Rio Ferdinand is yet to make his professional boxing debut - but he has not been short of offers.
The former Manchester United and England captain is currently preparing for his first fight.
And on Saturday night he was called out by YouTube sensation KSI after his white-collar victory over fellow internet star Joe Weller.
KSI - real name Olajide William Olatunji - said: "I've got this belt now, if any YouTuber want it they can come and get it.

"Jake Paul, Logan Paul; any of the Pauls, I don't care.
"Where's Rio? Where's Rio Ferdinand? I know he's doing his Betfair thing.. if you want some bro, I'm ready."
The fight was immediately priced up by bookmaker Sky Bet with Ferdinand the early 8/15 favourite and KSI offered at 13/8.
And if the fans' reaction is anything to go by, the fight would be a hit...
