White described Kimbo’s raw power and intimidating presence but likened his fighting style to streetball compared to the “professional ball” of trained martial artists. White emphasized that despite Kimbo receiving coaching from legendary fighter Bas Rutten, Kimbo's lack of refined striking and defensive techniques—such as blocking punches and reading attacks—left him vulnerable in higher-level competition. White recalled how his own precise, practiced strikes would break through defenses even when opponents knew it was coming. Ultimately, White underscored the difference between street fighting and the tactical, disciplined approach needed to succeed against elite fighters like himself, Jon Jones, or Israel Adesanya—highlighting why Kimbo’s skills weren’t enough to face him in a real fight.
