Bas had some surprising things to say about Kimbo
http://www.sherdog.net/forums/showthread.php?t=583812&page=3
""OK guys, I have to say something here.
I am training Kimbo right now, and I have to say that he is one of the BEST fighters I have EVER trained. He really listens to you and does what you say, do you know how hard that it? If he's dead tired, and I tell him five more rounds, he looks at me, but doesn't say anything, he just does it.
I entroduced him to the Bas Rutten MMA workout, he was SO tired, he told me that he has never been as tired. Today I was teaching him again, he asked me in the beginning "Are we ging to do the Bas Rutten workout?" But he said it in a crazy way, so I asked him "Do you want to do it?". He said "Please, yes!" I asked him why, because all my PROFESSIONAL fighters don't want to do it.
He said "Bas, I want to conquer this thing, I want to do it!" Man, he gets, Lots, and losts of respect!
All the shit that people write about him, I am telling you, and I hope you know I don't lie, he's a trooper! I wish that all my fighters would be like him. Even my wife loves the guy. He is SO respectful and uses NO bad language in front of kids (my two little daughters love him, and they don't like anybody!), I am REALLY, blown away.
He really deserves this, I think this. Can a boxer be a MMA FIGHTER? We all know the answer, but can a street fighter be an MMA fighter? We all KNOW the answer to that!
I would wish that all my fighters were like him, like I said, I can put him through every workout I give him, he WILL do it, no questions asked.
I hope you guys meet Kimbo one day, you will be blown away. I just came back from an MMA event and I brought him there, just see how he is with the fans, it's crazy!
You also know that I would NEVER train an asshole, so trust me, but he's got me, Shawn Tompkins (who trained him longer than I have,) and Randy Kathami (boxing coach for my gym) respect. I REALLY love the guy.

crazy vid

Kimbo is also training at Exteme Couture with Randy, Phil Baroni, Forrest, Jay, etc.... He should take Mercer down immediately if he is smart.
-
Phil Baroni
He's lucky he didn't end up in the trunk of a burning car in the desert! :o
-
I wonder if 'Mr Magoo' still wants to fight Kimbo ::)

nah, not possible.
he's male, weighs more than 120lbs and doesn't get full of morphine and fall asleep at the titus household.

oh shit, nearly forgot, kimb vs mercer:
i haven't seen mercer for years. i think the wlad klitschko was the last time i saw mercer. was that like 7 years ago or something? sadly his prime was probably another 12 years before that.
he got a beating that night but if he can be within 70% of that form he'll make light work of kimbo. rutten conditioning will not prepare kimbo for a mercer with a heart beat. ;)
-
Is it me or does Bas hit with an open hand. He doesn't use a fist to hit. Am I right and why.
-
all hype
kimbo owned

no gloves . . . don't want to bust up your knuckles punching w/o protection.

I did that in training. Bare nuckle to the body, open hand to the face.

Previously Bas fought in Pancrase, a league that didn't allow punches to the face.
-
I think as long as kimbo doesnt stay right in mercers face trading punches with him , then he wins
Mercer is washed up , got beat in K1, and this is a nice paycheck for him
and stop the Sean Gannon vs Kimbo vids, have them fight now and see what happens
Gannon got USED in the UFC by Branden Lee Hinkle

ray is definitely washed up and it's sad to see such an all time great fighter chasing pay days like this.
to initiate him to the k 1 by putting him in with top flight competitor, remy bonjasky in the condition he was in speaks volumes about the retirement plans for pro fighters.
he was simply caught napping and completely unprepared for a brutal kick to the head from a guy who happens to be very very good at doing just that and is wayyyyyy beyond anything kimbo has shown.
kimbo is a brawler with some boxing skills. he is not going to suddenly become a great fighter just because bas is in his camp. kimbo does the same thing ray does only he's nowhere near the same class of fighter
-
but Ray is real OLD and outta shape
this isnt the Ray Mercer who was near the end of his career when he crushed Tommy Morrison some 12 years ago
Father Time catches up

true dat
merciless has had his day and unfortunately all he is now is a potential name on the cv of some wannabe with 5% of his ability.
that ko of tommy was fucking brutal wasn't it?
-
i dont know what sounded sicker the thuds to Morrisons jaw or the HUGE thud to his bank account after he was EXPOSED. If he beat Mercer , the money he wouldve made for fighting Tyson coming out of jail ,,,OMG 10-20 million he lost to Mercers fists

true, lewis did a nasty number on him too. he would have been good cannon fodder for post prison tyson but he was shot by that point.
tommy was doing alright with mercer for a while, but i think he completely underestimated just what a dnagerous man merciless was. tommy gassed himself going for the ko (he often had stamina problems) and the barrage from mercer was completely unexpected by him i think.

Not sure why at 31 Kimbo looks like he's 41. Talk about premature balding! :P
I like Kimbo's work ethic. He's in there training hard with the best available trainers and willing to humble himself to learn things outside his element.
Kimbo's always entertained me by knockin' fools out in parking lots on video, so fuck da' haters. I hope Kimbo whoops Mercer's ass and goes on to bigger and better paydays.

WTF, he's only 31? ???

Another vid, this one is almost 5 minutes. No Bas though, but cage stuff, take downs and ground and pound stuff.

nah, not a kimbo hater at all. imo, kimbo right from the beginning has always been humble and willing to learn. i think the reason no top level trainer has seriously taken him on until now is mainly because of how late he is in the game. this has not stopped kimbo though as, since being released from prison this man has said, "fuck it, if no one wants to believe in me, i'm going to make them believers my way." the risks he has taken (always very risky with backyard brawls. no real protection for the fighters ie ref, corners, structured rules, etc) have made me a believer.
if kimbo didn't take the fight with mercer, he'd be nuts. with ray he gets a huge name on his cv at greatly minimised risk. it's just a pit that ray is reduced to this. ray has paid his dues ten fold in the ring. kimbo, as tough as he is, is a novice street fighter.
it will be interesting to see how far kimbo goes though. the man has a ton of heart and has an absolute passion for fighting. in his only losing effort i saw a guy that just wouldn't quit and was humble as fuck in defeat. he just comes back better than ever. this is why people love to watch him, because he brings it every time and what you see if what you get, there is no bullshit.
-
Age and injuries will have an effect to how long, and lucrative his career is.
-
You are right, Beast, when it comes to Mercer. This is a pretty big fall for him to be fighting a guy like Kimbo for what must be 1/10 of what he was making in his prime. He must be pretty desperate for cash. :-\

Not to be a dick, but, to me what is more important is being humble after victory which he has been (except for the Adryan fight which was just stupid) so in my opinion he gets credit for that.
It will be interesting to see how people are talking after this fight for sure.

Cool clip, but I didn't see where he owned Frank ??? They fought twice. Frank won a majority decision the 1st time, Bas won a split the 2nd time...

You've got to be kidding...Bas EMBARRASSED Frank. Made him look like a little boy. And I'm a Frank Shamrock fan, except for that bullshit he pulled in the recent Renzo fight.

There is another guy in that clip that looks like Frank. Like I said, Frank beat him in a unanimous decision, and then lost a split decision. Hope that helps.
