Here's a great article regarding the fight,that includes the explanation of the fight stoppage. REFEREE OF KIMBO SLICE FIGHT RESPONDS TO CONTROVERSY PRO MMA
Steven Davey spoke with that referee, Dan Miragliotta, about the controversy surrounding the Saturday Night Fights. Miragliotta seemed very agitated that people would say the fight was a work or fixed and goes on to say the Kimbo fight was not stopped because of the ear, he says he stopped the fight because of the uppercut, cross, hook, uppercut combination that knocked him into the fence. I looked into his eyes and saw the blank stare and knew he was out of it. I grabbed him to stop the fight and when I grabbed him he thought he was still fighting Kimbo.
Miragliotta goes on to talk about the Scott Smith / Robbie Lawler fight and the eye poke. He says that Scott Smith told him I can't see, I'm gonna get knocked out? and that he changed it a little bit at the press conference when he said ?I would PROBABLY get knocked out. Miragliotta says you can not keep telling the referee that you can't see if you want the fight to continue. He also confirmed that Scott Smith did have a broken foot and if he had quit the fight because of the broken foot it would have been a loss for him and most likely would not get a rematch, so Miragliotta insinuated that maybe Scott Smith used the eye poke to get out of the fight with a no contest instead of a loss and that way he could also probably get a rematch. He might actually be on to something with that theory.

Yeah, but ignore doesn't block their posts via bpspy, which a lot of us have running at work, and let's face it, some things you read, and no matter how much you say you don't want to respond, it's so idiotic, that you need to respond, if for nothing else to say "What... the... fuck?"

I'm no MMA expert but I say more power to Kimbo. He is training hard and trying to become a legit fighter.
He isn't there but I applaud the fact that he knows it and isn't running his mouth. Keep training ,keep fighting, and keep that mouth shut. That is all he can do.

I know. It's just, I've never put anyone on ignore. I kind of like seeing posts that piss me off, it makes me think. But, yeah, it's coming to that soon.

Coming from you, that's about as good of a compliment as it's going to get. :tongue2:
(I'm in this shithole we call Zanesville now, it's just as terrible as I remembered it)
I think I remember Jay Crawford from ESPN saying Slice manhandled the opponent in that fight the other night. /random on topic comment
