Kimbo Slice needs to get fed. A wise man once said “to get the bread, you must fight”. YouTube sensation, Elite XC dream crusher, and now unretired MMA fighter, Kimbo Slice will return to the MMA cage on June 20th in St. Louis. Sitting 50 feet under the Earth’s surface, Bellator matchmakers and Scott Coker sat for weeks trying to decide who would be Slice’s first opponent under the Spike TV MMA banner.
With only one named circle on the whiteboard, Kimbo Slice will make his Bellator debut versus UFC hall of famer Ken Shamrock. According to birth records, Ken Shamrock was born in 1964. On June 20th in St. Louis, Missouri Ken Wayne Shamrock will be 51 years old when he steps into the cage versus Kimbo Slice. Sources also tell us Kimbo Slice is 41 years old.
Elite XC never die and please someone have Seth Petruzelli on speed dial in case Shamrock slips on a banana peel, cuts himself shaving , or stubs his toe on June 20th.
The fight that almost happened, well, it’s happening! #BellatorMMA http://t.co/rIwvjFFUBM pic.twitter.com/VhUbaiHa9K
