Adrian Peterson, Le’Veon Bell In Talks for Boxing Match, per Report

The next high-profile celebrity boxing match could involve two of the NFL’s greatest running backs of the last 20 years.

Adrian Peterson and Le’Veon Bell are reportedly in talks to face off in the ring at an event at Los Angeles’s Crypto.com Arena on July 30, as first reported by TMZ Sports. The 30-year-old Bell has been slated to participate in the event, but his opponent has not yet been announced.

Now it’s possible that he could be squaring off with the 37-year-old Peterson.

The two running backs are among the greatest of their generation with 10 Pro Bowls and six First-Team All-Pro nominations between them.
