Lenny Dykstra is Going to Fight Jose Canseco LIVE ON THE INTERNET!

Published:
I honestly thought Lenny was still in jail.
From the files of ridiculous comes the following story. Jose Canseco, who was originally scheduled to fight Tarek Salahi, the White House crasher, as part of a celebrity boxing publicity stunt will now square off against… Nails.
From the perfectly crafted press release (although, in the Dykstra Zone, I believe pretty much anything crazy he says): [BusinessWire.com]
“Canseco ruined my career by spreading lies. I called Tareq and begged him to let me take his place in the upcoming fight against Canseco,” said Dykstra in a statement.
Salahi obliged. But he will still take part in the evening’s events, fighting Kato Kaelin in one of the six undercards to the big Canseco-Dykstra showdown.
Just look at this card, it’s like a Who’s who of Who isn’t:
