Kyle Busch Get Celebrity Boxing Offer After NASCAR Fight Video

After their fight during the aftermath of the NASCAR All-Star Race on Sunday night, NASCAR Cup Series drivers Kyle Busch and Ricky Stenhouse Jr. have received an offer to settle their differences in a Celebrity Boxing match.

According to TMZ Sports, Celebrity Boxing founder Damon Feldman went public with the invite Monday, saying: “Come on NASCAR, let’s make this the biggest deal in the country!”

While Busch and Stenhouse were jostling for position during the second lap of the All-Star race, Stenhouse hit the wall and was done for the night.

Stenhouse made it clear that he was looking for a fight, as he parked his car in Busch’s pit stall and had words with Busch’s crew members.

After the race was over, Stenhouse was standing behind Busch’s hauler waiting for him, which led to a heated exchange. It was escalated even further when Stenhouse threw a haymaker, leading to a chaotic scene with team members attempting to break it up:

Per TMZ Sports, Stenhouse said following the melee that he would be open to facing Busch in a celebrity boxing match if proceeds were to go to charity, saying: “I would do that. … That would be fun.”

It is fair to wonder if Busch would be interested as well, especially given how frustrating this season has been for him.

The 39-year-old Busch is one of the all-time greats and a future Hall of Famer with two NASCAR Cup Series championships and 63 Cup Series race wins to his credit.

However, the 2024 season has been a struggle thus far, as he has yet to win a race or even a stage over his first 13 starts, and is a pedestrian 13th place in the standings.

Stenhouse, 36, hasn’t had a banner year either, as the 2023 Daytona 500 winner is 26th in the standings with no wins and only two top-10 finishes and one top-five result.

Given that NASCAR didn’t shy away from showcasing to the world that Busch and Stenhouse got into a fight, perhaps it would have interest in facilitating an eventual Busch vs. Stenhouse boxing match due to the added buzz it would likely create for the sport.
