Kane vs Sylvia, I would pay to see this one

Update on the bottom- This has to be one of the funniest rumors I have ever heard that is probably a “Donnie/Troll post”, but I could not help myself and had to report it because I laughed my ass off reading it. Allegedly Tim Sylvia got his ass kicked in a Detroit, Michicgan Bar.

The rumors looks like it started on the Ninjashoes.net  then Bloody Elbow  MMA Linker and FightLinker.com all ran with it too, so I am too. It has to be true, right?

“Former UFC Heavyweight Champion, Tim Sylvia was involved in a fight at a bar in downtown Detroit Michigan with 7 foot, 320 pound WWE Superstar, Glen ‘Kane’ Jacobs.

No details are currently being released on how the fight started. A witness says the two were arguing and Tim Sylvia instigated the fight. Jacobs quickly took Sylvia to the ground and repeatedly punched him in the face. The bartender along with a bystander helped pull Jacobs off Sylvia. Sylvia was said to have suffered a broken nose and a black eye.

The police were notified but since the fight was not prolonged and neither men wanted to press any charges, no arrests were made. Sylvia was driven by a friend who was with him to the hospital to treat the broken nose. Glen Jacobs left the scene with his wife shortly after.”

I would rather pay $100 to see this rather then see Tim Sylvia fight that fossil Boxer Ray Mercer he is supposed to fight at Adrenaline 3. If this is true, this easily gets a nominee for “Teh Fail of the Week”.

What do you think? True or false?

Update- Too funny to be true

It appears that this rumor was started on a message board as we suspected, The Sun caught up to Glen Jacobs also known as Kane who cleared up the rumor.

“I was sitting at home at the time and someone told me – that was the first I’d heard about it.

“I hear I handled it pretty well though. I’m happy with myself!

“I’m pretty sure Tim won’t hold a grudge.”

Wondering what would happen if an MMA and WWE fighter did meet under UFC rules, the former world champion added: “Look at what Brock Lesnar’s doing.

“Undertaker trained MMA style and I have to some extent too. I actually got my start as a shoot fighter in Japan.

“Wrestlers are a little tougher than we’re generally given credit for and I think we’d represent ourselves well.”

This one had “Troll” post written all over it from the jump, but was just way too funny to ignore.

Props go out to URDirt.com reader Chiggs on the update.
