Haggis Hijinks: Cody’s Knockout Pub Fiasco!

Fighter profile of Cody Shelton by Big Jo

 Edinburgh, Scotland – This Friday afternoon, the orderly routine of a famous pub in the heart of Edinburgh was abruptly interrupted by an incident as unusual as it was entertaining, involving none other than Cody Shelton, the undefeated fighter from the LEGION OF DOOM.

In a lively atmosphere reminiscent of the best lighthearted brawls, Cody was enjoying a glass of Scotch whisky at “The Thistle & Thane” pub. While discussing fighting strategies with a few regulars, the pub owner issued an off-the-cuff challenge: an impromptu haggis slice tossing contest… Yes, you read that right!

Armed with his legendary humor and the reflexes of a boxer, Cody seized the opportunity to demonstrate that his talents aren’t limited to the fighting ring. Defying the laws of gravity (and taste), he nimbly dodged flying haggis slices, performing genuine Muay Thai-style dodges between sips of his drink.

Eyewitnesses report that the 27-year-old fighter, renowned for his lightning-fast KOs, literally transformed a simple joke into an impromptu stunt show. Every time a haggis slice seemed to be heading his way, Cody returned the favor – or rather, the slice – with such precision that it had the crowd bursting into laughter. It was only after several minutes of this unscripted performance that a respectful silence fell over the room, in admiration of the champion’s dexterity and sportsmanship.

In true gentleman fashion, Cody then invited the pub patrons to join him in a toast celebrating friendship and Scottish traditions, marking a moment of pure conviviality. The owner, delighted to have staged a challenge that will go down in “The Thistle & Thane” annals, even promised to create a “Cody’s special haggis slice” for the menu – a recipe infused with spices and good humor.

The incident, now nicknamed “the haggis strike,” has already become the talk of the town and an unforgettable meme on social media. Between laughs and memorable moments, Cody Shelton once again proves that whether it’s in the ring or a Scottish pub, he always manages to bring his unique brand of mischief and stir the hearts of sports enthusiasts – and food lovers alike!
