Serious question.

It's possible that he just gets out of MMA completely.

If not, then I really doubt Strikeforce would want him. So I see two options: 1) either bum around in promotions like Shine Fights, Art of War, KOTC, etc or 2) go to Japan.

If he's still going to do mma he needs to go to japan asap. Who doesn't want to see kimbo vs sapp? Kimbo vs Minowa? Kimbo vs sakuraba? Kimbo vs Jose canseco? They would love him over there.

He doesn't need to be fighting legitimate fighters. When meathead was on top of him in the second round he looked like an old black homeless man getting beaten up with no desire to be there. Plus his knees are shot.

Personally I think he should just cash in on Kimbo Slice the brand and do B movies and commercials and whatever else. He can make money without getting punched or kicked in the knee.

Word.

I think that both in terms of his success as an MMA fighter (i.e. actually getting some wins) and his financial success, Japan is his best option. I wonder if he has actually been approached by DREAM to fight over there.

I think Kimbo should go to strikeforce and fight a couple more bums then head to Japan for the freak show tour. I read he was making 350k-550k a fight in Strikeforce/EliteXC. So I say fight 3-4 fights in SF then go to the freak shows

Do you really think that SF would offer him a contract at this point?

I know they like money and all, but I really think they want to do everything they can to avoid the reputation of the organization that takes the UFC's rejects.

I could see them throwing him on a CBS card. Hershall Walker/Kimbo would do big ratings.

I'd watch it. I'm guessing Kimbo takes that one.

Yes I think Strikeforce would be thrilled to have him back. Give him 2-3 cans and then put him up against Fedor
