According to the commentators Vanilla Ice only trained one day for the fight.

I think Tank is in with that on the borders Hollywood crowd, I mean what is up with that connection, I wish-oh I wish that Ice came out to fight with that old haircutt.

Ice-Ice baby.

Everyone is so unskilled and awkward. This is painful to watch.

I wonder if Tank trained him, too? That would be funny. I imagine Tanks' training would involve ice slamming shots in intense 3 minute intervals.

It was hilarious. Stern interviewed danny and todd on his show this morning, so I already knew who was gonna win, but it was still a trip to watch. Bonnaducci has actually trained before - he has a black belt - you couldn't tell by watching him though. You could tell he'd been working out, but couldn't tell he had any skill.

This was the best one hour I've seen on television in ages. I'm still weeping with gratefulness that television is able to sink below the lowest common denominator and bring us voyeuristic pap like this.

The first bout between Danny Bonaduce and that guy who played "Greg" on the Brady Bunch was classic. Danny beat that goon into the canvas. It was cool. I want to be like Danny Bonaduce when I grow up then I can have a television career and once I've sunk to the lowest low I can be I'll become so desperate I'll sign my name to an enterprise like this one. If I can really work at it I'll not only shame myself but even my dead grandparents. That would really be something to shoot for.

I missed the second bout between Vanilla Ice and Todd Bridges because I had to go take a dump.

But I made it back for the Tonya "Crack Her Knees with a Bat" Harding vs. Paula "I'm a dupe for the GOP" Jones bout. This was poetry in motion. Tonya beat that weasel-eating sl*t d'boxcar into pulp. My money had always been on Tonya. Any chick who'd smash a hubcap into her boyfriends face has really got something going for her. I think I'll divorce my wife and stalk Tonya now....

And I loved the crowd. I bet there wasn't one full set of teeth amongst them all. Did you catch the sign held up by the twenty-year old guy still living with his mother and working on a boiler that read: "I luve you Tayna". [Budokan wipes a tear from his eye] I'm always touched whenever I see an expression of true love.

Tonya had nice juggs, too, but that's not the only reason I watched.

I don't know why Vanilla Ice agreed to fight Todd Bridges. He humiliated himself. Vanilla Ice is a total wimp. I've never seen such a girly man in my whole life. I guess Bonaduce did the best. They should have had him fight todd bridges. I bet Greg Brady would have kicked Vanilla Ice's ass. I've probably expended more thought on this than anyone involved with the show. the whole event was like something out of a science fiction book.

Bodokan- I saw that sign too. I don't know if it was a joke or what, either way it's total genius.


It's weird when Barry Williams talks because it's like "Who is that?...Greg Brady!!" he still sounds just like him

Hey, I'm a professional writer who actually writes science fiction. Even I can't come up with something this good!:D

You know that feeling you get when you simultaneously want to weep for human civilization because something like this has happened, and are furious that you missed it?

Well, neither did I until just now.

I hope it's rerun sometime.

Then there're the questions that has gone unasked until now.

Why Tank Abbott? Why not a boxing coach?
Serpent

Answer my question, d@mmit! Are these people really boxing each other? Full contact? Fu(king WHY!?

And where can I catch a rerun?

It's on Fox. The west coast is going to be "treated" to it in 15 minutes.

I thought I was the only one that noticed tanya's juggs.

Todd was more aggressive than I thought he'd be, as was Tanya

Tanya had a little porno stint. Just a tip sevenstar.


I thought it was actually pretty cool. Thats more like what "streetfighting" is. Flailing, strait on hits, one of which will take the other one out because he doesn't know how to take a hit.

I loved Vanilla's wheeling forward with his feet a yard behind him. That happens with the adrenaline.

It was fun to watch. I want to see Gary Coleman vs. Webster.

I can't believe there are so many people talking about this. Vanilla Ice is a loser, and if he's still alive, the person he was fighting didn't get paid enough!!

Tanya did not have a "porno stint". Having a tape of your honeymoon sold by your "ex" is hardly a "porno stint".
You act like she had a contract and made porn flicks for a living.


Tanya's breasts are fake. They were nowhere to be found in the home movie.

Darn I missed it, that'll teach me to spend my time training. :(

At least I got to see Combat Missions.

BTW Serpent,
If no one answered your question yet:

Shameless trailer trash show information (http://www.fox.com/boxing/)

My first thought when I saw Tank was, "What's he gonna teach Vanilla about boxing?" :confused:

Vanilla must have heard Tank was a "tough guy" (snicker) and decided to look him up. Unfortunately, none of Vanilla's friends were smart enough to tell him that the "lay-on-you-and-pound" only works in the UFC and usually only when you weigh 360 pounds.

And I thought I was hallucinating when I saw the "Tayna" sign. Thanks for letting me know I wasn't!

And I loved the crowd. I bet there wasn't one full set of teeth amongst them all.
