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?

Will Kimbo Slice Fight Tonight on TUF?
If you happened to catch the preview of tonight's episode of The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) Heavyweights, then I am sure you noticed that they made it appear as though Kimbo Slice would be fighting again tonight, or at least soon, despite losing last week to Roy Nelson.
Also, if you go the ultimate fighter portion of the Spike TV website, you will see a video that makes it seem as though he might be fighting tonight due to Marcus Jones being hurt. Actually, you can see that video below...
Is Kimbo Slice back again?
Let's hope that Kimbo Slice fights tonight, and wins!
I guess all we can do is watch TUF 10 tonight and see.

Kimbo Slice Loses to Roy Nelson
Kimbo Slice vs Roy Nelson results:
Kimbo Slice lost to Roy Nelson in the 2nd round by TKO (referee stoppage) in tonight's episode of the ultimate fighter heavyweights.
It was a pretty good fight with both fighters getting in some good shots, especially Kimbo, but the much more experienced Roy Nelson's ground game was too much for Slice to handle and he eventually got the better of him.
To be honest, I didn't expect Kimbo to win this fight since Roy Nelson has a lot of MMA experience and is a former IFL champion. However, even in losing Slice showed that he has definitely improved his MMA fighting ability and will be a force in the UFC some time the near future.
It was the most anticipated fight in the ultimate fighter history and it did not disappoint, even though it wasn't exactly a super exciting fight.
It's very apparent that Kimbo Slice still needs to drastically improve his ground game but I think you have to give him props for fighting so well against a much more experienced and extremely tough opponent.
He's also a great guy even when he loses!
