Lil Scrappy is the latest rapper to take his talents to the ring.

It seems like these days, a lot of rappers are putting the mics down, and putting their fist up – in a professional sense. Whether it’s boxing or wrestling, there are a lot of celebrities and rappers alike, who are trying their luck. Lil Scrappy is going the wrestling route and has a match lined up for later this month in Atlanta. Who will he be up against? A familiar opponent for him, Baron Black. I say familiar because Scrappy actually faced off against Black last month.

The Battle Slam Takeover will go down at the Oasis Event Center July 28. It sounds like it’ll be more than just a wrestling match, as it’s also being promoted as a hip-hop showcase. The Takeover will include a live DJ, live performances and of course, live wrestling.
