ESPN's LZ Granderson Has Some Harsh Words For Kimbo Slice
Posted by Dustin James on 05.04.2008
Why must everybody pick on poor Kimbo?
ESPN's Page 2 columnist LZ Granderson recently wrote an article on Kimbo Slice and in the article he has some pretty harsh words for Kimbo:
I don't know if he's necessarily stupid, because I've never met the man, but he certainly seems to be misguided. Why else would Slice disregard all sense of honor, PRIDE and history to project an image that can best be described as a cross between Lil' Wayne and Kunta Kinte -- a runaway slave with a mouth full of gold teeth playing up every single stereotype of an African-American male in exchange for short-lived adoration from a soulless media with ADD. ... I find what Slice is consciously doing downright disgusting.
Wonder if Kimbo will issue a challenge to this cunt, like he did with Chuck.

Granderson might have a point, but in pointing it out, he's doing just want Slice is good at, which is getting people talking about him.

There's far worse African Americans that hurt Black America than a guy like Kimbo Slice, who most people don't know about.

This is a pretty ignorant comment. I can’t say that I think Kimbo is a perfect role model for kids, but to make harsh comments like this is pretty uncalled for. Like the author stated, he’s never even sat down and talked to Kimbo. Never judge a person until you walk a mile in their shoes.

Well, if you actually click the link you will see the author is black himself, so I think he has a right to call out Kimbo about the negative sterotypes. Thank god it wasnt a white man doing it, otherwise there would be an uproar.
