CNN short timer Piers Morgan has challenged his archenemy, “Top Gear” host Jeremy Clarkson, to a charity fight:
Let's make this interesting @JeremyClarkson – £100k to charity for a 5-round bout at Wembley Stadium. Televised live. Loser pays.
— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) March 20, 2014
He talks a good game, let's see if @JeremyClarkson has the balls to walk it too. £100k charity fight – yes or no, Fatboy?
— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) March 20, 2014
Yes, I'm aware that my @JeremyClarkson duel could prove fatal. But hey, if he dies, he dies.
— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) March 20, 2014
Very “Ivan Drago,” Musket.
@piersmorgan @JeremyClarkson did you just quote Ivan Drago??? You know he lost in the end!
— Tiger Muz (@TheSquirrelGrip) March 20, 2014
Did “if he dies, he dies” come from the same Piers Morgan who’s always denouncing violent rhetoric?
Morgan later agreed to higher stakes:
Agreed. Let's do this. > RT @matthewcpinsent @piersmorgan @JeremyClarkson loser leaves twitter?
— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) March 20, 2014
So, is it on?

Unlike Morgan’s soon to be former show on CNN, there could actually be an audience for this fight, and the consensus seems to be a Morgan loss:

@JimiWalsh @piersmorgan @JeremyClarkson brilliant idea, I'd pay money to watch Clarkson pummel Morgan, #societyandcharitywin

There is no doubt in my mind Jeremy Clarkson would beat the living shit out of Piers Morgan
— BROD (@BrodyStopher16) March 20, 2014
@JimiWalsh the wee @piersmorgan would be destroyed by @JeremyClarkson ….Piers couldn't even combat Chelsea Handler with her words.

Clarkson has yet to respond to Morgan’s challenge.
Update: Shortly after we posted this, Clarkson did respond. Sorry, Piers:
I'm not going to box Piers Morgan. I'm too busy. But I know plenty of people in the British Army who'll gladly take my place.
— Jeremy Clarkson (@JeremyClarkson) March 20, 2014
Now seriously. Leave me alone. I've got a job to do.
