Kevin Ferguson aka KIMBO SLICE
We all know who Kimbo Slice is, but who the hell is Kevin Ferguson? Well, they're the same person. I guess Kimbo is going to reveal more about himself now that he's attempting to make a legitimate career in the sport of Mixed Martial Arts.
Kimbo is legendary on the internet for the videos of his backyard and parking lot brawls against scrubby fat dudes and wannabe tough guys, but make no mistake about it, Kimbo Slice is a tough SOB. Kimbo did lose one of his amateur fights that can be found online, against a MMA trained police officer named Sean Gannon, who later went on to fight (and lose badly) in the UFC. Since then, Kimbo Slice has had more amateur/illegal/backyard fight videos posted online and won them all.
Prior to his MMA debut fight with former boxing heavyweight champion Ray Mercer on June 23 2007, Kimbo was training with Bas Rutten and other well known fighters, and is said to be a great student of the game. Ray Mercer on the other hand, was evidently not expecting this fight to go to the ground, although he did manage to end up on top, he landed in a guillotine choke and tapped out.
