Bas said Kimbo will dominate one day, as a long time fan of MMA I would have to take Bas's opinion over ATOT'ers. Bas isn't just helping train Kimbo. he's putting everything behind him. Bas see's potential and his knowledge of fighting + him actually being with Kimbo gives him insight nobody on here can possibly have. From what I understand Kimbo trains his ass off every day.
Kimbo has a long ways to go, but he'll get there.
Bas's Word > shit people on here say lol.
Would Bas say that he was a mediocre fighter that will probably never get anywhere? Of course Bas is going to say he'll dominate.
Kimbo will probably never be in the UFC, EXC or even any other org he might be in, even #2 is light years behind UFC in terms of popularity and draw. Bas isn't training Kimbo to try and cash in, that's DUMB. If Bas wanted to cash in he would find a younger, UFC bound dude. Bas is a stand up guy and when he comments on Kimbo I gotta believe him. Bas has never came across as the type who was in MMA for the money.
Like I said he spends a lot of time with Kimbo, something nobody here has. We can at best guess what we THINK Kimbo will turn in to. Bas is guessing too, but his guess is much more educated. He doesn't speak much about how great Kimbo will be, but I constantly hear him commenting on how dedicated Kimbo is to training, and now Kimbo trains harder than anyone he's seen. I think that show of dedication is probably what attracted Bas to helping Kimbo train.
