Kimbo Slice's Next Fight

Kimbo Resting During TrainingEverybody's wondering who will Kimbo Slice fight next. It's unknown at this point whether Kimbo will fight again on a regular broadcast (non finale) of The Ultimate Fighter, but nearly every episode shown since his loss to Roy Nelson has been very suggestive of Kimbo getting a second shot on TUF.

As for Kimbo's next scheduled fight outside of the TUF regular broadcasts, we know he's in training at the American Top Team gym in Coconut Creek Florida for a fight in December. The December fight could be one of two things, fighting at The Ultimate Fighter finale broadcast on December 5th, or a rumored fight at UFC 107 on December 12th vs. Houston Alexander. If the Kimb vs. Alexander fight materializes look forward to a stand up brawl, as neither fighter is particularly comfortable on the ground.
