kimbo punches pretty well put together. his hooks are short, he follows up the right very well and his uppercuts are short and powerfull. one reason he has tremendous power, is because his punches are short and crisp. kimbo appears to be well balanced when throwing and connnecting his punches. his connect ratio is very high. who ever made the ridiculous statement that his technic was not good, is either just trying to start some static ( because he or she was told to do so ) or he or she may be comparing kimbos punches to that of a smaller man. ( 160lbs ) just so you know, there is nonthing technical about a wide open off balace hate maker......

MMA is full of guys who cant punch and cant take a hit.
Kimbo is excellent at both!
Whoever said that is a straight up idiot.

you are right! kimbo has not showed any punching skill. he has fought has beens and never will be's. if he ever fights a talented puncher he will get his *ss handed to him. he is a total joke. anybody who defends his "skills" is in a dream world and should keep it tuned to the "pro" wrestling! i would'nt be surprised if the has been shamrock takes him out early...
