That comment has me a little nervous, there better not be any favoritism involved allowing Kimbo to hang around longer then he should by protecting him somehow. If he sucks so bad that he can and probably will lose in the first round then they need to let it happen whether or not its good for ratings.

It sounds a little shady. Still they may be able to shift the fights around through editing so that Slice's fight isnt the first fight shown. Also, fighters stay in the house after losses so its possible he could still be around even if he loses early.

Re: Kimbo Slice a TUF 10 contestant
They started filming today, so that dude is just speculating. And for all we know, Kimbo may be one of the better fighters in the house, so people may not want to fight him off the bat.

I think its awesome Kimbo is on the show. It'll obviously make next season 100% more interesting then this season. I just wish they could've gotten Lashley on there as well.

Kimbo is nothing but a sideshow.

He shouldn't even be a "professional" MMA fighter right now. Blame whoever signed him to Elite. If he improves his skills however, I might give him some props. But for now he's a sideshow. I hope that quote isn't true about him not competing early. Don't give the man any special treatment just because casual fans know about him.
