Soulja Boy and Chris Brown to fight in boxing match

Music stars Soulja Boy and Chris Brown are set to go head-to-head inside the boxing ring later this year in Las Vegas.

The duo will fight in March, with boxer Floyd Mayweather behind the event's organisation. Its poster reads: "Put the guns down...and put on the gloves."

Mayweather will coach Soulja Boy while Mike Tyson has been tapped up to provide support for Brown. The music stars have been engaged in something of a feud recently, with Mayweather telling Hollywood Unlocked that the ring is the best place for the duo to sort their problems.

He said: "I think the best way to resolve any problem is to do it the old school way. Physical. The guys can’t come to a resolution by communicating, so they should do it physical with the gloves on. I think it will be really entertaining. I think Soulja Boy is an unbelievable entertainer and so is Chris Brown. I think a lot of people want to see those two come together and make an explosion.”
