General: Sterno's Talkin' Smack -- Episode #4
Talkin' more smack: Episode #4 -- Topics include Lennox Lewis, Jose Canseco, Mike Tyson and the weather!
Sterno's talkin' smack. No holding back here. It's simply all trash, all the time. Happy Monday everybody! Let's get started...
Smack This: Lennox Lewis -- Lennox, Lennox, Lennox. We told you to stay away from those donuts, now didn't we? In Saturday's fight against Vitaly Klitschko you looked so round some viewers might have mistaken you for an overweight promoter as opposed to the Heavyweight Champion of the world!
Lewis vs. Klitschko turned out to be worth everyone's money, yet this time it was free. How ironic eh? After six rounds, Klitschko 32-2 (31KO) had the blood, the cut and the look of a one eyed pirate. Nevertheless, Lewis had the fear as well as the Staples center crowd against him. An out of shape Lewis 41-2-1 (32KO), managed to hit Vitaly with a shot that cut him in the second round, and lucky for him because that was his only hope in the fight. The mostly unknown Ukranian fighter who's brother was supposedly better than him, took it to Lewis early and often with a stiff jab and crosses from both sides.
When the fight was called, Klitschko was ahead on all three cards (58-56), yet it was Lewis who was brash afterwards saying... "Look at his face." He was "deteriorating." (Did anyone hear Lewis try and pronounce that word three times and still not get it right!?!) I'm sure that they will fight again sometime down the road. Lewis will probably go to the gym this time around instead of Dunkin Donuts, and probably prevail. You have to wonder though, if he will ever be able to pronounce the word deteriorate?
Lewis -- Smacked!
Smack This: Criminal Double-dip! This is a grand ol' smack and it goes behind bars to reach Mike Tyson and Jose Canseco. Wow, what a weekend for these two. Let's start with "Iron" Mike.
Tyson was charged with a misdemeanor for like the millionth time this past weekend after assaulting two men outside a hotel in Brooklyn, New York. I had thought that after last month saying he wished he had raped his 1992 accuser, that promoter and Jiminy Cricket, Shelley Finkle would have moved Mike somewhere of the coast of South America in order to keep him under raps. No such luck! Now, with no career, no life and part of Evander Holyfield's ear still stuck somewhere in his throat, Tyson takes off once again into the sunset. (aka, walks out of jail with his head down) I really wish they could keep a camera in this guy's house twenty four hours a day because THAT would be some serious reality television!
Tyson -- Smacked!
Jose Canseco, once a bash brother, once a future Hall of Famer. Now? The biggest joke on planet steroid! Jose was in the news once again this past weekend and no, it was not because he was signed by a Major League team.
No, folks, Jose is back in jail after testing positive for steroids yet again. Ya know, there are kids half this guy's age with half this guy's connections passing drug tests all over the country with all kinds of different pills and liquids, and such. Somehow, Jose, knowing he would be tested sooner or later as part of his probation stemming from a nightclub brawl back in 2001, still managed to fail.
Seriously, what does this guy do... inject a pint of this junk in his thigh every morning. He looks like a brick wall, has women everywhere who still think he's some kind of stud, and better yet he could probably be playing if he wasn't such a loser off the field. (aka, a saying publicly that guys all over the map are using steroids, and that he'd be Barry Bonds if he wasn't Hispanic) Hmmm. Okay Jose. So, what about the ten plus Hispanic All-Stars that will take the field when the leagues meet in July? Are they NOT really Hispanic?
Jose Canseco -- Smacked!
One for the road: Does anyone know if the sun plans on returning to the Northeast anytime this summer? Between delays, rain outs and the inability to go outside of the house, an entire area of this country has been forced to follow the ongoing saga of Martha Stewart!
