So much for EliteXC
ESPN - Reports: EliteXC tells employees, fighters it's out of business - MMA (http://sports.espn.go.com/extra/mma/news/story?id=3655102)I wonder if now I can hire Kimbo to follow me around and protect me from cyber-bullies.

Read that this morning. The talented fighters will find work, but Kimbo's 15 minutes may have expired. Dana White of the UFC has stated time and time again that he would never give Kimbo the time of day.
Supposedly CBS/Showtime and Affliction Clothing were supposed to collaborate in purchasing ProElite, but negotiations broke down after word of ProElite being under investigation by the Florida State Athletic Commission, from Seth Petruzelli's comments about his fight with Kimbo.

It wouldn't even be a contest, Lesnar would eat Kimbo alive.

Lesnar doesn't have much of a martial arts back ground, but is a legit wrestler. i agree with you guys, he would destroy kimbo

Destroy isn't the word. Lesnar actually has talent. If he can continue to stay motivated and not discouraged with tough losses he is going to be a force in the heavyweight division. The biggest question for him is whether he can take a punch. A Kimbo fight for him would be worthless at this point in his career. He needs to step up competition a little. Eventually I'd like to see him fight Tim Sylvia but not until he gets a little more polished and some experience udner his belt.

At this point, Lesnar would destroy Tim Silvia. Silvia for some reason isn't the fighter he used to be. He's gone soft. I'd like to see him come back and fight like he did when he was the UFC Heavyweight Champ, I just don't see it happening.
Lesnar fights Couture for the UFC Heavyweight belt in November at UFC 91. If Lesnar can't take care of Couture in the 1st round, I don't see him winning this fight. Lesnar had so many opportunities to put Heath Herring away, but didn't. A guy like Couture will take advantage of that.
As far as Kimbo goes, Dana White has offered him a spot on The Ultimate Fighter if he is interested...
