Kimbo Slice Fighting on TUF Again?
Tonight's episode of The Ultimate Fighter Heavyweights was a fairly dramatic one.
It looks like Kimbo Slice might actually get a shot to come back and fight. I know this has already been a possibility before but I think it's much more likely this time. Matt Mitrione either really is injured or is just pretending to be hurt because he's a pussy. Either way Kimbo Slice appears to be the one that will take his place if he can't fight.
The fight between Justin Wren and Roy Nelson was a pretty good one as there was decent action with some good shots landed from both sides. Roy Nelson ended up winning by majority decision but everyone agreed it should have gone a 3rd round to decide the fight because it was too close to call.
I assumed that Roy Nelson was a great fighter based on his resume coming into TUF 10 but from what I have seen so far between his fight against Kimbo Slice and now against Justin Wren, he isn't very impressive at all. One thing that's for sure is that Roy thinks he's a better fighter than his performances show. Even when he wins it looks weak.
With a little more work I think Kimbo Slice will definitely be a better MMA and UFC fighter than Roy Nelson or Justin Wren.

Kimbo Slice Almost Gets His Second Chance On TUF 10
Kimbo Slice almost got his chance to fight again on "The Ultimate Fighter 10" after an injury to Zak Jensen. He was all fired up and excited to get to fight again but as it turns out Zak was able to fight and Kimbo didn't get to this time.
In other drama from this episode of The Ultimate Fighter Heavyweights...
Darrill "Titties" Schoonover almost got a beat down from Quinton "Rampage" Jackson for thinking he was a little tougher than he really is. Seems to me if you are a contestant on a show trying to get into the UFC then you might not want to try and fight a proven former champion of the UFC.
Darrill said, "A street fight is a lot different than a cage fight" and that might be true but him against Rampage in either a street fight or a cage fight would end very badly for "Titties" Schoonover. There's no doubt that Schoonover is a tough guy but he isn't that tough! At least not yet.
Also, in tonight's fight Darrill Schoonover ended up beating Zak Jensen in the first round from a triangle choke.
Anyway that's twice now that Kimbo Slice has almost had the chance to fight again on the show. Do you think he will ever get his chance or should he just sit back and relax a bit, and wait for his next fight in the actual UFC?
