Are you sure is his debut? In boxrec he, I think is him because the fight was in Idaho, had a fight in 2003 which he lost.

FYI, this is a guy who is infamous for KOing an opponent with an illegal soccer kick (while the opponent was on the ground) and then pouncing on him, punching his KO'd body several times while the ref is trying to drag him away.

He also (allegedly) bit an opponent in one of his early UFC fights 12 years ago.

Yeah, Kyle has always had damned good power. Especially with his right hand.
Could certainly make him an immediate contender for a world heavyweight title shot.
;-)
Obviously, I'm joking. But, what he could do is make for some entertaining preliminary bouts against other 4 & 6 round heavies. Hopefully, other walk in bangers like himself.

And yeah, as jujigatame pointed out, Kyle was rather notorious for a couple of years there because of some pretty horrific conduct in the ring/cage.
He clearly had some serious rage issues going on that may have been the result of peds, but he did serve his bans & has conducted himself like a professional for the past several years, so it should no longer be a problem.

Well....it was his pro debut.

Maybe he'll take on the likes of Haye or Chisora next time out. :neutral:
