I bet he will do well. I don't think he will win it but he has been training hard for a while now and has some heavy hands. The problem is he's already 34 so if he makes it he will have a short career in the UFC

I give him respect to want to compete, he turned down strikeforce offer for some mula (of course they didn't want to pay him what he was paid by pro elite) and i'm sure he turned down some japanese orgs too. Dana claims he's not getting paid anything and only receive 5000 grand for each win on TUF just like any other contestant (Don't know how true that is). I guess he wants to prove himself.

Kimbo is no more special than other fighters who were in the sport before they went on TUF so there's no reason why they should treat him differently, imo.

Dude headlined two of the most watched MMA show in the US. He might be a sub-par fighter, but he brings in the views and monies. Rampage, Rashad, and Kimbo TUF 10 is a must see
