2008-02-19 09:02:00 http://myspace.com/mikestreetEl-iteXC held its latest event in Miami (dubbed “Street Certified”)…KIMBO VS TANK…KIMBO SLAPS THE EARTH WIND AND FIRE OUT OF TANK
Elite XC recap
2008-02-18 02:36:00 My impression of Slice hasn't changed. He's a bad, bad man. The strange thing was how defeated Abbott looked before the fight'd even begun. He could barely look Slice in the eye. Weird. I was surprised the ref let the fight go as long as he did, Abbot had his lights switched off at least twice before the ref ended it, but I suppose it's better to let the decision go unquestioned than have a few people in hysterics that "they called dat shit too early, son."Unfortunately, the only other fight I was able to see was the Edwards one. The knockout was pretty sweet. Berto was just holding his leg and you could see the 5-second thought process:Okay, keep your balance.Relax, I'm near the cage, I can lean on that.He's not moving his head.I wonder what would happen if...Game over.Looking at my predictions versus the results, I'm thinking that I should no longer do any research on fighters because I did a bit better than my previous records of 50/50.The big result of the weekend ...

Elite XC
2008-02-17 01:44:00 Slice v Abbott: I remember reading an article about Kimbo Slice online, which inevitably led to googling his name and realizing that he's one scary looking dude. He has one of those "I-will-headbutt-you-on-princip-le-if-you-look-at-me-for-more-t-han-two-seconds" kind of faces. Even though he's up there in age (33), Slice is the next big thing for Elite, the way Lesnar is in the UFC. They're also incredible athletes who seemingly should've ended up playing football professionally. They both seem to have the right attitudes for success (if you haven't seen it, check out Slice on E:60, can't find a link, sorry).The big difference is in their first "legit" opponents (seeing as both fighters official fights had previously lasted a grand total of 73 seconds). Even though Tank Abbott's style isn't nearlyas dangerous to Slice as Mir's was to Lesnar, their is much more pressure on Slice in this fight. Why? Well, I was going to tell you right now, so calm down asshole!The reas...

Elite XC "Street Certified" Betting Odds
2008-02-08 01:03:00 ELITE XC "Street Certified" airs February 16 on Showtime. The event will take place at the Bank United Center in Miami, Fla. Some how the "big fight" for this show is between two guys who draw about as much attention as the repubilcan primaries in the MMA world. Elite has pulled in some good talent, but their pool is shallow and it shows in this card.Main Card Bouts:"Kimbo Slice" Ferguson (-450 Bodog) vs. David "Tank" Abbott (+370 Bookmaker)Not sure how many MMA fans actually care about this fight. Old school dirt bag fighter, vs old school street fighter, I guess. Tank has had his ass whooped by some of the legends of the sport and landed a few haymakers of his own.Kimbo of course is an internet legend, with a basic boxing style. He has been training with Bas Rutten for some time now and Bas seems to feel he?s got what it takes, well at least to beat ?Tank?. I?ll agree with Bas, but there?s no reason to put any money down on either of these old bastards. I can?t believe this is a h...

Gives you a better feel for who the guy is, kinda like the Brock Lesnar video. So what has Kimbo been doing in the days leading up to his fight with Tank? He’s been working on updating his website, apparently he’s an html code and graphic designer? and training for the fight. Check out the video. YouTube Direktvideo link

Tank Abbott Vs. Kimbo Slice to Fight at Corpus Christi on November 10th?
2007-10-19 17:44:00 Still no word on the Kimbo Slice vs Tank Abbott fight that was suppose to occur last month, October 12th at Cage Fury Fighting Championship, but was canceled. It was rumored that possibly EliteXC would pick up the card within 2 weeks. However, this didn’t happen. EliteXC then signed a multi-year contract with the King of the Streets, Kimbo. Since then, it’s been announced that Kimbo will fight at Corpus Christi on November 10th 2007 at the American Bank Center. However, EliteXC is unable to announce who else is on the card, until the contracts are finalized. Could Tank Abbott possible fight Kimbo on November 10th at EliteXC? Time will tell….
Around The Horn
2007-10-08 06:40:00 Match booking was the name of the game this weekend, as some blockbusters (and equally spectacular surprises) were made official.FOXSports has the Nogueira-Kongo bout, first scheduled to take place at UFC 79, now happening in "early 2008," according to Dave Meltzer. This fantastic match (and potential #1 contender fight) should be one of the bigger wars we've seen in years. It features one of the true veterans of the sport against the HWs newest star. I know it seems as though the division has a new star every week (Gabriel who?), but Kongo is LEGIT.Matt Hammil is "in shock" (read: furious) with the Evans-Bisping booking at UFC 78. I can't really understand it either, considering that Rashad Evans-Tito Ortiz and Michael Bisping-Matt Hammil were probably the two most unresolved bouts of the year, but Joe Silva knows what he's doing.In my most disappointing moment of the weekend, the Kimbo-Tank fight, to be held at Cage Fury 6, has been canceled. I don't know quite what to ma...

2007-10-02 08:08:00 I follow MMA casually and I’m far from a diehard fan, so perhaps I’m a little late on this one. Kimbo Slice is set to take on Tank Abbot on October 12th.
