As everyone was bringing in the new year with laughter and celebration, hip-hop artists Chris Brown and Soulja Boy decided that they wanted to bring in the new year in a different way. Soulja Boy and Chris Brown officially have become the first artists to beef for the year, and bring a very big one at that. According to complex.com and many videos from both artists' Instagram accounts, the beef started when Soulja Boy said that Chris Brown wanted to fight him because he liked Chris brown's ex-girlfriend's picture on Instagram. Soulja Boy then took to Twitter making an announcement about the alleged conversation that he and Chris Brown had, which led to everything spiraling out of control.

After several days of Soulja Boy Tweeting about Chris Brown and saying that he would "Knock his B...h A.. out," Chris Brown finally took to Instagram with a response where he challenged Soulja Boy to a boxing match. While all of this was happening, Chris Brown's ex, Karrueche, decided to put her two cents into the conversation when she commented under one of Soulja Boy's videos saying" that they both should grow up." Chris Brown then shot back at her "telling her to mind her own business and take the little fame that she was getting with class." (He, of course, had much more to say but I will leave a link for you guys.)

Now, not only are these two celebrities going to have a boxing match which is scheduled to be on Pay-Per-View in March, but both celebrities are being trained by professional boxers. Soulja Boy was the first of the two to announce that Floyd Mayweather Jr. would be training him for the match, and when other celebrities such as 50 Cent heard this, 50 decided to reach out to his friend Mike Tyson to have him train Chris Brown for the fight. Mike Tyson happily agreed to train Chris for the fight while laughing and telling 50 Cent "that Soulja Boy was going to lose." Since then both celebrities have been training for their fight, and while they are still trash talking over social media, we will see who comes out on top in the ring.

My personal opinion is that this is just a publicity stunt for both celebrities, but whether it is real or fake, I am pretty sure that I can speak for a lot of people when I say that these two better be ready to throw their hands in the ring. I cannot wait to see what this fight in March is going to look like and I truly hope that it actually happens.
