Verbal karate

Allegedly, Axl Rose (of Guns N' Roses fame), once challenged Bob Guccione Jr. - son of 'Penthouse' founder Bob Guccione to a fight. This was supposedly done in the song: "Get in the Ring".

The story goes that loud-mouth Rose was mad at Guccione Jr. - then owner of 'Spin' magazine because he was: (quote) "Rippin' off the fu****' kids payin' their hard-earned money to read about the bands."

Poor old Rosey was obviously unaware that Guccione Jr. had trained full-contact karate for about ten years - and that he was more than happy to "step in the ring".

Needless to say the singer chickened out, being called "a cowardly dirt man" by Bob Jr.

Welcome to the jungle!
