Who cares how good he is, he's just looking to get paid.

Cage Fury Fighting Championships: Kimbo vs. Mercer (6/23, Atlantic City, Pay-Per-View)
The month's guilty pleasure is undoubtedly the prospect of seeing an aging pro boxer take on an Internet-bred street fighter -- the kind of pay-per-view you watch with the blinds closed.
Incredibly, the legend of Kimbo Slice continued even after he was handled by mediocre MMAer Sean Gannon in a seedy dojo fight last year. Despite lumping Gannon's face, Kimbo was undone by shrunken lungs and a smaller heart. In an effort to rebuild interest, the charismatic Miami native resumed his pummeling of street toughs in boat yards.
Now he's headlining a MMA card against Ray Mercer, a once-credible boxer who displayed questionable gameness in a short K-1 stint. (Absorbing his first leg kick from Musashi, you could practically hear Mercer's "Oh, sh-t" reaction.)
The bizarre pairing is homage to the free-for-all days of the early UFC, one that promises to be full of sloppy exchanges and ignoble ground work. It's the fight equivalent of the big, dumb summer movie; you're entertained in spite of yourself.
