Former NFL running back Le'Veon Bell has challenged social media personality turned boxer, Logan Paul, to a boxing match

PUERTO RICO: Le'Veon Bell, a seasoned former NFL running back who has now ventured into the world of boxing, has taken the bold step of challenging none other than the internationally acclaimed social media sensation and boxer, Logan Paul.

It was on a crisp Wednesday morning that Le'Veon Bell chose a modern platform to make his audacious proposition, reaching out to Logan Paul via Twitter with a challenge bound to redefine their careers.

Le'Veon Bell vs Logan Paul

Bell's proclamation arrives as a striking testament to his unwavering determination to explore new horizons. The NFL icon's transition from the football field to the boxing ring mirrors his dynamic journey of evolution and reinvention.

Having embarked on his boxing journey just last year, Bell exhibited his initial boxing prowess in a face-off against another former NFL running back, Adrian Peterson. This daring leap into amateur boxing took place on September 10.

Le'Veon Bell's journey into professional boxing commenced with a debut against former UFC fighter Uriah Hall, marking a notable leap into the combat sports arena.

Subsequently, he secured his inaugural professional victory in April against JMX, showcasing not only his adaptability but also his dedication.

Bell's direct tweet aimed at Logan Paul sparked intrigue and anticipation. He wrote on Twitter, "Lol you really can’t duck me forever @LoganPaul .. at some point you’re gonna have to see me in that boxing ring."

'You’d get smoked'

Le'Veon Bell's tweet challenging Logan Paul didn't resonate well with NFL fans. Opinions were divided, with some expressing skepticism about Bell's chances in a potential match against Paul.

They suggested that the YouTuber-turned-boxer might have the upper hand and even predicted a knockout victory.

On the other hand, some perceived Bell's challenge as a potentially desperate move to secure a high-profile and lucrative fight, leading them to question the authenticity of his intentions.

One user wrote, "You’d get smoked." Another user wrote, "Come to WWE Logan would work circles around you." Another user said, "You have the most one sided beef ever."

A fourth user wrote, "Went from one of the best running backs in the NFL to begging a youtuber to fight him so he can get money you HATE to see it."

A fifth user wrote, "Bro wtf happened to rapping football, then rapping, then boxing? Pick a single hustle to be mid at. Can’t be mid at all of them."
