Kimbo joins TUF

Kevin “Kimbo Slice” Ferguson is among the 16 heavyweight fighters to join the 10th season of “The Ultimate Fighter,” which starts shooting this week in Las Vegas.

UFC President Dana White confirmed Kimbo's participation with Yahoo! Sports on Monday.

"He just really wants to fight right now," Slice's manager, Mike Imber, told Sherdog.com.

Slice was released from the now defunct Pro Elite organization on May 13 and passed on a multi-fight deal with Strikeforce, the company that obtained an option to purchase the YouTube phenomenon’s contract.
