Kimbo Slice Talks UFC Debut Against Houston Alexander at TUF 10 Finale
TUF 10 competitor and YouTube sensation Kimbo Slice recently spoke with UFC.com about his upcoming debut in the UFC against Houston Alexander, at the TUF 10 Finale on December 5:
He said:
“Considering that I’m cutting weight and that it’s my first fight in the UFC, it means a little bit more to me than all the other fights. But as far as pressure, you feel the pressure and everything weeks out, but coming close to the fight, you kinda bite down on your teeth and you know you’re getting ready to get in there, so that pressure goes out the window. I’m a natural heavyweight. The last time I was at this weight, I was in middle school.
I kinda like the guy to be honest with you. I’m a fan of him, so to fight him would be a damn good thing. It’s kinda like how I feel about Mike Tyson. I like him so much to the point to where, win or lose, I wanted to fight him. Regardless of reputation or anything, I’m sure of my game and now I’m being trained by some of the best trainers out there, so I’m confident with what I’m coming with.
Just let it play. Let the cameras roll and don’t move from your seats because somebody’s getting knocked out. I’m coming in to knock this dude out or to be knocked out. And that’s the fun part of it. I’m not afraid to be hit. I’m not afraid to get knocked the hell out, wake up a few minutes later, well-rested, shake his hand and say ‘hey man, good fight, I’m still a big fan of yours’ or however it goes. I’m coming to fight, and that’s what you get with me. I’m coming to knock someone out.”
