Miami, Florida -- Kimbo Slice knocked out MMA legend Tank Abbott in what MMA News Desk editor Arturo Collozo Jr. accurately labaled "a slugout" for EliteXC in an official time of 43 seconds. Kimbo, the Internet street fighting legend billed out of Miami, was a huge favorite in the one-sided fight.
Kimbo Slice Knocks Out Tank Abbott
MMA News Desk's Collozo reported, "(The) fight opens, (with) no touch of gloves. (The) crowd is on absolute fire. Tank (delivers) a stiff left before bulling Kimbo into the cage. Kimbo swings wildly and connects, and Abbott drops to that mat to grab a leg. Kimbo holds down Tank's head and starts smashing him with punches behind the head"

The blow by blow continues, "(The) referee steps in and gives a stern warning, physically blocking Kimbo and scolding him. The fight is restarted. Ref steps in and stops for some reason. Looks like something thrown into the cage. Kimbo gets huge reaction for throwing back out and wants Tank. Here we go, and Kimbo is hammering Tank, dropping him several times, until just knocking Tank out and Tank falls Ric Flair -style face first on the mat"
"It's over, and the winner in 43 seconds is Kimbo Slice. Goldberg keeps saying Kimbo "puts asses in seats." Post match Kimbo praises Tank, plugs his afterparty, gives a shoutout to his homecrowd in Miami. Elite XC has a cult star on their hands at this time."

More at MMA News Desk. Elite XC needs to be careful, since Kimbo is a slugger and as Brock Lesnar (who is much stronger and far faster than Kimbo, not to mention a champion wrestler) learned against Frank Mir in the UFC. If they keep feeding Kimbo guys like Tank, he'll continue to look good. No word on Kimbo's next opponent.
