Kimbo Slice

He made his name on the street, and now he's Elite!

Join me cageside this Saturday, live on CBS at 9pm ET for the debut of EliteXC "Saturday Night Fights." Kimbo slice, Robbie Lawler and Gina Carano will introduce the mainstream to the non-stop action that is MMA.

This will be a momentus night not only for the fighters on the card, but for the sport of MMA itself. For the first time, the cage will be center stage on prime-time network television. And it's gonna be fantastic!

I've spent the last couple of days with the fighters and they are absolutely psyched to show the world why MMA is a sport that deserves to be embraced by the masses.
