Mark Cuban Wants To See Famous Faces Get Pummeled

Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban may be aspiring to buy the Chicago Cubs, but his side projects might be even more interesting. He’s currently working with Mario Lopez to develop a series of celebrity Mixed Martial Arts fights. Hopefully there’s a TMZ division.

Cuban said he is studying the concept of staging a Fighting With the Stars.

“We actually have been working on it with Mario Lopez for late ‘08,” Cuban said via e-mail… “Not a done deal, but Mario has a ton of great ideas and is working to put it together.”

The thought of “accidentally” giving Mario Lopez a roundhouse kick during a match would be enough to risk taking a pounding from some reality-show reject.
