Kimbo Slice vs. Ken Shamrock.
Thoughts: If I'm Shamrock, I don't take this match.
Being 44 has nothing to do with it, as Randy Couture has proven, but Ken hasn't won a fight since 2004, And is 0-5 since. (Two losses to Ortiz, Rich Franklin, A Japanese fighter, and Robert Berry) Ken is already a UFC Hall of famer and MMA Legend. What do you gain by fighting Kimbo Slice?
A Win: Winning possibly sets up Ken Shamrock vs. Frank Shamrock, but that's about it.
A Loss: A loss further cripples his reputation. A loss to Kimbo Slice adds to Kimbo's hype, with a win over a seasoned MMA fighter and legend. Would make Ken 0-6 since 2004, and really taint any honor he once had.
Bottom Line: Ken is the most dangerous competetion that Kimbo has faced in his 3 MMA Bouts. Are Ken's submission skills enough to even touch Kimbo? Ken tried to bully Tito, and Tito smashed him. Ken tried to wade in and wait for an opportunity against Tito, and Tito smashed him. It just seems like Ken is the next one to fall at the hands of Kimbo Slice.

sorry dude this isnt a huge fight its just proves to the world that ken is washed up because thats the only people kimbo will fight to protect his purse and dont think for a second that's not the reason why kimbo fights hes all about the money and nothing else.

I think, and don't take my opinion for much as I only occasionally watch, but I think at the very least this will be a fun fight to watch that will only build Kimbo's rep amongst occasionally viewers like myself, further peaking interest in him.
