Kimbo vs Mitrione is official for UFC 113 on May 8th
Posted on March 8, 2010, 11:56 PM by NinjaKimbo Silce will make his second appearance in the octagon against his former roommate Matt Mitrione at UFC 113. Recently rumors have been flying around saying that Kimbo has dropped out of the fight and will likely face James Toney, however, these rumors are false because recently Kimbo vs Mitrione has been made official and he will be heading to Montreal on May 8th.
Kimbo is coming made a successful UFC debut at the Ultimate Fighter 10 Finale, where he defeated Houston Alexander via Unanimous Decision and now he will face the man who knocked out Kimbo's roommate/sparring partner in TUF 10 Matt Mitrione.
Mitrione, who made his professional debut at TUF 10 Finale, convincingly knocked out Marcus “The Darkness” Jones, and will try to go for 2-0 inside The Octagon as he will take on the heavy handed Kimbo Silce.
Other fights on UFC 113 card are; Machida vs Shogun rematch for the Light Heavyweight title and a grudge match between Paul Daley and Josh Koscheck.

what?
im not talking about ufc 113, im talking about ufc fight night 22, the card on the same night as strikeforce nashville.
did you even read what i put?
how is this funny
I don't think that Matt is that impressive of a fighter. He can take a hit and that is about it. He knocked out Big Baby who got KOed by Schaub. Kimbo can take a hit, and give em back. Plus his ground game has steadily been improving.
I'd have to disagree about Kimbo being able to take a hit... Did you not see that fruity gay guy with flowers and unicorns tattood across his entire ass, KO kimbo with the lightest little limp-wristed jab ever?
Have you ever seen any fighter, in any MMA fight ever, be dropped by a lighter shot? I honestly can't think of one.
I like Kimbo, seems like a nice guy, but... He might have the worst jaw in the entire UFC.
Have you ever seen any fighter, in any MMA fight ever, be dropped by a lighter shot? Would love to see it.
do you do drugs? like heavy drugs?
seth hit him like u should and it was a tko the ref called it cuz of the punches he was taking on the ground it was kinda a weak jab i thought kimbo was going to kill seth at first seth did a good job
not the worse jaw ever but defenly the most overrated fighter in MMA history thats for sure!
as long as a heavyhanded? well we didnt ko houston!
so he isnt that heavyhanded!
and ofcourse his jaw isnt of iron!
im sick of all the hype , the kimbo shit got to end!
im more exited about jon jones vs vera!
now thats a real fighter prospect!
go jones!
GO KIMBO!!!!
Meathead better bring his hands cause Kimbo's gonna want to stand & trade. And we know Kimbo is improving his ground game, we can't say the same for Meathead.
i like how kimbo's tryna do some takedowns, especially the first one he gave to houston alexander that almost broke houston neck!!! keep it up kimbo, keep slamming them fools
cool
wtf dumb fight...there still scared to put him against someone good,screw these TUF fights
Glad he is not fighting Toney. I want to see Toney go up against a ground and pounder. I hope Dana has that in store for him. To send a message to all the fags in boxing that think they can hang.
should fight fedor
I hope Kimbo knocks his ass out! We want Kimbo vs Toney!
The UFC doesnt want me to fight because i want to co promote ,Besides i dont want to fight in ufc anyways i aint into freak shows.
