Title: Mark Kerr
Post by: Scimowser on May 04, 2006, 08:56:46 AM

........says he is coming in around 225 for his fight against Wes Simms. He also said that he wants to become a 2 weight champion ala Randy Couture and fight at 205! At that weight he will look completely different but should be strong enough to compete with the best

thoughts?

i think the intimidation factor alone is gonna help him in his first few fights..but once the mma world figures his shit out...then we'll see! gonna be kinda tough to call it! but you never know..



i'd like to see him smashing some fuckin faces again honestly  ;)

his mystique and aura of invincibility has long gone but his name alone is enough to make people think twice about taking the fight

if he can adapt to the modern fight game he could very well get a top 3 ranking in either weight class

He's done, his whole thing was overpowering people with ruthless agression and 'no fear'...  Well, we all know he was hopped up on pain killers, hence the 'no fear' and vitamin S helped him overpower people...

He'll never be the same, and he'll never be competitive in the shape he is now.  The IFL pictures were eye opening, even in a shirt you could see his gut.

I can't imagine him at 205; I'd love to see him make a comeback, but it'll be tough.  Everybody's stepped up their game since his prime...

I was at the ACF fight last night where Kerr was supposed to fight Sims. He claims he broke his hand and couldn't fight. It was total BS on Kerr's part.

Yeah, lots of threads over at mma.tv about this.  Kerr's fighter days are over, he should stick to coaching.

No, because the rules have evolved.

says he weighed 222lbs. He gave a lot of bullshit excuses, Simms berated him in the ring in front of everyone but all Kerr did was look at him

I have now lost all interest in him

Simms was paid his fee plus his win bonus! Kerr was paid in advance also but im not sure if he repaid it
