Comments about ‘Former BYU Cougar Sikahema is no stranger to the ring’

Way to go, Vai -- class act all the way!

anyone who has ever really fought in the ring, or wrestled on the mat knows if your not trained for it, size really doesn't matter.

I'd like to see Vai and Brad Rock in the ring.

Wonder who would have won if it went to the ground? Does Vai know any jiu jisto. That Conseco looks like he could really bite like an alligator. He's had lots of practice with his mouth.

I've boxed, done martial arts, and MMA, and boxing is certaily the weakest of the arts. Not only that, its a good way to have head injuries. Two guys that I trained died. One from a bar fight where he was taken to the ground and choked out for good and the other got repeated head injuries and later died.

A good wrestler would take both of these guys to the ground and gound and pound them out. You have one punch to take them out or its over. Or, you must beat them on the ground.

My 2 cents.

What'sup man? This is an article about a celebrity boxing match?

Why not ask..."Duhhhh, what would happen if a boxer went up against an AK-47?"

Cause...man...I been in da Army man. I was a Marine. I was also a Navy man. Duhhhh....and what I'm say'n is no boxer can outpunch a bullet flyin thu da air. An by da way...da Marines is da strongest of da military arts maaaannn.

How is this story getting this much love? I shouldnt ask who cares. I know tons of you find this interesting which is more frightening yet.

Lame comment - infantry guys are usually pretty dumb - yo zeke proves that.

I bet you've never been in the ring before....okay, maybe to walk the little signs around, you know the ones that tell everyone what round it is.

Ground and Pound takes no skill...a fighter goes in knowing they can use almost anything to win. It's rush in, wrestle your opponent down then hoping you get a good grip and try to knock them out, lots of options....boxing on the other hand has only two options, your left and your right fist.

As far as your buddies that died....sound like idiots to me.

Stupidity meets idiocy head-on.

I'm sure not a boxing fan, but I think this was a class act on Vai's part. To donate his winnings as he did is just great. Why are all of you so negative? What have you done lately to help someone else?
We can all use our very different talents to bless those in need and Vai did. Good for him. Makes a nice change from the general run of self-centered, self-promoting athletes.

Yo Zeke 10:00, Your lame comment regarding "infantry guys are usually pretty dumb" makes me sick to my stomach. It also makes me believe the draft should return. Maybe if all of you spoiled brats had to face up for your freedom you would have more respect.

the guys you trained died? I been training my boys for years and their still alive and that's no jive ...you never been near the ring for sure....and if you get hit by either of my son's well it's just like vai said goodbye to CAN-sicko

Dude really took this to heart. I wonder what Zeke read in this article that the rest of us didn't get? HILARIOUS! You da man Zeke ...

I think Vai could take that big slow lummox Canseco on the ground, as well.

Vai is the man. He just did what every B-ball player wishes they could have done when Jose started shooting his mouth off.

I love it with the little man takes down the Giant!

Gotta love Philly!

When is the moving coming out? You don't become a true Philly sports star until your movie comes out.

You do, you read the article. Would you advocate censoring articles so that we can just read whatever you find significant. Vai is a good person and a celebrity who took down a low life. It's better than reading about athletes with DUI or assault charges.

Hooray Vai. The orange and blue are smiling proudly tonight

talk about a lot of ego and self-promotion. Vai drops you in 10 seconds.

I don't care where it's held, what style is fought, whatever. Look at the picture of this "old" man. That is a dude who chews nails and spits razor blades. And he's a gold glover. Give him three months to learn ground and pound, and he'll go through the MMA crowd too. Bad is bad is bad, and crazy is crazy is crazy, and an NFL All pro has to be both. Comments to the contrary reek of jealousy. SCOREBOARD!!!!!

Celebrity boxing champ? Thats like being the best snowboarder in Saudi Arabia. Thank goodness that it was for Charity...(sort of) or Vai, you would be a joke too.
