Ravens' Zbikowski Dares Ocho Cinco To Step In Boxing Ring

PrintIn a war of words, I'd never bet against the Cincinnati Bengals WR Chad Ocho Cinco. However, he might have crossed the line and the only way out of this one might be to chicken out or receive a solid beating at the hands, or gloves of Baltimore Ravens safety Tom Zbikowski.
Zbikowski laid down the dare to Ocho Cinco to step into the boxing ring and put his mouth where his....mouth is. Number 85 replied that he was too fast for Tommy and it wouldn't be competitive. Zbi not only said he would let Chad get a taste of the ring for 45 seconds and then make him taste what a jab feels like. Next, he 'tweeted' a serious offer for Ocho Cinco to box him for charity, saying he and his promoter, Top Rank Boxing, would gladly set it up in May with more than enough time to heal for Training Camp.
Zbikowski is fighting this Saturday night in Las Vegas on the undercard of the Miguel Cotto-Ricardo Mayorga match. This will be Tom's 2nd professional fight, although he has fought 90 times as a Golden Gloves amateur.
Count me in as a definite if this fight ever comes to pass, as it could open the doors of so many interesting "fantasy" boxing matches to settle on the field differences off the field and in the boxing ring. What other matches would you like to see between opposing NFL players?

Thumbs up from me
I like it! I’d much rather see Chad doing something more constructive versus being on reality TV establishing fake relationships with even faker women. But that’s just me. lol Plus I’d expect Zibby to take the W.
I’m sure Chad has some skill when it comes to boxing, however I can guarantee that once Zbi lands the first punch on his face, Chad won’t know what to do. I could see Chad swinging for the fences from the beginning and tiring himself out while Zbi just toys with him for 2 rounds until he lands a 2 punch combo and knocks Chad’s gold teeth out.
The guy stands no chance, it is quite comical that he would embarrass himself like this.
"If only Flacco could put up numbers similar to Matt Ryan, or maybe just improve his stats year-to-year, he wouldn’t seem like such a wasted draft pick. It’s as if a young quarterback needs to put up better stats in his first three years than nearly every other quarterback to play in the NFL to justify a first round pick." - Amp
I’d like to see round two of Ngata vs Big Ben.
Matt Hasselbeck against Cromartie could be fun after Matt’s little jab about Cromartie not knowing what CBA even stands for.
I don’t think there is one player in the NFL who could beat Ngata in any sort of fight.

Ngata eats children…..that’s all I have to say.

I guess it would be fair to say
put Vick in there against tougher “dog” and then electricute hime or do whatever he permitted to be done to those poor dogs.

Toughest players on the Ravens?
Ngata on defense and perhaps Oher on offense? Toughest by position? Hmmm,…sounds like an upcoming post….

I bet Cundiff has some viscous kicks.

Haha. Does he have the Ginger power or wuss gene. Hmmm. With that mug, I’m going he’s got the wuss gene.
Ed Herman from the UFC has the bad ass ginger gene.

Yea right. Janikowski would be hammered drunk and Billy would give him the Sweet Chin Music to the face.

I am surprised that fool even got double digit votes. Even Bengals fans have think he will get knocked out.
