Dada 5000 is a martyr because he died fighting for what he believed in

I love him. He's a martyr. I love him. He's a martyr. He died fighting for what he believed in.

Whether someone is a martyr is a matter of personal opinion, though Dada 5000 did technically survive the encounter.

Beating death in the ring is the same as beating Jesus

You mean to tell me the nigga lost the Kimbo Slice but beat Jesus? ... If you beat death, that's beating Jesus. Like, Jesus died for our sins, right? So, technically, anybody else that dies, it's because Jesus died, too. So, like, I say that puts you right above Jesus.

Theologically and factually absurd, but delivered as a bold sports take.

Mickey Ward would beat Butterbean in a prime-versus-prime fight

In their prime? I'm going to have to go with Mickey Ward. ... Mitchell Rose knocked Butterbean's ass out. Mitchell Rose got more losses than you got fingers and toes. His only win was when he knocked out Butterbean... I done changed diapers tougher than Butterbean.

This is a hypothetical matchup between two real fighters that can never be settled in reality.

50 Cent lied about winning the Golden Gloves

50 Cent is so much of a fan of boxing. First of all, he lied and said he was a fighter. 50, you said you won the Golden Gloves. You came in New York City, came up where I came up at. I won the Golden Gloves every time I fought in them. I know everybody around here. 50, you did not fight in the Golden Gloves.

While 50 Cent was a junior amateur boxer, there is no public record of him winning a Golden Gloves title, supporting Kelly's claim.

Janet Jackson is selfish for canceling her tour to have a family

She cancels her fucking show because she says she wants to have a family, and she wants to concentrate on that with her husband. ... Selfish. She cancels her show for some dick. ... Not only did she cancel her show, she didn't refund her fans the tickets that they bought.

Jackson did delay her 'Unbreakable' tour in April 2016 to plan a family. The refund status varied by venue, though many were rescheduled rather than canceled immediately.
