Ken Shamrock to fight Kimbo Slice this Saturday

Wait... Shamrock? He's still fighting?

Apparently he is, and this Saturday we'll see him go toe-to-toe against Kimbo Slice in an EliteXC extravaganza. No, we have no idea what EliteXC is either other than the fact that its one of those media giants trying to cash in on the UFC's success. As far as Shamrock is concerned, BOY, I hope this guy is insured.

After becoming one of the best fighters in the UFC, Ken Shamrock has been reduced to a shell of his former self. He has this pathetic five-fight losing streak since making his debut in the EliteXC and signing himself up for a fight against a guy like Kimbo Slice is just dumbfounding.

For what it's worth, Shamrock is confident as always. And despite losing five straight fights in a cage, he believes he will be the first one to beat Kimbo this Saturday night.

''I'm gonna be too fast for him,'' Ken Shamrock said. ''He's gonna eat my punches and kicks.''

Quite confident huh? And for some reason, he's not worried about the fact that during this five-fight losing skid he's been having, he failed to survive past the very first round in each of them.

WOW.

''The only time he knocks anyone out is when they get tired,'' Ken Shamrock said. ''I don't respect his power or grappling ability. I'm gonna go in there and whip [him].''

It is no surprise that Shamrock is once again confident that his mastery of submission fighting will give him the improbable win over Kimbo. Of course, we all know better than to put our money on this old fart come fight night. Kimbo's response on Shamrock's comments was simple.

''Break my leg, will he?''
