Baseball's overgrown sweetheart will take to the boxing ring again, this time facing former child actor Danny Bonaduce.

Joes Canseco is set to step into the ring, January 17, 2009, against the "Partridge Family" star.

Bonaduce is fresh off of a decisive victory over dinosaur comedian and Howard Stern Show regular; the Reverend Bob Levy.

According to an article posted on philly.com, Bonaduce says that knocking out Cansaco will be easy; "The bigger they are, the harder they fall," boasts Bonaduce. "Think of what Mike Tyson used to do to bigger guys. That's what I'm going to do to Canseco."

In Canseco's last fight, he was knocked out by former Philadelphia Eagles return man Vai Sikahema As posted on ESPN.com:

Sikahema, who is also a sportscaster, has some experience in the ring. He has had more than 80 fights as an amateur boxer, according to the Press. Canseco said he had a background in martial arts.

Sikahema knocked Canseco down twice -- once with a left hook, and the second after a flurry of punches -- as the bout was called before the end of the first round.


Canseco was recently picked up by a Boarder Patrol Unit near San Diego, and was found carrying human chorionic gonadotropin, a drug that is used to restore testosterone production in former steroid users. It's illegal in the United States, unless given by perscription.

Call us naive, but why would Canseco be using a drug that helps promote testosterone production in former steroid users? Did Canseco actually use steroids? This could open up a whole can of worms! Could you image what would happen if Canseco was using steroids while playing in the Majors? Gosh, that would be a nightmare...What if Canseco was using, and he wasn't the only one?!?! Someone should look into this.....
