The trend of former athletes getting in the boxing ring after leaving the sport continues, as Le'Veon Bell will take on former UFC star Uriah Hall in a boxing ring as part of the Jake Paul vs. Anderson Silva card on October 29 in Phoenix, Arizona.
Bell previously knocked out fellow NFL veteran running back Adrian Peterson on September 10 in Los Angeles, but that was an exhibition bout by the rules of California regulators. However he managed to score an impressive stoppage against one of the best pure athletes in the history of pro football.
Le'Veon Bell and Adrian Peterson had a boxing exhibition tonight. Bell KO'd Peterson in the fifth and final round.
