WWE superstar and former multi-time world champion Bobby Lashley recently joined Alex McCarthy on Mail Sport for an in-depth conversation about his interest in fighting in a boxing match following his brief run in MMA. Check out what the Almighty One had to say about a boxing bout in the highlights below.
Says he’s been talking about doing another fight for a while:

Wants to do boxing:
