LondonRingRules Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 --- On the media sites as passing from a heart attack. Awfully young, but maybe a life time of hard knocks and other unmentionables made him vulnerable in the end. Did better in boxing than mma, perhaps a wake up call for boxing. Feel for his 6 kids. That's really tough. R.I.P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WelshDevilRob Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 Re: Kimbo Slice Passes, Age 42 Really enjoyed his fights from the backyard brawls to the MMA to the boxing. Liked his personality. His MMA fights on rival networks/organisations did greater numbers than those on UFC. 42 is still in his prime. Rest in Peace, Kimbo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LondonRingRules Posted June 8, 2016 Author Share Posted June 8, 2016 Re: Kimbo Slice Passes, Age 42 --- One of my early articles was Bare Knucks-A Modern Twist about this fight. I picked Gunn because of his boxing credentials, but given what Kimbo eventually accomplished in boxing, he would have beat up gunn bad. Btw. Gunn is world champ on his league he created, hardly world class. As far as I know, he stays well away from official BKP bouts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pittbox Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 Re: Kimbo Slice Passes, Age 42 His involvment in MMA was controversial, but he will be remembered. Lot of people waited for his fights with anticipation, even if they didn't want to admit this fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sould664 Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Re: Kimbo Slice Passes, Age 42 Sad to hear about his passing. Is it confirmed it was from a heart attack? I used to watch his street fights but didn't catch many of his UFC fights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
