As for kimbo, eh, I never believed the dude could do shit anyway. He's just a street brawler who fights other (less-skilled) street brawlers for laughs on youtube. Not saying I could beat the guy... but he's definitely not top flight material. Maybe 5-10 years from now...

I am with you all on this one. WHY does he keep his hands so low? Rashad watched enough of Chuck's fights to figure out how to beat him.
I see people with their hands low all of the time. Instant recipe for defeat in the ring/octagon and death in the street. I learned the hard way about that one years ago.
I liken it to defeating yourself with little effort on your opponents part. When we do UFC classes, I am always telling the other person "keep your hands up" "don't drop your hands as you jab or cross".....it is just amazing to me.
Maybe Chuck will change his hand placement. Not that it would really be that hard for him to do. It is really a shame to see him defeat himself with such a Fighting 101 mistake.
I loved the womens fight, Gina is great and she keeps her hands up. She has good technical skills as well.
