Chad/Akebono is providing an opportunity to laugh at himself which is a nice change from simply being laughed at (re: as the diaper-clad pro-wrestler or hapless K1 fighter).

Dolph's Super Happy Terrific Karaoke-Karate Extravaganza looks like a serious attempt to look cool and appears to be launched from the mind of a daydreaming 10 year old boy.

I'd say both of these guys are moving up in the world....I mean, what more can you say about a guy whose career highlight was getting the bejeezus pummeled out of his Commie ass in Rocky 4?
As for Makebono, the picture tells 1,000 words....

That image has been photoshopped into dozens of interesting situations. Even a "makebono.com". Gawd...

In this shot, he looks like he's getting a bit of Miss Japan action....I wouldn't be surprised if that's not his next crass attempt at getting a fistful of yen. Probably need a John Holmes type co-star (or Borat's prosthetic...) to reach through the cavernous cracks, though.

Why is his song called "Gree!"?
