Nolan Ryan: Forefather of Dirty Boxing?
MLB.com has video up of the infamous brawl between Texas Rangers Hall-of-Famer Nolan Ryan (46 at the time) and former player and now manager of the Chicago White Sox, Robin Ventura (26 at the time).
Just thought some fight fans who may've been too young to remember this, would appreciate it. Score one for the old guys.

“Sometimes these things happen in baseball”

What I saw was a possible accident but of course Ventura didn’t see it that way so he charged the mound. And you know your boy don’t play that bullshit, threw down the gloves and said “Come at me, bro” and was able to stuff the takedown. Ventua tried to use his vicious man-strength Ryan said “Not a-DAY, Junior” and was fishing for a judo throw. But he wasn’t able to slip in the whizzer so he went for plan b was for the old school headlock punches until the dugout came through.
Anyone catch someone trying to take down Bo Jackson or was he just being Bo Jackson and trying to put someone down?
