Former MLB pitchers John Rocker and Patrick Mahomes Sr. got into a heated argument in New Orleans, Louisiana this past weekend during Super Bowl week, nearly coming to blows. Days later, and now the two appear poised to box inside the ring this spring.

According to Dave Portnoy of Barstool Sports, Rocker and Mahomes Sr. will fight at a Rough N’ Rowdy event on Friday, April 18 in Wheeling, West Virginia. Ahead of this potential boxing match, Bookies.com veteran oddsmaker Adam Thompson put together hypothetical betting odds for the fight.

John Rocker vs. Patrick Mahomes Sr. Boxing Odds

Fighter Odds
John Rocker -400
Patrick Mahomes Sr. +250

Odds above are projected by Bookies.com and are not currently available at legal sportsbooks or betting apps.

Starting with Rocker, he is 50 and was last listed at 6’4” and 210 lbs. During his MLB career, he was known for his fiery attitude. He also competed on the reality television show Survivor. As for Mahomes Sr., the father of NFL superstar Patrick Mahomes is 54 and was last listed at 6’1” and 175 lbs. We don’t have reach measurements, but we can assume Rocker is slightly longer.

As for how a boxing match goes, both men were tremendous athletes who each played at the highest level of professional baseball, but the boxing ring is a much different story. Given Rocker is younger, taller, and heavier, he is the -400 betting favorite in Thompson’s betting odds.

There is a lot of bad blood between these two men dating back to their baseball-playing careers, so this fight should be fun for as long as it lasts. Look for both men to come out swinging in a fight that is unlikely to go the distance, with Rocker being the odds-on favorite to get the win.
