Former World Wrestling Entertainment star Bobby Lashley (2-0) has announced his next MMA fight.
Lasley, who appeared at TNA's pay-per-view card on Sunday at the Liacouras Center, will fight former NFL lineman Bob Sapp (10-3-1) on June 27 at the Gulf Coast Coliseum in Biloxi, Miss.
Lashley, an American Top Team fighter, announced the super-heavyweight fight with a Monday Twitter posting.
Lashley, who has defeated Joshua Franklin and Jason Guida in his first two pro bouts, will be giving nearly 100 pounds to Sapp, who was drafted by the Chicago Bears in the third round out of Washington and also played for the Minnesota Vikings.
Sapp, a huge mainstream star in Japan, is 5-1 in his past six MMA fights. He last competed at the Dec. 31 K-1 Dynamite!! show in Japan, where he defeated Akihito Tanaka by first-round TKO.
