Remember Jose Canseco's "fighting career?"
Edited on Tue May-26-09 08:43 PM by flvegan
He boxed to a draw with Danny Bonaduci if that triggers your memory.

Yeah, he tried his hand at some MMA (sort of) against Hong Man Choi, a 7+ foot tall 300 and something lb kickboxer.

For him it went...well, rather poorly.

3. I hate MMA, UFC type stuff
But I watched this twice. I think the big guy went a bit easy on him too.

2. Dude made millions playing ball, and needs to whore himself out because he's broke.
Sucks for him.

6. At least one.
It is a shame. But on my "to feel sorry for list", he's way down.

8. Yeah his accumulated $50 million in baseball salary earnings
puts me in the "not much pity" camp.

9. If you posted that as an OP in the Sports Forum
it may well end the world.
