    Haaland gives hilarious response when quizzed on potential boxing match against Mbappe

    Erling Haaland, the standout player from Manchester City, responded with a humorous remark when questioned about the possibility of a boxing match against his Ballon d’Or rival, Kylian Mbappe.

    Both athletes have garnered significant attention for their exceptional performances in the 2022-23 season, and they are considered to be the foremost talents of their generation. The speculation surrounding their potential face-off for the Ballon d’Or title is palpable. However, in a playful exchange, Haaland was asked about their hypothetical boxing match during an appearance on WWE sensation Logan Paul’s ‘Impaulsive’ podcast on YouTube.

    With a chuckle, the Norwegian football star brushed off the question, asserting that he prefers to communicate with words rather than using his fists.

    Paul’s co-host Mike Majlak asked Haaland: “Could you ever see yourself stepping into the ring and going up against like [Kylian] Mbappe or just not anybody specifically…”

    Haaland tried to play it safe and responded while laughing: “No… I’m not, I’m not really into fighting uh, to be honest. I prefer just to speak so no not really no not really.”

    Erling Haaland, recently honored as the recipient of the 2022-23 PFA Player of the Year award, has built a reputation for his exceptional on-field skills rather than confrontations. Remarkably, he has seldom engaged in altercations with opponents during matches, and notably, he has never received a red card throughout his entire career.

    Now, Haaland’s focus will shift back to his forte: finding the back of the net. Manchester City is set to return to action on Saturday, facing Fulham in a Premier League match. As he steps onto the field, Haaland will aim to continue showcasing his goal-scoring prowess, contributing to his team’s success in the league.
