UFC light heavyweight “Assassin” Houston Alexander (9-4) has confirmed his rumored matchup versus “Kimbo Slice” Kevin Ferguson (3-1) at SpikeTV’s The Ultimate Fighter 10 Finale in Las Vegas December 5 during an appearance on The Todd N Tyler Radio Empire program on KEZO-FM in Alexander’s hometown of Omaha.
The matchup is rumored to be held at a 215-pound catchweight.
Alexander TKO’d “Tank” Sherman Pendergarst (11-15) at Adrenaline MMA 4 in Omaha September 18 after losing three consecutive in the Octagon by first-round stoppage.
Slice was TKO’d by “Silverback” Seth Petruzelli (11-4) at EliteXC in Fort Lauderdale in October 2008 and lost again in an exhibition bout versus “Big Country” Roy Nelson (13-4) on SpikeTV’s The Ultimate Fighter 10.

dude this is crazy. Kimbo has a chance to prove himself in the UFC, besides his terrible loss in TUF show. He better be ready for some ground game.
lol You are so right. Can’t believe that 2 face slime ball is rolling with Kimbo now, after all he said about him. Man, I actually feel bad for Kimbo, he keeps getting used like a 2 dollar hooker. And the UFC doesn’t need Fedor huh lol Fuck Dana White for not being straight up, and fuck him for being dishonest to the fans for so long about the merits of the matchs and PPVs. Peace.
Do you remember how much s–t Dana talked about Kimbo while he fought for EliteXC??? Well same goes for his rants about Fedor. He wanted Kimbo because Kimbo sold out arena’s. He brings up the ratings. UFC is all about the marketing and selling the images of their fighters, so of course he wanted Kimbo. Same goes for Fedor. Dana White knows that his HW division needs Fedor to be validated.
But back to this match-up, Kimbo will have to step up his game all around because Houston will most def be kicking his legs, tryinig to soften him up. Once Kimbo begins to drop his hands to defend against the leg kicks, BOOM! KO….
Kimbo is simply a flash in the pan. Houston Alexander is gonna kill him, period. Kimbo’s legs are soft as hell and he showed that to the world on the Ultimater Fighter 10 show, with the ice bath and hot tub and all the whining about how he doesn’t whine and wants to fight, bla bla money bla bla. How many times does this guy have to be humiliated by professional fighters before he gets it?
I can’t wait to see Kimbo lose by murder in this match. Dana has never really talked shit. He said that Kimbo is the may be the toughest guy at the barbecue, but he’s not a mixed martial artist. As for Kimbo, I’m glad he’s getting into the octagon cuz him being in the octagon will only end in his murder and I’ll be glad when that lice infested hobo is killed.
I THINK KIMBO WILL PROVE HIMSELF IN THE UFC AFTER HE BEATS THE GAY HOUSTON ALEXANDER KIMBO WILL NOT TAPOUT OR BE TKO OR KO alexander can go marry a hobo
screw that, get ready to say goodnight to Kimbo
