TUF Crowd: Kimbo Criticizes Own Ground Game
You asked and we found the answers. “Ask the TUF Crowd” gives
you the chance to throw your burning questions to the cast
following each episode of “The Ultimate Fighter 10.”
This week we tracked down the man of the hour, Kevin "Kimbo Slice" Ferguson, following the most-watched fight in the show’s four-year history.
For Kimbo: A lot of people are criticizing your ground game and despite the practices in your ground game with Rampage, it didn't really show in your fight with Roy. Was his weight really that much of a problem, that it made it hard for you to use the new skills you learned?
-- Greg from Upstate NY
Kimbo Slice: His weight was a little bit of an issue, but not that much of an issue. The skills I learned with Rampage, I didn’t learn them enough. I didn’t go over everything enough to be able to get out of that position. I’m still working and learning on the ground and I have a long way to go. I’m criticizing my own ground game. I have to work on not getting back into that same crucifix position again.
