The return of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/logan-paul" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Logan Paul</a> to the ring may be closer than expected. The YouTuber and WWE star recently launched a $1 million challenge for a boxing fight, and a former NFL star has reportedly agreed to face him under controversial rules.



Following the media success Jake Paul has achieved in boxing, his older brother Logan wants to follow a similar path. Now, he has reportedly selected his next rival: former <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/pittsburgh-steelers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Pittsburgh Steelers</a> star Le’Veon Bell.



Shortly after announcing a $1 million challenge to any NFL player who could beat him in a boxing match, Logan Paul was approached by <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/leveon-bell" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Le’Veon Bell</a>, who quickly accepted the challenge. However, the rule set for the fight has shocked many fans.



<h2>Logan Paul vs. Le’Veon Bell: Is the fight happening?</h2>



On X, Le’Veon Bell and Logan Paul went back and forth with direct warnings toward each other about a potential boxing match. At the end of the exchange, the influencer received the controversial rules the former running back wants for their bout.



Bell indicated that he is willing to match Paul’s bet and create a $2 million purse for the winner. However, the former NFL star stated that he wants the fight to continue until someone quits, meaning there would be no exact round limit.



Paul immediately responded and accepted the terms, adding that the bout would use 10-pound gloves, no headgear, and three-minute rounds until someone cannot continue. The influencer also revealed that he would be willing to face Bell as soon as next weekend.

<h2>Tom Brady weighs in on Logan Paul vs. Le’Veon Bell</h2>



The situation surrounding Paul wanting to fight an NFL player may have started with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/tom-brady" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tom Brady</a>. A few weeks ago, Brady told the YouTuber that their upcoming flag football match would prove Logan is not at the same level as NFL players.



“Is this my fault?” Brady replied to an X post by Bleacher Report announcing the potential bout between Paul and Bell. “Yes, but you about to make me $2M,” the influencer responded, suggesting he expects to defeat the former running back in the contest.

Le’Veon Bell played his last season in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> in 2021. Nevertheless, the experienced running back is ready to return three years later, as he is preparing for a comeback with a surprising AFC team.



Le’Veon Bell’s career has seen its share of ups and downs. The running back was once regarded as one of the most promising players in his position while with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/pittsburgh-steelers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Steelers</a>, but some poor choices quickly changed this situation.



Bell refused to extend his contract with the Steelers in 2018, which marked the beginning of the decline. Since then, he has been unable to find stability with another team, and he has not been part of the league since 2021.



<h2>Le’Veon Bell wants to play for the Steelers again</h2>



It seems like Le’Veon Bell has acknowledged his mistakes. In 2018, the running back decided not to play the season due to a contract dispute with the Steelers. The team moved on, but the player couldn’t find the right path afterward.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" use="ALSO" link="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-leveon-bells-heartbreaking-apology-to-all-steelers-fans-20230718-BUS-30872.html" image="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https%3A%2F%2Fimages.bolavip.com%2Fwebp%2Fen%2Ffull%2FBUS_20230718_BUS_30872_Leveon-Bell-Pittsburgh-Steelers-NFL-2017.webp&amp;width=200&amp;height=200" excerpt="In 2017, Le&apos;Veon Bell chose to part ways with the Pittsburgh Steelers due to a contract dispute with the team. Six years later, the running back has issued a heartbreaking apology to all the club&apos;s fans.
" title="NFL News: Le&apos;Veon Bell&apos;s heartbreaking apology to all Steelers fans" publication_id="BUS#20230718#BUS#30872"></div>


Bell played for four different teams since leaving Pittsburgh. His final season, in 2021, was with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/tampa-bay-buccaneers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Buccaneers</a>, but he only had eight carries for 18 yards. Nevertheless, he’s ready to make an epic comeback, hopefully with the Steelers.



On social media, Bell revealed that he wants to return to the NFL, but only to play for one team. The running back said that he will try to be physically ready to help this club succeed.



“I won’t start training until like March,” Bell said, via Sports Illustrated. “I’m gonna be honest with myself, I got to go out there and be like, I’m going to put my foot in the ground. Do I feel it? Am I hurting? Can I go out there and really play again? And bro, I’m telling you all right now when I go out there and train in March and if I hit April and I make this decision to come back to play in the NFL again, mark my words down — I will be better than I ever was. And I will only come back for that one team. You all know who it is. I don’t have to say no team. You all know who it is.”



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="572" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/05/28121224/LeVeon-Bell-Pittsburgh-Steelers-NFL-2018-1024x572-1024x572.webp" alt="Le&apos;Veon Bell - Pittsburgh Steelers - NFL 2018" class="wp-image-4750" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Le’Veon Bell – Pittsburgh Steelers – NFL 2018</figcaption></figure>



Even though Bell didn’t explicitly mention the Steelers, it is clear that he is referring to them. Recently, he apologized to the organization for the contract dispute he had with them in 2018 and has stated multiple times that his biggest mistake was leaving Pittsburgh for money.



