Apparently Chris Brown & Soulja Boy Are Going To Fight Each Other In Celeb Boxing Match

Why can't we all just get along?

Ding ding! Chris Brown and Soulja Boy are set to settle their differences in the boxing ring with a celebrity fight to the death... OK, maybe not *death*, but for $1,000,000.

Announcing the fight on his Instagram, Soulja Boy, who's apparently got the backing of boxing great Floyd Mayweather on his side, said: "It's going down! Signed my contract I'm leaving the fight with $1,000,000 I got the best ever my big bro @floydmayweather training me damn".

Apparently the beef all started after Soulja Boy liked and left a comment below a picture on the profile of Chris Brown's ex, Karrueche Tran. A social media fight ensued between the pair and now we're at the stage where actual fists will be thrown and superstar blood potentially spilled.

However, before posting the official announcement Soulja Boy yesterday uploaded an emotional, apologetic video in repsonse to it all upon learning his mother had been hospitalised, saying: "At the end of the day it's not about who started the beefs, it's about who ends them.

"So with that being said I found out that my mom's in the hospital. The doctor told me everything should be alright, said she'd be good but no amount of money, no amount of cars, no amount of fame will make me be alright you know when my mom's sick or anything happening to my mom. I love my momma, she's always been there since I was born, I got her name tattooed on my face and I know she's not proud of my actions and what I've been doing recently.

"I wanna make music with Chris Brown, Yachty, Quavo, everybody. So to all the media, to all the blogs, to all my homies from the hood who feel like I've been on some hot sh*t lately, I apologise I'm back to the music."

So thankfully it looks like this will all be fought in good humour. We don't have a date or venue for the bout as yet but apparently it'll be televised on pay-per-view.

Who do you think will win? Let us know by tweeting us @MTVUK.
