Tim Kennedy beat Robbie Lawler by unanimous decision at Strikeforce: Fedor vs. Henderson in Illinois Saturday night. It was just the fourth time in Kennedy’s 17-fight career he went to a decision, and the second time he came out victorious on the judges’ cards. He thinks the judges don’t give him favorable decisions because he bleeds easily. He joked about it after the fight, and let me tell you, this guy has a great personality. Check out the video of Tim Kennedy after the fight:
That was a toned-down version of Kennedy who was even more colorful immediately after his fight. In his interview in the octagon, he reiterated that he bleeds easily. He also joked about his dislike of the judges.
“I’m going to come in here, I’m going to fight every time. This is me!” Kennedy hailed to the delight of his fans. “This is how I roll! I come in here, I’m going to go until the judges say ‘God, get that bloody guy out of the cage.’
“Give me Jacare [Souza], I want the title. I wanted it last time [but the] judges didn’t give it to me. I just won’t go to the judges. This is the first time I’ve actually got a decision I think. I don’t like [the judges]. I’m going to try to win every fight by knockout or submission because that’s how I fight!”
Kennedy was fighting for the Wounded Warriors charity since he is a Green Beret in the Army Special Forces. With his personality and exciting style, I think I’ve just found a new favorite fighter. That guy is awesome.
