NFL legend Tom Brady and wrestling star Logan Paul have been beefing for several weeks now, in the buildup to their eventual meeting for a matchup in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

That matchup will feature the seven-time Super Bowl winner and WWE superstar competing in a special flag football event alongside other NFL stars and skilled athletes. However, the promotional efforts in the lead-up to the event have been entertaining and have also led to the announcement of a fight between an NFL player and Paul.

The brash social media influencer and wrestler fired back at Brady after the former New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers star called him a "b***h" in a video that also featured Brady's former teammate, Rob Gronkowski.

However, Paul didn't simply aim his clap back at Brady. He also called out any NFL player interested in putting on some boxing gloves to go at it with him in the ring, claiming he would easily defeat them.

With Paul's challenge out in the open, more than a few football stars stepped up to accept his offer, with the most notable being Le'Veon Bell, who seems set to fight with him.

An announcement via Bleacher Report on social media on Friday previewed the anticipated matchup, including stats such as their age, height, weight, and reach.

Brady took notice of the big reveal and took to his X (formerly Twitter) to react, simply writing "Is this my fault?" and adding a crying-laughing emoji.

Along with that, he included a GIF of actor and comedian Adam Levine with "WHOOPSIES..." on the screen.

Bell was among those reacting to Brady's message, replying, "lol it lowkey is your fault" with several crying-laughing emojis of his own.

Brady initially started the feud between him and Paul while appearing on Paul's "IMPAULSIVE" podcast at a Fanatics event. During their chat, Brady referred to WWE and wrestling as "cute" but said Paul wasn't ready for what football involves athletically.

That riled up Paul, who shot back with some of his previous accomplishments, but Brady didn't back down and, more recently, doubled down with his "b***" remarks about Paul. It was then that the social media influencer and WWE star issued his bold fight challenge in another video rant.

If the fight is between him and Bell, it will follow specific guidelines: 10-ounce boxing gloves, no headgear, and three-minute rounds. The first person to quit loses the fight, which Paul indicated is worth $1 million to the winner.
