Justin Bieber Challenges Tom Cruise to Battle in the Octagon

Last week Justin Bieber tweeted he wanted to fight Tom Cruise “in the octagon,” calling out Cruise directly: “Tom if you don’t take this fight your scared..”

No one was really sure if he was joking or not. Now there is a good chance it might actually take place. UFC Dana White is working behind the scenes to see it he can pull together this bizarre match up.

The main challenge is it is hard to make money with one fight on the card. You need multiple bouts to make it long enough to sell to pay-per-view. So White is talking to other movie stars to gauge their interest in fighting famous singers in the octagon. So far he is considering the following match-ups:

Lady Gaga vs. Bradley Cooper
Drake vs. Tom Hanks
Post Malone vs. Robert DeNiro
Ed Sheeran vs. Jack Nicholson
Harry Styles vs. Alan Arkin
Cardi B vs. Will Smith
Jaden Smith vs. Helen Mirren
Camila Cabello vs. Ryan Gosling
Taylor Swift vs. Leonardo Dicaprio
Billie Eilish vs. Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Eminem vs. Liam Neeson
Ariana Grande vs. Zach Galifianakis
Elton John vs. Scarlett Johansson

Any of those would be a great fight. Will it happen? I’ll keep you posted.
