Anyone who ever wanted to see Zlatan Ibrahimovic get his head boxed off could be in luck

Two beasts

Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Sebastien Chabal on a French TV show called ‘The Bastards’. Essential viewing.

Two of the biggest sporting icons in France [one a Swede, the other a beast] stepped into the boxing ring at the weekend, and all in the name of comedy.

The PSG striker gloved up and squared off against the retired French rugby star for a popular entertainment show called ‘Les Enfoires’ on Sunday night.

The comedy skit involved Ibra and Chabal facing off against each other during a weigh-in.

The sketch should air in the coming days so we will post a video as soon as it surfaces.

Judging from this weigh-in snap, our money would be on Chabal, although Ibrahimovic is pretty proficient at taekwondo.
