Breaking Bad is one of the most creative and successful dramas to hit mainstream television. It is known for having some of the most interesting plots and most talented actors. Apparently, though, there is a sports loving side to the actors of Breaking Bad that goes unnoticed. Recent reports suggest Lavell Crawford, a.k.a Sal's security guard Huell, is an MMA fan. Also, it was previously determined that the main man himself, Brian Cranston, is a die-hard Dodgers fan.
True, Lavell Crawford is most well known for his part on AMC's meth-based powerhouse, but he made appearances in It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia and Tosh.0.
Crawford is also and accomplished stand-up comedian.
According to TMZ Sports, when Lavell isn't on the set of a hugely successful franchise, he is kicking it at his local gym and laughing about Rampage Jackson:
"Breaking Bad" star Lavell Crawford knows funny ... even when funny can kick the living crap out you -- 'cause he thinks Quentin "Rampage" Jackson is the most hilarious fighter in the world. Crawford was at Gracie Barra Ju-Jitsu in Los Angeles [when] the veteran stand up comedian [commented on] which MMA fighters make him laugh ... intentionally or not: 'Rampage Jackson's the funnies cause he's stupid...he be knocking down doors and sh*t.. that's funny...'"
Crawford isnt the only Breaking Bad star to turn out to be a sports nut. According to ESPN, Brain Cranston highly reveres the L.A. Dodgers:
"I grew up with Dodger Stadium. It was my home...even when times were rough or things not going well in school or my parents splitting up or whatever the case may be. I could always depend on the smell of the grass, listening to Vin Scully's voice to bring back a sense of calm and safety. And it was that to me. It represented something, a touchstone, that was always there that I could always go to in times of trouble, and it was there for me."
