KansasHusker Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 I thought this was very interesting. It would be an entertaining matchup, puting 2 guys in the octagon that both have something to prove. Read Here Quote Link to comment
LouisianaHuskerFan Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 Definitely would be a stand up battle. Neither would take it to the ground. Houston looks to be fighting at the TUF finale because he applied for a license and it was granted to fight that night in Vegas. Hope it does happen. Really like both of these guys. Not sure who I will root for. Probably go with Houston because he is such a big Husker fan. Quote Link to comment

Looking for both guys to succeed and it sucks they have to fight each other to take a step further in the sport. It will be fun to watch anyhow. Quote Link to comment
rawhide-jr Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 I think Houston would dominate him, mostly due to his Muay Thai clinch and ground and pound... Kimbo is clearly out of his element when someone closes in on him... Quote Link to comment

Kimbo is clearly out of his element when someone closes in on him... Kimbo doesn't seem to know what to do on the ground despite being a quick learner as they said on TUF 10. With all that muscle, you would think he could have some sort of ground game, but he hasn't shown it. Quote Link to comment
rawhide-jr Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I see it a lot when I train with huge guys new to jiujitsu.. They just give in to panic when on their backs... Quote Link to comment

KansasHusker Posted December 5, 2009 Author Share Posted December 5, 2009 TUF Finale : Kimbo vs. Houston!!!! Houston defeats Kimbo by KO in the 2nd round... I can definitely see that happening. No reason for Houston to take a step back here with this fight. Just get the win by TKO like you should. Quote Link to comment

I actually have some respect for Kimbo. A very laid back kind of guy from what I've seen on the Ultimate Fighter. Quote Link to comment
KansasHusker Posted December 6, 2009 Author Share Posted December 6, 2009 Wow. Kimbo looked good on the ground and especially with his slam takedowns. Houston Alexander looked like it was his first UFC fight, no Kimbo's. I think it might be time for Houston to reconsider his UFC career, not sure he has what it takes to keep up. Kimbo looks to be on the rise though. Quote Link to comment
