Georges Laraque reportedly set to box Mike Tyson

According to former NHL enforcer Georges Laraque, the big man is set to square off against living legend Mike Tyson in a sanctioned boxing match.

Um... excuse me!?!

According to Laraque himself, he has been negotiating with Tyson's camp and is "75% of the way there" to scheduling a box match between himself and The Baddest Man on the Planet.  

On Montreal's 91.9 Sports radio Laraque said, “Things are moving forward, things are moving forward very well, on Wednesday I will be able to provide more details. We are at about 75% of the way there.”

The bout would reportedly be a sanctioned exhibition event in Tyson's run up to his match against Roy Jones Jr. I have to say... if this is true then watch out Big Georges. There's no denying Laraque is a tough guy and, in fact, one of the toughest players to ever lace up the skates. The problem though is that he won't be fighting on skates... he'll be fighting in a ring. Against Mike Tyson. Enough said. Laraque can throw a punch and take a punch... but we're talking about Mike FREAKING Tyson here. C'mon, Georges...
