OT: Kimbo VS Shamrock is OFF for tonight

Ty Hope · Oct 4, 2008

Breaking news. Shamrock apparently got cut above his eye in training and is not going to be cleared to fight tonight.

There are rumors of either finding a last minute replacement or finding a doctor that will clear Ken to fight anyway.

(source: several different mma sites)

Thats ok.

Maybe they will focus the whole show around Gina Carano now.

Ty Hope · Oct 4, 2008

She ALMOST didn't make weight again. She had to strip completely naked to make weight yesterday.

I personally think Shamrock is already setting the stage for an excuse, when he gets beat down again. I could probably whip his ass.

Or, think about it like this. The latest is that a doctor has in fact cleared Ken to fight tonight. If he does fight and is in fact cut, this could all be a work to protect Kimbo. If he starts to lose the fight, they could have a doctor stop it at any time. Ken winning is the last thing they want tonight, and I have a feeling they would set all this up to make sure it doesn't happen.

Maybe, but that is a little hard to pull off, especially if Shamrock is winning.

I am sitting on the PC trying to find out what PPV channel its on then DUH!!!!! I look at the listings for CBS and BAM its there at 9. I'm a dummy!!!

from the MMA site:

The main event for tonight's EliteXC: Heat between Kimbo Slice and Ken Shamrock is close to being cancelled.

Shamrock suffered a cut above his eye since yesterday's weigh-ins.

Stay tuned for more on this developing story...

Ty Hope · Oct 4, 2008

Fight is officially OFF!

However, word has is that Seth Petruzelli will step in as a replacement. Personally, I like this fight better anyway.

MojoDan · Oct 4, 2008

Ugh...

rob167 · Oct 4, 2008

OT for Ty Hope, but very nice clemente in your sig. i cannot remember if i ever asked you on the old beckett site or not, but is it available? if so, how much to take it off your hands?

MojoDan · Oct 4, 2008

Are they going to have him fight a replacement or just scrap his fight all together?

Guest · Oct 4, 2008

This a bunch of bull.

Shamrock realized he would be leaving with a fist hole in his head so he probably bladed himself.

rob167 · Oct 4, 2008

sam, you and i don't see eye to eye on too much, but this i believe you are dead on!

Seth Petruzelli would be a good fight if that is indeed the case. He has a good ground game.

I really am mad about this. I wasn't pulling for Kimbo or Ken, I was just interested in what was going to happen. Now we will never know.

I kind of hope this blows up in XC's face if they do have a replacement stand in for Ken, and Kimbo gets knocked out cold.

Just cause I smell a work.

Lets just hope he can take a punch. Because I don't want his ground game to only consist of lying there after Kimbo lays him out.

I am very interested to see how Elite handles this
