is that really a boston cop or is it an ultimate fighter who beats him?

The white is guy is a Boston cop. He just fought in the UFC 55 and he is still a cop. Unreal...

The Black guy with the beard is Kimbo Slice an underground street fighter.

Here is a link of his background

This fight took place in Miami. (hence the 305 insignia on the shirts) There is an "underground" series of DVD's called the Battle of Perrine if you can get your hands on them.
I've seen 2 others.

Kimbo, cousin of Emmanuel Augustus, is a badass Miami enforcer who fights for purses of 3-5 gs on a regular basis. He'll put up his money up against yours to find out who is superior. He doesn't care if it's at your place of work or in your own backyard. If you're willing to put up the dough, he'll fight you for it. In the clip below he attempts to earn more green by going heads up against another stocky brawler named Byrd.



For those of you who don't know the full story behind that video, here goes.

Kimbo Slice (amazingly that's his last name) is an ex-con who did ten years of hard time but was finally released about 10 months ago. He fights in underground boxing matches from time to time winning purses that range from 3-10 thousand gs. This year alone, he's 9-1. His lone loss was suffered when his opponent used mace. Kimbo acknowledges the loss because he says, "I shoulda kicked his ass much faster and knocked the bitch out cold. And before the fight we said no weapons, but didn't say no mace."

Backed by the owner of a popular Miami based porn website, Kimbo earned his first 10 thousand dollar purse when he knocked out that same opponent in a rematch. The bout took but a mere 10 seconds. Not taking any chances, Kimbo pounced on his opponent 5 times after he was out cold.

Kimbo is well aware that underground fighting is illegal but he cannot help it. He can't earn a decent living through legit means because of his prison track record. If you were a big bad ass in his situation and someone came up to you and said, "I know someone who will fight you for 10 grand heads up", you might consider it also.

Kimbo is now considering turning pro through the advice of his cousin, Emmanuel Augustus, and local boxing trainers in Miami. Once he turns pro, he will leave his underground fighting days behind. As he contemplates the countless possibilities, Kimbo will continue to fight in underground battles to provide for himself and his disabled mother. As Kimbo so eloquently put it, "That's how a nigga eat."

he lost to the cop it looks like....is that his only loss???? he should stick to underground fighting......his style would not translate as well as some think to boxing.....why no kicking or knees??? he certainly is an intimidating force though

I’ve lost my share in the pen. I don’t keep track but I’ve won much more than I’ve lost. Since I was released almost one year ago, I’ve gone 9-1. My only loss was to a punk that brought mace to the dance. I was kicking his ass and he used the mace as I went in for the kill. I accept the loss. I’m a man. Before the fight we said no weapons but we didn’t say no mace. He regretted doing that. I knocked him out within ten seconds in our rematch and pounded on him five more times for insurance. He lost all his front teeth but we’re good friends now. It’s about respect.

UFC was telling the story about Gannon fighting him(KIMBO) and the only way the fight was going to happen is if Gannon played by the rules and "stand up fighting only" no MMA I guess Gannon almost lost his job as a cop because he took part in this. He may even still lose his job because of the UFC fight.

Fuck, who needs a bodyguard. Shit, if I was big time, I'll hire his ass as my bodyguard. But I also will carry a rocket launcher to protect myself from him. I dont a gun can slow kimbo down. Maybe a tank....

he is extremely raw, but if they can get him in better condition he will have a shot......the other fight i saw where he broke the guys eye socket was a nice weave and left hook.....classic move....however, the opponent was not very good...all over the place.....MMA guys would destroy him unless he got in better shape and was able to ground fight....the fat cop held him at bay and he was slow as a mother, but had a good chin i will admit....i am interested in seeing where this guy goes....love his hairstyle though

i've seen that guy on sublime before..he's nuts, but without watching the whole boston cop fight and just the beginning, why does kimbo's "boys" always have to jump in? why cant there ever be a real straight up 1 on 1 fight anymore?? i hate that shite more than anything....
