Shamrock was checked by doctors and was not cleared to fight Kimbo. so a replacement had to be found. Seth Petruzelli was the one that replaced Kimbo. originally, petruzelli was scheduled to fight on the undercard, but because of shamrocks injury, petruzelli got the call for the main event.
fake? lol that fight was far from fake. there is no way in hell elite xc would set up their golden boy kimbo to get beat. He's their moneymaker and brings up the ratings. without kimbo, elite xc doesn't have much else to work with. if anything, fights have been set up in kimbo's favor. he's been matched up against nobodys, softees, or old washed up past their prime fighters.
too bad this time it came back to bite them in the a$$.
petruzelli has a good bit of experience under him. he competed in the heavyweight season of The Ultimate Fighter and has had a couple fights in the UFC. while he was in the UFC, he didn't do to hot, actually got beat both of the times he fought. but, im glad he beat kimbo. alot of people have been waiting for kimbo to be exposed.
