You know why this video is so stupid? It’s not because these two guys decided to actually settle a dispute over a parking spot by agreeing to box each other. And it’s not because the people behind them were (rightfully) laying on their horns, a sound that I hate with the passion of 1,000 fiery suns. And it’s not even because half of the video was recorded sideways.

This video is stupid because neither of these schmucks had the brains to immediately cheat and kick the other guy in the balls and then shove him into a pile of trash. That’s how you win a fight, and that’s how you get that motherf-cking parking spot.

Want to watch Mike Tyson emerge from a pack of cheerleaders and do boxing-themed dance moves in a James Bond tuxedo with Doogie Howser? Of course you do.

I can’t say I’m an avid watcher of the Tony Awards. My cousin Brad won a Tony back in 2010 for being in the cast of ‘Memphis’ and I appreciate anything Trey Parker’s doing, but aside from that the show sorta slips through my radar. That said, the Tony Awards can enjoy a forced thrust into sports blog relevancy by including a reference to Mike Tyson’s one-man show (and Mike Tyson) during Neil Patrick Harris’s big opening number. Here’s what you need to know: Mike Tyson is not great with choreography, but he’s trying, bless his heart.

I’ve included the song below with a helpful jump edit to Tyson’s cameo, but feel free to rewind and watch the entire thing if that’s your bag. It’s got everything you’d want from a blockbuster show opening number … magic tricks, circus acts, child actor dane routines and catty bagging on the film version of Les Miserables. FUN FOR EVERYONE.

Because they’re monsters. Get it.

This week, Sports On TV looks at the 10 greatest sports moments from the hit 1964 sitcom ‘The Munsters,’ about a family of Universal Monsters who live in a creepy old mansion and try (and mostly fail) to interact with the normal people in their community. Sure, it’s the Go-Bots to ‘The Addams Family’s’ Transformers, but it was a fun show and a great example of 1960s sitcom joy, and come on, I know at least one of your parents loved this and made you watch it. Hopefully the same parent who made you watch ‘The Brady Bunch.’

If you’ve never seen the show, check out the list anyway, because it is all about a Frankenstein making life difficult for strangers. The list features appearances from Hall of Fame baseball players, legendary MMA instructors and a drag racing coffin that Rob Zombie made famous to a new generation. So yeah, click through to enjoy the 10 greatest sports moments from ‘The Munsters.’ And don’t forget to unlock our commenting badge while you’re at it.

When Broadway star and pigeon hero Mike Tyson showed up on camera at Saturday night’s UFC 160 PPV, some people wondered why the heck the former boxing champ was there, while most of us just assumed that it was because he wanders around Las Vegas during his downtime and sometimes happens to stumble into major venues. But he was actually there to hang with his bro and UFC legend Chuck Liddell, whose protégé Glover Teixeira won his fourth straight fight since joining the UFC with a guillotine choke submission of James Te Huna.

Little did we know that Tyson would end up playing a major role in some decision-making that night, as he helped TJ Grant earn an extra $50,000 for the Knockout of the Night prize. Grant scored a first round TKO over Gray Maynard by simply overwhelming him from the get-go, but Dana White and Lorenzo Fertitta were convinced that Junior dos Santos deserved the extra cash for his third round KO of Mark Hunt.

That’s when Tyson stepped in and said, “Thith is ludicrouth.”

Floyd Mayweather, Jr. recently defeated Robert Guerrero to retain the WBC Welterweight title, win the vacant The Ring Welterweight title, improve to 44-0 all-time, and possibly also shut Ruben Guerrero’s mouth once and for all. But more than anything, the victory helped keep Mayweather’s nickname, “Money”, relevant because for the second consecutive year, Mayweather is projected to be the highest-paid American athlete.

According to Sports Illustrated’s Fortunate 50 list, Mayweather beat out LeBron James, Drew Brees, Kobe Bryant and Tiger Woods, among others, to top this year’s list, as he will make an estimated $90 million by the end of the year. What’s amazing about that total is that not a single penny of it comes from endorsements.

But seeing that list reminded me of something that a friend recently passed along to me. If Mayweather doesn’t make any money from endorsement deals, does that mean that he allowed his image to be used in this delightful porn ad for free?
