Adrian Peterson, the former NFL star known for his killer moves on the field, has found himself in a bit of a pickle off the field.
It turns out, his poker game rival, Joe “Baby Joe” Castaneda, has thrown down the gauntlet and challenged Peterson to settle their beef in the boxing ring.
Castaneda, who went toe-to-toe last month with the former Minnesota Vikings running back during a violent scrap over cards at a Houston, Texas social club — said this week if he were approached by some kind of celebrity boxing promotion to fight AP in a ring, he wouldn’t say no.
Castaneda told us it would require some kind of monetary compensation — but if the number was right, he’d have no problem mixing it up with Peterson again under some far brighter lights.
“I wouldn’t shy away from it,” the 47-year-old professional poker player said.
Unclear if Peterson, 40, would be down — but he does have experience in the celebrity boxing realm.
Remember, he once fought ex-NFL star Le’Veon Bell — though that tilt didn’t exactly end well for him.
Now, we all know Peterson is a force to be reckoned with on the football field, but can he hold his own in the boxing ring? Only time will tell. Will this showdown actually happen? Only time will tell!
