Its hardly embarrassing as in 2013 Bob Sapp is totally irreverent and everyone knows that whenever he now fights he will just turn up, take a dive and then collect his paycheck. Which is what he will continue to do as long there are plenty stupid MMA and kickboxing promoters who are willing to pay him 20 to 40k to just turn up,take a dive and collect his paycheck. Well it's embarrassing no matter the year. I hate too see Sapp squandering his potential, but at least he's getting a good paycheck out of it. Well even if did take MMA seriously in all likelihood he would still be fighting soup cans in Europe and Asia. Also hasn't be burned his bridges with all the big wrestling promotions in Japan ?

I don't recall him burning bridges, but it wouldn't surprise me. What's the deal with that though/ How did he burn 'em?

Whenever I hear Bob Sapp, I'm obligated to post this. Oh man, I remember this song. I was drinking a Capri-Sun once when it came on shuffle, I laughed and nearly choked to death.

I feel Sapp would of been another big time WCW guy if the company didn't die out in 01. If it lasts until 02-03 I think Sapp is a multi time US Champion and getting a look in at the World. Former NFL Player (Although nothing significant) and a trained MMA guy with that size is gold. I very highly doubt that. Sapp, while monstrous, has absolutely horrible cardio. Sapp would never be able to wrestle a decent 10-15 minute match in WCW to even have a shot at earning a title shot.

Usually, if a guy loses 5 matches in a row, they'd call it a career. This really is embarassing.

Well maybe it isn't so bad as he does the odd mid card match for NJPW from time to time but from what I herd his whole not giving a shit while fighting and bailing from events over pay hasn't done himself any favors since the popularity of both pro wrestling and MMA has declined since Pride went out business.

I'm surprised Ray Sefo isn't trying to book him as a future opponent for himself in WSOF at this point

I will give Sapp credit though, he's man enough to parody himself. When he did his one shot for DDT I remember the skits they did to hype it being amazing. With them finding him in a cardboard box and wearing a King Harley Race style cloak/cape, and believing himself to be the undisputed champion of the universe or some crazy shit similar to that effect.

12th loss in a row? I guess video games can't be trusted.
