Here’s former MLB MVP Jose Canseco’s mixed martial arts debut:

This gimmick match just reeks of desperation from the fight promotion. Since appearing on the scene as a successor to Pride FC, the group has had weak television ratings, and this was just another step to, “how low can you go?”

Canseco apparently came to the ring with a baseball bat, and his “posse”, which consisted of his girlfriend as the cornerman…and no one else. Yikes. As you can see, Canseco never threatened Choi, and looked more like Carl Lewis than a mixed martial artist, which makes sense, since he isn’t one. Hopefully we never see him compete in MMA again, but you never know, if the fight is a ratings success, and Canseco needs the money…
