Get ready folks. The “Kimbo Show” is making its way to pay-per-view.

A heavyweight matchup between “The Ultimate Fighter 10” cast members
Kevin “Kimbo Slice” Ferguson (4-1 MMA, 1-0 UFC) and Matt Mitrione (1-0
MMA, 1-0 UFC) is currently in the works for the main card of the
as-yet-unannounced UFC 113 event in Montreal.

The matchup was first reported by FiveOuncesOfPain.com, and
MMAjunkie.com has since learned from sources close
to the event that both parties have verbally agreed to the contest,
though bout agreements have yet to be finalized.

If there’s one lesson that Strikeforce middleweight Scott Smith (17-6
MMA, 3-1 SF) has taught the MMA world during his career, it’s to never,
ever count “Hands of Steel” out of a fight.

Smith famously added to his growing legend with a come-from-behind,
knockout win over previously undefeated striker Cung Le in December.

And while Smith doesn’t necessarily have a title fight in his immediate
future, the Californian recently told MMAjunkie.com Radio that he’s OK with that. He doesn’t fight for
belts, anyway.

A note to aspiring professional fighters: There’s one more art necessary to study for your repertoire.

Acting.

While a wrestling background is a worthwhile base, and jiu-jitsu and
Muay Thai are imperative, top WEC contender Urijah Faber has proven
throughout his career that charisma and charm go a long way toward
making you a star. And as “The California Kid” recently told MMAjunkie
Radio, it’s a skill he’s been perfecting since childhood.
