Maybe not...
AllHipHop.com: This is old news, but can you recap the Hip-Hop boxing event that you, Freddie Foxxx, and Kurtis Blow and others were involved in. Its often talked about, but we want an official recap. Did you knock out Melle-Mel?
Willie D: Yeah. Thats accurate, Mel! What happened was, the organizers called us in Houston and said they were throwing a celebrity boxing match and wanted us to be a part of it. I was a part of it, Dope E from the Terrorists who got knocked the f**k out! Boy, Freddie Foxxx knocked Dope E the f**k out! That s**t was funny. He put his hands on him. Kurtis Blow put them hands on some mothaf**ka! LL [Cool J] was supposed to be in it. A lot of people was supposed to be there. Anyway, I remember bein backstage in the dressing-room. A reporter asked Mel how he thought the fight would go. Mel was tryin to be diplomatic and s**t, You know, Im gonna go out there, and try to have a good fight. Then they came to me, and I was doing some sit-ups. I said, First, he gonna come out and throw a couple jabs. Then, he gonna take off runnin. Imma hit him with a right, then hit him with a left. Hit him with a right, then a left. Hit him with a right, then hit him with a left. And he gonna get carried away. [laughing] Mel [laughed it off playfully].
We go out, they takin bets like in prison fightin. Me and Mel was the main event. Me and Mel get to the ring. The fight was sanctioned, so we had a real referee. We get to the ring, and I come out, and to be honest, I didnt go out to really knock anybody out. I was trying to put on an exhibition. We go out, and I throw a couple jabs. Mel come across my head with an overhead right and he raised me. The force that he did it with he was tryin to tear my ass off. The crowd [responded]. Off the bat, I said to myself, Its over. Get him outta here. The ref broke us up. I came back out again. I shot two jabs up to set it up. He fell for it. I caught him with an overhead right, and he went to sleep. I remember, they counted to ten, and Mel was still out. He was doing some Tweety-bird s**t. His eyes was crossed up. I forgot it was sanctioned, cause I asked the ref, Let him fight. I wanted people to get their moneys worth, and the fight just started. Get back over there! So I returned to my corner. Ten more second passed, Mel still aint up. Finally, he comes to eyes still crossed. One of his boys was like, Mel, its over. Mel said, Its over? Well, who got the belt? [laughing] Thats what he said! Clear as day, I remember that s**t. I already had the belt wrapped around my waist. Since then, me and Mel talked on the phone a few times. He still wants a rematch.
AllHipHop.com: Still got the belt?
Willie D: Its on the mantle.
shyt. Watching the video he was already back on his feet by 10 and stumbling around some. Far from being knocked cold.
