Ozzie Guillen Threatens To Fight Reporter Jon Heyman

Ozzie Guillen and NY post reporter Jon Heyman have had a long history of hating each other, but this week it went to the next level.

It all started when Guillen slammed White Sox manager, Tony La Russa, during the Sox postgame show earlier in the week.

The back and forth would end up resulting in Ozzie Guillen calling out Jon Heyman for a boxing match.

“Jon you hate me and always bad mouth me. Let’s settle it,” Guillen said. “Let’s raise money Jon me and you the ring. Whatever money we raise goes to charity. I am not perfect, but tired you hiding behind you a writer.”

Ozzie Guillen was the manager of the White Sox World Series championship team in 2005, and remains in good graces with the entire fan base.

Jon Heyman acts like Ozzie is out of line with his comments, but pretty much everyone in and around the game of baseball has been critical of Tony la Russa this season.

Obviously, we wouldn’t expect Jon Heyman to step in the ring with Ozzie Guillen, but it would be fun to watch.
