\"\"<\/p>\n

So Justin Bieber issued a challenge to fight Tom Cruise in a cage match.<\/p>\n

Any way you look at this…<\/p>\n

\n

If Bieber did it for free publicity…<\/p>\n

If Bieber thinks Tom Cruise is a real fighter because of his movies…<\/p>\n

If Bieber believes he is a tough guy and wants to prove it by fighting Tom Cruise, an actor who is more than twice as old as Bieber…<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

…it is just plain stupid.<\/p>\n

If Bieber wants to prove he’s a tough guy, then he should challenge someone known for fighting like say, Nate Diaz.\u00a0 Nate would probably show up at any location for free if Bieber called him out.<\/p>\n

How could this get any dumber?<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nOh, boy.\u00a0 I shouldn’t have asked.<\/p>\n

So Conor McGregor, the former UFC Champion and now also a sports and entertainment promoter has offered to promote\/host the Bieber vs Cruise fight should it ever happen.\u00a0 If it wasn’t for the fact that McGregor is already known for saying outrageous things and looking for free publicity where he can get it, I’d say he should know better than to get involved in something so stupid.<\/p>\n

Well, at least McGregor didn’t go full on stupid and challenge an actor to a cage fight.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Are you kidding me?<\/p>\n

So McGregor has upped the ante and challenged actor Mark Walhberg to a cage fight?\u00a0 For my thoughts on this please refer back above to “Any way you look at this…” and substitute McGregor’s name for Bieber and Wahlberg’s name for Cruise.<\/p>\n

I also offer the same suggestion as to an alternate fight — McGregor should challenge Nate Diaz to a cage match.\u00a0 They’ve already fought twice with each man winning once, so a third time would make sense.<\/p>\n

Hey!\u00a0 I’ve got an idea: How about Bieber and McGregor fight each other?\u00a0 McGregor could promote it and each of them would get what they want.\u00a0 Bieber would get a chance to prove he’s a tough guy.\u00a0 McGregor would get to fight a celebrity.<\/p>\n

The reality is of course that Bieber would get knocked out.\u00a0 McGregor would be ridiculed for taking the fight and hardly anyone would tune in.<\/p>\n

You know I started by saying that Bieber challenging Cruise was stupid.\u00a0 I still think it is, but I will say this, Bieber is sure getting the publicity.\u00a0 \u00a0The news of his challenge is blowing up everywhere.\u00a0 Heck, in all my years of blogging, I’ve never mentioned Bieber even once.\u00a0 Yet today I’ve devoted a long post to him.<\/p>\n

Well played, Justin Bieber.\u00a0 Well played.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
