Holy snikes, I just watched Overeem win the K-1 world Gran Prix from last night in devastating fashion(the 1st mma fighter ever to win it) . Overeem is built like a beast. I think he stand a good chance to beat Fedor when they meet. Overeem has looked impressive in every fight he has been in the past 2 years and I think he has the confidence to beat Fedor.

He has the confidence alright. Roid confidence.

Kimblo came in under weight! Can't wait to see him fall....again.

Didn't Badr Hari take Overeem out in the semis?

Yep, he did. Sammy Schilt beat Hari to win.

What the hell did I just watch? Have I slipped into an alternate dimension? Kimbo Slice beat Houston Alexander?

I think Houston would have faired better to slug away. I didn't like his plan and it made for a very boring fight, imo. Kudos to Kimblo though. This time, I did see some improvment on the ground and that throw was sic! But remember, he was fighting a much smaller guy that also has no ground game.

Bones beat the chit out of Hamill. Too bad about the DQ though. I see a re-match.

Big Baby's stand-up is sooooo bad and it showed.

WAR Roy "Big Country" Nelson! I thought he would win from the start of the season. Loved the entrance music.

Overall.......meh. It was an ok show.

My overall enjoyment of free cards is always greatly diminished by how many frakking commercials they make us sit through. Liked seeing Big Baby take a nap--his reaction to Junk's eye poke incident was disgusting, childish, and in my opinion more sincere than his nice guy act.

HUGE Big Country fan but I just don't know how he's going to fare with other more talented heavyweights.

LOL! wans't that great. I really don't think Dana gave Kimbo much of a chance against Alexander, but it was a good matchup. Houston making boring circles kept himself awake and how he survived that slam; ouch.

Kimbo's future and success will be limited in the UFC, though I hope he makes the most of it and we get some good fights.

It was hard seeing any of those guys beating him. it'll be interesting seeing how he matches up with the mid-upper tier HW's.

I disagree. I think he fed Kimblo an easier fight with HA. A light-heavy with no ground game that would stand and punch. Too bad he didn't do that though.

really, I swore the annoucers were saying he won the finals of the Grand Prix. Then again I don't know much about kickboxing or which grand prix this is.
