    that is exactly what went through my head, and i think its the reason it wasnt stopped at the end of the second. even though thompson wasnt landing bombs kimbo spent that last minute of the round not defending himself, which in my experience gets a fight called every time.

    To be fair, he was giving a thumbs up the whole time. You could tell Thompson's shots weren't really doing anything, Kimbo just didn't know how to get out.

    I got home just in time to watch this... Wow. I actually saw the first fight at work too... The ref was DEFINITELY told to stop fights very early to make them look less graphic. The Kimbo fight stoppage was absolutely horrendous. He should have lost that fight, for sure. So retarded. So, SO disappointed.

    I wouldn't say it's "fixed" per se, but the ref was definitely told that if Thompson was ever in trouble, give Kimbo the win. There's really no doubt about it. Gary Shaw isn' known to be a credible man, in fact, he's known as a crook.

    As someone who has never cared about MMA before, today left exactly where I was prior to tonight. Thankfully I flipped to other stuff during the downtime, so I only wasted a total of about 20 minutes.

    count the illegal shots kimbo throws, count the shots he takes while not defending himself, count the shots james takes and gets stopped for even though he looks clear as a bell(well for james anyway)

    which is exactly how it's going to be for other people too. elitexc was a horrid choice to bring mma to networks.

    no, i don't mean fixed as in scripted totally, but that everything was being leaned towards kimbo.

    Lucky me there was some fucked retarded ass telethon on the station that carries CBS here, so I couldn't see the fight.

    Re: EliteXC: Primetime on CBS

    After talking to some people that have watched the event plus reading stuff online... I am extremely pissed right now. Apparently the Lawler + Smith fight was amazing but stopped because they wouldn't give Smith time to recover... And the Kimbo fight fucking pisses me off. I think had the fight not ended where it did, Kimbo would have TKOed him eventually, but it's the point of the matter.

    I think that Kimbo fight should have been stopped. That flopping ear was disgusting and he did say he was going for it again... not in the best interest of the sport to have that happen on prime time.

    and 3 premature stoppages are good for the sport? gtfo, I'd rather have well refereed fights on regular cable at 1 am than this bs. it wasn't even for the ear, he didn't go the doctors about it.

    also...who the fuck cares, it's an ear! i fucking hate elitexc now...i really was trying to like this, but that was too horribly obvious. the lawler fight sucks to end like that as well. lawler is one of my favorite 85'ers...he's such a stud and people really have no clue who he is. i can't wait for him to get back in the UFC and make his presence felt again.

    Re: EliteXC: Primetime on CBS

    Refs and medical personnel were probably told to be more careful than usual since it was on tv and viewers apparently needed to see how babied the fighters are.

    Baroni is still the same old and got owned.
    Carano fight was pretty good, did Young say she couldn't continue?
    BS stoppage on Lawler fight, 5 minutes was not given to recover. Of course he can't see right after it happens so then you wait for the time to end and ask again, was she new or something?
    Kimbo wasn't in any real trouble at the end of round 2, I don't think shots like that should stop a fight. He would have been in big trouble if he got taken down again in round 3 but that standing tko was pretty premature. Thompson really shows a KO face every time he gets hit and that kinda makes himself seem in more trouble than he may be since he kept on standing.

    Edit: Thompson should have really done something to that ear beforehand.

    Re: EliteXC: Primetime on CBS

    I'm all for Kimbo Slice and all I think he is a cool dude, but can someone explain WTF happened in that Sean Gannon fight? It was bullshit, it didn't even look like he connected that many punches on him. Did he show up hung over or something?

    Anyway, does anyone think the eliteXC will be on torrent?

    Terrible fights. Terrible card. Terrible broadcasters. Good job showing MMA off to the rest of the country Elite. This is why you're going to be bankrupt in a year.

    I enjoyed the chick fight but other than that what I saw sucked. Way too much bullshit fluff time filler and not enough fighting. I didn't see the Kimbo fight but I hear that even Pro Wrestling couldn't have scripted a better "fight" to keep their golden boy unbeaten.

    I enjoyed Gina's fight, Young said that she was unable to continue.

    If Kimbo plans to still be a "top" heavyweight, he needs to get on that treadmill and work on that cardio. He was clearly gassed out in the 2nd round. I hate to see gassed out fighters..
