Pois é... depois da sua última humilhante derrota em apenas 15 segundos Kimbo perde os valiosos conselhos e treinos de Bas Rutten.
Ele que foi campeão do heavyweight em 1999 com os numeros 27-4-1 no UFC 20. Contudo teve que se aposentar pois quebrou o joelho e torceu o bíseps no final de sua carrera. Foi daí que ingressou na carrera de treinador e partipou de 9 filmes. O último foi lançadoeste ano dia 16 de Janeiro e se chama Paul Blart: Mall Cop.
Confira sua entrevista (em inglês) abaixo onde ele explica que basicamente o motivo foi a desobediência de Kimbo:
"I stopped training Kimbo. I had him six weeks before the last fight (a loss to Seth Petruzelli on October 4), I talked to him about certain things that I didn’t like, and he promised never to do it again, and then he started doing it again. If people come to me and ask me to train them, I want them to do what I tell them to do, because that’s what they came for. … Once you start doing different things, you’re out. It’s not because he got knocked out. This was already in progress long before the fight."
"I would rather just leave it like this: Let’s say that the Kimbo who came to me at the beginning of training, that wasn’t the Kimbo who was at my gym the last time. Six weeks before his last fight, I told him, I want that Kimbo back. Otherwise, you’re out. And you know, he started doing differently again. Let’s just leave it like that. I don’t want to go into all the details. I wish him nothing but the best. Really, I really do."
