Tommy Lee vs. Kid Rock Battle Being Increased to $5 Million

Las Vegas Entertainer Jeff Beacher Ups the Ante for Rockers

Even if you have been sleeping under a rock these past two weeks, you still would have heard about the Kid Rock and Tommy Lee fight at the MTV Video Music Awards. You would have also learned that about a week ago, Jeff Beacher, the man who was voted by Rolling Stone "The Best Showman on The Strip," had put out an offer for the two to fight in the ring for a $1 million dollar winner-takes-all grand prize. Beacher was quoted by New York Post's Page Six as saying, "What better way to settle their differences then to slug it out in the ring!"

Beacher's initial $1 million dollar offer did not go unnoticed by the boxing elite. Beacher has just teamed up with legendary boxing promoter Bob Arum, now offering the winner of the fight $5 million.

Beacher says, "I've teamed up with legendary boxing promoter Bob Arum and we raised the prize to $5 million. Who better than to partner with than the great Bob Arum to promote this fight and make it a reality! Mr. Arum has put together great fights such as Sugar Ray Leonard vs. Marvin Hagler and Evander Holyfield vs. George Foreman. The sky's the limit on what we can do together with this event."

Beacher's Madhouse is a popular playground in Las Vegas for young Hollywood and mega-celebrities alike.
