Wouldn’t it be great if blogging could get me into a celebrity boxing match? I would love to go to blows with a guy like Jose Canseco.

Actually… He still takes steroids right? Nevermind.

Even though I didn’t get to knock him out, it’s still pretty cool to see him getting knocked out by Vai Sikahema at their celebrity boxing match. That made my day.

Canseco’s size advantage — he is 6-foot-4, 245 pounds to Sikahema’s 5-9, 205 — was not a factor in the bout, which was over in the first round.

“When you step inside the square circle,” Sikahema said, according to the Press of Atlantic City, “don’t ever think that your size is going to matter because in Philadelphia, we will chop you down.”
