The Sun obtained some exclusive video of Manchester United’s star Wayne Rooney and friend Phil Bardsley having a little impromptu boxing match in Rooney’s kitchen.
Like any sort of play fight between young men, it escalated a bit and Bardsley was able to catch Rooney with a clean left jab which knocked Rooney out cold, it seems. You can judge for yourself if you think it is fake, but it seems quite authentic.
The incident is rumored to have happened on February 22nd and just six days later Rooney netted two goals against Sunderland at Old Trafford.
