Hulk Hogan wants Roy Jones Jr to stop cockfighting

From the NY POST:

 

April 7, 2005 --  HULK Hogan is demanding that boxer Roy Jones Jr. "lay off defenseless animals" and give up cockfighting. The pro wrestling icon, who lives with a rooster named Lily, was enlisted by the Humane Society to send Jones a letter chiding him for buying a cockfighting pit near Franklinton, La. Jones, who modeled his masterful boxing style after fighting cocks, has raised roosters on his Pensacola, Fla., farm for years. "Cockfighting is cruel," Hogan wrote. "It's not a sport. And it's not something a champion like you should be involved in."

 

Hmm. What an interesting champion for the cause of anti-cockfighting.

Cockfighting sounds like a tight sport. They need to base a cockfighting show out of some South America country where no one cares, and run it on Spike TV. I know I'd watch.

Lily is a wuss.

Why isn't this Surreal Life 4? A Hogan reality tv show would be the #1 show on cable.

Cockfighting pretty much fucking rules. Usually I'm feeling for the humane guys, but when I was in Thailand and the Philippines, cockfighting was a number of shades of awesome. As are Muay Thai fights in a dirt circle.

You won't have to wait long for that.

Some Senator in Alabama or somewhere wants the roosters to wear miniature boxing gloves.

The cockfighting arena I went to in the Philippines was quite awesome. Shitloads of betting going around and everybody getting into it. It was like watching Bloodsport, except with roosters.

I still can't believe that Hogan is the authority on what is or is not conduct unbecoming of a champion.

That would be the most bizarre pro-wrestling related story on any other week, but, well, Warrior opened his mouth.

No....ITS SPORTS ENTERTAINMENT!!

If this all concludes with the Hulkster knocking down Roy's door and finding a cock fight going on, beats up the guys staging it, then takes out Roy with the big boot and legdrop, then poses on his front lawn to "Real American", I'm all for it.

Looks like we've found the way to save boxing.

JONES / HOGAN

The knockdown in cocktown!

 

And yes, I freely admit the catchphrase sucks. That's what Don King is for.

Hogan's just mad because Lilly didn't get a "Cocklemania" payoff for her last fight and she refused to job to some up and coming roosters insisting she "cock-up" like in her prime years. Needless to say she'll be back when Roy Jones Jr. calls up Hogan to induct Lilly in the Hall of Fame where she'll strut around and soak up the cockadoodledoos from the crowd, pecking her way to another huge payoff...

A Hogan reality tv show would be the #1 show on cable.

But it wouldn't be as big as a reality show for Warrior.

 

Call it Warrior Nation and have him drive around the country in a van.

If he stops at random places and does speeches, I'm there.

Add in special guest Gary Busey and we are looking at an Emmy.

If he stopped by certain spots in San Fran, that would make him the most hated/loved man on television.

 

It's amazing that a man that is so against homosexuality and so for family values really has no religious beliefs to speak of. If anything, he mocks others with such beliefs, at least other wrestlers.
