The scheduled fight between Patrick Mahomes Sr. and John Rocker has reportedly been intercepted by Brittany Mahomes.
Barstool Sports Founder Dave Portnoy revealed Friday that Brittany has caused the brawl to be canceled.
Portnoy said on “The Unnamed Show” that Mahomes Sr.’s son, Patrick Mahomes, and his wife, Brittany, essentially intervened to call off the fight.
According to Portnoy, just a few days after his “Rough N Rowdy” promotion announced the Mahomes vs. Rocker contract, people close to Mahomes stepped in and stopped things.
“This fight’s canceled,” Portnoy said. “… They came to us to do this. How would we ever come up with this concept? Like, let’s put John Rocker and Pat Mahomes Sr. [in the ring]; who would ever think of that? They came to us, said they hated each other, and wanted to fight. Devlin [D’Zmura], who does the Rough N’ Rowdy, was like, ‘Yeah, if they wanna fight, let’s do it.’

Patrick Mahomes Sr. Reveals Fight With John Rocker Was Staged

Patrick Mahomes Sr., the father of the Chiefs quarterback, made major headlines when a video emerged of a squabble with former baseball player John Rocker on Bourbon Street in New Orleans.
The biggest issue with him is that he is currently on probation after a third DWI. That fight would’ve violated the terms of his freedom.
To avoid that, he made sure to inform the court earlier this month that the fight was a staged promotion for an April boxing match with Rocker at Barstool’s Rough N’ Rowdy.
The contract he signed was shown to the courts for proof.
Mahomes Sr. confessed that the incident with Rocker “was a staged altercation to get publicity for [a] celebrity boxing match that was set to take place in April 2025.”
Now, we know that the staging of the fight will lead to nothing since the fight is now off.

The Philadelphia Eagles beat Patrick Mahomes so badly that he had to change his hair completely.
After the Super Bowl loss, the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback stunned fans with his new hairstyle. The Mahomes Mohawk is gone.
This week, it was revealed that Mahomes was sporting a new hairdo, and it was proven when a picture showed him in attendance at his grandfather’s funeral.
This is quite the change since Patrick Mahomes’ hairstyle is so recognizable that it has even helped him get a Head and Shoulders shampoo commercial.
No word on what will change from that.
One of the more pressing questions is what Nebraska Cornhuskers quarterback Dylan Raiola will do going forward.

Per The Kansas City Star:
“This is my last year with the hair,” Mahomes told Stroupe. “The hair is gone next year. I’m going different hairstyle (than) this year. … I almost did it this year but Head and Shoulders would have been mad. I can’t have two kids and a Mohawk.”
Stroupe asked: “Why not?”
“Cause I gotta be a dad at some point, know what I mean?” Mahomes responded. “Imagine being 40 years old with this haircut. I mean, come on.”
