Anybody watch the fights?
Who would win Kimbo Slice vs Rampage Jackson
possible future fight. And if UFC Brock Lesner gets
better could he defeat Randy Cuture heavy weight
champ. both are very simaliar.
I like Kimbo better than Jackson based on the one clip I saw of each.
first off, randy would kill brock.. i think that ones a blowout..
of slice and jackson that ones more of a tossup.. both could get knocked out with one strike.. so far slice has only fought subpar guys, and has easily crushed them, exept for that one fight where a noname nearly had him. he deserves better fights i think hes learning a lot..
if the fight way today id give it to jackson but 15 months away i would say slice
This is a good fight. Two flexible but grappling oriented fighters, Rampage and Kevin Randleman. An entirely different finish than the other fight. It's interesting that neither fighter takes down the other despite both being grapplers...their defensive grappling skills were too good and they had to resort to strikes.

Here's a very pretty fight between a Shaolin monk and a practitioner of the style I studied, Tae Kwon Do. This shows a kicking master in action, and no, I'm not talking about the TKD guy. The Shaolin fighter is beautiful. He makes us look bad...we're supposed to be the kickers. :'(

Check this out. Mixed Martial Arts vs TKD.

At 2:00, the MMA guy shoots in for a hip embrace takedown/tackle. Do you think the TKD guy could move into a Horse Stance, stay on his feet and punch and elbow the other guy in the back of the head, kidneys, spine etc?
Originally posted by AThousandYoungFrom that position he's looking for a double leg grab so if the momentum didn't knock you over then he'll be looking to throw your balance by pulling your legs out from under you. I doubt you'd be able to stay standing in horse stance.
I know, but that's a street style tackle, and I wonder if a horse stance will counter it.
Might be better to try and absorb the impact by dropping your back leg into a long forward stance (or whatever the TKD equivalent is) and trying to catch them in a neck/choke hold.
