Kimbo v. Sean 'the Cannon' Gannon

In September 2003 Kimbo was challenged to a fight by Sean Gannon, a Boston police officer who trains in MMA. The fight was held in an enclosed padded room, and both fighters had a full entourage in attendance. The rules agreed upon by both fighters are somewhat controversial. The exact rules are unknown, but it appears that kicking was not allowed, and neither were ground submissions. Gannon's supporters allege that since the rules stated "no strikes with the foot or shin, and no ground submissions", it was within the rules for Gannon to use his knees against Kimbo and to attempt standing submissions.

Kimbo and Gannon exchanged punches for a while, then after sustaining a punch combination, Kimbo grabbed Gannon's midsection, at which point Gannon caught Kimbo in a guillotine choke. Kimbo's entourage began to protest loudly that Gannon was violating the rules of the fight. They then attempted to release Kimbo from Gannon's choke. Gannon's entourage then began to protest the interference, and blocked the camera. Fans of Gannon allege that had Kimbo's supporters not interfered, the fight could have ended at this point with Kimbo being choked out. As a result of the interference, Gannon eventually released Kimbo and Kimbo threw Gannon to the ground and began to pummel him (See 'Ground and Pound' MMA technique). Gannon escaped, and was able to stand back up. Soon after, Gannon caught Kimbo in another choke, and Kimbo's entourage protested again. Later, after more stand-up fighting, Gannon held Kimbo's head down and delivered a few knees to Kimbo's face. This resulted in more protesting by Kimbo's supporters. Both fighters appear exhausted by this point, and Gannon managed to knock Kimbo down three times, each time with a barrage of punches. Gannon's supporters counted off the number of seconds that Kimbo stayed on the ground each time. The fight was to end on a 30 count. In any case, Kimbo was eventually unable to continue, and Gannon was declared the winner. Still, some in Kimbo's camp feel the victory was won under dubious circumstances while most MMA fans feel Kimbo introduced the initial grappling and his entourage stopped multiple stoppages in Gannon's favor.

A video of the fight was made available on the Internet. Due to the popularity of the video, the UFC signed Gannon. He made his debut at UFC 55 on October 7, 2005, where Branden Lee Hinkle defeated him by technical knockout due to strikes. Despite rumors, participating in the underground fight with Kimbo did not cost Gannon his job at the Boston police department, where he continues to work full-time
