I was a looking forward to this fight a lot as I have been quite impressed with Kimbo’s personality and get your head down work ethic (at least that’s how the show’s editors have put him across anyway). I knew he could punch, those shoulders and arms are awesome but i wasn’t sure how he would handle being taken to the ground. Nelson is good fighter though, despite the belly, and knew he had to get him onto the floor. Once down, Kimbo didn’t have a response and he couldn’t come back and only the bell saved him the first round giving him the chance to take a breather.

I hope they find a way to bring him back for another fight as I am sure that a lot of people would like to see him have another try.
