Its a freak show, neither would last 5 minutes against a decent pro, i know royce had a few tax issues, lord knows why ken is still fighting.

Big John looked embarrassed to be reffing that fight, then he was probably still shocked by the kimbo fiasco of a match, he didnt things in thet fight i have never seen a ref do lol

I know why bellator are putting these fights on...$$.. but they really do nothing for the sport

Well, sure. But that's like saying none of the athletes in the Legends Football League (http://www.lflus.com/) would last 5 minutes in the NFL. That doesn't mean the the LFL isn't entertaining. Frankly, I miss this sort of craziness in UFC.

That being said, I'm glad to hear Dada 5000 is okay.

Dhafir Harris, aka Dada 5000, remains hospitalized but is in stable condition Saturday, according to a statement provided by the cage fighter's family.

Harris' manager, Mike Vazquez, told ESPN.com that the fighter had been in critical condition overnight and is expected to remain in the hospital for a "day or two." Harris also suffered a small fracture to his orbital bone, Vazquez said.

Harris, 38, suffered a TKO loss to Kimbo Slice at Bellator 149 on Friday. The heavyweight fight, which took place at Toyota Center in Houston, ended when an exhausted Harris (2-1) stumbled awkwardly to the floor at 1:32 of the third round.

The Miami native, who hadn't fought in an MMA contest since 2011, was removed from the cage via stretcher. Bellator officials told ESPN.com that shortly after the fight Harris was able to sit up and was taken to a hospital for precautionary reasons.

According to statement put out by the Harris family, distributed by Bellator, Harris suffered from "extremely high levels of potassium in his blood, which led to severe dehydration, fatigue and renal failure."

The statement goes on to say that Harris' high potassium levels were likely a result of losing 40 pounds for the bout. The maximum weight at heavyweight is 265 pounds, which Harris measured during an official weigh-in Thursday.

"Dada showed the heart of a lion in the cage -- not backing down throughout," the statement read. "He worked extremely hard preparing for the fight and stepped forward for three rounds against a tough veteran. He kept digging through the adversity -- leaving it all in the cage for his fans and supporters. You can never take that away from him.

"We ask for the public and media to respect Dada's privacy as he recovers."

Harris was the focus of "Dawg Fight," a documentary released last year that revolves around Miami's culture of backyard brawls.

But the legends dont fight on prime time cards with other pros. They dont take air time and money away from real fighters....:rolleyes:

Its a freak show much like the old pride freak shows, only difference was they could actually fight for 5 minute before gassing and falling over.

The dada kimbo fight was like watching to drunk out of shape frat boys trying to hit each other whilst walking through jelly, and this was the co main event, when was the last time you saw a ref stand a fight up when one guy was in mount ......

And strangely, I find that immensely entertaining. Don't get me wrong. I do hear what your saying, Frost. But it still amuses me, strictly for its entertainment value. Heck, I'm easily amused. ;)

Maybe it's just that I can relate to gassing out. :o
