Someday he'll get to a level where he's celebrated for his own accomplishments. He's definitely training with the right guys.

No, it would take credibility away.
the bigger Bellator gets the bigger the sport gets.
It isn't UFC vs Bellator. Anybody thinking that is insane.

He's proud of it, I'm sure. I just mean that for now, he's known as 'Kimbo's son' before anything else. But he is very skilled, and getting better every day.
