They had supposedly agreed that it was going to be just a "boxing match", fists only, but when Kimbo took that punch and went to grab Gannon's legs it all went a bit nuts from there on in. Kimbo's "crew" looked like a bunch of crazy mofo's - did you see the size of that huge black dude in the white t-shirt? ed: biggrin:

i read somewhere that it was a stand up only, no shin/kicks, they said nothing about submissions, thats why at one time sean gannon (white dude) was holding kimbo, im pretty sure that knee strikes were allowed. but i may be wrong, and ya that huge black dude was a fucking beast.
and now supposable another fucker has challenged kimbo to a fight.

would like to clarify a few points - i don't like being accused of being a cheater, especially by people who don't have a clue what the rules actually were. we originally wanted a no rules match, but kimbos people demanded special rules to protect their fighter. we wrote a (very) short list of rules and both parties signed off on it prior to the fight. they asked for no groundwork and this was agreed to. we never agreed to no submissions, and we can't be held responsible if his team was so ignorant of our sport that they didn't realize you could do submissions standing. same with knees. they asked for no kicks and we agreed. kicks were clearly defined as "striking with any part of the shin or foot". knee strikes were completely legal. i followed the rules to the letter, but kimbos team violated them repeatedly.
the rules were signed by both parties prior to fight time. our team was completely aware of the rules, and all the chaos stemmed from a lack of real fight experience on his team. it was like when tyson had his buddies work his corner in the buster douglas fight, and they didn't even bring an endswell. kimbo is tremendous competitior and deserved better.
i don't know if his medical insurance is as good as mine, and i wrote to iceberg about setting up a fund to help him if he needs it. if he isn't hurt, he still deserves some bread for being such a warrior and having a tremendous heart. anyone who was entertained by the fight should kick him a little something, he earned it.
