Did Kimbo Slice Know Seth Petruzelli Was Bribed to Stand?

With good reason, the hottest story in MMA this year has been the scandal involving EliteXC's payment to Seth Petruzelli to keep his fight with Kimbo Slice on the feet. But I have another question that nobody is asking:

Did Kimbo Slice know that Petruzelli was paid to keep the fight standing?

Kimbo rushed right in at Petruzelli at the start of the fight - as if he had no fear of being taken down Does that strike anyone else as pretty damn odd?

In any case, we should all expect CBS to sever ties with EliteXC in the near future because this debacle is hugely embarrassing from every standpoint. And again, let's hope that EliteXC's fighters find good homes in other organizations.
