Soooo ... anything going on over the past couple weeks? No? Cool, I'm out.
Oh wait ... actually, this has been one of the craziest times in the history of this crazy sport? Alright then. On to this week's edition of Fightweets.
Remembering Kimbo Slice
@RuckerYeah: What's your favorite Kimbo Slice memory?
A whole lot of people were saddened by Monday's death of Kevin Ferguson, a.k.a. Kimbo Slice. Kimbo (and yes, he gets first-name treatment) was one of the most authentic people I've encountered in any walk of life. From the moment he started to make his name as one of the original YouTube sensations, he had all sorts of hype around him, But if it wasn't for the fact one of the realest dudes you'll ever meet was at the center of it all, someone with flaws like the rest of us who was striving to do better, someone who didn't place himself above anyone else, then he would have disappeared the moment he was knocked out by Seth Petruzelli.
