Pat Mahomes Sr.’s shouting match with fellow ex-MLB pitcher John Rocker was one of the more confusing and unexpected beefs nobody expected.

Pat Mahomes Sr. and former MLB player John Rocker got into a confrontation on Bourbon Street during Super Bowl LIX week, and social media has been going crazy.

Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy said in an interview that Rocker and Mahomes Sr. are expected to fight in a future Rough ‘N’ Rowdy boxing event.
“That’s a factual rumor,” Portnoy responded when asked by vlogger Adan Glyn if the two were pegged to compete at the boxing event. “I think it’s 100%, but I haven’t seen the signed paperwork yet.”
