Kimbo Slice escapes Choke, Knocks Out Shamrock in First Round at Bellator 138

There was a brief few moments in their much-hyped war where mixed martial arts legend Ken Shamrock thought he had nemesis Kimbo Slice beaten.

After scoring a too-easy single leg takedown, “The World’s Most dangerous Man” quickly moved to back control and locked in a rear-naked choke. It seemed like the end was inevitable.

Kimbo looked like he was going to either go out or tap out, but the submission specialist was unable to seal the deal and Slice eventually escaped the choke. After a wild scramble, the hated rivals stumbled to their feet, both gasping for air.
