Should be a fun fight to see. Who wins I don't know, but lets face it that Hamill/Jones fight is going to be AMAZING!!!

Houston has no chin, Kimbo got caught with a punch to the temple, he is going to destroy Alexander. Kimbo by KO in the 1st, earning KO of the night.

After both Jardine & Sakara got cocky and sloppy hence 'he caught a break'.

Both fights Houston should've loss but he didn't and he shouldn't take full credit for those first two wins because Jardine got cocky and sloppy after rocking Alexander. Pretty much the same can be said of Sakara. And like said, the bus stopped afterwards. I should say 'his luck ran out afterwards', but it's MMA, so I'm not sure if there's such a thing as 'luck' in the sport..

Sakara looked like he never wanted to be in the same cage as Houston, yet alone fighting him. It is quite a stretch to say Houston caught a break against him. Yes houston has power but may lack skill wise else where, but give the man credit for his wins.

He's not the greatest fighter, but I really like Houston as a person. He's a single dad raising six kids and he donated one of his own kidneys to his daughter, so I find it hard to ever root against him.

I'm going with Houston by first round TKO.

Good luck to both of them.
I think Kimbo would be in big trouble @ 205, his quick and nimbleness would not look as clean @ LHW. But I have been impressed with his head movement and quick feet. Maybe.....just maybe.
There is a very real possibility that even Houston Alexander could work Kimbo on the ground.
I always thought Kimbo should train for the baddest take down defense, and probabky wrestling. He looks to have no idea about how to get back up from a TD.
As for being with ATT, his biggest question will be if you can teach an old dog a new trick.
I wish them both a lot of luck. Many reasons to like both fighters.

Kimbo was 250 or over when he started MMA. Cutting to 205? Crazy....

you know, as much as I want to see Kimbo knock the fuck out of Houston, i actually hope he comes in and does something to surprise the whole world and show some kind of progression in the sport. We all know he has the power to knock out anyone he connects a real good punch with...

flying scissors technique to leg lock, hahaha...no but really, i hope Kimbo is the one left standing.
