(Kimbo training with Gabe Ruediger, who must have told Slice about what a great time he had on TUF)



Last time I checked, it's not April's Fools Day so I guess that means this isn't a joke: Kimbo Slice is going to be a contestant on the next season of TUF:
The UFC president has repeatedly insisted he would not allow Slice to compete in the UFC unless he won his way onto the show by competing on “The Ultimate Fighter.”

Slice has called White's bluff and will appear on Season 10 of the highly rated Spike TV series, White has confirmed. Fighters live in the same house and train together, and then fight during the show in a bid to earn a UFC contract.

His appearance, along with that of former UFC light heavyweight champions Quinton “Rampage” Jackson and Rashad Evans as coaches, should guarantee massive ratings.

“It should be interesting, given some of the things I've said about him,” White said.

We've thrown a lot of shit Kimbo's way for tucking tail and running from MMA the moment it got hard. If this doesn't turn out to be a desperation move after a falling out with Gary Shaw (who holds the keys to Slice's backup boxing career), we're gonna have to apologize for all that.

Regardless of the reason, Kimbo going on TUF takes some serious stones ... you saw last week the kind of manufactured drama Dana White can weave with the whole Jason Pierce / Frank Lester situation. And let's not forget that the show's editors can pretty much crucify you several times over if they decide to. If Dana and the gang wrap up season 10 and decide they can't make any money off Kimbo Slice the fighter, they're going to sell Kimbo Slice the joke instead.

He's not making it through that house. I can't wait to see the street fights that ensue once some drunk frat bra' gets clownish around him. This will be solid entertainment

Too bad Kimbo broke up with Bas, who could have added an interesting taste to the TUF 10 stew as a guest coach.

He will lose easily. He is just not that good. Sure will be good for ratings though. Wouldnt it be funny to see him make it through the house and then see Dana pimp the guy he used to call a joke? Maybe Kimbo gets his shot at Chuck in the Finale?

Liking the picture caption.
Somebody's gonna get their ass whooped. Hopefully Kimbo brings in the MILFHunter crew as guest coaches.

Fuck! Now I have to watch TUF again.

Dear Affliction,

When the organization you’re competing with gets a guy from the corpse of one of it’s former competitors (a guy that headlined cards) to compete on it’s reality show and that action generates more media coverage than you putting the best fighter in the world against a chronically overranked opponent, it’s probably time to pack it in.

Hugs and kisses,
Subo

wow.

I was wondering if they'd let him on TUF.

He'll make it into the house. The UFC sees him as ratings gold so he'll probably get an enormous can to get into the house. Once he's in there the UFC probably won't give a shit because he's already been exposed as terrible.
I am the Liquor
I have heard there will be no fights to get in the house. Everyone picked for the show gets in.

Is it not pretty likely that the majority of the other contestants on the show are wrestlers? Kimbo is crazy, all he has are his hands, any half decent 265lb guy could just lie on top of him for 2 rounds and he's gone. He deserves credit for being on the show though, its gonna be tough for him

im not sure thats gabe rudiger looks more like alex shonouer

this entry actually made me lol - which is rare around here


the thought of kimbo being on tuf is just too much! I might actually watch this one

who cares if kimbo is on the next tuf.

he will be out of the house in the first two weeks.

i would be surprised if he doesn't fight and if he left because he got hurt or skin infection or some lame excuse.

He has already had his ass handed to him by one tuf dropout/ like he really needs to get embarrassed again.

Now if they can get Lashley onto the show and put them them on opposite teams, TUF = must see tv

As Clint mentioned, that's Alex Schoenauer in the pic.
