While no one was asking for it, it seems that someone is giving it to us anyway.

Bjpenn.com is reporting that former UFC champion Ken Shamrock is set to take on world champion boxer James Toney at a yet to be named fight card on September 23rd in El Paso, Texas.

This is the second professional MMA fight for Toney, who lost his UFC debut to Hall of Famer Randy Couture back at UFC 118 in August of 2010.

Toney was released from his UFC contract shortly after the bout.

Shamrock was a participant in the first UFC event and has become a legend in the sport, known for his battles with Royce Gracie and Tito Ortiz.

Shamrock is also coming off a long layoff, fighting for the first time since a loss to Mike Bourke back at a King of the Cage event in November.
