idk we wont know if he would do well if/until he gets there, dana is talkin about him after only being 1-0 (2-0 if u count mercer) so who knows, if he submits a ground fighter maybe he'll be in the ufc, idk sounds like dana dosnt have much respect for him, oh well i could care less about kimbo if/until he gets some more wins and all around skills

I'm not saying that Kimbo would come into the UFC and dominate by anymeans, but you cant make me believe that the likes of Eddie Sanchez or Soa Palelai or Justin Mcully would take him apart. Dana just hates on any fighter outside of the UFC

i think he has a better ground game than houston.
He has better trainers and sparring partners with bas at his side.

I have to agree with Dana on this even though he shouldn't be out there bashing every fighter that doesn fight for him. Kimbo would get killed by any of the top Heavyweights in the UFC end of story.

Today was Dana White's turn to fire another salvo at a rival promotion, this time EliteXC. The comments were made with regards to what he thought were KeviN "Kimbo Slice" Ferguson's chances in UFC.
Article
Kimbo is a tough dude, a lot tougher then a lot of the guys Dana White has given an opportunity to. I think Dana is pissed because Elite EX is doing a great job of marketing him, he missed out.

I think tuvok500 said it best. Dana's just responding to what the reporter asked him. Its no shock what he said Shaw has been saying some real outlandish stuff about Kimbo and that he is better than any UFC fighter. Now all the true MMA fans knows Shaw is full of it. Not that Dana doesn't have his moments but Shaw is 10X worse. Shaw wants to feed people (your avg fan)cow pies and tell them its the best diner in town. Whats bad is Shaw has a big outlet(CBS) to sale his cow pies from. Whats even worse is Shaw had nothing good to say about MMA till MMA became a money maker. At least Dana has always backed MMA and does have the fighters to back his claims. Kimbo is no were even close to a top 20 and I think he would get hurt fighting any top level competition right now. Maybe 2 years down the road he will be a top level fighter but as of right now he is low tier fighter.
