While the first NFL Sunday of the season is here, two former NFL running backs competed in a different way on Saturday night.
Le’Veon Bell and Adrian Peterson fought in a five-round boxing match that went the distance. Neither is that far removed from playing in the league, so both entered the fight in great shape with similar measurements.
Bell entered the fight as the favorite, and while Peterson’s athletic ability has always stood out on the football field, it was Bell who came away victorious in the boxing match,
The former Steelers and Jets running back knocked out Peterson in the final round of the fight.
