Caution: Strikeforce Overnight Ratings Don't Include Overrun, Even Though the Entire Main Event Was in the Overrun

Fast overnight ratings are out for Strikeforce.  The overnights only measure the ratings from 8:00pm to 11:00pm, which means the numbers contained do not include the main event of the show.  The main event started at about 11:02, so the entire main event was in the overrun, which was not mea...

Then that's when he came back with the Kimbo comment, saying I wasn't that spectacular.

I was doing what I was told the last nine...

Opinion: The Long-Term Kimbo Game

The more I think about it, the more I can’t see the long term logic in the UFC’s pursuing Kimbo Slice.   The short-term benefit is pretty obvious. This season of TUF has enjoyed some great ratings. That means Spike can command a higher price for advertising slots, and it gives Dana White a large a...

Revisionist History: CBS Didn't Kill EliteXC

CBS actually did a very good job promoting EliteXC.  They helped make Kimbo Slice and Gina Carano national stars, and contributed to media onslaughts before the first and third EliteXC shows that far surpassed what the UFC gets on a regular basis.  What did the people at EliteXC expect?  Th...

Opinion: "Kimbo Slice Sucks"...Does It Matter?

In 2008, Dana White bet on Brock Lesnar while Gary Shaw bet on Kimbo Slice.  White gambled on Lesnar because he hoped that Lesnar's amateur wrestling background and size advantage would make him competitive in an otherwise weak division.  It was a big gamble, and it paid off in spades.  The...

Neither Kimbo Slice Nor Roy Nelson Impress in the "Biggest Fight in Ultimate Fighter History"

There have been rumors for days about putting Kimbo against a standup fighter in December to give him a chance to get a knockout.  Maybe it will work.  But Kimbo will never be a competitive UFC fighter; he's too old to catch up in the wrestling and jiu-jitsu departments.
