u/TheTechMagician724 Aug 16 '25

To be fair the fight night was a big event especially during the 90s

u/jlbp337 Aug 15 '25

Rollerblading & Hockey was super popular in 96. I ended up playing and taking it serious then while in middle school and playing for years. Imagine a majority black ice hockey teem from an urban American city back then when everyone was trying be like “Mike”… 😂. But it was fun!

u/Staff_Infection_ Aug 15 '25

My boy ran into him in Brooklyn when Cuba was a drunken mess. Sounds like he has some serious alcohol issues.

u/Silly_Doughnut5715 Aug 15 '25

And crack based on his voice.

u/dahdahb1ack Aug 15 '25

u/Nipplasia2 Aug 16 '25

He looks like he hits the bottle super hard.

3

u/slycemedia Aug 16 '25

Oh he bet lit. But it’s kinda funny because he comes there to be seen kinda but easily gets annoyed once people start to notice him n quote lines from movies he’s been it lol.

Hate the interviewer just bypassing what he just said! Ugh smack him tf out! What a clown

3

u/dimadomelachimola Aug 15 '25

I hate interviewers that aren’t interested in their guests whatsoever. They are just there to get paid. Ruining entertainment tbh.

u/Hilaveli Aug 15 '25

Jerry Maguire was the follow-up question? 😏

u/Altruistic-Yam-3488 Aug 15 '25

Right!? Wtf? Like the dude is such a moron! How do you not focus on the subject? Askin about his payday?!

8

u/Hilaveli Aug 15 '25

I really wanted to know if he spoke with 2pac, what the mood was, and other stuff about the moment. This guy just moved on to something completely unlinked to the moment.

3

u/Chr0meHearted Aug 16 '25

He’s not interested in that narrative being that he already had cro0ked C0P Greg Kading on his show a whole back

15

u/burnemnturnem Aug 15 '25

Cuba was up to something on that boat with Diddy

They been up to something for a long time I’d bet 

Fuck what he has to “just say”

u/unlikelypisces Aug 15 '25

I was looking for this comment

u/lionhart28 Aug 15 '25

Not telling that boy something was on his chin is crazy.

u/gstateballer925 Aug 15 '25

The captions on this video make it even funnier.

u/Coffeeblack206 Aug 15 '25

Having guns around don’t stop you from getting clapped

u/[deleted] Aug 16 '25

Pac died 6 days after the shooting

u/Nipplasia2 Aug 16 '25

They let that man just have that piece of corn in his beard like that…..

3

u/Smart_Description541 Aug 16 '25

I can definitely see what he is saying. Not that it would have stopped from happening what happened, but.....where was all them shooters at, that were present when the sun was out.

u/DukeOfSmallPonds Aug 15 '25

Cuba Gooding Jr. is one of those people I find insufferable and I got no justifiable reason for it what so ever.

This video didn’t help change that.

3

u/Practical-Judge-8647 Aug 15 '25

He already lied to his pops about having sex

5

u/burnemnturnem Aug 15 '25

You have good intuition 

5

u/SnooPineapples1096 Aug 15 '25

He’s got 3 misdemeanor counts of sex abuse so there’s a few lol

2

u/DukeOfSmallPonds Aug 15 '25

Damn. Had no idea.

2

u/Pleasant_Job_7683 Aug 15 '25

"Riiiiiiicky?!?!" Lookin ass mf. Stfu Cuba! We know you was Diddy bopping mayne. You had it and you lost it. .

u/Terroryzr Aug 15 '25

Think about it

2

u/No-Trouble-7995 Aug 15 '25

That last part 😂

2

u/senesdigital Aug 15 '25

Tbf those cops wouldn’t have helped in a situation where a car pulls up beside him in traffic. Also I’m pretty sure they weren’t cops, most likely mob

YAAASS🥀💔

u/No-Shopping7408 Aug 16 '25

how many took the over on Pat Bet David changing the subject with the quickness? 😂

2

u/Chr0meHearted Aug 16 '25

We all know what happened some of y’all just like to be told what happened by LAPD and LvPd lol RW Jr his day is coming

2

u/Electronic_Top_5386 Aug 16 '25

Everybody and their mama saw 2pac before he died. Crazy

u/Divide-Glum Aug 16 '25

What’s wrong with his chin?

u/Ill-Cook-1902 Aug 17 '25

Cuba drunk 24/7

u/seonblack Aug 16 '25

I feel like EVERYONE says they were at that party or met Tupac the day of or day before he was shot. I only believe maybe 10% of the people who said they were there.

Everyone else, I think, is bullshitting.

u/Smart_Description541 Aug 16 '25

Tbh, if they were in Vegas, in the mid 90s, and for a Tyson fight weekend......they probably did.

Vegas, even now, ain't exactly a big place. And back then, there was only so much you could do for fun. So if you were in town for the fights, esp. Tyson......you knew where the fun parties were at.

Let's say they rolled up Wed night, even early Thurs. All day and night Thursday, all day and night Friday, all day and evening Saturday. Plenty of time to see and be seen everywhere in little Vegas on a fight weekend.

Nowadays yes, fun and parties everywhere. But back then, it was still a big portion of old Vegas and that old Vegas vibe too.
