Now a household name in the fighting community, Kimbo rose to fame pummeling guys that go by the names of "Afro Puff" and "Big Mac" in literal backyard and bare-knuckled brawls.

Thanks to a huge internet following, Kimbo decided to take his ruthless fighting skills to more legitimate settings. Training under MMA legend Bas Rutten, Kimbo Slice has improved his conditioning and ground game greatly to where he is no longer merely considered a street fighter.

In his match last June with former heavyweight boxing champ Ray Mercer, Kimbo showed off his new skills by choking out former Olympic champion in just over a minute of the first round. Since, Kimbo defeated Bo Cantrell in just 19 seconds of the first round by submission due to strikes.

Don’t be surprised if Kimbo reverts back to his fighting roots in an attempt to go blow for blow with one of the sports’ most dangerous punchers. The owner of some of the most devastating knockouts in MMA history, Tank will enter the cage with one distinct advantage: Experience.
