bring in big bucks. I also hope some of these other promotions do well, if for no other reason than to keep all these fighters busy.

Dude, Kimbo knows he’s a noob. But the guy has heart and balls that all of you wish you had, and will not back down from any man, win or lose. He knows Chuck is better that him. If it was up to him, he will take any fight, even one that he KNOWS he’ll lose. But he’s listening to his handlers and doing what’s best for his family financially. Would any of you internet warriors face a guy you know would beat you? Even those that train, they’d most likely prefer to fight guys on their level.

They weren’t truly street fights, you’re right. In real street fights, people get killed. I know because a non-blood related relative got killed in a street fight.
So, you’re right. In real street fights there are no rules. I think most reasonable people, though, believe some level of rules are required in all types of fights.
Many entry level pro fighters that show promise and are marketable are usually only given “gimme fights” until they’ve been groomed enough. Another example is Bisping who’s first 3 fights in the UFC were “gimme fights.” And he even had like 10 pro fights at the time.
Granted, people like Josh Haynes and Elvis Sinosic aren’t as bad as Tank but Bisping already had 10 pro fights whereas Kimbo only had 1 going in against Tank.
My point is, Kimbo’s career is just beginning. It’s unreasonable to expect him to take on anybody in the top 10 yet.

It was marketing genius (and kind of a no-brainer) to put him up against Tank. He’s the biggest high profile name yet an easy win for Kimbo to take on. As for Tank, its a payday. Hell, I’d get KO’d by Kimbo for that much money.

I dont believe a word of this shit Kimbo is saying…I think he is just upset that it got out. Im sorry but a whole gym of guys arent going to lie about this shit. Im sorry but I totally agree that Kimbo is just a joke…he’s just another form of B.Lesnar that has been marketed better. I think EliteXC did a better job of marketing this guy but the truth still stands that he cant really fight in MMA.

Didn’t he say he was undefeated in like 1000 street fights or something? That guy sucks…
I would like to see Chuck v Kimbo because even though I think Kimbo would lose, I think he would surprise people in the stand up game.

Hell if Sean Gannon knocked this big dumb wanna-be out, then I imagine Griffin did too…Kimbo is a novelty act…he would get destroyed by any fighter that had a pulse…he is nothing more then a side show and will never ever be on the elite level…he beat a washed up Tank Abbott who is like 60 years old and can barely walk. I hope Elite XC grows a set and puts him up against someone who is at least marginally important and good and get his ass handed to him so he understands that he is no match for a REAL MMA Fighter!!

what does the amount of money someone makes have to do with what kind of person they are. i know some millionaire’s who are miserable b/c they have no self respect and are just unhappy. so dana’s got a lot of money, it don’t mean he’s an upstanding guy who’s got balls to take up for his name. if he tried it i bet it would make him feel better about his coward self, u know, a little self esteem boost. lol, i’ve never seen money buy anyone’s way out of an ass whippin

Dana’s a little bitch he’s jealous of Kimbo cuz he’s in EliteXC promoted by Shaw which he don’t like, he just trying to make Kimbo look bad you never heard Forrest Griffin personally said he really knocked Kimbo out and dumbass Dana heard the rumor and make a big deal out of it, if it really happened so what sparring session is not even a real fight more like Kimbo got ko’d in fake fight and Dana said “OH SHIT HEY EVERYBODY KIMBO GOT KO’D BY FORREST SEE EVERYBODY KIMBO AIN’T SHIT LIKE EVERYONE THOUGHT HE WAS” man shut the fuck up it ain’t even a real fight these mistakes are common in practice. Remember Matt Hamill got KO’D by Kendall’s kick to the head during spar session but so what in reality Hamill will kick his ass in the cage anyway. If Rampage Jackson gets ko’d in sparring too, I wouldn’t be suprised either.