<h2>Should the Steelers give Le’Veon Bell a second chance?</h2>



Although Bell wants to make his NFL comeback with the Steelers, the team has the final say in this matter. It seems like the running back doesn’t want a lucrative deal, but now money may not be the main problem to sign him.



As of today, the Steelers have two very good running backs in Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren. If Bell wants to join the team, it appears he would have to accept being the RB3 behind them.

The offseason has been brutal for running backs lately compared to how it was in the past. This year, in particular, showed how much value running backs lost, as multiple megastars at the position didn’t receive the contracts they wanted, which is something that Le’Veon Bell knows very well.



On Monday, many talented playmakers crossed the franchise tag deadline, meaning they will be playing under one-year contracts. The cases that took everyone’s attention were <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/saquon-barkley">Saquon Barkley</a> and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/josh-jacobs">Josh Jacobs</a>.

Now, the running back has explained the controversial free agency decision he made.
" title="Dalvin Cook explains controversial free agency decision" publication_id="BUS#20230714#BUS#28799"></div>


Bell is no longer in the NFL due to a clear decline in his performance over his last couple of years as a player. However, he was in a similar situation as one of the best running backs in the league when he was with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/pittsburgh-steelers">Pittsburgh Steelers</a>.



<h2>Le’Veon Bell compares the RB market to “A bug’s life”</h2>



His role in the offense back then was something that Barkley and Jacobs can identify with. He was a huge part of the unit, but the team gave him the franchise tag instead of the long-term contract he wanted. Bell was criticized for sitting out in 2018, especially because he was never the same afterwards. However, he experienced the reality of the running back market.



“Disney a LONG time ago (1998) taught me a valuable lesson about sticking together, go watch ‘A Bug’s Life’ … it’ll put in perspective the running back market. The running backs are the ants. I’m Flik (The Inventive Ant) I took ALL the damage from the grasshoppers (Owners). At the time, no one could see my vision or what I was standing for but all I was doing was just preparing to go against the grasshoppers/owners, but as a lone inventive ant/RB, I obviously couldn’t beat the grasshoppers/owners alone. In 2017 &amp; 2018 I was the lone ant, I was Flik. it was literally ONLY ME. Fast forward 6 years later, now you have multiple ants trying to join the fight against the grasshoppers. Once Flik helped the other ants realize that there are more of US (ants) than it is of THEM (grasshoppers/owners) they finally defeated the grasshoppers. Ants are STRONG AS F- together! Very weak when they are individuals”, Bell posted on his Twitter account.

Maybe he does not figure out in the Pound for Pound best fighter’s list, but it is impossibleto deny that <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jake-paul" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jake Paul</a> is on the main conversations about <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/boxing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">boxing</a>. His popularity outside the ring, and his ability to transform his fights into a whole marketing experience, make many want to crossfire with him.
The ProblemChild<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/the-most-memorable-fights-between-boxers-and-mixed-martial-artists-20211218-0021.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">has just knocked out Tyron Woodley</a> on his last bout withabrutal punch on the sixth round. This was his fifth victory on the same number of professional fights. A nice start to Paul’s boxing career but it is true that he has not still fought a real boxer: 1 Youtuber, 2 mixed martial artists, and 1 basketball player.
Inthis line, it could not be weird to see Jake Paul sharing the ring with another non-boxer. In fact, he has just received a surprising challenge of asportsman that is willing to prove himself on theSweet Scienceand states he could be a real test for Paul.

<h2>The possible new rival for Jake Paul</h2>
Directly from the yard, Le’Veon Bell has raised his hand to meetThe Problem Childin a ring. The 29 years old <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NFL</a>player stated on Twitter that Paul’s rivals arequite inadequate to practice boxing, and expects to get a chance to prove that his capabilities go further beyond football.

Not satisfied with this statement, Bell threw another power punch to Jake Bell on the same social media: “I’m tired of watching him out box ppl who don’t even wanna box…if he wanna boxing match, a real one, he’d fight me…period, stop fightin small dudes who can’t box“.
After being selected by the Pittsburgh Steelers on the second round of the 2013 draft, Bell moved to New York Jets in 2019. This maneuver turned him into the second highest paid running back in the NFL with a signed 35 million guaranteed contract.
At present Le’Veon Bell is a free agent: Baltimore Ravens signed him in 2021, but he just played 5 games and was officially released on November 16. Could he be a real menace for Jake Paul even if he has never stepped into a professional boxing ring?
