Earlier this week, Justin Bieber confused us all when he tweeted "I wanna challenge Tom Cruise to fight in the octagon. Tom if you don't take this fight your scared and you will never live it down. Who is willing to put on the fight?" going so far as to tag UFC president Dana White. When approached about the challenge by TMZ reporters, the pop star did a little backpedaling.
"It was just a random tweet," he said with a smile in a video published by the outlet. "I just do that stuff sometimes."

He also acknowledged that if the fight did end up happening, the 56-year-old actor, who's known for doing his own stunts, would probably win.

"He'd probably whoop my a-- in a fight," Bieber quipped. "I'd have to get in some good shape. I'm really skinny right now. I think he would be out of my weight class. He's big, you know? He's got that dad strength."

We're still waiting for Cruise to address the challenge, and honestly would love to see what would happen if he accepted. Watch Biebs laugh off the tweet here.
