Yeah, actually they do. Pretty much every highschool/college male knows who Kimbo is. He is a demi-God to bros across the country |

I think Elite XC will be booted after the first 2 shows. They could put on the most star studded card possible and they still won't garner good enough ratings for CBS, guarenteed. Millions of people aren't going to tune in for Kimbo vs. whoever and Ken Shamrock vs. whoever.

I bet they will have Berry fight Kimbo. And considering Berry is pretty much a can, he will get smashed.
And lol who the fuck wants to see Frank vs Ken now? That fight would be retarded.

You really think that will be a deal breaker?
Just from a laymans point of view I would figure that most people outside of the UK or the message boards are blissfully unaware of what Shammy does in smaller shows and other parts of the world. I wouldn't think this loss effects his ratings value much or at all. Its not like its a fight for a belt or title shot, its only a circus match. And it'll still be the same circus match even if he loses again tomorrow.
He's still "Ken Shamrock" (TWMDM).

You could be right, especially considering they put Tank Abbott up against Kimbo.
It's just sick, man. They keep giving Kimbo these squash matches.

I know what you mean. I just don't take it personally. Heck, its good for a laugh and its only Kimbo.
Now if Kenny turns out to be Fedors next opponent, thats something to get mad about.

Man around here no one knows who Kimbo is. Never ran into anyone that knew who he was.
You say Chuck, Tito, Rampage or Anderson, they all know who i was talking about. |

I hope they last for years to come.
I guess we will just have to wait and see.
Also note that UFC did a 3.1 on spike.
CBS is in alot more households than spike so could do better there first show. And they only doing 4 shows, so we will see.
