Quite sad.
Spectators cheered as entire Cambodian Midget Fighting League squared off against African Lion
Tickets had been sold-out three weeks before the much anticipated fight, which took place in the city of Kâmpóng Chhnãng.
The fight was slated when an angry fan contested Yang Sihamoni, President of the CMFL, claiming that one lion could defeat his entire league of 42 fighters.
Sihamoni takes great pride in the league he helped create, as was conveyed in his recent advertising campaign for the CMFL that stated his midgets will "... take on anything; man, beast, or machine."
This campaign is believed to be what sparked the undisclosed fan to challenge the entire league to fight a lion; a challenge that Sihamoni readily accepted.
An African Lion (Panthera Leo) was shipped to centrally located Kâmpóng Chhnãng especially for the event, which took place last Saturday, April 30, 2005 in the city’s coliseum.
The Cambodian Government allowed the fight to take place, under the condition that they receive a 50% commission on each ticket sold, and that no cameras would be allowed in the arena.
The fight was called in only 12 minutes, after which 28 fighters were declared dead, while the other 14 suffered severe injuries including broken bones and lost limbs, rendering them unable to fight back.
Sihamoni was quoted before the fight stating that he felt since his fighters out-numbered the lion 42 to 1, that they “… could out-wit and out-muscle [it].”
Unfortunately, he was wrong.

An African Lion much like this is responsible for the death of 28 Cambodian Midgets

And the Most Retarded Idea of the Year award goes to...
That's actually really sad. Why would his "Fighters" agree to the fight? Did they really think they could beat a lion?
I wouldn't even want to see 42 full-sized fighters take on a lion...

All that carnage for a fake trophy? Someone should sue someone else.

People-meat wouldn't be good for the lion-we're too fat. Even most slim people have more fat than an impala. It's kind of depressing to know that you aren't a good meal for a big predator...

The worst thing about the internet: provides a neverending stream of amusing stories, unfortunately, they are all false. The only joy to come from stories like these is that some one somewhere, will become completely outraged and go on the news and complain about it.
So many good ideas (midgets vs. lions, bonsai cats, paintball hunting naked women), but no one ever follows through. I am saddened.

Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!

 that would have been 42 very stupid fighters had it been true, amusing story anyway.
Besides I see a lion totally capable to win against 42 unarmed men...
