Spoon, I've watched parts of the Elite shows on Showtime before.

Is EliteXC simply another MMA league like UFC? Is it the 2nd biggest behind UFC?

[Guest]

It is along the lines of the UFC. They have a good core of fighters.
It's up there with Strikeforce and now Mark Cuban's HDNet Fights.
The WEC would be the 2nd best in my book but it's owned by the UFC so it goes hand and hand with that.

Nick Diaz is one of the best fighters in the world and Kimbo Slice is a freak of nature. Check Kimbo out on YouTube if you haven't already. Scary shit.

Diaz was pissed at the stoppage but his cuts were bad. He ran out of the cage and was flicking everyone off. He hasn;t changed one bit and I love it.
The Kimbo Slice fight was bad, it reminded me of a Tyson fight where he just swung and the guy fell down. I'm not sure if he even hit Cantrell and he went down tapping like a bitch. Seemed a bit shady.

I checked out this dude and he serves up some pretty good backyard beatdowns. In one fight, he beats down one dude, and then turns around and serves up a beatdown on another guy. great entertainment for all.

Kimbo hit Cantrell watch the replay he hits him with a short uppercut and a wicked body shot right under his arm which is what dropped him. Im no Kimbo fanatic but the guy can brawl I would love to see him fight Alexander Emilyenko. Diaz is a punk I laugh at his beatdown by KJ Noons the same way I laughed at Charles Bennet getting KO'ed but he did beat Takanori Gomeii which is no small feat so as a fighter I respect Diaz.

I disagree about him landing a good shot.

Here is part of the fight and all i could find online.

Yeah I watched it again and I stand by what I said that underarm punch did the damage its a strange way to get a knockdown but it worked. Whats your Opinion on M-1 and where can I see their fights?

[Guest]

He scratched him armpit, terrible.

M-1?
I think it's a joke to be honest. Fedor hasn't fought anybody in a few years and won't until his contract with that joke of an organization is up.
He just wanted to get paid. He has no interest in proving he is the so called called best Heavyweight.

Thats whats been bothering me about the Fedor fanboys he has fought no serious competition in a LONG time. I think hes a really talented fighter but I want to see him get challenged by someone who isnt a tomato can.
