Canseco admits needing money
Jose Canseco used his muscles to take pitchers deep and trade blows with Danny Bonaduce.
Now the former MVP will step onto the mat and try MMA.
In his latest attempt to cash in on his flagging post-baseball career, Canseco is set to make his mixed martial arts debut on May 26 in Japan. The former Oakland A's slugger and tell-all author is fighting South Korean Hong Man Choi on the Dream 9 card in Yokohama Arena.
Choi is a 7-foot-2, 330-pound super heavyweight and has a 1-2 record in MMA.
"I have no idea if I can do it," Canseco said Thursday night. "It's a tough sport."
Canseco has written two books, starred in a pair of reality shows, and had two celebrity boxing bouts since his 17-year baseball career ended. He boxed Bonaduce, a former "Partridge Family" child star, to a majority draw in a match in January. Canseco was listed at 6-4 and 260 pounds for that exhibition bout that featured only three, 1-minute rounds.
Canseco, who named names of alleged steroid abusers like himself in his two books, lost to former Philadelphia Eagle Vai Sikahema in his first foray into celebrity boxing.
Canseco's girlfriend, Heidi Northcott, said the MMA deal was presented to Canseco about two weeks ago. The 1988 AL MVP is part of a card that includes an eight-man open-weight tournament and is being called the Super Hulk Tournament.
By his acknowledgment, the baseball outcast needs the money. It's one reason why Canseco has accepted a wide variety of offbeat jobs to make ends meet.

what does one have to do in order to have that much money from playing a freakin child's game and then lose it all. I don't feel sorry for him. He should get a real job like the rest of us.

Chasing his wife through the streets of Vegas reportedly over 100 MPH and rear ending her probably implies a wreckless lifestyle.

Reminds me of Mr. T. I'll give you $5 if you say, "I pity the fool!"an eight-man open-weight tournament and is being called the Super Hulk Tournament.
Another story of someone in sports who had enough money to never worry again, and end up broke.By his acknowledgment, the baseball outcast needs the money. It's one reason why Canseco has accepted a wide variety of offbeat jobs to make ends meet.
I now Canseco foreclosed on 2 or $3 milliong dollar home in Encino this year.
He's definitely broke if he's doing stuff like this. Boxing Danny Partridge.

You didn't list a source.
Jose Canseco is a snitch. What's worse is he's guilty of doing the same thing as the others but he thinks that being a tattle tail somehow puts him on a moral highground. This guy is milking his stardom for all it's worth. Steroids are prevalent in every sport. UFC, Football, baseball, basketball, wrestling, etc. It's all across the board. It doesn't matter how much they test them; athletes will always find new compounds and different ways to get around it.
How did Canseco get so broke? Does he have a gambling problem?Last edited by flashinglights; 05-09-2009 at 11:27 PM.

Id pay to see him get beat up. I wish he was fighting someone better than Choi, but he's a big dude that can drop some hammers so we will see.
