If I was at the Tyson-Etienne fight in Nashville today... I would've been pretty mad. 1st round... 49 seconds. And it's over. Well, not quite.
Half of the people at the fight probably wanted to see Tyson fight again. The other half probably wanted to see Tonya Harding's pro-boxing debut. Being in Japan, after church, I turned to trusty ol' ESPN.com to check both the main event and the undercard... which is which, I'm not quite sure.
So here's the column on the Tonya Harding fight. I don't care too much for the article. But BAM! Right there, when you open the page, there's the picture of Tonya Harding during the fight. This was a major "Wha-the-hao" moment. The picture is worthy of a double bam... BAM BAM. I didn't recognize her at all in the picture. I had to read the caption to make sure it was her. I don't exactly remember what she looked like when she was skating but I KNOW FOR SURE that she didn't look like that. Granted, it's probably not her best photo-op.
"At 32, Harding hardly is a petite athlete anymore. She has bulked up to 123 pounds, much of it in her arms, shoulders and upper body." No kiddin'.
