    funny thing is that even those guys aren't martial artist.... I think they can't pretty much knock the f out of anyone of us on this board...

    I really doubt anyone on this board can beat those guys with their rules.... if soo....I bet 1,000 bucks...

    Most of us aren't even close to his weight class. So you'd be right about that.

    define 'martial' and then define 'artist'...especially any of the physical arts (dance and the like) and tell me why he isn't.

    you're probably right...7* might have a shot...trying to think of anyone else big enough and in shape enough but I can't recall any...maybe B.Tunks but I think he's just light heavy...

    I might have had a shot 5-7 years ago...
    ...but, now, unless I could poke his eyes out, rip out his trachea or kick him in the nads...he'd wipe me all over that brick patio.

    Even if I was his size, the dudes head is like massively thick! I think the only way to win is to gas him.

    Thats pretty much what happened with gannon.

    yep...it's a relational equation

    Your Abilitity to Damage = A

    His Ability to Damage = B

    Your Abilitity to absorb Damage = C

    His Ability to Absorb Damage = D

    If A is greater than B and D AND B is less than A and C then you win.




    somebody smarter than me can fix that equation of course.

    He's big, and sometimes he shows some good technique, but he doesn't fight world class fighters. A less impressive (build) guy (Gannon?) took him down by wearing him down, fighting "safe". Kimbo fights dudes that come in flailing, or back down after taking a few punches, or drop hands, or fight stupid. A smart fighter could take him down, hard. Any heavyweight boxer would clean the floor up with his ass.

    I admit, though. He's a scary dude, compared ot my skinny ass.

    Tyson's still scarier. Hell, he's the scariest dude I've ever seen.

    Plus, haven't you ever noticed that Kimbo almost always has the reach advantage in his fights? Oftentimes, it isn't even close. That is not a coincidence.

    I'm always skeptical of these video streetfights. They present themselves in the most positive light they can. Throw him into a fighting league, where he can't pick his rival, and I'm sure the story will change drastically.

    MERCER VS. KIMBO

    Former Heavyweight Boxing Champ to Take on Kimbo Slice
    By Jim Genia

    (March 30th, New York City ) “Merciless” Ray Mercer, a former WBO heavyweight boxing champ and gold medalist in the 1988 Olympics, will take on bare-knuckle boxing and Internet legend Kimbo Slice in a three-round exhibition bout utilizing professional MMA rules at the Ca ge Fury Fighting Championship 5 show, said matchmaker Gary Marino today. Dubbed “Brawl at the Hall”, CFFC 5 will take place on June 16th at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, New Jersey .

    “I’m very, very excited,” said Marino. “I’ve been working on trying to get Kimbo a fight for the last year. He’s a great draw, and he’s got a huge following for his fights.” Marino added: “Ray Mercer was at the Cage Fury Fighting Championship 3 show and speculated that he’d like to try [MMA], and he called me a couple weeks ago asking me to get him a fight. It’s perfect for both guys, for their style and who they are. Kimbo’s a big banger and so is Mercer.”

    Known for their heavy-hands and raw power, this will be the first time either man has fought under full MMA rules – though Slice purportedly has been training in the sport for some time now at Miami ’s Freestyle Fighting Academy . However, the former boxing champ, who lost his WBO belt to Wladimir Klitschko in 2002 before stepping into the ring for Japan’s K-1 promotion in 2004 and 2005, will likely enter the cage ready to defend the takedown should the need arise. Said Marino: “Ray Mercer told me he has a bit of a wrestling background, and he’s aware Kimbo has been training down in Florida . He’s been talking about MMA for a while now… so he’ll be prepared.”

    With this bout, Mercer will become the highest-profile boxer to have taken the MMA plunge. “It’s very, very intriguing. I think it’s a fantastic fight,” said Marino. “Ray Mercer is definitely going to be the hardest hitter Kimbo has ever faced… I think if they both stand in front of each other, someone is definitely going to get knocked out.”

    Sooo... Kimbo is a Martial artist.

    Well maybe not an artist so much as a Martialist.

    And we can dress each one differently. There'd be a kung fu 7, an OG 7, a emo 7; the combinations are endless.

    i figured that if the sound of the slide didn't stop them then they got 1 'get out of jail free card' with the birdshot and then the 00 and the slug to finish if they weren't all the way down.

    I hadn't thought of the loading sequence like that. I don't know, though, If I have to shoot, then I'd rather feel confident it would stop the guy cold first.

    if he's within the distance of a room the birdshot is still grouped about chest size.

    one of the things about the shotgun is supposedly you can load all birdshot for use inside a house and still get the knockdown power w/o wall penetration.
