I know this is stupid and unbelievable but I had to post it so every Bengals fan could read this nonsense.

A man who claims he witnessed the fight between Bengals tackle Levi Jones and Dolphins linebacker Joey Porter has come forward to describe what happened, and he has quite a tale to tell to WTAE-TV.

"They were throwing down," said [the witness]. "They must have each gotten in a good three or four swings. Then all of a sudden, the bigger guy who I found out later was Levi Jones, picked up Joey Porter and tossed him probably 10 feet like he was a rag doll.... Joey Porter broke free and ran full sprint at Levi Jones and dove through the air at him like he was trying to tackle Ladanian Tomlinson. Took him down with a tackle, then the two of them got up. They were throwing fists again. It sounded like a 'Rocky' movie."

Pro Football Talk was a little skeptical of those details, and so am I. After all, Porter wasn't hurt at all and Jones suffered only a minor cut. And Porter was cited for a misdemeanor, and police took no action against Jones. If it really had been that violent, wouldn't it result in more injuries and more charges? Still, it sounds like a heck of a battle. I hope a Vegas security camera caught it and it eventually makes its way into the public eye.

Have you ever seen "Every Which Way but Loose"? You can punch a man for two hours and nothing happens to him.
