That was the KO, the actual fight lasted a little longer:

Not much longer... I thought Bledsoe was either dead or that he took a dive at first. Still not fully convinced he didn't flop. That KO looked straight out of a Fight Night game highlight.

First guy who can avoid Kimbo's punches for two rounds will probably beat him. He throws to kill and didn't have the cardio or it in MMA, so I doubt he has it in boxing either.

Boxing still suits him helluva lot better. Nice KO :)

Tyson fought at least one heavywieght that was 190ish pounds. Jirov, Toney, and RJJ all fought at HW barely over 200. If you can make Cruiserweight, you meet the requirements to fight a sanctioned fight at heavyweight. I'm not sure on this, but I think you have to be under 187 to be restricted from HW.

Irrelevant, but anyone seen this:

I don't think so. He's a one-dimensional puncher, but I don't he'll get any farther in boxing than he did in MMA. If you remember, he also hammered out a few cans in MMA before struggling against more legit competition. With his limited skillset, he could consistently win in either sport provided he only fights low-tier competition. Against anyone with a hint of journeyman-esque credibility, he'll have a 50/50 shot at best.

I think he'll turn out like a reverse version of Butterbean. Butterbean was successful knocking out random goons in barnyard boxing matches, and for the most part he's doing the same thing in MMA.

You don't think so, but then more eloquently say the same thing I tried to? Boxing suits him a lot better than MMA because his limited skillset lies in punching, but that's it. I don't see him getting very far in it either. He hits hard (or seems to, anyway) but can't really take a punch and gasses out quickly. Sooner or later (probably sooner) he's going to get PTFO'd by someone halfway decent.
