Gordon Ramsay Will Face Bobby Flay in an Epic Cooking Battle

Two of the world's most popular celebrity chefs will finally take the stage together for one of the most intense live cooking battles of all time. It'll be right up there with UFC 200 -- but with way more deadly weapons.

Gordon Ramsay announced at Vegas Uncork’d that he and Bobby Flay will do a cooking throwdown where herbs will fly (probably) at the end of this year, but he didn't provide many details on the match-up. Ramsay only confirmed that it's happening, proclaimed his respect for Flay, and then, in good Ramsay fashion, mentioned that he "Can't wait to beat his ass," according to the quote in Refinery29. 

FoodBeast's Isai Rocha managed to capture some of the announcement and posted it on Instagram:

Obviously, there are still a lot of questions to be answered surrounding this event, but one thing is for sure: Ramsay will lose his temper at least once.

Put your bets in now.
