god said knock you out!
ST. LOUIS—In a legal battle which may set precedents for divine intervention in sporting events for years to come, two boxers are suing one another over the right to claim that God endorses them in their upcoming fight.
Bantamweight pugilists Raheem "The Rapist" Rogers (left) and Diego "La Cucaracha" Sanchez (right) will appear in a St. Louis circuit court on Monday to plead their case before Judge Norman Shmermelstein. Rogers, a Muslim, claims that Allah wants him to beat Sanchez, a Catholic. Sanchez's lawyers say they have proof that the Virgin Mary appeared before their client a few weeks ago, predicting a TKO of Rogers in the fourth round.
Legal teams for both sides have subpoenaed God, whose lawyers have so far successfully fought against His extradition.
