Vai Sikahema Knocks Out Jose Canseco

Vai Sikahema knocked out Jose Canseco at the War At The Shore in Atlantic City.

Jose Canseco was "struck out" in a different kind of way Saturday night. The former baseball player participated in a charity boxing match at Bernie Robbins stadium.

Canseco's opponent, Vai Sikahema knocked him out in the first round of the match. Sikahema is a former player for the Philadelphia Eagles.

The match was called after Sikahema knocked Canseco down twice in the first round.

The prize for the match was $5,000.00 for the charity of the winner's choice. Sikahema chose to give his purse to the family of Stephen Liczbinski, a Philadelphia police officer that was killed in the line of duty in May.

Despite the height advantage that Canseco had over Sikahema, it wasn't enough to secure the win. Canseco stands 6" 4' while Sikahema is 5" 9.

Sikahema remained positive about his chances, saying "When you step inside the square circle don't ever think that your size is going to matter because in Philadelphia, we will chop you down."

As it turns out he was right.
