Ravens safety Tom Zbikowski and Bengals wide receiver Chad Ochocinco both appeared on "The Afternoon Saloon" on ESPN Radio 1000 in Chicago yesterday, and they engaged in a little friendly trash talk over the possibility of a charity boxing match between the AFC North rivals.
Zbikowski said last week that Ochocinco was the NFL player he would most like to box, and after Ochocinco fired back on Twitter, Zbikowski proposed a four-round match for charity.
"I’m getting my promoter to see if we can talk to his agent and maybe work out a deal for a fight," Zbikowski said at the start of yesterday's appearance. "I’ve got a fight Saturday and people are trying to book tickets for the fight against Ochocinco that’s not even

The hosts, John Jurkovic and Carmen DeFalco, somehow got Ochocinco on the line -- he was at an airport, of course -- and Zbikowski invited him to this weekend's bout against Richard Bryant at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
