LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) - FOX has cast Ron Palillo ("Welcome Back, Kotter's" Horshack) and Dustin Diamond ("Daved By The Bell's" Screech) as opponents in its upcoming encore installment of "Celebrity Boxing."

The two actors join the existing match-ups of John Wayne Bobbitt vs. Joey Buttafuoco; William "The Refrigerator" Perry vs. Manute Bol; and Darva Conger vs. Olga Korbut that will compete on the show.

Palillo is best known for his portrayal of "Sweathog" Arnold Horshack on the popular sitcom "Welcome Back, Kotter" from 1975-1979. More recently, Palillo appeared as a recurring character on "Ellen."

Diamond, aka "Screech" in the long-running teen comedy series "Saved by the Bell" and its various spin-offs, made his mark on popular culture with his portrayal of the world's nerdiest high school student. Diamond most recently appeared in the feature films "Big Fat Liar" and "Made." In addition to his acting career, Diamond works as a stand-up comic.

Produced by Dick Clark, "Celebrity Boxing 2" will air on May 22 on FOX.

Manute Bol is fighting the Refrigerator Perry too.

Oh my god.. Manute is really gonna get hurt. I don't care if he can kill a lion with a spear, Fridge is gonna break him in half.

The Fridge vs. Manute Bol. That is going to be hilarious. I saw the Fridge on NFL Toughman and he was going crazy for the first 30 seconds. Then he couldn't breathe the rest of the fight.

I have $100 on Manute, he will destroy The Fridge. What is The Fridge going to do punch Manute in the knee's?

I got this from Lordsofpain.net. Looks like Bobbitt is out, and Chyna is in...

Today on Good Day on KDFW, Dallas, TX, they announced the next Celebrity Boxing contestants. One match was originally scheduled to be Joey Buttafuoco against John Wayne Bobbitt. However, this past week, Bobbitt was arrested and apparently they have found a replacement fighter to face Buttafuoco. As reported it will be Joanie Laurer, or as they called her - the name she'll never escape - "Chyna". According to the official Celebrity Boxing site ( http://www.fox.com/boxing ), the next show will air Wed. May 22 @ 8:30 PM Eastern. The official lineup has not been posted yet.

Manute will win simply because the Fridge can't reach to hit him in the chest, let alone his face.
