The street fighter turned professional mixed martial arts fighter Kimbo Slice showed that he's the ultimate fraud, getting destroyed by Seth Petruzelli tonight with a first-round knockout that took just 14 seconds.Kimbo was scheduled to fight Ken Shamrock, but Shamrock pulled out with an injury. Petruzelli, who had been scheduled to fight Aaron Rosa on the undercard, was a last-minute replacement for Shamrock in the main event.
Kimbo had a significant size advantage: Petruzelli's fight with Rosa was scheduled to be a light heavyweight fight, so he weighed in at 205.5 pounds. Kimbo, a heavyweight, weighed in at 234.5 pounds. But it didn't matter. Petruzelli simply overwhelmed Kimbo at the opening bell. Kimbo had no business being in the cage against anyone with even a minimal level of MMA skill.
Petruzelli improved his record to 10-4. Kimbo falls to 3-1 and is now revealed as the ultimate fraud.
UPDATE: Watch the video of Petruzelli knocking Kimbo out.

Your title says it all
That fight wasd B.S staged or the ref was payed off. Kimbo was still trying to get up when the ref was HOLDING HIM DOWN. put me in a ring with Seth I will knock him out in under a minute. Clean out the ref won't be trying to hold him down because he will be out cold unlike kimbo. Nuff Said!!!!!
Oh please!! Everyone loses at some point! It doesn't make him a fraud because he lost to a guy he knew nothing about after Ken Shamrock having to back out.
Things happen, and Kimbo won't let it keep him down.
dana white said he wouldnt last 1 round in the ufc, i knew that but know you novice mma fans finally realize it.
FRAUD FRAUD FRAUD FRAUD Harsh its not, he should be 2-2
ok, Ultimate Fraud is a bit harsh. he had about 2 hours to prepare for a guy who was much, much younger, faster and stronger than Shamrock is these days, so its whatever, really
Much stronger and younger? Clearly you are a ladyboy or just a straight lady. The younger guy was 205 pounds. Thats a light heavyweight. Its not age group you jackass its weight and Kimbo had the advantage. Kimbo didn't have time to prepare? Prepare for what? He isn't skilled at anything but throwing punches. He lost to a smaller boy that had taken a year off. I wish Kimbo could fight someone decent and win so he could get a shot at the big boys that might kill him. KIMBO SUCKS. The young guy didn't have time to train for Kimbo either you monkeys. He would have subbed for either guy...he didn't know he was fighting you stupid fools....
i say that it was staged. i dont think that little jab could knock him out. not if you look at his youtube video
FRAUD!!! SHane On You CBS!!! Did Any1 See the Way the Referee JUMPED on top of Kimbo? DId u happen 2 see How the Referee Was holdn the cage 4 Leverage to Keep Kimbo Down? Shame on u CBS 4 Showing Close up Replay ONCE!!!!! 4 Swings to the CHEST, last 1 grazes Kimbo's Chin, that Instant, Ref jumps on top of Kimbo, And if Any1 watches the BACKground, the Dam REf IS wrestling 2 keep Kimbo down.
The cut on face happens from Leather gloves, It Was a Great Stunner though which "Dazzled" Kimbo, But Not enuff 2 Knock Guy out. Compeletly Fixed, Think about the $$ involved in the Casino's +gambling today 4 the bets. They Werent "OFF", By 5:45est time Vegas+ every other Betting organization had Bets still on, ONLY the ODDS Changed, KImbo + many ppl walked Away w/ Alot of $$$$
LOL wuld u Be Happy+Exploiting Your House PArty at the end of LOSING Fight????
Youe are a douche bag. He was not knocked out by the jabs, the ref called the fight.
Um, yeah. A well timed jab can knock a guy out. Go find Joe Stevenson v. Melvin Guillard from the UFC on Youtube. Stevenson finished Guillard with a jab just like the one Petruzelli gave Slice.
And as for the argument that Kimbo had no time to prepare...come on, you think this guys prepares. He came out swinging and got caught.
You Kimbo fans are a joke...but thanks and keep those ratings up because this circus is sure entertaining!
Haha, Kimbo won't let it get him down? If Elite XC tries to put Kimbo Slice anywhere near a main event again, they might as well change their name to Barnum and Bailey.
wow yup yuppp, hey anyone know where to see cyborg's fight tonight?
what ajoke
Kimbo is the biggest chump of all MMA!!
Agree!
Weirdest fight, ever.
Petrucelli didn't seem to connect; Kimbo didn't look to coverup. The follow-up strikes were weak. ... For those saying he didn't prepare for this opponent - 14s?
All I can say is WTF, this isn't Tyson mid 90s knocking people out in under a minute, atleast they got maybe a round or two in , but 14 seconds that was buls***. I've seen MMA before and there was none of that, one kick and about 10 punches.It may have been free for us to watch but I say we deserve some money back for watching this farce. Then they give each other praise and credit and Kimbo hollers about an after party and giving props out to his boys.
Kimbo got beat. A half-power jab knocked him down and Seth pounded him to victory.
Kimbo is a total joke - got his ass knocked out - he is all hype and just a thug street joke. Go back to hanging out on the corner in the "hood". Yeah right - smoke your weed and learn how to speak English.
