Justin Bieber Is Still Talking About Fighting Tom Cruise

Justin Bieber continues to discuss his hypothetical fight with Tom Cruise, which has been ongoing since last year.
He's convinced he would beat the Top Gun star: "Phenomenal shape doesnt mean youre a good fighter," he says.
When can we stop talking about this and start watching it actually happen?

Remember way back in summer of 2019 when a very clearly bored Justin Bieber, out of nowhere, decided to challenge Tom Cruise to a fight in the UFC Octagon ? Lucky you: that story is back. In the latest episode of Carpool Karaoke, the Bieb appeared alongside James Corden, who asked about the challenge; he also apologetically told the singer that he would take the side of the Top Gun and Mission Impossible star.

Bieber didn't take kindly to the assertion that he would lose. Im trying not to let my ego get in the way, but theres absolutely no way, he said. [Cruise is] not the guy you see in movies. Thats a character Phenomenal shape doesnt mean youre a good fighter.

Not letting his ego get in the way is apparently easier said than done for the singer, who just last week released his latest album, Changes. In discussing why and how he would beat Cruise in this still-extremely-hypothetical fight, he ran through some standout factors about himself: he's "dangerous," his "agility is insane," and he's "the Conor McGregor of entertainment," whatever that means. An interesting reference tooBieber used to be friends with one of McGregor's rivals, Floyd Mayweather, before the two had a very immature and very public falling out .

Earlier in the conversation, Bieber confirmed the genesis of the Cruise situation to be exactly what we thought it was: he was very bored. I dont know, I was just being stupid, to be honest, he said, showing a surprising level of self-awareness. But people were like, I want to see this happen, and I was like, You know what? That could actually be funny.

I wanna challenge Tom Cruise to fight in the octagon. Tom if you dont take this fight your scared and you will never live it down. Who is willing to put on the fight? @danawhite ? Justin Bieber (@justinbieber)

But the question remains: will it actually happen? Well, we've heard nothing still from Cruise's end. But UFC President Dana White has said that he would be willing to host the fight, and he also claims that Cruise would be in . So what are we waiting for? Let's get this show on the road.
