AOL sports’ MLB Fanhouse details Saturday night’s boxing action at Bernie Robbins Stadium:
Vai Sikahema didn’t save the world on Saturday night, but he got the ball rolling, and that’s pretty good for an average guy. And he did so by quickly destroying Jose Canseco in a “celebrity” boxing “match” that didn’t last too particularly long and ended the same way it started, according to the New York Daily News: with a crowd of roughly 1,300 people booing, cursing and mocking the former baseball player for his steroid use.
Will Brinson continues:
Usually I think happy endings are relatively sappy. But in this case, I’m willing to make an exception. Despite playing a role in the unveiling of MLB’s steroid culture, over the past few months, Canseco has been nothing short of a promiscuous media figure and a scourge for every decent minded C-list celebrity trying to keep up a respectful image.
