Jack Black has challenged actor Steven Seagal to a fight in order to help hin establish his credibility in the ring. The King Kong actor stars as a Mexican Wrestler in his new film Nacho Libre and feels fighting seagal would help toughen-up his reputation. He explains, " I just felt it might be good to prove my mettle if I could take down a real fighter.
I could go and wrestle with screech (Geeky Saved By The Bell character) but that wouldn't get me any points, so i wanted to take down someone real. Steven Seagal is a real trained fighter, but he has gained a lot of weight lately. Nacho versus Steven Seagal-that would be A really good publicity stunt !"
