any news on canseco/sikahema?....lol

[gardenweasel]

it would be nice to finish this crazy weekend off with a sikahema beatdown on canseco....

 

[gardenweasel]

6:30 post time.....

i wouldn`t have a clue where to look for a result on this debacle...

 

[nj]

earlier today at nbc10.com there was a banner saying tonight 9pm theyd broadcast the fight live

http://www.nbc10.com/sports/16851191/detail.html

now it just says post-fight details and videos :shrug:

i dont think its happened, if you google it there are no results. strange. at 9pm check nbc10, maybe it coems back up.

 

[gardenweasel]

thanks,n.j....


is there some kind of undercard for this drech?...

maybe that "ghost of ken caminiti" snark wasn`t all that far afield...

BRING THE PAIN,OH POLYNESIAN ASSASSIN!...

 

[gardenweasel]

i have a funny feeling this never happened...

 

[HurricaneEddy]

You too?

I have a feeling Jose never bothered to show up. I hope I'm wrong but my gut says he realized he may have been in over his head and wanted to back out rather than get beat up

 

[nj]

since 9pm ive been floating around sites and trying to find feeds or results, the promoters were disappointed int icket sales and pulled the plug on the feed at the last minute. i found that out after 1.5 hours of waiting.

since then i've been scouring like a hungry dog, considering i put way too much cash on a 45-year-old football player, $300 when a typical bet for me is $30-60 :scared ...


.....

.... so, with extreme caution, Im calling Sikahema the winner

the few comments on this fight have all been the same: vai whooped his ass, 1st round KO. all in the past hour, on yahoo talk or youtube comments

here is a youtube video that looks promising, but still, dont count your cash yet!

this is a hardly a well sanctioned and organized bout, be cautious. im still waiting on a full report and offocial result. 5dimes hasnt graded mine yet.


.... im tempting to say congrats gw, but no jinxing allowed!

 

[nj]

btw can someone post when 5dimes grades their bet? so we dont all have to check.

 

[HurricaneEddy]

That video looks very legit bro- I appreciate you posting that.


Looks like we did pick the right guy. Congrats to all who jumped in on this

Jose Canseco gets bashed in attempt to make splash in ring
By MICHAEL O'KEEFFE and CHRISTIAN RED

(Page 1 of 3)

ATLANTIC CITY - The former Bash Brother got his head bashed in Saturday night.

In nearly less time than it takes to round the bases after one of his moon-shot homers, Jose Canseco was knocked out by former NFL return man Vai Sikahema in their celebrity boxing match that was equal parts "Saturday Night Fever" meets "Road House." How's this for star power - 1993 Phillies World Series goat Mitch Williams was ringside for the main event.

Asked after the fight if there were any surprises, Sikahema said, "That it didn't finish in the first 30 seconds."

The partisan Sikahema crowd - he ended his NFL career with the Eagles - of 1,300 who filed into Bernie Robbins minor-league baseball stadium saw Canseco walk in from right field with a tiny entourage including his visibly nervous girlfriend Heidi Northcutt. Canseco, dressed in a black tank top, black shorts and red head gear then sat beneath the ring and watched as Sikahema's 15 family members and friends performed a haka - or Polynesian war dance. With painted faces, and native Tongan dress, they hissed at Canseco, pounded their chests and screamed. Northcutt rubbed Canseco's shoulders.

[nj]

big props to you eddy and gardenweasel!


i first looked at this fight like a freak-show and put 10$ on it, as you guys provided more insight and links, it piqued my curiousty, and i did more research on my own.


seriously, you guys uncovered a gem!


i put 50$ on thompson to win 300, after he lost and i lost yesterday i foolishly dumped 300 on vai for about 350 out of frustration. what a break!

congrats guys!

wow its nice to be "famed". i mean, this is what i wanted all my life, but now im not so sure you know? id liek to walk down the street privately, rather than people constantly telling me how smart i am and hot women wanting to have my babies.

i dont know if i can handle life in the spotlight, even though im now officially elite, i still associate with slack-jawed yolkels like you guys.

tonight the legend of "night janitor" grows, though noone is certain why he chose such a stupid name.

:mj07:

funniest shit ive heard all day. you must be sphincter, i see the trademarked "..." style comments


thanks for the laugh g-dub


edit - been a crazy day im burnt out, congrats again to all vai backers and thanks for your insights into this bout, it definitely turned out to be worthwhile.
