Former Steelers running back Le’Veon Bell and former Bengals linebacker Vontaze Burfict have a long history linked to Burfict’s tackle on Bell in 2015 that left the running back with a torn MCL.
Bell has not forgotten about the play that injured him involving Burfict, who was linked to various other plays in his career that led many to characterize him as a dirty player. Now, Bell wants to box Burfict to settle old scores.
“There is, it’s just that this person is not a boxer,” Bell said, after being asked if there was anyone he wanted to fight on the Misfits Boxing podcast. “It’s someone from football. They had purposely injured me. I don’t think I want to say the name, but people who watched my career when I hurt my knee, people know. Yeah, people know. I would love to put my hands on him in the ring.”
