Jose Canseco is pumped up for his debut in mixed martial arts even though he’s not sure what he’s getting into. The former Oakland A’s slugger, who boxed former “Partridge Family” child star Danny Bonaduce to a draw in a celebrity match in January, is fighting 7-foot-2, 330-pound super heavyweight Hong Man Choi, right, of South Korea tonight in Yokohama, Japan. “I’m not gonna lie to you, I’m scared. This guy is huge,” Canseco said Monday. “I’m a 44-year-old rookie.” Organizers are expecting a sellout crowd, which undoubtedly is hoping to see the former “Bash Brother” get bashed.
