That kind of fighting isn't very good, though. Being able to set the pace is one part of being a good fighter, but sitting on top of the opponent without causing damage damage is the mark of an inferior fighter. Kimbo could have sat there for the rest of the round. This is how fighting organizations keep themselves relevant, by letting big names earn (or fail) on their own merit, and that was an amateurish fight all around.
Years back, I used to watch champions hold down their opponent in title fights for five consecutive rounds, their egos would inflate, and eventually a really good fighter shows up and tears them apart. Sean Sherk comes to mind.
