"Hey, this is Kurt Angle, I just signed on with Official Celebrity Boxing to referee in The Battle of the Italian TV Stars, Antonio Sabato Jr. and Joe Giudice in the Bahamas December 7," the WWE Hall of Famer said, making the big announcement.

Guidice and Sabato Jr. have some stuff in common. Both guys were born in Italy, and are 52 years old. They've also both made a career for themselves on television.

Joe and Antonio have both hit the gym hard ... and seem to be taking training seriously. In other words, they're ready to scrap!
When they do step foot in the ring, it'll be the first time for both. Giudice was supposed to fight Jennifer Lopez's ex, Ojani Noa, a couple of years back ... but Covid torpedoed the event.
The punches start flying December 7. One piece of advice to Giudice and Sabato Jr. -- listen to the referee, or risk finding yourself in an "Angle Lock!"
