Not one to back down from a daunting challenge, LaVar Ball just upped the ante in his on-going feud with NBA legend, Michael Jordan.
After Jordan claimed that he could beat Ball 1-on-1 with only one leg, Ball went on a local radio show in Cleveland (H/T ESPN) to raise the stakes by saying that he could just as well defeat His Airness with just one hand:
“C'mon, I didn't even play basketball in the pros and they're talking about me and Michael Jordan. That's what I'm talking about. He tells me he can beat me with one leg. Well, guess what: I can beat him with one hand. Now we both look like we out there like we can't play.”
Ball's Big Baller Brand Twitter account also reiterated the handicapped challenge extended to the GOAT, going as far as wanting the showdown to be broadcast on pay-per-view for all the world to witness:
Michael, you vs Lavar | 1 v 1 | you with 1 leg, Lavar with 1 arm. Has to be on Pay-Per-View. Let's make it happen. YOU WON'T. pic.twitter.com/F5jw4Fu1l5

Talk about “one”-upmanships, eh?
With all the hype that Ball and Jordan are getting from their on-going spat, there's no question that the PPV for this lopsided clash will draw huge numbers. And while the proposed match won't be pretty at all considering that both men are well past their 40s and that each of them will be one limb short, it will certainly be a highly-entertaining and hilarious affair nonetheless.
Ball's confidence in the tweet above stating that Jordan will never make the pay-per-view happen also goes to show that he's winning the war of words right now simply with his brazen attitude. But should Jordan take the bait and make the match a reality, Ball better come out a winner to back his big mouth up and save himself from further humiliation because everybody knows this is MJ's contest to lose, even if he has to pogo-stick his way to victory.
