I’m gonna ‘shock the world’ - Podcast intern set to fight Jose Canseco in amateur boxing bout

You can take combat sports out of the carnival, but you can’t take the carnival out of combat sports.

No word as to whether funnel cake will be on offer, but this Friday night in West Virginia one of the combat sports world’s most unusual contestants will return. No, I’m not talking about Danny Bonaduce and his claim to fame as the toughest kid to come out of 70s family TV. And I don’t think we’ll see Vanilla Ice back in the ring anytime soon. But former Oakland Athletics legend and home run king Jose Canseco is stepping back into the boxing ring for his latest challenge.
