Comments about ‘BYU Football: Ex-Cougar Sikahema throttles Canseco in celebrity boxing event’

Tongan Terror indeed.

And a wonderful person.

Good work, Sikahema. I hope you washed very thoroughly after touching Jose. He is pathetic.

All Cougars do the "haka"! Way to go Vai!

I love that the Haka peeves the Utes - keep doing it

after a performance like that one would believe that Jose is a u of u grad...

Why would Sikahema earn only $25,000 while Canseco got $35,000? And I'm talking before the donation by Sikahema.

Why did Canseco get $35,000 when Vai got $25,000 for mopping the floor with that guy?

Canseco got more money cuz they knew he was going to need it for his hospital bills right after the fight.

Way to go Vai!!

By the way, what did Vai mean when he said "When you step inside the square circle"? Can a circle be square? Maybe circles now look kind of square to Jose. Vai would probably also be a great footabll coach and could say things like "All right men, pair up in groups of 3. Then go line up in a circle!"

"By the way, what did Vai mean when he said "When you step inside the square circle"?"

I believe it's called a boxing "RING," so "square circle" would be an apt description.

He's just neat.

Vai keep your opinions to yourself. Your lashing out at Jose Conseco and calling him a pathetic human being, makes you no better. Jose exposed baseball for what it was in the 80's and 90's. Sure he implicated himself in the process but he did sports a service by "telling all".

How would you feel Vai if he called your NFL and college days pathetic? Again he would be just telling the truth.

Vai you were always better with your mouth than your play.

As for celeb. boxing...talk about pathetic.

You've been in Philly too long...You're starting to act like all Philly sports fans, thinking you know it all while knowing very little. In the words of the late Chris Farley " I just wish you {all} would just shut your big yappers".

Don't go away mad Vai...just..you know!

Hey whatyamean, if his college days were pathetic why did he play in the NFL.

Go back to looking at your Conseco poster on your ceiling.

"Ranked first among the NFL's all-time career leaders in number of punt returns and second in punt return yardage, Sikahema is also a two-time All-Pro."

Vai is the real deal and is simply being truthful about what he thinks of Conseco. Conseco IS a phoney and pathetic human being (see youtube videos of the fight to see that other sportscasters feel the same way about Jose).

And whatyamean is clueless about both.

Hillarious

RE: whatdayamean:

Have you ever heard of "hype?" It's what sells tickets and gets fans in the seats for boxing events. Any REAL boxing fan knows that! You've got to hype it up and get people interested by saying some outlandish things about your opponent. Why do you think that Tyson was so good at this later in his career? It's because his skills as a fighter had eroded to the point where he was useless physically but wanted fans to think otherwise so that he could get paid!

Vai said what he said about Canseco to HYPE THE FIGHT! It doesn't mean that he necessarily believes it! Plus, his winnings went to a good cause so leave Vai alone.

You sound like some bitter yewt/RSL fan who has nothing better than to bash on Cougs past, present, and future. Way to go, Vai! Let's keep this celebrity boxing thing going!!

RE: Alex Trebek

What does RSL have to do with anything? I wouldn't expect a Canadian to appreciate a sport like soccer anyway (too many players and the hockey puck's round), good luck qualifying for the World Cup. Long live the queen.

haka does not bother anybody...i personally think its funny seeing little white boys trying to do it

I may not agreed with Canseco's reputation but to call him a "pathetic figure" is not very gentlemen sportsman like. Sikahema, you know better than that. Why not just say that it was all in good fun for charity and leave it at that?

I'm proud of Vai for winning against a much bigger athlete, but I agree that his criticism of Canseco was not very Christian. Jose should be praised for helping to solve the drug problem in professional sports. One of the pros I know got huge when he went to the NFL, which did almost nothing to prevent steroid use in those days. It wouldn't surprise me to open the newspaper one day to read that he had contracted liver cancer.

$5000 out of $25000 donated to a fallen officer's widow? How about giving the WHOLE $25K next time, Vai? You don't need the money.

And it is true that you did not show class in your calling Canseco pathetic or your arrogant statement about being surprised the bout lasted as long as it did. Show some class. Think Rocky in Rocky 3 after he beat Hulk Hogan (Thunderlips) in the charity bout between a boxer and a wrestler. Yes, the story is fiction, but Rocky's comments to and about his opponent were everything yours were not, Vai. Dignity, humility, love for all, even your enemies. I think you are supposed to live by these, even in Philly.