Kimbo knows he has to constantly be in the news about what people in the UFC say about him, because the EliteXC organization is not going to last 5 years.
If the UFC doesn’t have a fight with him in it to “shut Kimbo up” Kimbo’s entire career becomes at best, a B level venture, with no hopes of ever being considered a top 10 anything.
His constant sparring of words is his only means of promotion, and his only way of ever getting onto the big stage.
The UFCs best bet would be to ignore him. Kimbo’s best bet would be to openly challenge the UFC and be bold about it.
Time will tell.

well sbud, that’s a distinct possibility based on Thompson’s physical assets & offensive arsenal. Unfortunately, given his incredibly weak chin, it’s also a VERY remote possibility.
Though the bigger man, as well as being the more skilled & experienced fighter, Thompson’s TOTAL lack of punch ( or blow, if you prefer … ) resistance has become equal parts comic & grotesque of late. Watching him wobble about as if he’d snapped off both legs at the knees in post holes after taking the most innocuous looking of blows is almost tragic in it’s hilarity.
He makes fighters with glass jaws look solid & durable in comparison. The only metaphor that fits for the poor “Collosus’s” chin, is that it’s made of fine bone china. You know, your (great?)grandma’s tea set stuff that shatters in your hand if you set it onto it’s saucer too carelessly.

Forrest told Kimbo to protect himself at all times? HAHA!! thats hilarious. Practice what you preach. After Forrest gets KOd by Page, I wouldn’t mind seeing him get KOd by Chuck.

Kimbo is sooooo hyped up…please stop posting articles about him!!! Its not like you give us every bit of news that happens in the life of Mac Danzig and he is TEN TIMES more accomplished…so please stop with all this garbage talk about a guy who hasnt even beat someone with a winning record. We are giving this guy way to much air time.

Someone on here said Kim Couture started that rumor…..soooo…. can you call a woman a pussy?
I HOPE, Kimbo is referring to Dana White saying that…. that’s perfect… I hope White fires back!

I wish Dana would shut the hell up and stop thrusting himself into our faces all the time. I continually lose respect for that guy, as I do for anyone that shows such unbridled arrogance. Little man’s syndrome anyone? Maybe he’s compensating for something…

Hey the UFC should sign Mike Tyson for the HW division. He would be a big draw like Kimbo, but with more credability. They can hand him cans, oh well I don’t know how many cans the UFC has but ya’ll get my point. Bas had said a while back when he was approched by a former boxing HW champ about training (can’t remember his name) the guy told Bas I got the KO power. Bas told him yea but nobody will stand with you, you’ll get taken down and submitted. Then he did an interview after that and said he would rather train a fighter to punch, than to train a fighter to wrestle or do jj. I guess all that went out the window with Kimbo.

Or maybe forest didnt say anything cause hes not like that it was a sparing session there is no reason to brag

i wonder if he would have cried as bad as forest did when he lost to jardine if it really happened? i think not.

I think most people misunderstood what he said. He didn’t say that getting knocked out or admitting to getting knocked out makes you a pussy. He said Dana White is being a pussy for saying it, especially since he wasn’t there. And I agree. Guys do get knocked out in sparring, but it’s not cool if you’re not a fighter to say “Haha, so and so got knocked out by so and so”.

Right. Dana White is just taking the opportunity to bash the competition, as always. And Kimbo called him a pussy for it. Dana used to claim to be a big fan of MMA but now its obvious that he is only a fan of HIS fighters. Whats wrong with just being confident in your organization (especially because its obviously number 1, and will be for a long time) instead of acting like an insecure 18 year old jock, and putting down the poor kids that ride the short bus. I began to lose respect for Dana when he aired that B.S. show on spike a while back about his charity boxing match with Tito, had me sit through it for an hour and a half, all the while thinking they would show the fight at the end, and then not delivering. He could have just written a letter or put it on the internet, instead of getting all the ratings and money that came with it. I have pretty much no respect left for him, and I think I understand why he’s such good friends with a total pice of sh*t like Ken Shamrock.

Dana always does shit like that. He says he has a “big announcement” then it’s like a sponsorship deal or some shit.
